8
Remove all pa kaging, both inside and
outside the oven, before using the oven.
Before first use, the oven should be heated without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is quite normal.
1. Switch the oven function control knob to conventional
cooking .
2. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.
3. Open a window for ventilation.
4. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45
minutes.
5. Half way through, reset the oven function control to fan
cooking .
This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
 Always ook with the oven door losed.
 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 (Fig. 7 Page 3), and is
supplied with two shelves. The shelf positions are
casted 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.
Cookware
 Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250° .
 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.
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand ba k 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.
Before the First Use
Using the Oven
Push-Pull Control Knobs (Fig. 4 - Page 3)
All the models, ex ept model BMS 641 X, are provided
with push-pull control knobs.
These knobs can be completely sunken inside the control
panel when the oven is not working.

9
When using this setting, heat comes from both the top
and bottom elements. This allows you to cook in 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 cook well in the conventional oven. This
form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without
the fan in operation.
How to Use the
Conventional Oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required
cooking function   .
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required temperatu-
re.
Top oven element only
This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes, eg;
lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blind-baking
pastry or cooking pizza. It may also be used to finish off
quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is cooked
through.
THINGS TO NOTE
lThe oven light will come on when the oven function
control knob is set.
lThe ccoling fan will operate continually during cooking.
It may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the
controls cool. This is quite normal.
lThe 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.
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.
Using the Conventional Oven
Hints and Tips
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 baking trays and dishes
used will affect base browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy
or non-stick 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 baking trays to prevent
spillage onto the base of the oven and make cleaning
easier.
Do not place dishes, tins or baking 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 cooking gives best results. If you require more
than one level cooking use the fan oven function.

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 advantages of ooking with this fun tion are:
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 or remember to reduce temperatures by about
20-25° for your own recipes which use conventional
cooking.
Even Heating for Baking
The fan oven has uniform heating on all runner 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.
THINGS TO NOTE: During cooking, the cooling fan and
the thermostat control light will operate in the same way
as described for the conventional oven function.

Cooking Chart
lRunner positions are not critical, but make sure the
shelves are evenly spread.
lWhen cooking more than one dish in the fan oven,
place dishes centrally on the shelves rather than
several dishes on one shelf.
lWhen the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly
longer cooking time.
lA shelf may be placed on the floor of the oven. Place
dishes on a shelf in this position rather than on the
oven base, to allow air circulation around the food.
lWhen 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.
lThe 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° and allow 20-40 minutes (depending on the
quantity of food in the oven).
lThe use of too high temperatures can cause uneven
browning. heck with the recommendations for oven
temperatures given in the cooking charts, but be
prepared to adjust the temperature by 10° if
necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures by
about 20-25° for your own conventional recipes.
lThe meat tin should not be placed on a heated
hotplate or burner as this may cause the enamel to
crack.

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 tem-
perature 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.
 over food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to
prevent drying out during defrosting.
 ALWAYS OOK 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.
Refer to the following table for approximate defrosting
times.

Grilling must be arried out with the oven
door losed. The grill pan handles must be
removed from the pan.
How to Use the Grill
1. Turn the oven control function knob on .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required
temperature.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for
different thicknesses of food. Position the food close
to the element for faster cooking and further away for
more gentle cooking.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before
sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat setting and the
shelf as necessary, during cooking
During cooking, the cooling fan and the thermostat
control light will operate in the same way as described for
the fan oven function.
- 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.
Grilling
Hints and Tips
i
How to Use the Inner Grill
Element
The inner grill provides quick direct heat to the central area
of the grill pan. By using the inner grill element for cooking
small quantities, it can help to save energy.
1. Turn the oven control function knob on .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required
temperature.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for
different thicknesses of food and follow the instructions
for grilling.
How to Use the Thermal Grill
Thermal grill offers an alternative method of cooking food
items normally associated with conventional grilling. The
grill element and the oven fan operate alternately, circulating
hot air around the food. The need to check and turn the
food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimize cooking
smells in the kitchen.
With the exception of toast and rare steaks, you can
thermally grill all the foods you would normally cook under
a conventional grill. ooking is more gentle, therefore food
generally takes a little longer to cook with thermal grilling
compared with conventional grilling. One of the advantages
is that larger loads can be cooked at the same time.
1. Turn the oven control function knob on .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required
temperature. Sele t a maximum temperature of
200°C.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for
different thicknesses of food and follow the instructions
for grilling.
Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling.
Brush lean meats and fish lightly with little oil or butter to
keep them moist during cooking.
A general guide to cooking times is given below but these
times may vary slightly depending on the thickness and
quantity of food being cooked.

Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to
cool the oven down before switching off at the
electricity supply.
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-
up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire,
especially in the grill pan.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check
that they are suitable and that their use is recommended
by the manufacturer.
leaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door
seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little liquid detergent has been added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass
panels avoid the use of the following:
 Household detergent and bleaches
 Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans
 Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads

lean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy
water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled
it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite is used. Do not use paint scrapers to remove
soilage.
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. ontact your local Service entre
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.
If the soilage has become set, after the oven has cooled
down, the following process will help to soften the
splatters to help make cleaning easier.
1. Place the grill/ meat pan on the oven shelf positioned
in the lowest runner.
2. Add a few drops of wasing-up liquid to the pan and fill
to about 12 mm. with boiling water from the kettle.
3. lose the oven door, turn the oven function knob on fan
oven and set the thermostat knob on 50° .
4. After 15 minutes, turn off the thermostat and allow the
fan oven to continue without heat for a further 5
minutes, when the temperature of the water will have
cooled down.
5. arefully remove the pan of water from the oven and
use normal oven cleaners to clean away soil residues.
6. Leave a little of the soapy water to soak into any
burned on spillage on the floor of the oven for a longer
time if necessary.
Grease Filter (Fig. 12 - Page 3)
To prevent a build-up of fats on the fan impellor, the grease
filter must be fitted by clipping it over the vents in the back
panel.
To clean the grease filter
When the oven has cooled down, remove the filter by
pushing the protruding tongue on the filter upward, and
wash carefully.
The grease filter should be cleaned after every use. The
filter may be washed in a dishwasher on a 65° wash. If
the filter is heavily soiled, place the filter in a saucepan of
water with approximately 1 teaspoon of automatic washing
powder or dishwasher powder. Bring to the boil and leave
to soak for approximately 30 minutes or longer depending
on the degree of soiling. Ensure the solution does not boil
over as it could mark your hob.
Rinse filter in clear water and dry.
Remember to refit the filter before using the oven again.
Repla ing the Oven Light (Fig.13 - Page 4)
If the oven bulb needs replacing, it must comply with the
following specifications:
- Electric power: 25W,
- Electric rate: 230-240 V (50 Hz),
- Resistant to temperatures of 300° ,
- onnection type: E14.
These bulbs are available from your local Zanussi Force
Service entre.
To replace the faulty bulb:
1. Ensure the oven is isolated 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. Restore the electrical supply.
Oven Shelves
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 (see
diagram). Please, ensure the retaining nuts are secure
when refitting the shelf support.
Cleaning the hinged grill (Fig.10 - Page 3)
This model has been fitted with a hinged grill element to
enable you to clean the roof of the oven easily.
Before proceeding ensure the oven is cool and
is isolated from the electricity supply.
1) Undo the screws which holds the grill in place (Fig.10
- Page 3). When doing this operation for the first time,
we recommend using a screwdriver.
2) Then gently pull the grill downward to allow access
to the oven roof.
3) lean the oven roof with a suitable cleaner and wipe
dry before replacing the hinged grill element.
4) Gently push up the grill element into place and firmly
screw into place the holding nuts.
Ensure the grill holding nuts are firmly in place to
avoid the grill falling down when in use.
