INTRODUCTION
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
RATING PLATE
The cable should be routed away from potentially hot
areas marked by X in the diagram below.
Record the model and serial numbers on the back
cover of this instruction book, from the rating plate.
This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the oven
door.
To move the cooker, open the main oven door and
lift the cooker by holding inside the top of the
compartment.
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is
given on the rating plate.
INSTALLATION
This appliance complies with Radio Interference
requirements of EEC Directive 87/308/EEC.
If your cooker has been damaged in transit, contact
your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install
it.
This is a type Y appliance which means it is
free-standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one
or both sides. It may also be fitted in a corner setting.
Your cooker left the factory fully packaged to protect
it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging
and damage has occurred, the manufacturer cannot
accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for
advice.
Side walls which are above hob level should be
protected by heat resistant non-combustible material
and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob
side.
Once the packaging has been removed the cooker
should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack
barrow or any other aid to lift the cooker as damage
may occur.
A nominal air gap of 2mm all around the cooker is
required to enable the cooker to be moved into
position.
Connection to the electricity supply must be carried
out by a qualified electrician/competent person.
A spacer has been incorporated into the back of the
appliance to ensure an air gap of 10mm is
maintained at hotplate level. Tiles or other forms of
deep wall covering should not obscure this gap.
The electrical connection should be made using a
double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at
least 3mm contact separation. The cable must have
conductors of sufficiently high cross-sectional area to
prevent overheating and deterioration.
Six square millimetres (6.00mm²) is the recommended
cross-section area.

Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a
minimum of 685mm above the hob.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE
CONTROLS
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill
or top oven are switched on and after a time when
the main fan oven is in use. The operation of the
cooling fan is temperature dependent in the case of
the main oven and the cooling fan may not switch in
at all at low temperature settings or where the main
oven has only been used for a short time.
The cooling fan may run on after the control knobs
have been switched off until the cooker has cooled.
If an automatic programme has been set the cooling
fan does not come on until the cooktime begins.
Do not switch the cooker off at its power point until
the cooling fan has cooled the cooker down.
It is important to ensure that the appliance is level
after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front
of the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
The following items of oven furniture have been
supplied with the cooker:
REVERSIBLE MAIN OVEN DOOR
1 grill pan
If you require the oven door to be hinged on the
opposite side, you will need to contact a qualified
Service Engineer. See page 30 for your nearest
Service Centre. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will be
made.
1 grill pan handle
1 grill pan grid
1 grill deflector
1 meat tin
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR
COOKER
We suggest that you run all the elements for a short
period to burn off any residue from their surfaces.
During this period an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window
for ventilation.
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of
this steam to escape. However, always stand back
from the appliance when opening the oven door to
allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface
on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.
1 trivet
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
1 cranked shelf for
grilling and top oven
cooking only
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
2 straight shelves
for main oven cooking

THE SEALED HOTPLATES
BEFORE USING THE HOTPLATES FOR THE FIRST TIME
Turn the control knob to a medium/high setting and allow the hotplate to heat, uncovered by a saucepan for 3-5
minutes. This hardens the protective coating on the hotplates, and makes it more resistant to normal use. A
harmless smoke will be given off from the hotplates.
To operate the hotplates turn the control knobs in
either direction to vary the heat setting.
The highest number represents the hottest
setting and the lowest represents the coolest
setting. Choose a setting appropriate to the
quantity and type of food to be cooked.
RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS
Pressure cookers, preserving pans, etc., should
comply with the recommendations given above.
For speed and economy only good quality
saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are
recommended.
Traditional round-bottomed Woks must not be used
even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases
are available and do comply with the above
recommendations.
To check the flatness of the saucepan, place a ruler
across the pan base, hold at eye level and look for
light showing. There should be very little or no light
visible between the ruler and the pan base.
HINTS AND TIPS
Avoid the use of decorative covers as they
can cause condensation to form on the
hotplates which may lead to deterioration.
Follow any guidelines provided by the
saucepan manufacturer, particularly those
relating to recommended heat settings.
Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted
saucepans as they can lead to sticking and
burning of food.
The size of the base of the saucepan should be the
same or up to 3cm/1 inch larger than the hotplate. If
the base is too small, energy will be wasted,
boilovers will also be more difficult to deal with as
spillage will fall directly onto the hotplate.
To prolong the life of the hotplates:-
Never use utensils with a skirt, e.g. a bucket
Never use an asbestos mat

For safety purposes when deep fat frying, fill the pan
one-third full of oil, DO NOT cover the pan with a lid
and DO NOT leave the pan unattended. In the
unfortunate event of a fire, switch OFF at the
electricity supply and cover the pan with a lid or
damp cloth to assist in smothering the flames.

DO NOT use water on the fire. Leave the pan to cool
for at least 30 minutes before moving it.
DO NOT leave the fat or oil in the frying pan on the
hob to store it in case the hob is inadvertently
switched ON.
PRESERVING
1. DO NOT use a pan that overlaps the perimeter of
the hob trim.
1. Preparing the food
2. To allow for a full rolling boil, the pan should be
no more than one third full when all the
ingredients have been added. It is better to use
two pans rather than overfill one, or use half
quantities.
Seal the food by coating with flour, egg and
breadcrumbs or batter. Do not use a basket with
batter coated foods as they will stick.
2. Amount of oil
For safety purposes fill the pan only one-third full
of oil.
3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before
using.
3. Testing the temperature of the oil
4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however
granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally
good flavour.
It is advisable to use a thermometer to test the
temperature of the oil. Alternatively, drop a small
cube of bread into the oil which should brown in
just under a minute if the oil is at the correct
temperature of 190°C/375°F.
5. Crystallization may be caused if sugar is not
completely dissolved before bringing jam to the
boil. Over boiling will affect the flavour, setting
properties and colour of the jam.
4. Cooking the food
6. To test jam for setting:
Lower the food gently into the oil. Do not add
too much food at once or the temperature of the
oil will be reduced and may result in soggy,
greasy food.
If a jam thermometer is available, boil jam to
104°C. Marmalade should be boiled to 106°C.
Turn the food if necessary; doughnuts float to the
surface so will not brown on the upperside if not
turned. Once cooked, drain the food on
absorbent paper.
If a jam thermometer is not available, remove
pan from heat, place sample of jam on a cold
dish and cool quickly (i.e. in a freezer or frozen
food storage compartment of a refrigerator).
When cold, it will crinkle and hold the mark of a
finger run through it, if it is ready.
5. Double frying chips
Double frying will ensure good chips. First fry the
chips for a few minutes at 170°C/340°F to seal
the outside. Remove the chips from the oil.
Increase the temperature of the oil to
190°C/375°F to finish cooking and brown the
chips.
7. The scum should be removed as soon as
possible after setting, but marmalade should be
allowed to cool before potting to prevent the peel
rising.
Chips may be kept for several hours after the first
frying before finishing off with the second frying.

THE DUAL GRILL
USES OF THE 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 GRILL
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
To operate the dual grill, turn the grill control
clockwise for full area grilling, and anti-clockwise
for centre section grilling only. The grill neon will
illuminate.
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
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.
The cooling fan will operate immediately in
conjunction with the grill.
The highest number represents the hottest
setting and the lowest the coolest setting.
Ensure the handle is positively located.
THINGS TO NOTE
When removing the handle, press the button on the
handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly
upwards and towards the right to remove from the
bracket.
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING
GRILLING.
If the grill door is accidentally closed during grilling, a
safety device incorporated in the appliance will cut
out the grill to indicate to the user there is a fault.
This will occur after approximately 10 minutes.
Ensure your hand is protected when removing
the grill pan handle as the grill element can
become very hot.
ALWAYS REMOVE THE GRILL PAN HANDLE
DURING GRILLING.
The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the grill
compartment, but a straight shelf from the main oven
may be used to provide alternative positions.
Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident as
the grill cleans itself.
The top oven cannot be operated when the grill is in
use. If the grill and top oven controls are selected at
the same time, only the top oven will operate.
The outer grill element may appear to glow slightly
brighter than the inner element. This is quite normal.
16

Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid
when grilling meats.
To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure
that the cut out on the underside of the handle
bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to tend the
food during cooking, or the carrier shelf can be lifted
away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant
work surface.
When toasting bread use the cranked shelf in
position 2 with the grid in the high position.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before cooking. Adjust the heat setting
and the shelf as necessary during cooking.
The food should be turned over during cooking
as required.

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 on one level and for 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. Use a
temperature setting of 80-100°C on the top oven control dial.
SELECTING THE TOP OVEN
Turn the top oven temperature control to the
Back of the Oven
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. The grill cannot be operated when the top oven is
in use. If the grill and top oven controls are
selected at the same time, only the top oven will
Straight Rods
operate.
Frame
2. The top oven indicator neon will glow until the
HINTS AND TIPS
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go out. It will then cycle ON and OFF
showing that the oven temperature is being
maintained.
Most cooking should be carried out using an
oven shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners.
3. The cooling fan will operate immediately with the
top oven. See page 9 for more details on the
operation of the cooling fan.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF
The cranked shelf must only be used in the top oven
compartment but a straight shelf from the main oven
may be used to provide alternative positions.
Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be
cooked in the main oven. However, they may be
cooked on a flat shelf from the main oven placed
on the base of the top oven provided there is
sufficient room for air circulation around the food.
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.
18

Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on
the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base
and to help reduce cleaning.
Because of the smaller cooking space, lower
temperatures and shorter cooking times are
sometimes required. Be guided by the
recommendations on page 22.
For economy leave the door open for the
shortest possible time, particularly when placing
food into a pre-heated oven.
There should always be at least 2.5cm (1")
between the top of the food and the element.
This gives best cooking results and allows room
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings,
etc.
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread, etc.,
place the tins or baking trays centrally on the
shelf directly below the element.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
If you use the automatic timer to cook food in the
top oven be guided by the recommendations
given below.
*
*
*
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
When cooking is complete do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven
base as it becomes very hot and damage may
occur.
Always ensure food in the oven is covered if its
not possible to remove food immediately after
cooking.
The material and finish of the baking trays 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.
DO NOT use the grill pan as a baking tray as this
will increase base browning of the food.

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.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the chart on page 22. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes.
BATCH BAKING
The fan oven cooks evenly on both shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN
THINGS TO NOTE
Turn the main oven temperature control to the
required setting.
1. The main oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go out. It will cycle ON and OFF periodically
during cooking showing that the temperature is
being maintained.
2. The interior oven light will come ON when the
temperature is selected.
3. The cooling fan for the controls may switch in
after a time. See page 9 for more information on
the operation of the cooling fan.
20
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
It is recommended that when baking larger
quantities, the shelf positions should be evenly
spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight
increase in cooking time may be necessary.
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES
The shelves 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.
Do not place dishes or baking trays directly on
the oven floor as it interferes with the oven air
circulation and can lead to base burning; use the
lower shelf position. However non critical dishes
can be placed on the oven base when more
space is required.
Back of the Oven
Straight Rods
Frame
HINTS AND TIPS
Arrange the shelves in the required positions
before switching the oven ON. Shelves are
numbered from the bottom upwards.
The use of excessively high temperatures can
cause uneven browning. It may be necessary to
reduce temperatures slightly. Refer to the
recommendations given in the oven cooking
chart on page 22.
DO NOT use the cranked shelf from the grill in
the main oven.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
If you use the automatic timer to cook food in the
main oven be guided by the recommendations
below.
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.
*
*
*
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria
sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be
cooked in the same time.
When cooking is complete do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
Always ensure food in the oven is covered if it's
not possible to remove food immediately after
cooking.

The roasting temperatures and times given in the chart should be adequate for most joints, but slight adjustments
may be required to allow for personal requirements and the shape and texture of the meat. However, lower
temperatures and longer cooking times are recommended for less tender cuts or larger joints.
Wrap joints in foil if preferred, for extra browning uncover for the last 30 - 60 min. cooking time.

DEFROSTING
Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed
or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be
thawed in 1 - 2 hours.
USES OF DEFROST FEATURE
This fan 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. Remove the giblets as soon
as possible during the thawing process.
Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be
thawed using the defrost function.
It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly
in the fridge. However, this process can be
accelerated by using the defrost function.
ALL JOINTS OF MEAT AND POULTRY MUST BE
THAWED THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING.
ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THAWING.
SELECTING DEFROST
HINTS AND TIPS
Turn the main oven temperature control to the
defrost setting.
Place the frozen food in a single layer where
possible and turn it over half way through the
defrosting process.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. When defrost is selected, the oven indicator neon
may come ON. It will stay ON until the oven
reaches room temperature and then go OFF.
It may cycle ON and OFF periodically during
defrosting to maintain
temperature, inside the oven.
a
steady room
2. Care must always 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 defrosting,
preparing, cooking, cooling and freezing foods.
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 AND CLEANING
BEFORE CLEANING ALWAYS ALLOW
THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE
APPLIANCE DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING
OFF AT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
CLEANING THE VITREOUS ENAMEL
Use a clean damp cloth or scourer made for non-
stick saucepans with 'Jif' or 'Flash' cream cleaner.
AFTER CLEANING
CLEANING MATERIALS
To maintain the appearance of the hotplates
occasionally apply a little salt free vegetable oil or
commercial restorative agent e.g. '4 Hob' or use a
'Minky' Hotplate Cleaning Cloth.
Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker,
check that they are suitable and that their use is
recommended by the manufacturer.
To apply vegetable oil, first heat the hotplate on a
medium setting for 30 seconds then turn OFF. Pour
a very small amount of oil onto kitchen paper, apply
the paper to the hotplate and wipe off any excess oil.
Heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 1 minute.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
CLEANING THE SEALED HOTPLATES
AND HOTPLATE TRIMS
To apply restorative agent, apply a thin coating
of '4 Hob' or use a Minky cloth following the
manufacturers instructions.
In order to maintain the appearance of your cooker's
sealed hotplates and trims you are advised to use
the recommended cleaning agents daily. If you do
not allow spillages to burn on they will be much
easier to clean off.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE
COOKER
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials, or
scourers on the outside of the cooker as some of the
finishes are painted and damage may occur.
Regularly wipe over the control panel, splashback,
oven doors and cooker sides using a soft cloth and
liquid detergent.
THINGS TO NOTE
The red spot in the centre of the hotplates may be
removed with some abrasive cleaning agents. This is
not a fault and does not affect the performance of the
hotplate.
FOR NORMAL SOILAGE
Wipe over the hotplates and trims using a clean
damp cloth then switch to a low or medium setting for
a few minutes to thoroughly dry.
FOR HEAVY SOILAGE
Use a clean damp cloth or scourer with a cream
cleaner e.g. 'Jif' or 'Flash' or a powder cleaner e.g.
'Ajax' on the hotplate and trims. Follow the circular
grooved pattern on the hotplate when cleaning.
Rinse off cleaning agents thoroughly. Dry as for
normal soilage.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY OF
PANEL
THE CONTROL KNOBS FROM THE
AS THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND IS A
SAFETY HAZARD
For more stubborn marks warm the hotplate on a low
setting for 30 seconds. Clean the sealed plate with
'Ajax' powder cleaner, 'Jif' or Flash cream cleaner or
a Brillo pad. You may have to rub hard for several
minutes.
Rinse off cleaning agents thoroughly with a damp
cloth. Switch to a low or medium setting for a few
minutes until the hotplate is thoroughly dry.
CLEANING THE HOTPLATE TRIMS
The stainless steel trims may become straw coloured
during use. Using a proprietary stainless steel
cleaner , e.g. 'Shiny Sinks' will help maintain a bright
appearance. Alternatively a powder cleaner such as
'Bar Keepers Friend' may be used regularly.

CLEANING THE GRILL DEFLECTOR,
GRILL PAN, GRILL PAN GRID, MEAT TIN
AND OVEN SHELVES
HINTS AND TIPS
Manual cleaning of Stayclean Surfaces IS NOT
recommended. Damage will occur if oven sprays or
abrasives of any kind are used.
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can
be washed in the dishwasher.
Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean
surface may occur in time. This does not affect the
Stayclean properties in any way.
The grill pan, meat tin and grill deflector may be
cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad.
The grill pan grid and oven shelves should be
cleaned using hot soapy water. Soaking first in soapy
water will make cleaning easier.
A good time to allow the oven to run on is after
the weekly roast. After removing the roast, turn
the oven up to 220°C and allow to run for an hour
or so. It is important NOT to allow a build-up of
soilage as this can prevent the Stayclean from
working.
CLEANING INSIDE THE GRILL/OVEN
COMPARTMENTS
Follow the recommendations below to keep oven
soilage to a minimum.
The sides, top and back of the main fan oven are
coated with a special Stayclean coating.
The Stayclean coating should not be cleaned
manually.
Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher
temperatures during roasting will increase
soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an
increased length of time, you will save energy
and often the joint is more tender.
The vitreous enamel fan oven base, interior oven
door and top oven/ grill compartment 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.
Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting
meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat
before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during
roasting will increase splashing and soilage.
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean
surfaces and must not come into contact with
elements as this may cause damage.
It is NOT necessary to add water to the meat tin
when roasting. The water and the fat juices from
the joint create excessive splattering during
cooking - even at normal temperatures, as well
as causing condensation.
For advice on how to keep the Stayclean coating in
good condition see 'Care of Stayclean Surfaces'.
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. Some large joints and
turkeys especially benefit by this method of
cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before
the outside is over-browned.
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.
Do use the trivet in the roasting tin. During roasting,
the fat from the joint will be contained beneath the
trivet and therefore prevent it from splashing onto the
Stayclean finish.

REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT BULB
The type of bulb required is a 300C 25 watt small Edison
Screw. Part number 572 491 5431-00/1 (Available through
Tricity Bendix service centres).
CAUTION: Disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply before replacing the bulb.
Open the door and remove the shelves to enable
easy access to the oven light assembly. Insert a flat
blade screwdriver between the oven side and the
glass which covers the bulb.
Support the glass with your hand and prise out
sufficiently to release the glass cover. Unscrew the
bulb in a anticlockwise direction until it is possible to
remove the bulb with ease.
Fit the new bulb by turning in a clockwise direction
until it is secure. Ensuring the indent to the flange is
pointing to the rear of the oven, replace the glass by
pushing it firmly into the hole to cover the bulb
assembly.
Replace the shelves. Restore the electricity supply
and adjust the time of day and clock, as necessary.
