Before t h e First Use  
Remove all packaging, both inside and  
outside the oven, before using the oven.  
Before first use, the oven should be heated without  
food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be  
emitted. This is quite normal.  
1. Set the electronic timer to manual  
function.  
2. Switch the oven function control knob to  
conventional cooking  
.
3. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.  
4. Open a window for ventilation.  
5. Allow the oven to run empty for  
approximately 45 minutes.  
6. Half way through, reset the oven  
function control to fan cooking  
.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill  
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.  
The lower oven should also be heated in the same  
way using both the conventional cooking function  
and the grill function  
.

Telescopic runners  
The main oven shelf supports are provided with  
telescopic runners at level 2 from the bottom.  
1. Pull the right and left hand telescopic runners  
completely out, as shown in the diagram.  
2. Place the grid or the dripping pan on the  
telescopic runners, as shown in the diagram,  
then gently push them all inside the oven.  
Do not attempt to close the oven door if the  
telescopic runners are not completely inside  
the oven. This could damage the door enamel  
and glass.  
Hints and Tips  
i
Condensation and steam  
When food is heated it produces steam in the same  
way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of  
this steam to escape. However, always stand back  
from the oven 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense  
and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and  
is not a fault with the oven.  
To prevent discoloration, regularly wipe away  
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.  
Cookware  
• Use any oven proof cookware which will  
withstand temperatures of 250°C.  
• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be  
placed directly against the grid covering the fan at  
the back of the oven, or placed on the oven base.  
• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm  
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation  
of heat and may affect performance.  
The effects of dishes  
on cooking results  
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,  
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat  
to the food inside them.  
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and  
bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and  
underneath browning.  
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,  
aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured  
exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking  
and underneath browning.

Usin g t h e Con ven t ion al Oven  
When using this setting, heat comes from both the top  
and bottom elements. This allows you to cook on a  
single level and is particularly suitable for dishes  
which require extra base browning such as pizzas,  
quiches and flans.  
Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top  
browning also cook well in the conventional oven.  
This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to  
cook without the fan in operation.  
How to Use the  
Conventional O ven  
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required  
cooking function (  
).  
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required  
temperature.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The oven light will come on when the oven  
function control knob is set.  
The thermostat control light will remain on until  
the correct temperature is reached. It will then  
cycle on and off to show that temperature is being  
maintained.  
Top oven elem ent only  
This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes,  
eg; lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.  
Bottom oven elem ent only  
This function is particularly useful when blind-baking  
pastry or cooking pizza. It may also be used to finish  
off quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is  
cooked through.  
Th e Coolin g Fan  
• The cooling fan will operate continually during  
cooking. It may run on after the oven is switched  
off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.  
NOTE  
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how  
long the oven has been used and at what temperature.  
It may not switch in at all at lower temperature  
settings nor run on where the oven has only been  
used for a short time.

Hints and Tips  
i
The middle shelf position 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.  
Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on  
the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will  
occur.  
For faster preheating use the fan oven function to  
preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes  
out, then swich the selector to the conventional oven  
setting.  
Single level cooking gives best results. If you require  
more than one level cooking use the fan oven  
function.

Usin g t h e Fan Oven  
(Main Oven on ly)  
The air inside the oven is heated by the element  
around the fan situated behind the back panel. The  
fan circulates hot air to maintain an even temperature  
inside the oven.  
The advantages of cooking with this function are:  
Fast er Preh eat in g  
As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is  
not usually necessary to preheat the oven  
although you may find that you need to allow an  
extra 5-7 minutes on cooking times. For recipes  
which require higher temperatures, best results  
are achieved if the oven is preheated first, e.g.  
bread, pastries, scones, souffles, etc.  
Lower Tem perat u res  
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower  
temperatures than conventional cooking.  
Follow the temperatures recommended in the  
chart at page. 15. Remember to reduce  
temperatures by about 20-25°C for your own  
recipes which use conventional cooking.  
Even Heat in g for Bak in g  
The fan oven has uniform heating on all runner  
positions. This means that batches of the same  
food can be cooked in the oven at the same time.  
However, the top shelf may brown slightly  
quicker than the lower one.  
This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours  
between dishes.  
FO 2079  
How to Use the Fan O ven  
1. Turn the oven function control knob to  
.
2. Turn the thermostat control to the required  
temperature.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
During cooking, the cooling fan and the thermostat  
control light will operate in the same way as  
described for the conventional oven function.

Hints and Tips  
i
Runner positions are not critical, but make sure the  
shelves are evenly spread.  
When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven,  
place dishes centrally on the shelves rather than  
several dishes on one shelf.  
When the oven is full, you may need to allow slightly  
longer cooking time.  
A shelf may be placed on the floor of the oven. Place  
dishes on a shelf in this position rather than on the  
oven base, to allow air circulation around the food.  
When the oven is full of the same food, e.g. equal  
trays of small cakes or equal size victoria sandwich  
cakes, then they will be cooked in the same time and  
removed from the oven together. When different  
sizes of trays or types of food, e.g. biscuits and cakes  
are cooked, they will not necessarily be ready  
together.  
The fan oven can be used to heat foods through  
without thawing first, e.g. fruit tarts, mince pies,  
sausage rolls, and other small pastry items. Use a  
temperature of 190-200°C and allow 20-40 minutes  
(depending on the quantity of food in the oven).  
The use of too high temperatures can cause uneven  
browning. Check with the recommendations for oven  
temperatures given in the cooking charts, but be  
prepared to adjust the temperature by 10°C if  
necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures by  
about 20-25°C for your own conventional recipes.  
When roasting do 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.  
The meat tin should not be placed on a heated  
hotplate or burner as this may cause the enamel to  
crack.

Defrost in g  
(Main Oven on ly)  
The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the  
air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This  
increases the speed of defrosting. However, please  
note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence  
the speed of defrosting.  
This function is particularly suitable for delicate food  
which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled  
gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast  
products.  
i
Hints and Tips  
• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic  
film to prevent drying out during defrosting.  
• ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY  
IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAWING.  
• Frozen food should be placed in a single layer  
when ever possible and turned over half way  
through the defrosting process.  
How to Use Defrosting  
1. Turn the oven function control knob to  
• Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. (4 lb.)  
are suitable for defrosting in this way.  
.
2. Ensure the thermostat control knob is in the OFF  
position.

Grillin g  
Grilling must be carried out with the oven  
door closed. The grill pan handles must be  
removed from the pan.  
How to Use the Grill  
1. Turn the oven control function knob to  
.
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required  
temperature.  
3. 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.  
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes  
before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat  
setting and the shelf as necessary, during cooking  
During cooking, the cooling fan and the thermostat  
control light will operate in the same way as  
described for the fan oven function.  
Hints and Tips  
i
- 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  
- 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  
- When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner  
position is used.  
O
L
I
- The food should be turned over during cooking, as  
required.  
The grill element is controlled by the thermostat.  
During cooking, the grill cycles on and off to  
prevent overheating.

How to Use the Inner Grill  
Elem ent  
The inner grill provides quick direct heat to the  
central area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill  
element for cooking small quantities, it can help to  
save energy.  
1. Turn the oven control function knob on  
.
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required  
temperature.  
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to  
allow for different thicknesses of food and follow  
the instructions for grilling.  
How to Use the Therm al Grill  
(Main O ven only)  
Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of  
cooking food items normally associated with  
conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven  
fan operate alternately, circulating hot air around the  
food. The need to check and turn the food is reduced.  
Thermal grilling helps to minimize cooking smells in  
the kitchen.  
With the exception of toast and rare steaks, you can  
thermally grill all the foods you would normally cook  
under a conventional grill. Cooking is more gentle,  
therefore food generally takes a little longer to cook  
with thermal grilling compared with conventional  
grilling. One of the advantages is that larger loads  
can be cooked at the same time.  
1. Turn the oven control function knob on  
.
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required  
temperature. Select a maximum temperature of  
200°C.  
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to  
allow for different thicknesses of food and follow  
the instructions for grilling.

Hints and Tips  
i
Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional  
grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with little  
oil or butter to keep them moist during cooking.  
If thermally grilling on more than one level, it may be  
necessary to interchange the food on the shelves  
during cooking.  
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.

Hin t s an d Tips abou t  
Usin g t h e Lower Oven  
The lower oven is the smaller of the two ones. It is  
Hints and Tips  
i
heated by two elements in the top and lower of the  
oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of  
food. It gives especially good results if used to cook  
fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.  
There should always be at least 2.5 cm (1") between  
the top of the food and the heating element. This  
gives the best cooking results and allows room for  
yeast mixtures to rise, Yorkshire puddings, etc.  
The lower 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 lower oven  
temperature control knob.  
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread etc., place  
the tins or baking trays centrally below the element.  
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf and  
there is sufficient room around the baking tray/dish to  
allow for maximum circulation.  
Th in gs t o n ot e  
1. The lower oven thermostat control light 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 tempera-  
ture is being maintained.  
Stand dishes on suitable sized baking trays 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.  
2. The control cooling fan will operate after a time.  
3. The lower oven works independently of the top  
oven.  
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, lower  
temperatures and shorter cooking times are  
sometimes required.  
For economy, leave the door open for the shortest  
possible time, particularly when placing food into a  
preheated oven.

Clean in g t h e Oven  
Before cleaning always allow the cooling  
fan to cool the oven down before switching  
off at the electricity supply.  
The oven should be kept clean at all times.  
A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could  
result in a fire, especially in the grill pan.  
Clean in g m at erials  
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven,  
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.  
Ext ern al clean in g  
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and  
door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm  
water to which a little liquid detergent has been  
added.  
To prevent damaging or weakening the  
door glass panels avoid the use of the  
following:  
• Household detergent 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  
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm  
soapy water. Should the inner door glass become  
heavily soiled it is recommended that a cleaning  
product such as Hob Brite is used. Do not use paint  
scrapers to remove soilage.  
DO NOT clean the oven door while the  
glass panels are warm. If this precaution is  
not observed the glass panel may shatter.  
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.  
Contact your local Service Force Centre  
who will be pleased to advise further.

Oven Cavit y  
The enamelled base of the oven cavity is best cleaned  
whilst the oven is still warm.  
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm  
soapy water after each use. From time to time it will  
be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a  
proprietary oven cleaner.  
DO NOT attempt to clean catalytic liners  
i
Oven Sh elves an d Sh elf Su pport s  
To clean the oven shelves and the shelf supports, soak  
in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks  
with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well  
and dry with a soft cloth.  
The shelf supports can be removed for easy cleaning  
(see diagram). Please, ensure the retaining nuts are  
secure when refitting the shelf support.  
When cleaning the shelf supports, take care not  
to remove the lubricating grease behind the  
telescopic runners. This is meant to ensure  
their good operation.  
i
Grease Filt er  
To prevent a build-up of fats on the fan impellor, the  
grease filter must be fitted by clipping it over the  
vents in the back panel.  
To clean t h e grease filt er  
When the oven has cooled down, remove the filter by  
pushing the protruding tongue on the filter upward,  
and wash carefully.  
The grease filter should be cleaned after every use.  
The filter may be washed in a dishwasher on a 65°C  
wash. If the filter is heavily soiled, place the filter in a  
saucepan of water with approximately 1 teaspoon of  
automatic washing powder or dishwasher powder.  
Bring to the boil and leave to soak for approximately  
30 minutes or longer depending on the degree of  
soiling. Ensure the solution does not boil over as it  
could mark your hob.  
FO 0018  
Rinse filter in clear water and dry.  
Remember to refit the filter before using the oven  
again.

Care of cat alyt ic lin ers  
(Main Oven on ly)  
Catalytic liners 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 Catalytic  
liners.  
COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE  
Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher  
temperatures during roasting will increase soilage.  
Try cooking to 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.  
Hints and Tips  
i
• Manual cleaning of the Catalytic liner is not  
recommended. Damage will occur if soap  
impregnated steel wool pads, aerosol cleaners and  
any other abrasives are used.  
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.  
• Slight discoloration and polishing of the Catalytic  
surface may occur in time. This does not affect the  
Catalytic properties in any way.  
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.  
• Follow the recommendations below to keep oven  
soilage to a minimum.  
Do use the roasting tin. During roasting, the fat from  
the joint will be contained beneath the trivet and  
therefore prevent it from splattering onto the  
'Catalytic' liner.  
Replacin g t h e Oven Ligh t  
If the oven bulb needs replacing, it must comply with  
the following specifications:  
- Electric power: 15W,  
- Electric rate: 230-240 V (50 Hz),  
- Resistant to temperatures of 300°C,  
- Connection type: E14.  
These bulbs are available from your local Zanussi
