Using the oven
Please note: When using for the first time the oven may smell for a short time while
burning off dust and manufacturing residues from the heating elements. This is
normal and does not indicate a fault with the oven.
The oven is fan assisted and evenly distributes the heat throughout the oven. This may
reduce the cooking times compared with a conventional oven so always read the cooking
instructions on the packaging when cooking convenience food.
It is recommended to preheat the oven for a few minutes or wait until the temperature
indicator goes off before placing food in the oven for cooking.
Be careful when using aluminium foil. Do not cover the sides of the oven, the shelf or oven
interior. If wrapping food in foil the cooking time may increase.
Main oven controls
The thermostat determines the temperature inside the
oven during cooking. Turn the control knob clockwise
to align the cooking temperature with the marker on
the control panel. The temperature indicator will light
up when a temperature is set, and turn off when the
temperature has been reached. During cooking the
thermostat will maintain the set temperature.
The temperature can be set between 50°C and
250°C. To turn the oven off, the knob must be turne d
to “0”. There are 4 function settings for the main oven.
Turn the control selector so that the symbol on the
selector aligns with the marker on the control panel:
