light will glow when the drawer is on.
Note:
The warmer drawer is not suitable for reheating food from cold.
In models with no electronic clock, the drawer below the oven does not have a heating
element and is therefore used for storage only.
13
Oven functions
Depending on your model, your oven may have only some or all of the functions below.
See sections ‘Oven cooking tips’ and check the ‘Oven cooking charts’ for the recommended shelf
positions.
ALL MODELS
BAKE
This is the traditional method of cooking. It is most suitable for food that
requires long cooking such as rich fruit cakes and traditional roasts. Heat comes
from the top and bottom elements in the oven. The bottom element is
concealed beneath the oven floor. You will achieve a better result with baking
if the oven is preheated first. Cooking one shelf of food at a time is preferable.
Use FAN FORCED for multi-shelf baking (available in four-function and eight-
function models only).
GRILL
GRILL cooks a large area of food by using heat from the upper element and is
suitable for family meals or larger amounts of food. Do not set the temperature
higher than 225oC in this function. We recommend you use 225oC to grill meats.
For best results when grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
FOUR-FUNCTION & EIGHT-FUNCTION MODELS ADD
FAN GRILL
The fan circulates heat from the grill element around the oven. FAN GRILL is
suitable for foods you would normally fry, eg sausages and meatballs. It also
cooks larger cuts of meat and whole chickens well, giving a result that
is similar to a rotisserie. Fan grilling is carried out with the door closed, and the
oven does not need to be preheated. Do not set the temperature higher than
200oC in this function.
FAN FORCED
Fan forced cooking circulates heat from the element around the fan throughout
the oven. This function is particularly good for multi-shelf cooking, batch baking
or cooking several dishes together. Use also for casseroles and baked vegetables,
as you can place them anywhere in the oven except on the oven floor.
14
Oven functions
EIGHT-FUNCTION MODELS ONLY ADD
FAN BAKE
A fan at the rear of the oven circulates hot air from the top and bottom elements
around the oven. The fan tends to dry the surface of the food being cooked,
which makes it suitable for crisping foods, eg slices, pastries and oven-roasted
vegetables. FAN BAKE can be used at a low temperature (50°C) for drying fruit,
vegetables and herbs.
CLASSIC BAKE
CLASSIC BAKE uses heat from the bottom element only. It is particularly suitable
for quiches, pies and slices that require more cooking on the bottom. We
recommend that you preheat the oven on BAKE or FAN BAKE then switch to
CLASSIC BAKE once the oven is at the desired temperature.
ECO GRILL
ECO GRILL is suitable for single servings or small pieces of food. By using it you
can save energy because you heat a smaller portion of the grill element. Do not
set the temperature higher than 225°C in this function. For best results when
grilling, leave the oven door open at the first stop position.
DEFROST
DEFROST allows you to defrost food using the oven fan without any heat. This
prevents food from drying out or starting to cook. Leave the temperature
setting at the
o
(OFF) position as no heat is required. Defrosting this way is
particularly good for delicate foods. Remove food from the oven as soon as it is
thawed.

Oven cooking tips
Generally, the top shelf positions are for grilling, and the middle and lower positions are suitable
for baking, roasting and casseroles. Do not place anything on the oven floor.
Important!
Do not place aluminium foil, dishes with reflective qualities, water, ice or any object on the oven floor as this
will cause a heat build-up which irreversibly damages the enamel.
Baking
Always position the oven shelves before turning the oven on.
Grease tins and line bases with non-stick paper. For rich mixtures and fruitcakes, line the sides of
the tins as well.
Turn cakes onto baking racks when cool. Leave sponges in tins for at least 10 minutes before
inverting.
Always preheat the oven until the temperature indicator light turns off. This is particularly
important when baking.
Grilling
The length of time your food takes to grill will be affected by its thickness and temperature.
When grilling thicker items such as sausages, turn them often to ensure even browning.
Always grill with the door open to the first stop position unless you use FAN GRILL, when the
door should be closed and the oven does not need preheating.
The door and cooktop may become hot. Take care and keep children away.
Roasting
A large piece of meat requires fewer minutes per 500 g than a smaller piece. Meat with a bone
will cook faster than a rolled roast.
Do not add water to your roast as this has a steaming effect.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure an accurate result. As the internal temperature of the meat
will continue to rise during standing, please allow for this in your calculation. This is particularly
important if you want a rare or medium rare roast.

Using the ceramic glass cooktop
The ceramic cooktop is made from glass ceramic, a tough material that is not affected by
changes in temperature. If cared for, it will continue to function well and look attractive for many
years.
Temperature limiters are fitted to the elements to prevent the glass from overheating. The
limiters may turn the elements on and off during cooking.
Aluminium and copper cookware can leave a metallic residue on the glass surface. Clean this off
with ceramic glass cleaner after every use. If it is left, it becomes difficult to remove. See section
‘Care and cleaning’.
To start cooking
Turn the knob of the cooking zone you wish to use to HI, then adjust as necessary.

Cookware
To get the best use out of your cooktop, consider the following points when selecting pots and
pans.
It is important that the bottoms of the pots and pans are the same size as the cooking zone or
element.
A flat base makes better contact with the cooking zone or element, resulting in shorter cooking
times.
Aluminium and copper cookware can leave a metallic residue on the glass surface. Clean this off
with ceramic glass cleaner after every use. If it is left, it becomes difficult to remove. See section
‘Care and cleaning’.
Jagged edges on saucepans or heavy frypans may scratch element coils of the ceramic glass.
Round-based woks should NOT be used on radiant elements without a wok ring as they will
damage the element bowls.
Always lift pots and pans off ceramic glass cooktops – do not slide, or they may scratch the
cooktop surface.
24
Care and cleaning
Important!
Always disconnect the cooker from the power supply before any cleaning or maintenance.
Before any cleaning or maintenance, make sure the part of the cooker you are about to handle or
clean is a safe temperature to touch.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, scourers, pads or steel wool to clean any part of the cooker. These
will dull the appearance of enamel surfaces and scratch the glass. Some nylon scourers may also
scratch. Check the label.
Do not use a steam cleaner.
Be sure that all the controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of
aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. Chemicals in such cleaners could, in the presence of
heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

GENERAL ADVICE
Wipe out the oven and wipe down the
cooktop after every use, especially if there
has been a food spill. Regular cleaning will
prevent stains from becoming stubborn
and more difficult to remove later.
Avoid leaving alkaline or
acidic substances (such as
lemon juice, vinegar or salty
spills) on the enamel surfaces
(oven cavity, radiant element
bowls, radiant cooktop).
