INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
GETTING THINGS READY  
THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW  
CHOICE OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION  
WARNINGS:  
There are two possible ways to connect your  
cooker, please choose from the most appropriate  
after reading the descriptions.  
This cooker must be installed by a qualified  
Safety may be  
electrician/competent person.
impaired if installation is not carried out in  
accordance with these instructions.  
a) It is recommended that this appliance is wired  
with suitably rated cable (min 13 A), into fixed  
wiring using a double pole isolator with at least  
3mm contact separation in all poles and neutral,  
located within 2m of the appliance. If this fixed  
wiring circuit is only supplying the cooker, then a  
This cooker must be earthed.  
Do not remove the screws from the earth tab  
extending from the oven mains terminal block  
(Fig. 8).  
fuse of 13A ( or circuit breaker ) should be  
incorporated. When the circuit combines oven  
and hob, then wire and fuse rating should be  
increased accordingly.  
Before connecting the cooker make sure that the  
voltage of your electricity supply is the same as  
that indicated on the rating plate. The rating plate  
can be seen by opening the oven door and  
looking below the oven door seal.  
Subject to Regional Electricity Company  
regulations if you wish to connect the  
oven and hob to the power supply you  
may use one of the following two  
methods:-  
Do not alter the electrical circuitry of this cooker.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
This cooker is designed to be fitted in cabinets of  
the recommended dimensions as shown (Fig. 3  
and 4) without any modification to the cabinet.  
b) If you wish to connect an oven and a hob to a  
cooker point you can:-  
If your cabinet interior dimension is  
between 565-570.mm the oven may still  
be fitted. However, a minor modification to  
the cabinet will be required.  
i) By connecting the oven and hob separately  
to the cooker point. Oven and hob units  
should be separately connected to a control  
panel. In this case the cooker should be  
operated from 6mm² twin core, and earth,  
PVC insulated multicore cable. See Fig. 1.  
The dimensions given provide adequate air  
circulation around the unit within the cabinet,  
ensuring compliance with BS EN60-335.  
Enquiries regarding the installation of the cooker  
point if required should be made to your Regional  
Electricity Company to ensure compliance with  
their regulations.  
The cooker point should be within 2m of the  
cooker to make it accessible to switch off the  
cooker in case of an emergency.  
To protect the hands wear gloves when lifting the  
oven into its housing.

ii) By connecting the cooker point to the hob and  
then connecting the hob to the oven. Provided  
that the hob manufacturer permits it, connect  
the oven to the hob and the hob to the cooker  
point using the same cabling as described in  
(a) above. Check the hob terminal block is  
large enough to take two cables and is of  
suitable rating. If not b) i) on page 8 must be  
used. See Fig. 2.  
NOTE: 13 amp cable is not suitable for  
connecting this application.  
Fig.2  
NOTE: It is good practice to:  
Fit an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker to your  
house wiring.  
Wire your appliance to the latest IEE regulations.  
PREPARING CABINET FOR FITTING OF OVEN  
Make sure the cabinet is the correct size for the  
appliance to be fitted (Ref. Fig. 3 and 4.)  
If the size is between 565-570mm, then the  
cabinet should be modified so that at the screw  
fixing points the recommended dimension of at  
least 560-565mm is maintained. The modification  
should ideally be localised to ensure that after  
screw fitment the oven is securely fixed into  
position.  
The cabinet must be stable and level by firmly  
securing it to the wall or floor. If necessary, make  
arrangements to ensure the shelf upon which the  
oven will rest is level.

RATING PLATE  
COOKWARE  
Record the model, product 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  
cooker and can be seen upon opening the oven  
door.  
Baking trays, oven 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.  
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS  
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill  
is switched on and after a short time when the oven  
is in use.  
The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated  
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker is  
given on the rating plate.  
During the initial period the cooling fan may cycle ON  
and OFF, this is quite normal.  
It runs on after the controls are switched off until the  
appliance has cooled. If an automatic programme  
has been set, the cooling fan does not come on until  
the cooktime begins.  
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR OVEN  
We suggest that you run all the elements for a short  
period to burn off any residue from their surfaces.  
To do this, run the oven at 220°C for approximately  
45 minutes. The procedure should be repeated with  
the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.  
Do not switch off the cooker at its power point before  
the cooling fan has cooled the appliance down.  
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEON  
During this period an unpleasant odour may be  
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window  
for ventilation.  
This light indicates whether the oven is switched ON.  
The neon also indicates when the set temperature  
has been reached.  
WHEN FIRST SWITCHING ON  
If the neon does not operate as the instructions  
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.  
Return all controls to zero and reset following the  
instructions for the required setting.  
When the oven is set for automatic cooking the neon  
should remain unlit during OFF periods.  
The timer must be set to manual before the oven can  
be operated. See page 17. This must be done  
whenever the cooker is switched off at the wall or  
when there has been a power failure.  
If the oven indicator neon does not glow when the  
controls are switched on, it is most likely that the  
timer is set for automatic cooking.  
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM  
When food is heated it produces steam in the same  
way as a boiling kettle does. The oven is vented to  
allow some of this steam to escape. However,  
always stand back from the cooker 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 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, regularly wipe away  
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

THE DUAL GRILL  
USES OF THE DUAL 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 the centre section only can  
be used for economy purposes when cooking smaller quantities of food.  
SELECTING THE GRILL  
1) Turn the selector to dual grill.  
2) Turn the grill control clockwise for full grill or  
anticlockwise for the centre section only.  
19  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the  
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to  
food during cooking or the carrier shelf can be lifted  
away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant  
work surface.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
THE OVEN DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING  
GRILLING  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate when  
grilling.  
The outer grill element may appear to glow  
slightly brighter than the inner element. This is  
quite normal.  
The grill operates independently of the oven.  
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE  
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
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.  
Most foods should be placed on the grid in the  
grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift  
the food out of the fats and juices. Food such as  
fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly on  
the grill pan if preferred.  
Ensure the handle is positively located.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.

Cook toast and rare steaks using the preheated  
full heat grill. All other foods cook very  
successfully on thermal grill.  
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top  
runner position is used with the grid in its 'High'  
position.  
Preheat the grill on full setting fro a few minutes  
before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat  
setting and the shelf as necessary during  
cooking.  
The food should be turned over during cooking  
as required.

THE FAN OVEN  
USES OF THE FAN OVEN  
The oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven,  
the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of  
fanned oven cooking are:  
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 24. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C-25°C for your own recipes.  
BATCH BAKING  
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.  
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN  
1) Ensure the selector is set to Fan Oven.  
2) Turn the temperature control to the required setting.  
22  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria  
sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be  
cooked in the same time.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The oven 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.  
The oven fan will operate continually during  
cooking.  
The interior oven light will come on when the  
temperature is selected.  
If an automatic programme is set, the oven fan  
and light do not come on until cooking begins.  
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 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 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 may 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 see page 24.  
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.

THERMAL GRILLING  
USES OF THERMAL GRILLING  
The lower part of the oven can be used to cook  
accompaniments at the same time, e.g. tomatoes  
and mushrooms with a mixed grill or breakfast.  
Thermal grilling offers an alternative method  
of cooking food items normally associated  
with conventional grilling.  
Dishes prepared in advance such as shepherd's pie,  
lasagne and au gratins can be heated through and  
browned on the top using the thermal grilling function.  
The grill element and the oven fan operate together,  
circulating hot air around the food. The need to  
check and turn food is reduced. Thermal grilling  
helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and  
allows you to grill with the oven door closed.  
With the exception of toast and rare steaks you can  
thermal grill all the foods you would normally cook  
under a conventional grill.

1) Turn the selector to Thermal Grill.  
2) Turn the oven temperature control to the required  
setting. (A temperature of between 140°C and  
220°C is suitable for thermal grilling). Use the  
grilling chart on page 27 as a guide.  
The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has  
reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will  
cycle ON and OFF showing that the oven temperature  
is being maintained.  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate  
immediately in conjunction with the thermal grilling  
function. It may cycle on and off during the initial period  
which is quite normal.  
The internal light will come on.  
Warning: Do not auto-time this function.  
Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells  
in the kitchen and is carried out with the oven  
door closed and the grill pan handle removed.

HINTS AND TIPS  
Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled  
dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka, lasagne,  
etc., are piping hot throughout before serving.  
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.  
A temperature range of 140-220°C and shelf  
positions 3 and 4 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.  
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 loads can be cooked at the  
same time.  
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.  
A general guide to cooking times is given below but  
these times may vary slightly depending on the  
thickness and quantity of food being cooked.

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 function enables you to defrost most foods  
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.  
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.  
It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly  
in the fridge. However, this process can be  
accelerated by using the defrost function.  
ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY  
AFTER THAWING.  
SELECTING DEFROST  
1) Turn the selector to fan oven.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
2) Turn the oven temperature control to 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  
The oven light will illuminate.  
The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by  
room temperature. On warm days defrosting will  
be faster than on cooler days.  
The indicator neon should remain unlit.  
When defrost is selected, the oven indicator neon  
may occasionally come ON. It will stay ON until  
the oven reaches room temperature and then go  
OFF.  
DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it  
is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store  
cooked food in the fridge.  
It may cycle ON and OFF periodically during  
defrosting to maintain steady room temperature  
inside the oven.  
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.

HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD  
Care must 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 preparing, reheating, cooking,  
cooling, defrosting and freezing foods.  
10. Cook meat thoroughly - use a meat thermometer  
if preferred, which penetrates the joint to check  
that the centre temperature has reached the  
required temperature (see table below).  
MEAT  
Beef  
TEMPERATURES  
1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good  
quality and in prime condition. Shop at a reliable  
source and buy the 'freshest' looking package -  
avoid shop worn labels or produce covered in  
dust.  
Rare - 60°C  
Medium - 70°C  
Well Done - 80°C  
Pork  
Well Done - 80°C  
2. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you  
cannot store them straight away. The use of an  
insulated container when shopping is advisable.  
Lamb  
Medium - 70°C  
Well Done - 80°C  
3. Buy and consume foods prior to the 'Sell by' or  
'Best Before' date.  
11. If not eaten straight away after cooking, food  
should be cooled as quickly as possible (within  
one hour) and then refrigerated or frozen as  
required. Do not put hot food into a refrigerator  
or freezer.  
4. When you arrive home, place perishable foods in  
the refrigerator or freezer immediately. Ensure  
they are well covered to prevent them drying out  
and to prevent any possible cross contamination  
with bacteria from raw to cooked foods.  
12. In the kitchen keep worktops, chopping boards  
and utensils clean with hot soapy water between  
preparation stages. Ideally, keep one chopping  
board for raw meat and another for other foods.  
Keep your dish cloths and tea towels clean.  
5. Follow the cooking instructions on packets of  
prepacked and cook chill foods, but be prepared  
to adjust cooking times and temperatures to suit  
your particular oven. For example, the Fan Oven  
generally requires 20-25°C lower temperature  
than a conventional oven.  
6. Always ensure that cook chill foods are  
thoroughly reheated until they are piping  
hot throughout.  
7. It is preferable to defrost frozen foods slowly in  
the refrigerator. Alternatively,  
a
microwave  
cooker or the Defrost function on your oven may  
be used.  
8. Always cook defrosted foods immediately after  
thawing. Thawed food should never be refrozen.  
9. Joints of meat and poultry should be thoroughly  
defrosted before cooking.

CARE AND CLEANING  
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN/GRILL  
BEFORE CLEANING THE COOKER ALWAYS  
ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE  
COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE  
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.  
The Stayclean coating on the oven roof, sides and  
back panel should not be cleaned manually. See  
care of Stayclean surfaces on page 31.  
CLEANING MATERIALS  
The vitreous enamel coating on the 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.  
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.  
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean  
surfaces and must not come into contact with  
the elements or the door seal as this may cause  
damage.  
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 door using a soft  
cloth and liquid detergent.  
CLEANING THE GRILL DEFLECTOR,  
GRILL PAN, GRILL PAN GRID AND OVEN  
SHELVES  
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can  
be washed in the dishwasher. Alternatively soak  
them in hot soapy water if heavily soiled. They will  
then clean more easily.  
The grill pan 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.  
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY OF THE  
CONTROL KNOBS FROM THE PANEL AS THIS  
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND IS  
HAZARD.  
A
SAFETY  
CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND  
INNER DOOR GLASS  
The outer door glass is 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.  
2. Loosen the two screws using a Pozidrive  
screwdriver.  
3. Hold the door glass securely in place with one  
hand before removing the screws completely with  
the other hand.  
30  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
4. Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door  
glass towards you. Lift slightly to disengage the  
locators from the two bottom brackets.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Manual cleaning of Stayclean is not recommended.  
Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool  
pads, aerosol cleaners or any other abrasives are  
used.  
Slight discolouration and polishing of the  
Stayclean surface may occur in time. This does  
not affect the Stayclean properties in any way.  
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.  
Follow the recommendations below to keep oven  
soilage to a minimum.  
5. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy  
water or Hob Brite. DO NOT try to clean the  
aluminium foil which is inside the door. The foil is  
there to help keep the door cool, if it is damaged  
it will not work. Ensure that all parts are well  
rinsed and thoroughly dry before attempting to  
replace the outer door glass.  
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.  
TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS  
1. Holding the oven glass with both hands, gently  
place the locators into the holes of the brackets  
at the bottom of the oven door.  
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.  
2. Push the top of the oven glass towards the oven  
door, ensuring the screw location holes line up.  
3. Hold the glass in place with one hand and insert  
the cross head screws into the location holes  
with the other hand. Give the screws one turn to  
ensure the glass is secure.  
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.  
4. 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 INSIDE THE INNER GLASS DOOR  
The inner glass door is not removable. Clean using  
hot soapy water or Hob Brite and a soft cloth. Take  
care NOT to use abrasives as they may damage the  
glass or seal.  
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES  
Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats  
when the oven temperature is raised to around  
220°C.  
To aid this process it is a good idea to run the oven  
for an hour or two per week without food, to ensure  
continued good performance from 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 COOKER FROM  
THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE REPLACING  
THE BULB.  
Open 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 an 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.
