And Function Control

Step 1 Check that the timer is in manual.

Step 2 Place the shelf/shelves in the correct position (see Main Oven Temperature Charts.

Step 3 Place the food centrally on the shelf ensuring the oven door is fully closed.

Step 4 Select the required cooking temperature (80°C - MAX) by turning control (C) clockwise. The pilot light () will immediately come on, and remain on until the oven reaches the required temperatu- re. The light will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct tempera- ture.

Note: When you have finished using your cooker, always return the controls to their OFF position (O). At the end of the cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.
