PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

HECK THAT THE VOLTAGE on the rating

plate corresponds to the voltage in your

home.

NSURE the oven cavity is empty before

installation.

NSURE THAT THE APPLIANCE IS NOT DAMAGED.

Check that the oven door closes firmly against the

door support. Empty the oven and clean the

interior with a soft, damp cloth.

O NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE if it has a

damaged mains cord or plug, if it is not

working properly, or if it has been damaged

or dropped. Do not immerse the mains

cord or plug in water. Keep the cord away

from hot surfaces. Electrical shock, fire or

other hazards may result.

AFTER CONNECTION

EMOVE ALL STICKERS from the oven door

and front of the oven with the exception of

the rating plate which must remain in place.

EMOVE ALL PROTECTIVE cardboard

packaging and plastic films from the control panel

and oven.

EMOVE ALL LABELS from accessories (for

example, underneath the Glass Drip Tray).

EMOVE ALL ACCESSORIES from the oven

and ensure the oven cavity is empty.

EFORE USING the oven for the first time.

We recommend that the oven be heated to

200ºC for 1 hour to allow any greases and

residues from manufacture to burn off. As

the smell of the fumes can be unpleasant

ensure the room is well ventilated by

opening the kitchen window.

HE EARTHING OF THIS APPLIANCE is

compulsory. The manufacturer will accept

no responsibility for injury to persons,

animals or damage to objects arising from

the non-observance of this requirement.

The manufacturers are not liable for any

problems caused by the user’s failure to

observe these instructions.

Installation

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE

REFERENCE

O NOT HEAT, OR USE FLAMMABLE

MATERIALS

in or near the oven. Fumes can

create a fire hazard or explosion.

O NOT USE YOUR APPLIANCE FOR DRYING

TEXTILES, PAPER, SPICES, HERBS, WOOD,

FLOWERS, FRUIT OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE

MATERIALS.

FIRE COULD RESULT.

F MATERIAL INSIDE / OUTSIDE THE OVEN

SHOULD IGNITE OR SMOKE IS OBSERVED

keep the oven door closed and turn the

oven off. Disconnect the power cord or

shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker

panel.

O NOT OVER-COOK FOOD. Fire could

result.

O NOT LEAVE THE OVEN UNATTENDED,

especially when using paper, plastic or other

combustible materials in the cooking

process. Paper can char or burn and some

plastics can melt if used when heating

foods. Large quantities of fat and oil can

overheat and are flammable.

O NOT USE corrosive chemicals or vapors

in this appliance. This type of oven is

specifically designed to heat or cook food. It

is not designed for industrial or laboratory

use.

O NOT COVER the bottom of the oven with

aluminum foil or other objects.

O NOT DRAG pots or pans across the

bottom of the oven as this could scratch the

enamel.

O NOT ALLOW CHILDREN or the infirm to use

the oven without adequate supervision and

instruction. Young children must be

supervised to ensure they do not play with the

appliance.

O NOT USE YOUR APPLIANCE FOR HEATING

ANYTHING IN AIRTIGHT SEALED CONTAINERS

THE PRESSURE INCREASES AND MAY CAUSE

DAMAGE WHEN OPENING OR MAY EXPLODE

O NOT HANG OR PLACE heavy items on the

door, as this can damage the oven opening

and hinges.

During use, the appliance becomes hot.

Care should be taken to avoid touching

heating elements inside the oven.

Accessible parts may become hot when the

grill is in use. Children should be kept away.

Important safety instructions

GENERAL

HIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE

ONLY

O NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.

DEEP-FRYING

O NOT USE YOUR APPLIANCE FOR DEEP-FRYING,

BECAUSE THE OIL TEMPERATURE CANNOT BE

CONTROLLED

SE OVEN GLOVES OR HAND PROTECTION to

prevent burns, when removing or inserting

hot pans and trays whilst cooking.

CAREFUL

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, remember that

alcohol evaporates easily at high temperatures. You

should therefore bear in mind that the vapors

released can ignite when they come in contact with

the electrical heating element.

If possible you should refrain from using alcohol in

this oven.

TEMPERATURE COOKING

HEN USING THE TEMPERATURE PROBE, insert the

tip of the probe into the thickest part of the food,

as this is the part that takes the longest to heat.

LACE THE PROBE INTO THE FLESHIEST PART OF THE

MEAT. The tip of the probe must not touch any

bones in the food, nor should it touch the side or

bottom of the cooking vessel. If the probe is placed

in these areas it will give an incorrect temperature

reading.

HE PROGRAMMED TEMPERATURE must be set to a

temperature that is higher than the current

temperature of the food.

HEN MAKING DISHES that need to be cooked for

a long period of time at very high temperatures,

such as jam, marmalade or sweets we recommend

that the temperature probe is not used as the

probe is not designed to read over 90ºC.

EVER IMMERSE the probe in water when cleaning.

Simply wipe clean with a clean, damp cloth or

kitchen roll after use.

HE OVEN MUST NOT BE OPERATED with the

temperature probe in the cavity if it is not plugged

into the oven.

If you do operate the oven without complying with

the above you will damage the probe.

Precautions

GENERAL

THERE ARE a number of accessories available on

the market. Before you buy, ensure they are oven

proof.

LEVEL INDICATOR

WHEN SOME FUNCTIONS ARE SELECTED, the level

indicators will flash and light up. All the level

indicators for the selected function light up and

flash briefly, then the

recommended level is

illuminated. In this example

levels 1&3 light up and flash

briefly whilst level 2

(recommended) is

illuminated.

GLASS DRIP TRAY

SE THE GLASS DRIP TRAY

beneath the wire shelf. It

may also be used as a

cooking utensil or as a

baking plate.

HE GLASS DRIP TRAY is

used to collect the dripping juices and food

particles that otherwise would stain and soil the

interior of the oven.

HE GLASS DRIP TRAY should be placed on shelf

level 1. Do not place anything on the oven

floor/bottom.

WIRE SHELF

THE WIRE SHELF allows hot

air to circulate around the

food and can be placed

with the high ends either

up or down, to adjust the

distance from the grill.

When food is placed directly on the wire shelf,

place the Glass Drip Tray under the shelf.

BAKING PLATE

SE THE BAKING PLATE

when cooking or baking.

PROBE

HE PROBE IS DESIGNED to

be used with Pro Roasting

function only.

It is not possible to use the

probe in any other function. It measures the

internal temperature of the food which is then

shown on the display.

EVER IMMERSE the probe in water when cleaning.

Simply wipe clean with a damp cloth or kitchen roll

after use.

Only use the temperature probe recommended for

this oven.
