1. Important safety information To prevent fire or smoke damage Have your appliance properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C22.1. Before using the range make sure all the packing materials have been removed.
DO NOT allow children to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury. Teach them not to play with controls or any other part of the range. Wear suitable clothing NEVER wear loose-fitting or hanging clothes while using the range. Be careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets over the cooktop. Flammable material could be ignited if brought into contact with a hot surface and may cause severe burns.
Oven care n Use care when opening the door. Let hot air and steam escape before removing or replacing food (Fig. 1.1). n NEVER heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make container burst and cause injury. n n Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Fig. 1.1 ALWAYS place oven racks in their desired location while the oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, DO NOT let the potholders contact the heating element in the oven. Fig. 1.
Use the right size pan General safety instructions This appliance is equipped with cooktop zones of different sizes. Use utensils with flat bottoms. DO NOT use unstable pans and position the handles away from the edge of the cooktop. n This appliance must be installed by a competent person in accordance with the installation instructions. The installation must comply with the relevant regulations and also the local electricity supply company requirements.
n NEVER leave a deep fry pan unattended. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should be only a maximum of one third full of fat. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them together before heating, or as the fats melt. Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

A control panel C. Main multi-function oven D. Storage drawer Cooktop Use only pans that are suitable for induction cooktops.
The very best pans have bases that are very slightly curved up when cold (Fig. 2.4). If you hold a ruler across the bottom you will see a small gap in the middle. When they heat up the metal expands and lies flat on the cooking surface. Fig. 2.4 Make sure that the base of the pan is clean and dry to prevent any residue burning onto the cooktop panel. This also helps prevent scratches and deposits. Always use pans that are the same size as the areas marked on the cooktop.

When a cooking zone is switched off the residual heat indicator symbol [H ], will appear in the display. This shows that the cooking zone temperature is above 140 °F (60 °C) and may still cause burns. Once the temperature has dropped to below 140 °F (60 °C) the [ H ] will go out.

The Bridging-Zone Function Fig. 2.10 Zones D and E can be bridged, creating an area, ideal for use with an induction griddle (not supplied). Note: The griddle should comprise of an induction friendly, flat bottom, large enough to cover zones D and E of the hotplate heating area (Fig. 2.10). DO NOT use zones A, B or C to heat the griddle (Fig. 2.11). To activate the bridging-zone function, simultaneously turn the two right-hand controls completely clockwise (Fig. 2.
The Multi-function Oven A IMPORTANT: Before using the oven for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odors, turn the oven to 392°F (200°C) in fan assisted mode and run for one hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on your ventilation hood. B n DO NOT drop or rest objects on the door glass. Although the glass is very strong, a sharp blow or a sharp falling object might cause the glass surface to crack or break. ArtNo.
Multi-function oven modes (Fig. 2.19) Fig. 2.19 Warming Thaw and serve Base heat Thaw and serve Defrost Browning This function operates the fan(s) to circulate cold air only (Fig. 2.20). Make sure the temperature control is at 0° and that no heat is applied. This enables small items such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.
Fan assisted oven Fig. 2.23 This function operates the fans, circulating air heated by the elements at the top and the base of the oven (Fig. 2.23). The combination of fan and conventional cooking (top and base heat) makes this function ideal for cooking large items that need thorough cooking, such as a large meat roast.
Fig. 2.27 Accessories Fig. 2.28 Oven racks Rear The range is supplied with the following: • 2 full width racks with telescopic runners (Fig. 2.27) Front • 1 oven rack / tray cradle with telescopic runners (Fig. 2.28) Fig. 2.29 • 1 deluxe oven tray and trivet (Fig. 2.29) Fig. 2.30 • 1 flat rack (Fig. 2.30) • One pastry rack (Fig. 2.31) The oven shelves are retained when pulled forward but can be easily removed and refitted.

3. Cooking tips Cooking with a multi-function oven Fig. 3.1 REMEMBER: not all modes are suitable for all food types. The oven cooking times given are intended as a guide only. 5 4 3 2 1 General oven tips The wire racks should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven. Baking trays with food cooking on them should be placed level with the front edge of the oven’s wire racks. Other containers should be placed centrally.
4. Cooking table The oven control settings and cooking times given in the table below are intended to be used as a guide only. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to provide a preferred result. Food is cooked at lower temperature in a convection oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce the convection oven temperature by 50°F (10 °C) and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes.
Food Conventional Oven Convection Oven Temperature °F (°C) Rack position Approximate Cooking Time Temperature °F (°C) Muffins 374 (190) 2 356 (180) 25-30 minutes; interchange after 15 minutes. Cookies 374 (190) 2 356 (180) 10-15 minutes; interchange after 15 minutes. Pound cakes 374 (190) 3 356 (180) 40-60 minutes. Bread 428 (220) 2-3 392 (200) 20-30 minutes. *Thoroughly thaw frozen joints before cooking.
5. Cleaning your range Essential information Fig. 5.1 n Before thorough cleaning, turn off the circuit breaker. Allow the range to cool. n After cleaning remember to switch on the circuit breaker before using the range. n Never use paint solvents, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt. n Do not mix different cleaning products – they may react together with hazardous results. ArtNo.
Top Plate Scraper Tool: (SAG-W2084) Its stainless steel body is easy to clean and the built in blade protector ensures the blade can be safely withdrawn when the scraper is not in use. Fig. 5.2 Fig. 5.3 Control panel and oven doors Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream cleaners, on brushed stainless steel surfaces. For best results use liquid detergents.
Cleaning table Cleaners listed (Table 5.1) are available from most supermarkets or on line. For enamelled surfaces use a cleaner that is approved for use on vitreous enamel. Regular cleaning is recommended. For easier cleaning, wipe up any spillages immediately. Cooktop Part Finish Cooktop surface Toughened glass Outside of range Part Finish Door, door surround and storage drawer exterior Recommended Cleaning Method Hot soapy water, non-abrasive cleaner if necessary.
6. n Troubleshooting All servicing and repairs must be carried out by a qualified service engineer. Steam is coming from the oven When cooking foods with a high water content (e.g. oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille. Take care when opening the oven door, as there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper at the back, then the back of the range should be raised up or the front lowered.) Fig. 6.1 If the range is not level arrange for your supplier to level it for you. Oven not coming on Is the power on? If not there may be something wrong with the power supply. Is the range supply on at the circuit breaker? Have you set a cooking function? Fig. 6.
