BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
RATING PLATE
This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the door.
Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on
the back or top of some models (where applicable).
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is
given on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance
as this may invalidate the guarantee.
PREPARING TO USE YOUR APPLIANCE
Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth
and hot soapy water and wash the furniture before
use. We suggest that you run the oven elements for
10 – 15 minutes at 220
o
C to burn off any residue
from their surfaces. The procedure should be
repeated with the grill for approximately 5 – 10
minutes. During this period an odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for
ventilation.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEON(S)
The indicator neon will operate when the grill (where
applicable) or oven(s) is switched on. The indicator
neon will glow. It may turn on and off during use to
show that the setting is being maintained. 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.
CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The vents allow some of this steam to
escape. However, always stand back from the
appliance when opening the door(s) 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 appliance, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
COOKWARE
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the main 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.

been supplied with the appliance.
1 grill pan
