Fitting the Splash back
A stainless steel splash back is supplied with the
appliance. This is meant to be fitted on the rear edge of
the cooker's hob. The splash back package is in the oven
cavity.
1. Unpack the splash back and dispose of the packaging
with due regard to safety and the environment.
2. Slide the two bayonets of the splash back into the
relevant supports on the rear adge of the cooker's
hob.

Using the Hob
Ho urners
To light a burner:
lPush the electric ignition button which is mar ed with
a little spar ( ).
lAt the same time, push in and turn the relevant control
nob anticloc wise to maximum position.
lThen adjust the flame as required.
lIf the burner does not ignite, turn the control nob to
zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after installation or
a power cut, it is quite normal for the spar
generator to be activated automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only
use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used (see table).
Burner minimum maximum
diameter diameter
Ultra-rapid
(triple crown) 220 mm. 260 mm.
Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm.
Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.
F
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond
the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to
overheat.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily
ignite.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the
flame so that it will barely eep the liquid
simmering.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please
contact your local Service Centre.
When using the auxiliary burner (with pans having
a diameter equal or higher than 50mm), place the
special grid on the pan support, as shown in the
diagram.
Triple-crown urner
Always ignite the burner before putting the
pans on.
If after a few attempts the burner does not ignite,
chec that the burner cap and crown are correctly
positioned (see diagram).

The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thic ness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
AAluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce coo ing and base browning.
BEnamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stic interior and coloured exterior and dar ,
heavy utensils increase coo ing and base browning.
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling ettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand back from
the oven when opening the oven door to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
 Use any oven proof coo ware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.
 Ba ing trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the bac
of the oven, or placed on the oven base.
 Do not use ba ing 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.
Hints and Tips
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer is located underneath the oven cavity.
During coo ing the storage drawer may become
hot if the oven is on high for a long period of time,
therefore flammable materials such as oven gloves,
tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not be
stored in the drawer.
Oven accessories such as ba ing sheets, will
also become hot, therefore care should be ta en
when removing these items from the drawer whilst
the oven is in use or still hot.
 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 coo ware directly on the oven
base.

Using the Conventional Oven
When using this setting, heat comes from both the top
and bottom elements. This allows you to coo on a single
level and is particularly suitable for dishes which require
extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans.
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top
browning also coo well in the conventional oven. This
form of coo ing gives you the opportunity to coo without
the fan in operation.
How to Use the
Conventional Oven
1. Turn the oven function control nob to the required
coo ing function ( ).
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required temperatu-
re.
Top oven element only
This function is suitable for finishing coo ed dishes, e.g.
lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blind-ba ing
pastry. It may also be used to finish off quiches or flans
to ensure the base pastry is coo ed through.
THINGS TO NOTE
l The oven light will come on when the oven function
control nob is set.
l The thermostat control light will remain on until the
correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on
and off to show that temperature is being maintained.
The middle shelf position allows for the best heat
distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the
shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf
position.
The material and finish of the ba ing trays and dishes
used will affect base browning. Enamelware, dar , heavy
or non-stic utensils increase base browning, while oven
glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect
the heat away and give less base browning.
Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even
browning.
Stand dishes on suitably sized ba ing trays to prevent
spillage onto the base of the oven and ma e cleaning
easier.
Do not place dishes, tins or ba ing trays directly on the
oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.
For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat
the oven until the oven indicator neon goes out, then
swich the selector to the conventional oven setting.
Single level coo ing gives best results. If you
require more than one level coo ing use the fan
oven function.
