congratulations contents Dear customer, Congratulations on the purchase of your new oven. Follow the instructions below to ensure that your oven is installed with oven accessories fitted correctly for safety, and you get enjoyment from using it. To avoid the risks that are always present when you use an electric appliance, it is important that the appliance is installed correctly and that you read the safety instructions carefully to avoid misuse and hazards.
Important safety instructions WARNING Grill POR663 PORS663 WARNING cooktops The grill door must be left fully open whilst grilling in a separate grill wall oven. Do not allow pots to boil dry, as damage to both pan and cooktop may result. The grill drawer must be left approximately two finger widths ajar whilst grilling in a separate grill underbench oven. Do not operate the cooktop for an extended period of time without a utensil on the hot plate.

INSTALLING YOUR OVEN ACCESSORIES INSTALLING YOUR OVEN ACCESSORIES 2. Side racks • Insert the twin pegged side into the rear access holes provided, ensuring pegs are fully inserted. • Then locate the front peg into the front access hole and push in firmly. 1. Catalytic liners (on selected models) Catalytic liners are coated with a specially formulated enamel coating. This porous coating enables the “self cleaning” process – see page 26 for more details.
USING YOUR OVEN Understanding your oven functions Your oven will have a selection of the following functions; description and touch control symbol illustrated below. Refer to “Description of your appliance” (page 5) to confirm what functions are available to you. LARGE OVEN Function 1 Rapid Heat Heat comes from the element surrounding the fan as well as the smaller element above the food. This allows you to preheat your oven 30% quicker than on standard “bake”.
USING YOUR OVEN Grill The “grill” directs radiant heat from the powerful upper element onto the food. You can use the “grill” function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods. Grill with the oven door open for PGR 657 and PGR659 drawer ovens and closed for Duo ovens. Preheat your grill for 3 minutes to get the best results. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak, chops etc. for a better flavour.
USING YOUR COOKTOP CAUTION The ceramic cooktop is made from ceramic glass, a tough durable material that withstands heating and cooling without breaking. However, it must be remembered that as it is GLASS, it may break. Treat it accordingly! Should you have any questions about the glass in your new appliance, please contact the Customer Care Centre by phoning 1300 363 640. The heating elements are concealed under the smooth glass surface which has a pattern to show the location of the elements.
COOKING WITH YOUR TIMER OPERATING THE ELECTRONIC CLOCK 2-hour “Auto Off” timer The 2-hour timer features an automatic oven “cut off”. This means that a cooking period of up to 120 minutes can be set.

pyrolytic cleaning of the oven cavity Solving problems (POR883 & POR881 modelS only) Operation If your oven has the Pyrolytic self-cleaning function, it cleans by burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt and grease from the oven cavity, at high temperature. This process produces ash which can then be wiped out of the oven cavity. CAUTION During the pyrolytic cleaning process the oven becomes extremely hot (approximately 500˚C).

The data plate is positioned behind the bottom of the oven door. The circuit diagram is positioned on the top panel of the appliance.
Underbench Ovens and Side Opening Door Ovens Your underbench oven looks best when the control panel is directly under the benchtop. An upper infill panel may have to be added if the cooktop placed above the benchtop is too deep. Refer to cooktop installation instructions for required clearance between cooktop and oven.
