OVEN LIGHT
By setting the knob to this position, only the oven light comes on (15 W).
It remains on in all the cooking modes.

TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING

The upper and lower heating elements come on. The heat is dispersed by natural
convection and the temperature must be set to between 50 and 225C via the
thermostat knob.
The oven must be preheated before cooking.
Recommended for:
Food that requires the same degree of cooking both inside and out, for example
roasts, spare pork ribs, meringues etc.
7

GRILLING
The infrared grill element comes on. The heat is dispersed by radiation.
Use with the thermostat set between 50 and 225C and the oven door closed.
For cooking hints, see the below chapter GRILLING and AU GRATIN.
Recommended for:
Intense grilling, browning, cooking au gratin and toasting etc.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.

COOKING IN A CONVENTIONAL TOP OVEN

The oven has two heating elements, one on the base and one on the roof of the

cooker. Hot air rises, so the top of the oven is always the hottest. The temperature
in the middle of the oven is maintained at the temperature set by the control knob,
and is slightly hotter above and cooler below.
In a conventional oven, dishes requiring different temperatures can be cooked in
the oven at the same time - e.g. roast beef and Yorkshire pudding.
Always pre-heat a conventional oven before use.
The oven indicator light will go out when the required temperature is reached. Do
not open the oven door during cooking unless absolutely necessary.
IMPORTANT: Drip trays, baking trays etc. must not be left on the base of the oven
as this could damage the appliance.

GRILLING AND AU GRATIN

Switch the grill on by setting the selector knob to position
and the thermostat
knob to position 225C for 15 minutes, then to position 175C.
Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the door closed.
Place the food inside positioning the rack as near as possible to the grill.
Insert the drip pan under the rack to collect the cooking juices.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.
Remember to keep children away from the appliance when you use the grill
or oven, since these parts become very hot.

light above the temperature selector goes off.

GRILLING
Grill with the door closed and do not use the grill for longer than 30 minutes at
any one time.
The grill temperature is variable and can be set between 50 and 200 C.
Before using the grill, pre-heat for about five minutes. The grill element will become
bright red in colour. Position the grill pan on the highest shelf position and check
continually as the temperature will be very high and food may easily burn.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any
one time.

Cooking advice
Figure 8

Figure 9

COOKING WITH A FAN OVEN

The heat comes from a circular element situated at the rear of the oven, the fan blows
air over the element and circulates hot air around the oven figure 8.
Turn the function selector control knob to position
and set the required
temperature with the thermostat control knob.
The set temperature has been reached when the temperature indicator light goes off.
Several different meals may be cooked simultaneously on various shelves, as the
heated air circulates evenly throughout the oven figure 9.
The hot air system cooks more quickly than the conventional static system, therefore
the temperature should be set 15C - 20C below those recommended in your recipe
books. The oven door should only be opened briefly while cooking so any heat losses
are quickly recovered when the door is closed.

10

GRILLING
Turn the function selector control knob to position
. Pre-heat grill for about 5
minutes, the infra red grill element in the top of the oven will become bright red in
colour. Place the grill pan with the food brushed with a little oil, in the most
convenient position (usually in the highest position, close to the infra-red grill).
Use the detachable handles to move the grill pan in and out of the oven . Ensure that
the detachable handles are removed so that the oven door can be closed during
grilling.
Check continually, as the temperature is very high and the food might easily burn.
The infra-red grill can also be used for browning meals after ordinary cooking.
The oven is supplied with two grill pan handles which clip on to the grill pan. The
handles must be removed before closing the oven door.
We recomend that you use oven gloves when using the grill pan handles or when
removing the grill pan, or any of the oven shelves, as they become very hot when in
use.

GRILLING NOTE
Always grill with the oven door closed.
It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
To avoid possible smoking during grilling, it is advisable to add a little water to the grill
pan.
The water can be topped up during grilling as evaporation takes place.
DO NOT grill food containing fats without using the grid.
DO NOT cover the grill pan grid with aluminium foil, as this can stop fats draining
away and could possibly cause the fat to catch fire.
