Note: Vapours from the oven vents may in time
cause discolouration of wallcoverings behind the
appliance. For ease of cleaning it may be preferable
to tile behind the appliance.
Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a
minimum of 685mm above the hob.
It is important to ensure that the appliance is level
after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the
appliance to accommodate uneven floors.
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR
APPLIANCE
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.
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The oven is vented to allow some of
this steam to escape. However, always stand back
from the appliance 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 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
including the vent at the rear of the hob. See note at
the top of this page.
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
The cooling fan operates immediately when the grill
or top oven is switched on. It may run on after the
controls are switched off until the appliance has
cooled. If an automatic programme has been set the
cooling fan does not switch on until the cooktime
begins.
Note: The action of the cooling fan will depend on
how long the top oven or grill have been used and at
what temperature. It may not run on where the grill
or top oven has been used for a short time or at low
temperatures. Do not switch the appliance off at its
power point until the cooling fan has cooled the
appliance down.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the grill or ovens are
switched on.
The neons also indicate when the set temperature
has been reached. They will turn on and off during
use to show that the temperature is being
maintained.
If the neons do not operate as the instructions
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.
Return all controls to zero and re-set following the
instructions for the required setting.
When the oven has been set for automatic cooking
the neon will remain unlit until the cooktime begins.
COOKWARE
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the 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
