Note: DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in use
as the surfaces get extremely hot
The oven has different heat zones - the temperature control settings refer to the
temperature on the middle shelf; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler.
SHELF POSITIONING
The two shelves can be used in six different positions. Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent
it being pulled out too far when attending to food. Shelves are removed from the oven by
pulling them out to the stop and the lifting at the front to withdraw.
MAIN OVEN UTENSILS
The baking dish and the grill pan without the handle can be used in the oven. To
ensure good air circulation in the oven, the maximum size of baking tray that should be
used is 300mm X 350mm (12" X 14").
MAIN OVEN OPERATION
1. Check that the timer is set to manual.
2. Place the shelves in the correct position. ( see cooking chart ).
3. With the main oven door closed, push in and turn the control knob fully anti-clockwise.
Sparking will continue until the burner is lit. Turn the control knob clockwise to the
required setting (see cooking chart ). There is a delay of about one minute whilst the safety
device operates before the burner comes fully on.
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to symbol O.
Note: The oven burner only operates when the oven door is closed. The oven burner will
shut off when the door is opened, and will turn on and reignite when the door is closed
again.
COOLING FAN
A gentle flow of air will be blown below the control panel when any control is used.
Whenever the appliance has been used, the cooling fan may continue to run or restart
itself after all the controls have been turned off.
