OPERATION

BEFORE OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE
FOR THE FIRST TIME

TIPS & INFORMATION

SETTING THE TIME

If you have purchased a model fitted with a 3 button

programmable timer, you MUST set the time of day before

you can operate your appliance.

ELECTRONIC CLOCK

• After the appliance has been electrically connected

“12.00” will be displayed and the “clock” indicator

will flash.

• To set the time of day, press – or +. 5 seconds after

the last change, the “clock” indicator will disappear,

confirming the time has been set.

NOTE: The clock has a 24-hour display.

PREPARING YOUR APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

• Please remove all internal boxes and bags from

the oven & remove visible labels from surfaces

before operation.

• Please wipe out the oven interior prior to operation

with warm soapy water and polish dry with a soft

clean cloth. Do not close the oven door until the

oven is completely dry.

• New appliances can have an odour during first

operation. It is recommended to ‘run in’ your oven

before you cook for the first time. Run the oven at

180ºC for 2-4 hours and ensure that the room is

well ventilated.

• DO NOT line the oven with foil, it will damage

the enamel.

• If your appliance is fitted with a 2-hour “Auto Off”

timer, make sure it is set to the ‘O’ marker for

manual operation.

• If your appliance is fitted with solid hotplates,

turn heat setting to high for 3 minutes to fully harden

the coating. When cooled, apply a thin coating of

cooking oil to seal the surface.

FITTING OVEN SHELVES

• Ensure shelf orientation is correct (refer picture).

• Slide into oven at an angle until raised back of shelf

is past the stop on side runners.

• Lower front of shelf and push in until stop is reached.

NOTE: The top ledge is not a shelf position.

NOTE the orientation of the

side and rear features.
