INTRODUCTION

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the top cavity 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.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING THE OVENS

We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 – 15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from their surfaces.

The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 –10 minutes.

During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of the steam to escape. However, always stand back from the appliance when opening the oven door 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 also soilage from surfaces.

COOKWARE

Baking trays, oven 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.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE

CONTROLS

The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when either of the ovens are 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.

Do not switch off the appliance at its power point before the cooling fan has cooled the appliance down.

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS

These lights indicate whether the ovens are switched ON. The neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached.

They will turn on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained.

If the neons do 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.
