CANNOT BE CONTROLLED.
CAREFUL
F
OOD & ALCOHOL. Be extra careful when cooking
or reheating food that contains alcohol. If you
are adding alcohol (e.g. rum, cognac, wine etc.)
While roasting meats or baking cakes, remem-
ber that alcohol evaporates easily at high tem-
peratures. You should therefore bear in mind
that the vapors released can ignite when they
come in contact with the electrical heating el-
ement. If possible you should refrain from us-
ing alcohol in this oven.
PRECAUTIONS
USE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS to prevent
burns, when touching containers, oven
parts, and pan after cooking.
D
O NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.
F
RUIT JUICE DRIPPINGS may leave permanent
stains. Let the oven cool and clean before next
use.
CHOOSING SHELF LEVEL
WHEN SOME FUNCTIONS ARE SELECTED, the level indi-
cators will flash and light up. First the levels pos-
sible to use with this func-
tion flashes briefly and then
the recommended level to use
with the function is lit. In this
example the level 1 & 3 would
flash briefly leaving the rec-
ommended level 2 lit.

ACCESSORIES
GENERAL
T
HERE ARE a number of accessories available on the market.
Before you buy, ensure they are oven proof
BAKING PLATE
U
SE THE BAKING PLATE when
cooking or baking.
GLASS DRIP TRAY
U
SE THE GLASS DRIP TRAY beneath the wire shelf.
It may also be used as a
cooking utensil or as a
baking plate.
T
HE GLASS DRIP TRAY is used to
collect the drip-
ping juices and
food particles that
otherwise would stain and
soil the interior of the oven.
Avoid placing vessels di-
rectly on the oven
bottom.
WIRE SHELF
T
HE WIRE SHELF allows hot
air circulation around
the food and can be
placed with the high end
up or down to adjust
the distance from the grill
element. When you put food directly on the
Wire shelf, place the Glass drip tray under it.
START PROTECTION / CHILD LOCK
CHILD LOCK
THIS FUNCTION IS TURNED ON/OFF by press-
ing the Back and OK buttons simulta-
neously for 5 seconds until the key
symbol is displayed. No buttons or
knobs will function when this safety fea-
ture is activated.
COOLING DOWN
WHEN A FUNCTION IS FINISHED, the oven may car-
ry out a cooling procedure. This is normal and
switches off automatically when finished.
THE COOLING PROCEDURE can be interrupted with-
out any harm to the oven by opening the door.
IT CAN BE TURNED ON/OFF
AT ANY TIME even during
cooking.
6
STAND BY
THE OVEN IS IN “STAND BY when the 24 hour clock
is displayed. The displaying of the clock can be
turned off by turning the function knob to the
zero position and pressing the Back button.
THE CLOCK WILL RETURN as soon as any but-
ton or knobs are operated or simply by
pressing the Back button again.
FUNCTION CHANGE PROTECTION
IF THE MULTIFUNCTION KNOB is rotated e.g. switch-
ing to another function, during cooking, the
oven will ask you to confirm this change be-
fore switching to the new function. This is to
prevent accidental function change during the
cooking procedure.
THE OVEN WILL CONTINUE COOKING with the current
settings until the change is confirmed. If the
multifunction knob rotation was accidental,
simply return the knob to it’s previous position
and the display will once again show the cur-
rent cooking settings.
SPECIAL COOKING INTERRUPTION
IT IS NORMAL to check, stir or turn food during
cooking. However, for foods that requires in-
sertion into a cold oven or cooking on very
low operating temperature, should not be in-
terrupted at all. This because the oven will au-
tomatically restart the cooking process from
start and it will wait until the temperature in
the oven has returned to room temperature
before it starts cooking again. If the cooking
must be interrupted anyway you should re-
start the cooking process using the Conven-
tional function instead.

THE GRILL ELEMENT does not need cleaning since
the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but
the ceiling above it may need regular cleaning.
