The cooling fan
The cooling fan comes on immediately the top oven or grill is switched on. It may run on after the ovens are switched off until the appliance has cooled. During the cooling down period the cooling fan may switch on and off.
Warning! Always allow the cooling fan to cool the appliance down before switching off the electrical
supply to carry out cleaning or maintenance.
Control panel indicator neon(s)
The indicator neon will operate when the 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 main- tained. 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 discoloration, regularly wipe away condensa- tion 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.
Setting the Time
The oven only operates when the time has been set.
1.When the appliance is connected to the electrical supply or when there has been a power cut, Time 
flashes automatically.
2. Using the | or |
| button, set the current time. |
|
3.After approx. 5 seconds, the clock stops flashing and the clock displays the time of day set.
The appliance is now ready to use.
Initial Cleaning

1.Turn the oven function switch to oven lighting .
2.Remove all accessories and the shelf support rails and wash them with warm water and washing up liq- uid.
3.Then wash out the oven with warm water and wash-
4.Wipe the front of the appliance with a damp cloth.
Operation
The top oven
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is de- signed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruitcakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche.
The top oven is ideal for use as a warming compartment. It can be used to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.
Warning! Do not place cookware and cooking pots with rough bases e.g. cast iron on the oven door as
damage to the glass may occur.
