Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.   2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so   the food is ready when you require it.   3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.   4. Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as   possible.   5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for automatic   cooking, keep the delay time to a minimum.   6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could   cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.   7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g.   Shepherd's Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay   period.   8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial   growth in food.   9. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so   it is best to add these ingredients just before serving.   10. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in   water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the oven.   11. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.   12. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss   of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.   13. Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.   14. Only reheat food once.   8 Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

For guides on   “pre-heating”, “cooking temperatures” and “cooking times”, see “Oven Temperature   Charts” later in book.   NOTE: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be   necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C. It may also be necessary to   increase or decrease cooking times.   OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR FAN OVEN   Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution   of heat in the oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.   Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven   for cooking as air circulation is restricted.   DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the oven is in use as the   surfaces get extremely hot.   OVEN UTENSILS   Do not use:   Meat pans larger than 375mm x 300mm (15” x 12”)   Baking Trays larger than 325mm x 250mm (13” x10”)   An additional oven shelf can be purchased from your oven supplier if a third   one is required for batch baking. Never use more than three shelves in the oven   as air circulation will be seriously restricted.   TEMPERATURE & TIME   If three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary   to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes,   to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the   larger mass of food. Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven.   16   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

The pilot light (G) will immediately come on, and   remain on until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light   will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven   thermostat maintains the correct temperature.   Step 3 After use turn control (A) to its Off (O) position.   NOTE: At the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff of   steam when the door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds   and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door   seal.   17   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be   damaged in a hot oven.   DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the   oven lining and the plates which are being warmed.   ADVANTAGES OF SLOW COOKING ARE:   The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.   Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.   Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.   Fully loading the oven can be economical.   Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours.   The kitchen stays cooler.   OPERATION:   1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.   2. Turn knob A to   (slow cooking temperature).   E 90   STORAGE & RE-HEATING OF FOOD:   1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately, place it in a clean container and   cool as soon as possible.   2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.   3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.   4. Only re-heat food once.   POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN PREPARING FOOD FOR SLOW COOKING   1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into the oven ensuring enough room   for air to circulate.   2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a minimum of 6 hours,   however, it they are cooked for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their   appearance may be noticed.   3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2.0kg (4lb 8oz).   We do not recommend that joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking   on the slow setting.   4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or poultry at 170oC for 30 minutes   before wrapping in foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air   circulation) before turning the control to the slow setting and cooking immediately.   5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are thoroughly cooked by checking   with a meat thermometer before serving.   6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. We do not recommend   placing frozen food in the oven to cook.   7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the boil before placing in the oven.   8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal (not airtight) and cover to the top   with foil to prevent loss of moisture.   9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even sized small pieces to cook   properly.   10. Always adjust seasoning before serving.   11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important that the beans are soaked and   then boiled for a minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any   toxins.   12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be necessary to check during cooking to   avoid overcooking.   18   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Never allow foil to touch sides of oven. 2. Never cover interior with foil.   3. Never cover shelves with foil.   The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole   poultry is to insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of a joint of meat,   or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat   thermometer will indicate when the required internal temperature has been   reached.   Beef   Pork   Lamb   Poultry   Veal   Rare 60OC   Medium 70OC Well Done 75OC   90OC   80OC   90OC   75OC   20   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Pre-heating of fan ovens – not always necessary.   2. Cooking at too high a temperature – reduce   standard temperatures by 25˚C for fan ovens.   3. Using normal creaming method with a soft   margarine. If using soft margarine, use an all in   one method instead of the traditional creaming of   the margarine and sugar. Remember when using a   food mixer or processor not to over-cream soft   margarine.   Over/undercooking   Refer to the cooking times and temperatures given in   the Oven Temperature Charts provided, however, it   may be necessary to increase or decrease   temperatures by 10˚C to suit personal taste.   l 4 Do not use utensils greater than 56mm (2⁄ '') in height   for roasting.   22   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

At temperatures of 220°C (425°F) or   above, the special surface enables these soils to be   slowly destroyed.   The higher the temperature the more effective it is.   (b) Cleaning.   In most cases normal cooking operations at 220°C   (425°F) will permit this cleaning operation to proceed   during cooking. However if higher cooking   temperatures are not used regularly, it may be   necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run the   ovens without shelves or meat pan, at a maximum   setting for a couple of hours. It should not normally be   necessary to clean the "Stayclean" panels with water.   If the user feels it is desirable to do so, wipe them over   with a clean, soapy cloth, followed by a wipe with a   clean damp cloth.   MAIN OVEN SIDE LINERS   AND REAR PANEL   DO NOT use biological washing powder, harsh   abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind as this   could damage the “Stayclean” oven liners.   23   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   CARE AND CLEANING   2. CLEANING THE OVEN   (a) Base of Main Oven.   Wipe out the oven with a damp soapy cloth. For   more stubborn stains on the base of the oven use a   well soaped fine steel wool soap pad.   REMOVABLE GRILL ROOF PANEL   (NOT ALL MODELS OR MODELS   FITTED WITH HIGH SPEED GRILL)   (b) Grill/Meat Pan & Oven Shelves.   To prevent stains from being burnt on to the grill pan,   food support and rod shelf, always wash immediately   after use in hot soapy water.   Use a well soaped fine steel wool soap pad to   remove stubborn stains from the rod shelves,   grill/meat pan and the base of the oven.   OVEN   SHELVES   GRILL/   MEAT   PAN   MAIN   OVEN   BASE   DO NOT use aerosol cleaners on this oven as they   could adversely affect the fan motor unit, and cannot   be wiped off the fan blade.   (c) Removable Grill Roof Panel (not all models).   Pull grill roof panel out slowly, being careful not to   damage the elements. Clean using a damp soapy   cloth, if stubborn stains remain gently clean with a   well soaped fine steel wool soap pad and soapy   water, and then wipe over with a damp cloth.   (d) Solarplus Grill (not all models).   To clean the Solarplus grill, use a clean, damp, soapy   cloth and wipe over. If stubborn stains remain, gently   clean with a well soaped nylon scouring pad and wipe   over with a damp cloth.   DO NOT use metal cleaning utensils, wire wool or   proprietary oven cleaners on the grill element mesh.   24   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

CONTROL PANEL / TRIMS / INNER DOOR PANEL & GLASS   (a) Control Panel   OVEN   DOOR   Regularly wipe with a clean, damp cloth and polish   with a clean, dry cloth.   (b) Trims   It is advisable to clean the trims regularly to prevent   any build up of soiling which may detract from the   appearance of the cooker. The recommended   method of cleaning is to wipe over the trims with a   clean, soft cloth wrung out in hot water, or mild non   abrasive cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner on a   small area of trim which is not noticeable in normal   use), then after wiping with a cloth wrung out in   clear water, dry with a clean, soft cloth.   (c) Inner Door Panels & Glass   Open the door fully. The glass panel may now be   washed. Stubborn stains can be removed by using a   well soaped, fine steel wool soap pad.   TRIMS   DO NOT use scouring pads, or abrasive powder,   which will scratch the glass.   4.

Do not use scouring pads,   or abrasive powder, which will scratch the glass. Ensure that the glass   panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.   Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool pad. For slight soiling   the inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from   the door. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.   CLEANING THE DOORS   SIDE OPENING DOORS   Cleaning the door glass is the same as the drop down doors, except take   care to support the weight of the inner glass when removing and refitting.   DROP DOWN DOORS   Remove the door inner glass as follows.   1. Open the door fully and unscrew the two screws securing the glass panel so   that the securing brackets can be turned. There is no need to remove the screws   completely.   2. Turn the brackets so that the glass can be   removed and cleaned at the sink (Fig. 1.)   Fig. 1.   Glass   3. The inside of the outer door glass can now be cleaned while still fitted to the   cooker.   NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE INNER DOOR   GLASS IN POSITION.   Refit the door inner glass as follows.   1. NOTE: The inner door glass has a special reflective coating on one side.   Replace the door inner glass so that the statement: “IMPORTANT THIS FACE   TOWARDS THE OVEN” can be read from the inner side of the door.   2. Turn the two securing brackets back to their   original position to retain the glass and tighten   the screws. (Fig. 2.)   Fig. 2.   Glass   26   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

The cooker should be installed in accordance   with the latest Edition of the IEE Regulations.   1. GENERAL   WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.   (a) The oven unit is designed for mounting at a safe level into an oven housing   which must be secured to the backing wall, or alternatively, in the case of the   single oven unit, under a worktop with or without a hob unit above.   (b) In an oven/hob arrangement where it is proposed to install the oven directly   below the hob. It is advisable that only slimline hobs are used which have the   following maximum depths.   Maximum hob depth   Kitchen Worktop thickness   (from worktop surface vertically down)   30mm   40mm   55mm   65mm   Worktop thickness + 25mm   40mm +   It is most important that the hob installation instructions are strictly observed.   27   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS   2. OVEN UNIT HOUSING CABINETS   (a) The oven unit housing cabinet dimensions must comply with Fig. 3 and   Fig. 4.   (b) An air gap of 50mm minimum must be provided at the rear of any top or   bottom cupboards or shelves for ventilation.   (c) Do not obstruct the ventilation slots provided on the oven trim. This is found   adjacent to the bottom of the oven door.   (d) The air gap at the rear allows the warmed air to pass out of the cabinet. If   cabinets extend up to the ceiling, the warm air must be exhausted through   to the front. Fig. 1.   (e) If an oven unit is installed adjacent to a tall cabinet, steam escaping from the   oven when the door is opened could condense on, and perhaps stain the   adjacent surface. To prevent permanent staining, the adjacent surface   should be made of a material that is heat resisting and easy to clean.   Adjacent tall cabinets should not be deeper than the oven housing cabinet.   IMPORTANT   It is essential that the lower cupboard is constructed in the manner illustrated i.e.   having side, back and roof panels so joined as to provide no apertures which could   permit access to the oven unit when installed.   3. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION   Mains Supply   A 20 amp Double Pole control switch with a minimum contact clearance of 3mm   must be fitted on or recessed in the wall adjacent to the oven housing cabinetry   and should be accessible after installation. If the oven is to be wired into a con-   nector unit this may be positioned behind the oven providing:–   i. The top of the connector unit is not more than 30cm above the base of the   oven recess – see Fig. 4.   ii. The depth of the connector unit does not reduce the depth of the oven   recess to less than 55cm.   We recommend that 4mm2 twin and earth PVC insulated cable is used to connect   the cooker to the control unit. This power supply cable must conform to BS 6004.   Alternatively the mains supply can be taken from a household 13 amp switched   fused spur. Having a minimum contact clearance of 3mm which must be fitted   adjacent to the oven housing cabinetry and accessible after installation. The oven   must be fitted with a 3 core cable having a minimum cross sectional area of   1.5mm2 and must conform to BS6500.   The oven must not be connected using a 3 pin 13 amp plug.   28   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS   Any spare cable must be coiled either behind the oven (not more than 30cm above the   base of the oven recess) or pushed into the air gap below the oven after installation.   Where a hob is fitted adjacent to or above an oven a 30 amp or 45 amp double pole switch   with a minimum contact clearance of 3mm should be used to feed both units via separate   suitably rated cables.   Where a hob unit is fitted above the oven unit we recommend that 85oC High Temperature   PVC with insulated 3 core flexible cord to table 15 of BS 6141:1991 with a conductor size   of 2.5mm2 must be used to connect the hob to the control unit.   Where a hob unit is fitted adjacent to the oven unit, then 4mm2 twin and earth cable to BS   6004 is recommended to connect the hob unit to the control unit.   In all cases adhere to routing details (see fig. 5).   Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your   supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate which is located on the oven front frame   (lower).   CONDUIT BOX TO MAINS TERMINAL BLOCK   (a) The oven unit should be placed on the floor on its carton base in front of the   housing cabinet. The rear of the unit should be in line with the conduit box.   (b) Ensure there is sufficient cable for any future servicing.   (c) Remove the terminal cover. Prepare the cable, pass it through the cable   entry hole in the oven rear panel and fit to terminal block. Secure the cable   clamp and replace the terminal cover.   4. FINAL INSTALLATION   (a) Using a spirit level, check that the housing cabinet is level from side to side and   from front to back in its installed position.   (b) Correct any unevenness by placing spacers under the bottom of the cabinet.   Make sure that the cabinet rests firmly on the floor without rocking.   (c) Before the oven is fitted the cabinet must be firmly secured to the backing wall   for stability.   (d) The oven unit should now be lifted (this requires two people) into the cabinet   and pushed fully home.   (e) Finally the oven unit must be secured to the cabinet. Position the oven side trims   equally about the cabinet sides. This should give an overlap of approx. 1.5mm   per side (see Fig. 2). Secure the oven unit to the cabinet, through the side trims,   by means of the four screws provided, two each side trim.   (f) Remove all packing material from the grill and oven interior.   LIST OF LOOSE ITEMS   4 x No.6 Pozi Head screws   29   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
