Bringing it all together
Installation
This appliance should be installed by a competent person or qualified electrician in a accordance with the
regulations in force (All relevant British Standard/ Codes of Practice/relevant Building/IET regulations) and in
a well ventilated space. Please read instructions before installing and using this appliance.
Important: - The power supply to the appliance must be switched o° before any adjustments or maintenance work
is carried out.
Installation of Built-in Ovens
In order to ensure that the built-in appliance functions properly, the cabinet containing it must be appropriate .The
figur below gives the dimensions of the cut-out for installation under the counter or in a wall cabinet unit.
The worktop and any associated hob should be fitted BEFORE installing this oven.
It is recommended that if installing a built-in oven directly under the hob then there should be a minimum air gap of
20 mm between the oven and the bottom of the hob. Failure to maintain a suitable clearance may impair the
performance of the hob.
Ensure that air can flow freely around the housing area. If the oven is being installed into a fully enclosed built-under
oven housing unit it may be necessary to cut a small slot in the top of the plinth fitted under the unit. Cut a sectio in
the centre of the plinth that is 400mm wide and 45mm deep to allow air to pass under the unit. Alternatively cut a
section 400 x 450mm in the base of the centre of the plinth.
Failure to allow adequate ventilation to the appliance may result in overheating or damage to adjacent units and could
invalidate the guarantee. Surfaces of furniture and walls adjacent to the appliance should be heat, splash and steam
resistant. All cabinet doors must be at least 4mm from the oven at all points.
Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to heat damage and discolouration.
When placing the oven in the housing, do not use the oven door or handle as a lever for lifting the oven as damage
may result. When you open the oven door, you will see 2 screw holes on either side of the oven where you fix the
oven to the cabinetry.
The oven should then be secured to the housing by fitting screw provided into these holes.

Oven functions
Defrost
Oven Light
Grill
Oven light -The oven light will operate on all oven functions.
Grill -This is the top heating element. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to
brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking the juices in to keep them tender. The grill
is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib
steak, fillets, hamburgers etc.
Fan grill -This function uses the fan to circulate the heat from the grill element around the food. This helps prevent
food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Excellent results are achieved
with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausages, ribs lamb chops, chicken in a spicy sauce, quail, pork
Fan Grill
chops, etc.
Convectional heat -This function uses the top and bottom heating elements. Natural convection creates a perfect
cooking zone in the centre of the oven, ideal for dark fruit cakes and pastries or a joints of meat.
Using your appliance for the first time
The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that you set the temperature setting to the
250 degrees. Set the cooking mode selection knob to fan assisted mode and leave the oven on for 40-60
minutes with nothing in it and the oven door shut. Then, open the oven door and allow the oven to
cool. Any odour that may be detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used
Defrost - When set to ‘Defrost’ mode, the fan located at the back of the oven circulates room temperature air
around the food. This is recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in particular for delicate
types of food which do not require heat, for example: ice cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit cakes, etc.
Fan oven-When set to Fan oven mode, the fan element and the fan operate providing a delicate heat
distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods on
multiple shelves, especially cakes that Swiss rolls and small portions of vegetables, etc.
By using ‘Defrost’ mode, the defrosting time is approximately halved.

General oven and cooking tips
General Oven Tips
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven.
Baking trays with food cooking on them should be placed level with the front edge of the oven’s
wire shelves. Other containers should be placed centrally. Keep all trays and containers away from
the back of the oven, as over-browning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended size of a baking tray is 340 mm (13½”) by 340
mm (13½”).
When the oven is on, do not leave the door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs
may get very hot.
Always leave 1-2cm between dishes on the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate freely
around them.
To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or
brush lightly with cooking oil.
Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking, place them on a baking tray.
Using the Grill
This multi-function oven has 2 different grilling modes.
Use the ‘Grill’ mode with the oven door closed, place the food on the center of the grill pan, insert
and fit the grill pan on either the 3rd or 4th shelf from the bottom. Note: only the central part of the
top heating element operates for grilling.
When using ‘Grill’ mode, we recommend you set the temperature to the highest setting. However,
this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply adjust the knob to the desired
temperature.
Use ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode with the oven door closed. This mode is very useful for grilling foods
rapidly, as the distribution of heat by the fan makes it possible not only to brown the surface, but also
to cook the bottom of the food. It can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking
process, such as adding that gratin finish to pasta bakes.
When using ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode, place the food on the 2nd or 3rd oven shelf from the bottom,
then place a dripping-pan on the 1st rack from the bottom to prevent fat and grease from dripping
onto the oven floor. We recommend you set the temperature to 200°c, as it is the most efficient
temperature for ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower
temperatures, simply adjust the knob to the desired temperature.
IMPORTANT: When using any of the oven functions you must cook with the oven door closed
including when using a grill function.

General oven and cooking tips
Baking cakes
When baking cakes, always place them in a preheated oven. Make sure you wait until the
oven has been preheated thoroughly (the indicator light will turn off). To prevent heat loss
and the cake from dropping, do not open the oven door during baking.
In general...
... if pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the cooking time.
... if pastry has dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
... if pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower shelf, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
... if cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
... if the pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper.
... if I used multi shelf cooking and one shelf is more cooked
Use a lower temperature setting next time. It is not necessary to remove the food from all
the racks at the same time.
For best results when cooking pizza:
Cooking pizza -Suggested Function
Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes.
Use a light aluminum pizza pan, placing it on the shelf supplied with the oven. Don’t use the
dripping pan since this will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust.
Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking;
If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend you add the mozzarella
cheese on top halfway through the cooking process.
For best results, only use one shelf at a time, but if you want to cook on two shelves, use the
2nd and 4th racks from the bottom with a temperature of 220°c and swap them halfway
through cooking.

General oven and cooking tips
Cooking fish and meat-Suggested cooking function
When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use a temperature setting from 180°C to
200°c.
For red meat that you want well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the
inside, it is best to start with a high temperature setting
(200°C-220°C) for a short time, then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on
the centre of the shelf and place the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat.
Make sure that the shelf is inserted so that it is in the centre of the oven. If you would
like to increase the amount of heat from below, use a lower shelf height. For savoury
roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.
