PREFACE Dear Customer, Thank you for buying a Tricity Bendix built-in oven. With our 80 years experience in developing and manufacturing the very best in U.K. cookers, you can be assured that you have purchased a hard working, reliable, quality cooker. In addition Tricity Bendix cookers comply with British Standard safety and performance requirements. They have been approved by BEAB (British Electrotechnical Approvals Board) and are covered by a 12 month parts and labour guarantee.
SAFETY THESE WARNINGS ARE PROVIDED IN THE INTERESTS OF YOUR SAFETY. ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THEM ALL BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING THE COOKER. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION This cooker is heavy and care must be taken when moving it. Ensure that all packaging, both inside and outside the cooker has been removed before the cooker is used. Do not try to move the cooker by pulling the door handles. Refer to installation instructions.
Ensure that all vents are left unobstructed to ensure ventilation of the oven. You must ensure that the grill control is in the 'OFF' position when the timer control has been set for automatic cooking. Ensure that the anti-tilt shelves are put in place correctly. Refer to instructions on page 22. Never line any part of the cooker with aluminium foil. Do not allow heatproof cooking material, e.g. roasting bags, to come into contact with oven elements.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW GETTING THINGS READY WARNINGS: CHOICE OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION l l This cooker must be installed by a qualified electrician/competent person. Safety may be impaired if installation is not carried out in accordance with these instructions. l l This cooker must be earthed. Do not remove the screws from the earth tab extending from the oven mains terminal block (Fig. 6).
NOTE: It is good practice to: l l Fit an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker to your house wiring. Wire your appliance to the latest IEE regulations. PREPARING CABINET FOR FITTING OF OVEN l l l Make sure the cabinet is the correct size for the appliance to be fitted (Ref. Fig. 2). If the size is between 565-570mm, then the cabinet should be modified so that at the screw fixing points the recommended dimension of at least 560-565mm is maintained.

HOW TO FINISH UNPACKING l l l l Place packed cooker next to the cabinet in which it will be installed. Carefully score down from each end 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. Remove the cooker packing except for bottom tray which should be left in position until the cooker is ready to be fitted into its cabinet.
l Lift cover and remove screw from cable clamp. See Fig. 5. l l Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of the outer insulation is inside the terminal block and that the wires are not taught but not so slack as to cause any fouling. See Fig. 6. Place fuse/ miniature circuit breaker in circuit and switch on at mains. CONNECTING TO A HOB OR COOKER POINT WARNING: THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED.
FITTING INTO THE CABINET IMPORTANT: Ensure that the oven is switched off at the wall before any further work is carried out. l l l l l Using a tape measure establish the internal width of the cabinet. Refer to page 8 if greater than 565mm. Position the cooker in front of the cabinet. See Fig. 7. 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. Fig.

INTRODUCTION RATING PLATE COOKWARE Record the model, product and serial numbers of your cooker on the back cover of this instruction book. These numbers can be found on the lower front frame of the cooker upon opening the oven door. Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven. Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm (12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The following items of grill and oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker.

THE GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. SELECTING THE GRILL l l l To operate the grill open the grill door and turn the grill control clockwise to the required setting. The highest number represents the hottest setting and the lowest number the coolest setting. Ensure your hand is protected when inserting and removing the grill pan handle as the control panel trim and grill element can become very hot.
l Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats. HINTS AND TIPS l 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 base if preferred. l l l l l Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different thicknesses of food.

THE FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however, you may find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés, etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. COOKING TEMPERATURES Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l l l l 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.
OVEN COOKING 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.

DEFROSTING USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This oven function defrosts most foods faster than more conventional methods. 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. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours. A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in approximately 5 hours.
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD 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:1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good quality and in prime condition. Shop at a reliable source and buy the 'freshest' looking package avoid shop-worn labels or produce covered in dust. 2.
CARE AND CLEANING BEFORE CLEANING ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF AT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer. Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives should also be avoided.
5. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water or Hob Brite. DO NOT try to clean the aluminium foil which is inside the door. The foil is there to help keep the door cool, if it is damaged it will not work. Ensure that all parts are well rinsed and thoroughly dry before attempting to replace the outer door glass. TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS 1. Holding the oven glass with both hands, gently place the locators into the holes of the brackets at the bottom of the oven door. 2.
SOMETHING NOT WORKING? We strongly recommend that you carry out the following checks on your cooker before calling a Service Engineer. It may be that the problem is a simple one which you can solve yourself without the expense of a service call. If our Service Engineer finds that the problem is listed below you will be charged for the call whether or not the cooker is under guarantee. The oven temperature is too high or low. * Check that the recommended temperatures are being used (see page 24).
