HOW TO FINISH UNPACKING · Place appliance next to the cabinet in which it will be installed. · Remove the appliance packing except for bottom tray which should be left in position until the appliance is ready to be fitted into its cabinet. Carefully score down from each of the cable sheathing along the length of the bare earth wire (if a cut was made along the length of the live or neutral wires, it might cut into their sheathing) to the cuts already made.
· CONNECTING TO A HOB OR COOKER POINT Lift cover and remove screw from cable clamp. See Fig. 7. · Either follow in general terms the instructions for connecting to the terminal block or refer to the hob suppliers installation instructions. Feed the cable through the cabinet and arrange to route the cable away from the appliance which may become hot. CHECKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Fig.
FITTING INTO THE CABINET IMPORTANT: Ensure that the oven is switched off at the wall before any further work is carried out. · Using a tape measure establish the internal width of the cabinet. Refer to page 7 if greater than 565mm. · Position the appliance in front of the cabinet. See Fig. 9. · Take out all oven furniture before installation to reduce the weight you need to lift. The oven door should be taped up to keep it closed whilst lifting.

The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the appliance. If you require replacements of any of the items listed below please contact your local Service Force Centre, quoting the relevant part number. 1 grill pan (311409401) 1 grill pan handle (311468100) NOTE If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered from your local Service Force Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6.
THE OVEN TIMER Cookpot symbol Please note that this is a 24 hour clock, for example 2.00 pm is shown as 1400. Bell symbol In the following pages we explain how to set the controls. Read through them a few times until you are familiar with the procedure. If the oven is switched off on the wall, or there is a loss of power, the clock will stop and you will not be able to use the fan oven. When you first switch the electricity supply on, the timer display will flash.
AUTOMATIC CONTROL When you use the automatic controls for the first time it’s probably best to choose a time when you are at home. That way you can check to make sure you’ve set everything correctly and you’ll feel much more confident when you are away from home in the future. SETTING THE CONTROLS FOR AUTOMATIC USE This is very easy. All you have to do is work through the steps below. The clock will work out the rest for itself. 1. Is the electricity supply on? 2.
THE GRILL USES OF THE GRILL CAUTION – ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. Use the full heat grill only for foods which require high heat and short cooking times, e.g. toast, blue/rare steaks. Use thermal grilling to grill all other foods, e.g. bacon, chops, sausages, chicken joints, etc. See chart on page 25 for recommended cooking times, temperatures and shelf positions.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE HINTS AND TIPS The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. · Cook toast and rare steaks using the preheated full heat grill. All other foods cook very successfully on thermal grill. · When toasting bread, we suggest that the top telescopic runner position is used with the grid in its ‘High’ position. · The food should be turned over during cooking as required.
THE FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN The oven is heated by an element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven and the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of fan oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.
HINTS AND TIPS · The top shelf position should be reserved for grilling only. · Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards. · When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results. · When batch baking one type of food, e.g.

ROASTING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements.
THERMAL GRILLING USES OF THERMAL GRILLING The lower part of the oven can be used to cook accompaniments at the same time, e.g. tomatoes and mushrooms with a mixed grill or breakfast. Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional grilling. Dishes prepared in advance such as shepherd's pie, lasagne and au gratin's can be heated through and browned on the top using the thermal grilling function.
HINTS AND TIPS · Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or butter to keep them moist during cooking. · Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka, lasagne, etc., are piping hot throughout before serving. · A temperature range of 140°C - 220°C and shelf positions 3 and 4 are suitable for most foods. Be prepared to make suitable adjustments during cooking to suit individual requirements.
DEFROSTING USES OF DEFROST FEATURE Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 – 2 hours. This function enables you to defrost most foods faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc.
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD 10. Cook meat thoroughly – use a meat thermometer if preferred, which penetrates the joint to check that the centre temperature has reached the required temperature (see table below). Care must be taken when handling foods in the home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross contamination when preparing, reheating, cooking, cooling, defrosting and freezing foods:- MEAT Beef 1.
CARE AND CLEANING CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN/GRILL BEFORE CLEANING THE APPLIANCE ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE APPLIANCE DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. The Stayclean surface inside the Oven should not be cleaned manually. See page 29 'Care of Stayclean Surfaces'. The vitreous enamel oven base can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards.
CLEANING THE FURNITURE GRILL AND OVEN COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE 1. Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher temperatures during roasting will increase soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender. All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can be washed in the dishwasher. The grill pan, grill pan grid and oven shelves may be cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad.
CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS 4. Tighten the screws positively with a Pozidrive screwdriver before closing the oven door. Do Not attempt to use the oven without the glass being in place. Under no circumstances should the door assembly be detached from the product for cleaning. Please refer to the cleaning instructions. 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.
SOMETHING NOT WORKING? Before calling an Engineer please carry out the following checks, you may be able to solve the problem without the expense of an Engineer. The oven temperature is too high or too low: * Check that the recommended temperatures are being used (see page 22). Be prepared to adjust the temperature up or down by 10°C to achieve the results you want.
