THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS  
Your cooker has a cooling fan fitted behind the  
controls to prevent them from overheating.  
The cooling fan will come on immediately when  
the grill control and Multifunction Selector  
control are switched on. The cooling fan may  
come on after a short time when the top oven is  
in use.  
The cooling fan may turn on and off when the  
cooker is in use. This is quite normal.  
The cooling fan may run on after the ovens or  
grill are switched off for a period of time to cool  
the cooker down. It may continue to switch on  
and off until the cooker is cool.  
Always allow the cooling fan to cool  
the cooker down before switching off  
at the wall prior to carrying out any  
cleaning or maintenance work.  
NOTE  
The action of the cooling fan will depend on  
how long the ovens or grill have been used and  
at what temperature. It may not switch in at all  
at lower temperature settings nor run on where  
the grill or oven has only been used for a short  
time.  
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR  
NEONS  
These lights indicate whether the ovens or grill  
are switched on. When the grill or ovens are  
switched on the neon illuminates. In the case of  
the ovens, the top and main oven neons also  
indicate when the set temperature has been  
reached. They will cycle on and off during use  
to show that the temperature is being  
maintained.  
The grill neon does not turn on and off when  
the grill is in use.  
The main oven neon does not operate with  
Defrost or the Oven Light functions.  
The Selector neon operates when the  
Multifunction Selector control is set. It does not  
turn on and off when in use.  
The Selector neon will illuminate with all main  
oven functions.  
If the neons do not operate as the instructions  
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.  
Return all controls to zero and re-set following  
the instructions for the required setting.

BEFORE USING THE COOKER  
WHEN FIRST SWITCHING ON  
The timer must be set to manual operation  
before the Multifunction main oven can be  
operated. This must be done whenever the  
cooker is switched off at the wall or when there  
has been a power failure. For instructions on  
how to set the timer see page 11.  
If the Main oven indicator neon does not glow  
when the oven temperature control is turned, it  
is most likely that the timer is set for automatic  
cooking.  
The Top Oven and the Dual Grill are not  
controlled by the electronic timer.  
RATING PLATE  
Record the model, serial and product numbers  
of your cooker on the back page of this  
instruction book for future reference. You can  
find these numbers on the rating plate on the  
front frame of the cooker upon opening the top  
oven door.  
The cooker must be protected by a suitably  
rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the  
cooker is given on the rating plate.  
PREPARING TO USE YOUR  
COOKER  
We suggest that you run the oven elements for  
10 - 15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any  
residue from their surfaces.  
The procedure should be repeated with the grill  
for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.  
During this period an odour may be emitted, it is  
therefore advisable to open a window for  
ventilation.  
CONDENSATION AND STEAM  
When food is heated it produces steam in the  
same way as a boiling kettle does. The ovens  
are vented to allow some of this steam to  
escape. However, always stand back from the  
cooker when opening the oven doors 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 cooker, e.g. a trim, it will  
condense and produce water droplets. This is  
quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the  
cooker.  
To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly  
wipe away condensation and any soilage from  
the cooker surfaces.

COOKWARE  
Baking trays, 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.  
Advice on the effect of different materials and  
finishes of bakeware is given in 'Hints and Tips'  
in the appropriate oven section.  
THE TRIVET  
When roasting we recommend that you use the  
trivet in the meat tin. Fat and meat juices will  
drain into the meat tin below and can be used  
to make gravy. The trivet also prevents  
splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.  
Note. The meat tin should not be placed on a  
heated hotplate as this may cause the enamel  
to crack.

THE DUAL GRILL  
WARNING - Accessible parts become  
hot when the grill is in use. Keep  
children away.  
USES OF THE GRILL  
The grill is situated in the Top oven  
compartment.  
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that  
the full area of the grill or the centre section  
only can be used. Use the full grill for cooking  
larger quantities of food. Use the centre section  
for economy purposes when cooking smaller  
quantities.  
DUAL GRILL  
HOW TO USE THE DUAL  
GRILL  
1.Open the Grill / Top Oven door.  
2.Turn the grill control clockwise for full grill or  
anticlockwise for the centre section only.  
3.Ensure the Top Oven control is in the Off  
position '0'.  
TOP OVEN  
The grill door must be left open when  
grilling.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
as soon as the grill control is turned. For  
more information on the operation of the  
cooling fan turn to page 7.  
The outer section of the grill element may  
appear to glow brighter than the inner  
section. This is quite normal.  
The grill indicator neon will illuminate.  
You can use the grill pan on the shelf in  
positions 3 and 5 only.  
If you use the grill pan in position 3 the shelf  
must be withdrawn before the pan can be  
located or removed.

THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE  
The grill pan has 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.  
Ensure the handle is positively located.  
To remove 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.  
Protect your hands when removing the  
grill pan handle.  
Always remove the grill pan handle  
during grilling.  
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  
attend to food during cooking.  
Ensure that you support the grill pan  
when it is withdrawn.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Most foods should be placed on the grilling  
grid in the grill pan. This allows maximum  
circulation of air by raising the food out of fats  
and juices. Foods such as fish, liver and  
kidneys may be placed directly on the trivet in  
the grill pan if preferred.  
Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to  
allow for different thicknesses of food.  
Position the food close to the element for  
faster cooking and further away for more  
gentle cooking.  
16  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The grill pan grid is reversible. This is useful if  
you want to cook foods of varying thickness.  
As a general rule, bread for toasting should  
be placed on the grid in the ' high ' position in  
the grill pan. Foods such as chicken pieces or  
chops may be grilled using the grilling grid in  
the low position.  
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.  
The food should be turned over during  
cooking as required.  
The grill door must be left open when grilling.  
For convenience the grill door can be left  
ajar.  
Preheat the grill on full setting for a few  
minutes before sealing steaks or toasting.  
Adjust the heat setting and the shelf position  
as necessary during cooking.

THE TOP OVEN  
USES OF THE TOP OVEN  
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens.  
The top oven is a conventional oven i.e. without  
a fan. It is convenient where smaller quantities  
or convenience foods are being cooked. It is  
important to refer to the top oven cooking chart  
as a guide to shelf positions and temperatures  
as these may differ from previous cookers you  
may have used.  
The top oven is also ideal for use as warming  
compartment to warm dishes and keep food  
hot. Use a temperature setting of 80°C - 100°C  
on the top oven temperature control.  
HOW TO USE THE TOP OVEN  
TOP OVEN  
1.Turn the Top Oven temperature control to the  
required setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The top oven indicator neon will glow until the  
oven has reached the desired temperature  
and then go out. It will turn on and off  
periodically during cooking showing that the  
temperature is being maintained.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
after a time. See page 7 for more information  
on the operation of the cooling fan.  
The top oven works independently of the  
main oven and is not controlled by the  
multifunction selector.  
Do not place dishes, tins and trays  
directly on the oven base as it becomes  
very hot and damage will occur.  
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF  
There are 5 shelf positions in the top oven.  
Shelf positions are counted from the bottom  
upwards.

HINTS AND TIPS  
Use the top oven when you want to warm  
plates. Use a setting of 80°C - 100°C on the  
oven temperature control.  
You can only cook on one shelf when using  
the top oven. For the best results food should  
be placed in the centre of the oven. To  
increase top browning e.g. for au gratin  
dishes, the food should be placed towards  
the top of the oven. Similarly for foods which  
benefit from the base being browned, e.g.  
pizza, quiches and flans place the food on a  
lower shelf.  
5

There should always be at least 2.5cm (1")  
between the top of the food and the grill  
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.  
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the  
shelf and there is sufficient room around the  
baking tray or dish to allow for maximum  
circulation.  
Where a larger quantity of food is to be  
cooked we recommend you use the main  
oven.  
Place dishes on a suitably sized baking tray  
on the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven  
base and to help reduce cleaning.  
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.  
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as a  
baking tray as this will increase base  
browning of the food.  
Because of the smaller cooking space and  
lower temperatures, shorter cooking times  
are sometimes required. Be guided by the  
recommendations in the cooking chart.  
For economy leave the door open for the  
shortest possible time, particularly when  
placing food into a pre-heated oven.

When roasting we recommend that you use  
the trivet in the meat tin. Fat and meat juices  
will drain into the meat tin below and can be  
used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents  
splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.  
Note. The meat tin should not be placed on a  
heated hotplate as this may cause the enamel  
to crack.

THE FAN OVEN  
USES OF THE FAN OVEN  
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking  
larger quantities of food.  
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:  
PREHEATING  
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature  
so it not usually necessary to preheat the oven.  
Without preheating however you may 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 28 until you are familiar with the lower  
temperatures associated with Fan oven  
cooking. As a guide reduce temperatures by  
20°C - 25°C for your own recipes.  
BATCH BAKING  
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels,  
especially useful when batch baking.  
MAIN OVEN  
HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN  
1.Turn the Selector to Fan Oven.  
2.Turn the oven temperature control to the  
required setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The oven light will come on when the  
Selector is set.  
SELECTOR  
The oven fan will operate continually during  
cooking.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
when the Selector is turned. See page 7 for  
further details on the operation of the cooling  
fan.  
The main oven indicator neon will glow until  
the oven has reached the desired  
temperature. It will turn on and off periodically  
during cooking showing that the temperature  
is being maintained.  
The Selector indicator neon will glow  
throughout cooking.  
If an automatic programme has been set, the  
oven fan and oven light do not come on until  
the cook time begins.

Back of the oven  
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.  
Straight Rods  
14  
Frame  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Arrange the shelves in the required positions  
before switching the oven on. Shelves are  
numbered from the bottom upwards.  
1
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 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.  
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 28.  
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 CONVENTIONAL OVEN  
USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL  
OVEN  
This form of cooking gives you the opportunity  
to cook without the fan in operation. It is  
particularly suitable for dishes which require  
extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches  
and flans. Gratin's, lasagne and hotpots which  
require extra top browning also cook well in the  
conventional oven. You can only cook on one  
shelf when using the conventional oven setting.  
MAIN OVEN  
HOW TO USE THE  
CONVENTIONAL OVEN  
1.Turn the Selector to Conventional Oven.  
2.Turn the oven temperature control to the  
required setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
SELECTOR  
The main oven indicator neon will glow until  
the oven has reached the desired  
temperature and then go out. It will turn on  
and off showing that the oven temperature is  
being maintained.  
The Selector indicator neon will glow  
throughout cooking.  
The internal oven light operates when the  
Selector is set. If an automatic cooking  
programme is set, the oven light will come on  
when the cook time begins.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
when the Selector is turned. It may run on  
after the controls are switched off until the  
cooker has cooled. See page 7 for more  
details on the operation of the cooling fan.  
Do not place dishes, tin or baking trays  
directly on the oven base as it becomes  
very hot and damage will occur.  
24  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
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.  
The material and finish of the baking trays  
and dishes used will affect base browning.  
Enamelware, dark heavy or non-stick utensils  
increase base browning, while oven  
glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel  
trays reflect the heat away and give less base  
browning.  
Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to  
ensure even browning.  
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to  
prevent spillage onto the base of the oven  
and make cleaning easier.  
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  
want to cook on more than one level use the  
fan or zoned oven functions.

THE ZONED OVEN  
USES OF THE ZONED OVEN  
This form of cooking is similar to a gas oven  
where 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.  
MAIN OVEN  
HOW TO USE THE ZONED  
OVEN  
1.Turn the Selector to Zoned Oven.  
2.Turn the main oven temperature control to  
the required setting.  
SELECTOR  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The main oven indicator neon will glow until  
the oven has reached the desired  
temperature and then go out. It will then turn  
on and off showing that the oven temperature  
is being maintained.  
The Selector neon will glow throughout  
cooking.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
when the Selector is turned. It may run on  
after the controls are switched off until the  
cooker has cooled. See page 7 for further  
details on the cooling fan.  
If an automatic cooking programme is set, the  
oven light will come on when the cook time  
begins.  
26  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
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 28 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  
It is best to cover dishes where practical for  
part of the cooking time to prevent over  
browning. Covering the food will also reduce  
fat splashing onto the oven interior and help  
to keep the oven clean. Uncover food for the  
last 15-30 minutes of cooking time to allow  
the food to brown.  
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the  
shelves and that there is sufficient room  
around the dishes to allow for maximum air  
circulation.  
The use of enamelware or dark, heavy or  
non- stick utensils will help to increase base  
browning for dishes such as Yorkshire  
pudding, pies etc.  
For faster preheating use the fan oven  
function to preheat the oven until the main  
oven indicator neon goes out, then switch to  
the zoned oven following the times,  
temperatures  
and  
shelf  
positions  
recommended in the cook chart.

DEFROST FEATURE  
USES OF DEFROST FEATURE  
This main oven function enables you to defrost  
most foods without heat 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.  
MAIN OVEN  
HOW TO DEFROST  
1.Turn the Selector to Defrost setting.  
2.The Main Oven temperature control should  
be at the Off '0' position.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
SELECTOR  
The oven fan and internal oven light will  
operate.  
The Selector indicator neon only will  
illuminate.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
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.  
It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry  
slowly in the fridge. However, this process  
can be accelerated by using the defrost  
function. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen  
peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver,  
thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 -  
2 hours.  
29  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
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.  
All joints of meat and poultry must be thawed  
thoroughly before cooking.  
Always cook thoroughly immediately after  
thawing.  
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. Always follow the basic  
rules of food hygiene to prevent bacterial  
growth and cross contamination when  
defrosting, preparing, cooking cooling and  
freezing foods.

THERMAL GRILLING  
USES OF THERMAL GRILLING  
Thermal grilling in the main oven offers an  
alternative method of cooking food items  
normally associated with conventional grilling.  
Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking  
smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill with  
the oven door closed. The need to check and  
turn food is reduced. With the exception of toast  
and rare steaks you can thermal grill all the  
foods you would normally cook under a  
conventional grill.  
Dishes prepared in advance such as  
shepherd's pie, lasagne and au gratin's can be  
heated through and browned on the top using  
the thermal grilling function.  
COOKING TIMES  
Cooking is more gentle, therefore food  
generally takes a little longer to cook when  
thermal grilling compared with conventional  
grilling. One of the advantages is that larger  
quantities can be cooked at the same time.  
A general guide to cooking times is given on  
page 34 but these times may vary slightly  
depending on the thickness and quantity of  
food being cooked.  
HOW TO THERMAL GRILL  
MAIN OVEN  
Always thermal grill with the oven door  
closed and with the grill pan handle  
removed.  
1.Turn the Selector to Thermal Grill.  
2.Turn the main oven temperature control to  
the required setting. (A temperature of  
between 140°C and 220°C is suitable for  
thermal grilling).  
SELECTOR  
3.Remove the handle from the grill pan and  
close the oven door.  
31  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The main oven indicator neon will glow until  
the oven has reached the desired  
temperature and then go out. It will turn on  
and off showing that the oven temperature is  
being maintained.  
The Selector indicator neon will glow  
throughout cooking.  
The oven fan will operate continually during  
thermal grilling.  
The oven light will come on when the selector  
is set.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
when the Selector is turned. It may run on  
after the controls are switched off until the  
cooker has cooled. See page 7 for more  
details on the operation of the cooling fan.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
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.  
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. Foods such as fish, liver and kidneys  
may be placed directly onto the trivet in the  
grill pan if preferred.  
The use of the trivet beneath the grid when  
grilling fatty foods will help minimise fat  
splashing.  
Accompaniments such as tomatoes and  
mushrooms may be placed below the grid  
when grilling meats, or in a separate dish on  
a lower shelf.  
32  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Foods will cook more quickly the closer they  
are to the grill element and the higher the  
temperatures selected. Be prepared to adjust  
temperatures and shelf positions during  
cooking if necessary.  
Turn food over during cooking as necessary.  
Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled  
dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka,  
lasagne, etc., are piping hot throughout  
before serving.  
A temperature range of 140°-220°C and shelf  
positions 9 and 10 are suitable for most  
foods. Be prepared to make suitable  
adjustments during cooking to suit individual  
requirements. If thermal grilling on more than  
one level, it may be necessary to interchange  
the food on the shelves during cooking.

CARE AND CLEANING  
Before cleaning the cooker always  
allow the cooling fan for the controls to  
cool the cooker down before switching  
off the electricity supply.  
CLEANING MATERIALS  
Before using any cleaning materials on your  
cooker, check that they are suitable and that  
their use is recommended by the manufacturer.  
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be  
used as they may dull the surface finishes.  
Harsh abrasives should also be avoided.  
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  
and oven doors using a soft cloth well wrung  
out in warm water to which a little liquid  
detergent has been added.  
Do not attempt to remove any of the  
control knobs from the panel as this  
may cause damage and is a safety  
hazard.

CLEANING THE OUTER AND  
INNER DOOR GLASS PANELS  
To prevent damaging or weakening  
the door glass panels avoid the use of  
the following:  
Household detergents and bleaches  
Impregnated pads unsuitable for  
non-stick saucepans  
Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads  
Chemical oven pads or aerosols  
Rust removers  
Bath/Sink stain removers  
The outer oven door glass panels are  
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.  
Grill Door Trim  
2.Loosen the two screws using a Pozidrive  
screwdriver.  
3.Holding the door glass securely in place with  
one hand remove the screws and washers  
with the other hand.  
The screws and washers retain the trim on  
the top of the grill door. Note the position of  
the trim on the door.  
4.Holding the door and glass with one hand,  
gently pull towards you and slightly lift the  
door glass with the other hand to disengage  
the panel from the location point at the  
bottom of the door. Gently release the door to  
close it.  
5.Clean the outer and inner glass using hot  
soapy water or Hob Brite. Should the inner  
face of the outer door glass be heavily soiled  
it is recommended that soapy water with a  
high concentration of soap is used. To  
prevent streaking a glass cleaning spray may  
be applied and the glass polished with a soft  
cloth. Ensure that all parts are well rinsed  
and thoroughly dry before attempting to  
replace the outer door glass.  
If the door glass panel becomes  
chipped or has deep scratches the  
glass will be weakened and must be  
replaced to prevent the possibility of  
the panel shattering. Please contact  
your local Service Centre who will be  
pleased to advise further.

2.Holding the door glass with your left hand,  
use your right hand to open the oven door.  
Bring the door gently towards the glass panel  
ensuring the screw location holes line up.  
3.Place the trim in the correct position on the  
top of the grill door.  
4.Hold the glass in place with one hand and  
insert the cross head screws with washers  
into the location holes with the other hand.  
Give the screws one turn to ensure the glass  
is secure.  
5.Tighten the screws positively with a Pozidrive  
screwdriver before closing the oven door.  
DO NOT attempt to use the oven  
without the glass being in place.  
TO CLEAN THE INNER GLASS  
DOOR  
The inner glass door is not removable. Clean  
using hot soapy water or Hob Brite and a soft  
cloth. DO NOT use abrasives as they may  
damage the glass or seal.  
CLEANING THE MAIN OVEN  
The main oven top, sides and back panel are  
coated with a Stayclean finish.  
The Stayclean areas in the main oven should  
not be cleaned manually. See Oven Clean  
Feature on page 40.  
The main 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.  
Do not use any cleaning agents or scrapers on  
the oven side, back panels and door seal.  
Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel  
wool pads, aerosol cleaners or any abrasive  
cleaners are used.

OVEN CLEAN FEATURE  
USES OF OVEN CLEAN  
The main oven top, sides and back panel are  
coated with a Stayclean finish.  
During normal use the Stayclean coating on the  
oven interior will become splashed with fats and  
food residues. When Oven Clean is selected,  
the Stayclean surfaces burn off any soilage.  
Regular use of the Oven Clean function will  
help to keep the panels in good condition.  
MAIN OVEN  
HOW TO USE OVEN CLEAN -  
MAIN OVEN ONLY  
1.Remove oven shelves, wirework runners and  
bakeware from oven.  
2.Turn the Selector to Oven Clean.  
3.Turn the main oven temperature control to  
220°C and allow the oven to run for an hour  
or so.  
SELECTOR  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The main oven indicator neon will glow until  
the oven has reached the desired  
temperature and then go out. It will then turn  
on and off showing that the oven temperature  
is being maintained.  
The Selector indicator neon will glow  
throughout the oven cleaning cycle.  
The internal oven light will come on when the  
selector is set.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
when the Selector is turned when oven clean  
is selected. It may run on after the controls  
are switched off until the cooker has cooled.  
See page 7 for more details on the operation  
of the cooling fan.  
The oven fan operates continually when oven  
clean is selected.

HINTS AND TIPS  
Slight discolouration and polishing of the  
Stayclean surfaces may occur in time, but  
this will not affect their self cleaning  
properties.  
A good time to use the oven clean function is  
after the weekly roast.  
If you do a lot of roasting and very little  
baking you should follow the cleaning cycle  
every week. If you roast very little you will  
only need to follow the cleaning cycle every 2  
- 3 weeks.  
Follow the recommendations below to keep  
soilage to a minimum.  
COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE  
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.  
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.  
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,  
condensation.  
as  
well  
as  
causing  
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  
overbrowned.  
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 splattering onto the Stayclean  
finish.

2.Open the oven door and remove the shelves  
and wirework runners.  
Instructions on how to remove the wirework  
runners are given on page 38.  
3.Pull the glass bulb cover towards you and  
then pull it off. If necessary use a screwdriver  
to carefully lever off the cover, taking care not  
to damage the oven cavity.  
4.Unscrew the bulb by turning it to the left.  
5.Fit a new bulb and then replace the glass  
bulb cover.
