When the oven is first installed

Rating plate

This is usually situated on the front frame of the appliance and

can be seen upon opening either the main or top oven 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 using hot

soapy water. Wash the furniture before use.

We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill for 10 – 15

minutes at maximum temperature, to burn off any residue from

their surfaces. Accessible parts may become hotter than in

normal use. Children should be kept away. During this period

an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a

window for ventilation.

The cooling fan for the
controls

The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched

on and after a short time when the oven is in use. It runs on

after the controls are switched off until the appliance has

cooled. During the initial period the cooling fan may turn on and

off, this is quite normal.

Warning

Always allow the cooling fan to cool the appliance down

before switching off at the wall prior to carrying out any

cleaning or maintenance work.

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 foodstuff from surfaces.

For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the appliance

should be securely fixed to the wall.

Cookware

Baking trays, 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.

On/Off push button

The oven must be switched on before setting any cooking

function or programme. When the on/off button is pressed,

the cavity symbol will show in the main oven electronic display.

To switch off the oven, you can press the on/off button at

any time. Any cooking function or programme will stop, the

oven light will switch off and the main oven electronic display

will show the time of day only.

Oven function control push
buttons (main oven)

Press the main oven function selector button to allow you to

select the cooking function. Each time you press this button a

symbol will come on in the main oven electronic display,

showing what cooking function has been chosen.

Setting the language

simultaneously.

3.

Using the increase and decrease buttons, select one of

the languages displayed.

Important
