SAFETY AND WARNINGS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS! ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● 4 Use only dry oven mitts or potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces could result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot areas or heating elements. Do not use a towel or a bulky cloth for a potholder. It could catch fire. Do not heat unopened food containers. They can build up pressure that may cause the container to burst and result in injury.
SAFETY AND WARNINGS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS! ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Before starting a Self Clean cycle, remove oven shelves, side racks, and all other cookware/utensils, and wipe up large food spills or grease deposits. Before starting a Self Clean cycle, make sure you move any pet birds to another, closed and well-ventilated room. Some pet birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during a Self Clean cycle and may die if left in the same room as the oven during such a cycle.
COOKING GUIDE ● ● ● ● ● ● ● BAKING For best results when baking, always pre heat your oven. The broil element may come on for a short time while the oven is heating up. The halo will turn from red to white when the preset temperature is reached. Do not open the door until at least of the way through cooking. Make sure cake pans do not touch each other or the sides of the oven. When baking double the recipe (especially cookies) you may need to increase the time. Your cookware will influence baking times.
COOKING GUIDE ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● 8 BROILING This is a healthier alternative to frying. Always broil with the oven door completely shut. If you use glass or ceramic pans, be sure they can withstand the high temperatures of broiling. To avoid piercing the meat and letting juices escape, use tongs or a spatula to turn the meat halfway through cooking. Brush meat with a little oil to help keep the meat moist during cooking.
COOKING CHARTS The recommendations in the following charts are guidelines. A lot of factors affect the exact time and temperature required for baking, roasting and broiling. Follow the instructions in your recipe or on packaging and be prepared to adjust the oven settings and cook times to achieve the best possible results for you. Note: The broil element may come on for a short time while the oven is heating up.

AUTOMATIC COOKING ● ● ● ● ● ● You can set the oven(s) to automatically turn on later, cook for a preset time (cooking time), then automatically turn off at a preset stop time. See the example and instructions below (steps 1 to 7). If you start cooking manually and only want the oven to turn off automatically after a set cooking time: simply set the cooking time following steps 1 to 3 below and selecting a function and temperature. The oven will automatically turn off when the cooking time is over.
CARE AND CLEANING To replace the oven door Hinge slot Hinge tongue 1 Hold the door firmly in an approximately halfway open position. 4 Open the door completely and check that the hinges are both secured by the correct notches as shown. 5 Rotate the locks into the closed position. 2 Align the hinge tongue with the hinge slots and push the door until you feel the latches locate into position on each side. 6 Close the oven door. IMPORTANT! Hinge locks should rest inside the slots.
CARE AND CLEANING Removing and replacing the sliding shelves and side racks 1 To remove a sliding shelf, grip it by its two front corners (making sure you are gripping the wire shelf and the sliding frame together), tilt upwards and pull it out of the oven. 2 To remove the side racks, gently push the retaining wire from underneath the lock stud, then swing the lowest edge of the side rack up and out towards the center of the oven until the rack is almost horizontal.
CARE AND CLEANING Manual cleaning ALWAYS ● ● ● ● ● NEVER Before any manual cleaning or maintenance, first wait for the oven to cool down to a safe temperature to touch, then turn its power supply off at the wall. Read these cleaning instructions and the ‘Safety and warnings’ section before you start cleaning your oven. To prevent soiling from becoming ‘baked on’ and stubborn, we recommend removing any easy-toreach spills, food or grease stains from the oven cavity enamel after each use.
CARE AND CLEANING Manual cleaning WHAT? HOW? IMPORTANT! Dials Clean with a solution of mild detergent and hot water, then wipe dry. Do not use stainless steel or oven cleaner on the dials, as doing so may damage their coating. Stainless steel strip/handle on the front of the oven door ● ● Clean with a solution of mild detergent and hot water, then wipe dry with a microfibre cloth. If necessary, use a suitable stainless steel cleaner and polish.
USING THE SELF CLEAN FUNCTION ● ● During the pyrolytic Self Clean cycle the extremely high temperature burns off and breaks down grime and grease deposits. All that is left is a small amount of gray ash that you can easily remove. There is a choice of Self Clean cycles: ● Self Clean (5 hours) (for normal soiling). ● Light Self Clean (4 hours) (suitable for a light or localised soiling). Double oven models only: Only one oven can be self-cleaned at a time.
USING THE SELF CLEAN FUNCTION To start a Self Clean cycle 1 Remove oven shelves, side racks and all other accessories, bakeware, and utensils. 2 Wipe up any spills. Failure to do so may discolor the oven surfaces. 3 Check the inner glass pane of the oven door. If it has soiling on it (eg stains from greasy splatter), you will need to clean it manually before starting a Self Clean cycle. For instructions, see ‘Care and cleaning’.

Do not turn off the mains power supply to the oven (wall switch) if you get an alert code, unless the instructions in the chart following specifically instruct you to. There are cooling fans within the oven which are needed to cool the oven’s components. Turning off the power while the oven is too hot may damage the oven and its surrounding cabinetry.
ALERT CODES ALERT CODE POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO The oven has overheated. 1 Allow the oven to cool down. 2 Once the oven has cooled down and the door has unlocked, the alert code will disappear.
