RATING PLATE COOKWARE Record the model and serial numbers of your cooker on the back cover of this instruction book for future reference. These numbers can be found on the rating plate 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.
PUSH TO TURN CONTROLS (BD 931 only) GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The control knobs must be pushed in towards the panel before they can be turned or adjusted. The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker. THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when either of the ovens are in use and switches off when cooking is completed.
THE GRILL USES OF THE DUAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food. SELECTING THE DUAL GRILL BD 921 BD 931 l l l Turn the grill control clockwise for full grill or anticlockwise for the centre section only.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking. To insert the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards inserting the lip into widest part of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left, lower into position and release the button. Ensure the handle is positively located.
l l l l l l 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 with the grid in its 'High' position. GRILLING CHART FOOD SHELF GRILL TIME (mins in total) Toast 2crk. 4-6 Bacon Rashers 2crk.
THE SECOND OVEN USES OF THE SECOND OVEN The second oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche. The second oven is also ideal for use as warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a temperature setting of 80° - 100°C on the second oven temperature control.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected. l For economy leave the door open for the shortest possible time, particularly when placing food into a pre-heated oven. HINTS AND TIPS l l There should always be at least 2.5cm (1") between the top of the food and the element.
THE MAIN 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 find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.
HINTS AND TIPS NOTE: a) The selector and main oven indicator windows will illuminate. l Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards. b) The oven light will come on. c) The cooling fan for the controls will operate after a time. See page 16 for further details on the operation of the cooling fan. THINGS TO NOTE 1. The oven fan will operate continually during cooking. 2.
DEFROST FEATURE USES OF DEFROST FEATURE 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. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l Place the frozen food in a single layer where possible and turn it over half way through the defrosting process. The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by room temperature. On warm days defrosting will be faster than on cooler days. DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store cooked food in the fridge. Care must always be taken when handling foods in the home.
THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN This function uses the top and lower elements to give single level cooking. This 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 oven in operation.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l l The middle shelf allows for the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position. l l For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes out, then switch the selector to the conventional oven setting. Single level cooking gives best results. If you require more than oven level cooking use the fan or zoned oven functions.
THE ZONED OVEN USES OF THE ZONED OVEN When the Zoned Oven is selected the top oven element operates in conjunction with the fan with effect that the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom. As there is a difference of up to 30°C between the top and bottom of the oven this feature is especially useful for dishes requiring different temperatures at the same time, making it ideal for cooking a complete meal on two shelves.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l Remember that the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom. The approximate difference in temperature between the top and the bottom is 30°C. If a higher shelf position is used than is recommended in the chart on page 30 it may be necessary to lower the cooking temperature by approximately 10°C. Be prepared to interchange dishes between the higher and lower shelf position during cooking where necessary.
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. Note: Shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven.
THERMAL GRILLING USES OF THERMAL GRILLING Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional grilling. The grill element and the fan operate together, circulating hot air around the food. The need to check and turn food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven door closed.
HINTS AND TIPS l l 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. l l l Turn food over during cooking as necessary. Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air around the food. Food such as fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly onto the trivet in the grill pan if preferred.

OVEN CLEAN FEATURE USES OF OVEN CLEAN FEATURE During normal use the Stayclean coating within the oven will become splashed with fats and food residues. When the oven clean feature is selected the Stayclean surfaces burn off any soilage. See Care of Stayclean Surfaces on page 44 for instructions. Regular use of the oven clean function will keep the Stayclean panels in good condition. SELECTING OVEN CLEAN BD 921 BD 931 l Remove oven shelves and bakeware from oven.
HINTS AND TIPS l Manual cleaning of the Stayclean surfaces is NOT recommended. Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool pads, aerosol cleaners or any abrasive cleaners are used. l l l l l Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean surfaces may occur in time, but this will not affect their self cleaning properties. Use the oven clean function for an hour or two per week to avoid a build up of soilage which could prevent the stay clean enamel from working properly.
