Condensation and steam
The oven is supplied with an exclusive system which
produces a natural circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam. This system makes it possible
to cook in a steamy environment and keep the
dishes soft inside and crusty outside. Moreover,
the cooking time and energy consumption are
reduced to a minimum. During cooking steam may
be produced which can be released when opening
the oven door. This is absolutely normal.
However, always stand back from the oven
when opening the oven door during
cooking or at the end of it to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
When food is heated, it produces steam in the
same way as a boiling kettle does. When
steam comes in contact of the oven door
glass, it will condense and produce
waterdroplets. To reduce condensation,
ensure the oven is well heated before placing
food in the oven cavity. A short oven pre-
heating (about 10 minutes) will then be
necessary before any cooking. We
recommend you to wipe away condensation
after each use of the appliance.
Hints and Tips
Using the Oven
Always cook with the oven door closed.
Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door.
Do not allow it to fall open - support the door using
the door handle, until it is fully open.
The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied
with two shelves. The shelf positions are counted
from the bottom of the oven as shown in the
diagram.
It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned as shown in the diagram.
Do not place cookware directly on the oven
base.
Attention! - Do not place objects on the oven base
and do not cover any part of the oven with
aluminium foil while cooking, as this could cause
a heat build-up which would affect the baking
results and damage the oven enamel. Always
place pans, heat-resisting pans and aluminium
trays on the shelf which has been inserted in the
shelf runners.
Cookware
• Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 230°C.
• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of
the oven, or placed on the oven base.
• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm (12
in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.
The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
AAluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
BEnamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.

The air inside the oven is heated by the element around
the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates
hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.
The advantage of cooking with this function is
energy saving through:
"Faster Preheating
As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is
not usually necessary to preheat the oven although
you may find that you need to allow an extra 5-7
minutes on cooking times. For recipes which require
higher temperatures, best results are achieved if the
oven is preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones,
souffles, etc.
"Lower Temperatures
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking
chart. Remember to reduce temperatures by about
20-25°C for your own recipes which use conventional
cooking.
"Even Heating for Baking
The fan oven has uniform heating on all shelf positions.
This means that batches of the same food can be
cooked in the oven at the same time. However, the
top shelf may brown slightly quicker than the lower
one. This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours
between dishes.
How to use the Fan Oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to .
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required temperature.
Things to note
• The oven light will come on when the oven function
control knob is set.
• The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
• The thermostat control light will remain on until the
correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on
and off to show the temperature is being maintained.
The cooling fan
During cooking the cooling fan will operate continually.
It may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the
controls cool. This is quite normal.
NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the
oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not
switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on
where the oven has only been used for a short time.

Hints and Tips
- Shelf positions are not critical, but make sure the
shelves are evenly spaced.
- When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven,
place dishes centrally on the shelves rather than
several dishes on one shelf.
- When the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly
longer cooking time.
- When the oven is full of the same food, e.g. equal
trays of small cakes or equal size victoria sandwich
cakes, then they will be cooked in the same time and
removed from the oven together. When different sizes
of trays or types of food, e.g. biscuits and cakes are
cooked, they will not necessarily be ready together.
- The fan oven can be used to heat foods through without
thawing first, e.g. fruit tarts, mince pies, sausage rolls,
and other small pastry items. Use a temperature of
190-200°C and allow 20-40 minutes (depending on
the quantity of food in the oven).
- The use of too high temperatures can cause uneven
browning. Check with the recommendations for oven
temperatures given in the cooking charts, but be
prepared to adjust the temperature, if necessary.
Remember to reduce temperatures by about 20-25°C
for your own conventional recipes.
- When roasting do use the trivet in the meat tin. Fat
and meat juices will drain into the meat tin below and
can be used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents
splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.
- The meat tin should not be placed on a heated
hotplate as this may cause the enamel to crack.

Hints and Tips
- Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill
pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift the food
out of the fats and juices. Food such as fish, liver and
kidneys may be placed directly on the grill pan, if
preferred.
- Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to
minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish lightly
with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist
during cooking.
- Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms
may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats
- When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner
position is used.
- The food should be turned over during cooking, as
required.
The grill element is controlled by the thermostat.
During cooking, the grill cycles on and off to
prevent overheating.

Cooking chart - Grilling
The chart is intended as a guide only and should be adjusted according to taste.
Cooking time depends on the thickness of the meat and not on its weight.
When roasting, ensure the meat is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer if preferred to check the centre
temperature has reached the required temperature (see table).
Cooking times in the tables do not include pre-heating. It is necessary to pre-heat the oven for about 10
minutes before cooking. We recommend to pre-heat the oven for about 10 minutes before cooking.

The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the
air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases
the speed of defrosting. However, please note that the
temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of
defrosting.
This function is particularly suitable for delicate food which
could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled gateaux,
iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast products.
How to Use Defrosting
1. Turn the oven function control knob to .
2. Ensure the thermostat control knob is in the OFF
position.
Hints and Tips
• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to
prevent drying out during defrosting.
• ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THAWING.
• Frozen food should be placed in a single layer when
ever possible and turned over half way through the
defrosting process.
• Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. (4 lb.) are
suitable for defrosting in this way.

If the oven bulb needs replacing, it must comply with the
following specifications:
- Electric power: 15 W / 25 W;
- Electric rate: 230 V (50 Hz);
- Resistant to temperatures of 300 °C;
- Connection type: E14.
These bulbs are available from your local Service Force
Centre.
To replace the faulty bulb:
1. Ensure the oven is disconnected from the electrical
supply.
2. Turn the glass cover anticlockwise.
3. Remove the faulty bulb and replace with the new one.
4. Refit the glass cover.
5. Reconnect to the electrical supply.
!
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass
panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed
the glass panel may shatter. If the door glass panel
becomes chipped or has deep scratches, the
glass will be weakened and must be replaced to
prevent the possibility of the panel shattering.
Contact your local Service Force Centre who will
be pleased to advise further.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be
necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a
proprietary oven cleaner.
Oven Shelves and Shelf
Supports
To clean the oven shelves, soak in warm soapy water
and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap
impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
The shelf supports can be removed for easy cleaning.
Proceed as follows:
1) remove the front screw while keeping the shelf support
in position with the other hand (see diagram 4);
2) disengage the rear hook and take off the shelf support
(see diagram 5);
3) once the cleaning is carried out, refit the shelf supports
following the procedure in reverse.
Please, ensure the retaining nuts are secure when
refitting the shelf support.
Models in stainless steel or aluminium:
We recommend to clean the oven door using only a wet
sponge and dry it up after cleaning with a soft cloth.
Never use steel wool, acids or abrasive products as they
can damage the oven surface.
Clean the oven control panel following the same
precautions.
