USINGTHEMECHANICALTIMER
To run the oven in Manual function (not using the timer) adjust the
Timer control to the position indicating M as shown on the picture,
you can continuously operate your oven (upper diagram). When the
timer control knob is in the off (0) position, the oven will not operate.
To set a time, rotate the timer control knob clockwise to a certain time
range between 0 - 100 minutes, as shown on the picture (lower
diagram). The oven will stop when the set time range is completed,
and the timer will give an audible warning once.
This is referred to as Manual use or Manual operation, when you
want total control of the cooking functions and cooking time.
NOTE: The oven will not operate unless the mechanical timer is set to
a cooking time (e.g. 30 minutes) or turned to the “M” position for
manual use.

Each wire grid and tray comes with a built-in safety feature to help minimise them being accidentally
pulled fully out. This comes in the way of a “step”, positioned part-way in from the rear of the accessory.
To fit them into the oven, push the wire grid or tray part way into the oven until the step “catches”, then
angle the part over the step & fully insert. To remove, repeat the operation in reverse.
