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. 5. WARNING: EARTHED · THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE 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. 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.

INTRODUCTION RATING PLATE COOKWARE This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the main cavity door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable). 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 1 cranked shelf (for grilling and top oven cooking only) The following items of grill and 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 Service, quoting the relevant part number. 2 straight shelves (for fan oven cooking) 1 grill pan (311409401) The grill deflector sits above the grill element and prevents fat splashing onto the grill roof.
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 ovens. When you first switch the electricity supply on, the timer display will flash.
AUTOMATIC CONTROL Important: You can only use the automatic control for the main oven. 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.
THE DUAL 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 whole 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 · Select the Top Oven/Grill Function to Full for full grill. · Select the Top Oven/Grill Function to Half for centre section only.
HINTS AND TIPS · In order to become acquainted with the performance of the Dual Grill it is advisable to check food regularly when grilling. · 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. GRILLING CHART FOOD SHELF GRILL TIME (mins in total) Bacon Rashers 2crk. 4-6 Beefburgers 2crk. 10 Chicken Joints 2crk.
THE TOP OVEN USES OF THE TOP OVEN The top 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 or savoury flans or quiche. The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. temperature setting of 80°C - 100°C on the top oven control.
HINTS AND TIPS · · Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf and there is sufficient room around the baking tray/dish to allow for maximum circulation. · The material and finish of the baking tray and dishes will affect the degree of base browning of the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning. Shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning.
THE MAIN 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. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.
HINTS AND TIPS · 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. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time.

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 main 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. A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in approximately 5 hours.
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 MAIN OVEN BEFORE CLEANING ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE APPLIANCE DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. The Stayclean surface inside the Main 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 BETWEEN THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS 1. Open the oven door with care and place in the park position at an angle of approximately 30°. Under no circumstances should the door assembly be detached from the product for cleaning. Please refer to the cleaning instructions. The outer door glass is removable for cleaning. TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS 1. Open the oven door slightly to gain access to the two cross head screws on the top of the oven door. 2.
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES · Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C. It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two per week to ensure continued good performance from the Stayclean finish. Covering joints during cooking will also prevent splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing the covering for the last 20-30 minutes will allow extra browning if required.
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 23). Be prepared to adjust the temperature up or down by 10°C to achieve the results you want.
