OPERATION
• Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
• Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you switch
it on.
• Keep edges of baking dishes at least 40mm from the
side of the oven. This allows free circulation of heat and
ensures even cooking.
• Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
• Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven with
other foods. This will cause food to steam and not brown.
• After the oven is turned off it retains the heat for some
time. Use this heat to finish custards or to dry bread.
• Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This will
prevent splattering oil on the sides of the oven and the
oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave residue which
is very difficult to remove.
• When cooking things which require a high heat from
below (e.g. tarts), place the cooking dish on a scone
tray in the desired shelf position.
• For sponges and cakes use aluminium, bright finished or
non-stick utensils.
Oven shelf location
Your oven has five positions for shelves. These are
numbered from 1 (the lowest shelf position) to 5 (the highest
shelf position). See diagram.
To give maximum space above and below the shelves,
load them in this way:
• When cooking with 1 shelf, use position 3.
• When cooking with 2 shelves, use position 2 and 5.
Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of food at
the same time. For example:
• Cook 2 trays of scones, small cakes or sausage rolls.
• Cook a roast dinner at the same time as you cook chips
or vegetables.

COOKING GUIDE
Setting the delayed start cooking time
1. Program the “cook time“ and “end time“ as described
in the relevant sections. Once both the “cook time“ and
“end time“ have been set, the “cook time“ and “end
time” indicators will stop flashing and the current time
of day will be displayed.
To check or cancel settings
1. To check your settings, press “mode” until the setting you
want is displayed. A red light will flash next to the mode
(cook time, end time etc) that is currently on display.
2. To cancel “delayed start” press “mode” until a light
flashes next to “end time”. Press and hold “–” until the
clock no longer reverses (“0:00” and you will hear a
beep). If you have left the temperature and function
knobs at a setting the oven will start once the “end time”
light stops flashing.
3. To cancel “auto shut off” press “mode” until a light
flashes next to “cook time”. Press and hold “–” until the
clock no longer reverses (“0:00” and you will hear a
beep). This automatically cancels “delayed start”. If you
have left the temperature and function knobs at a setting,
the oven will start once the “cook time” light stops
flashing. Because you have cancelled “auto off” the
oven will continue to heat until you manually turn it off.
On completion of cooking
The oven will turn off, the timer will beep and the “end
time” and/or “cook time” indicators will flash.
1. Turn the function and temperature controls to the
off position.
2. Press “+” or “–” or “mode” to stop the timer from beeping.
Switching the clock display ON and OFF
1. Press together “+” and “–” for 2 seconds to switch ’off’
the display.
2. Press together “+” and “–” for 2 seconds to switch the
clock display ’on’ again.
Note: If a timer mode is set, then it is not possible to
switch the display off.
