INTRODUCTION  
The cooling fan  
Electrical connection  
When the appliance is operated, the  
cooling fans will automatically oper-  
ate. This keeps the facia, control  
knobs and components cool during  
cooking.  
Please refer to installation instructions  
for electrical connection.  
In your own interest, and that of safety,  
make sure that the installation is carried  
out by a competent person.  
The cooling fan may continue to oper-  
ate for a period of time after the con-  
trols have been switched off.  
Disconnection of electric appliances  
should always be carried out by a  
competent person.  
When hot and cold air meet, condensation  
forms. Some condensation may form  
on doors or on the fascia glass. This  
is normal and will disappear within  
10 - 15 minutes.  
Warning: This appliance must be  
earthed.

BE SAFE - NOT SORRY  
When you are cooking, keep  
children away from the vicinity  
of the appliance.  
Keep electrical leads short so they  
do not drape over the appliance  
or the edge of the worktop.  
This product is designed as a domes-  
tic cooking appliance for the prepa-  
ration and cooking of domestic food  
products, and should not be used for  
any other purpose.  
Keep all flammable materials  
(such as curtains, furnishings &  
clothing) away from the appli-  
ance.  
Never use the appliance for  
heating a room.  
Parts of the appliance may be hot  
during or immediately after use.  
Care should be taken to avoid  
touching heating elements inside  
the oven. Allow sufficient time  
for the appliance to cool after  
switching off.  
Do not use the oven with the door  
inner glass panel removed.  
Do not drape tea towels over the  
flue vents or doors, as this creates  
a fire hazard.  
Switch off the electricity supply  
before replacing the oven light  
bulb, to avoid the risk of electric  
shock.  
Do not use aluminium foil to  
cover the grill pan, or put items  
wrapped in foil under the grill, as  
this creates a fire hazard. The  
high reflectivity can also damage  
the element.  
Make sure you read and  
understand the instructions before  
using the appliance.  
Remove all packaging, protective  
films and oils from the appliance  
before using for the first time.  
Before using the hob for the first  
time, remove all packaging, pro-  
tective films, oils and stickers from  
the glass ceramic.  
Apply a thin coating of cleaner  
conditioner and polish the surface  
with a clean dry cloth.  
The conditioner gives a protective  
covering to the ceramic glass  
which not only makes the hob  
eiser to clean, but also ensures  
you will gain maximum life out of  
this product.  
Risk of burns - do not place  
objects made of steel, such as  
knives, forks, spoons and  
saucepan lids on the cooking sur-  
face, as they can get very hot.  
Warning! do not clean the  
appliance with a steam jet or  
high-pressure cleaning equip-  
ment.  
Do not use foil on oven shelves, or  
allow it to block the oven flue, as  
this creates a fire hazard, and  
prevents heat circulation.

BE SAFE - NOT SORRY  
When cooking heavy items - eg;  
oven gloves to protect your hands.  
turkeys - do not pull the oven shelf  
out with the item still on the shelf.  
When opening the appliance door,  
Don't leave pans on the hob when  
you're not around - take them off  
the cook zone if you have to leave  
the kitchen (even if you think it will  
only be for a moment)  
If you're called away from the cook-  
er - by the phone or someone at the  
door, either take pans off the heat  
or switch off your hob.  
take care to avoid skin  
contact  
with any steam which may escape  
from the cooking.  
Use oven gloves when removing  
hot food / dishes from the oven or  
grill. The oven / grill and utensils  
will be very hot when in use.  
Warning! Do not use the hob if the  
ceramic glass surface is cracked or  
broken, as electrical parts are  
immediately beneath. Switch of the  
appliance at the supply and contact  
your supplier  
The glass ceramic can get hot  
whilst cooking; the cook zone itself  
does not generate heat. The heat  
generated is conducted back from  
the hot pans.  
This induction hob complies with  
the applicable EMC and EMF stan-  
dards. Therefore it should not inter-  
fere with other electronic units.  
Persons fitted with a pacemaker or  
any other electrical implant should  
clarify with their doctor or the pro-  
ducer of the implant, whether there  
implant is adequate and fail-safe,  
the pacemaker must be designed in  
compliance with the appropriate  
regulations.  
Warning: This appliance must be  
earthed.  
All installation, servicing and  
maintenance work should be car-  
ried out by a competent person  
who will comply with current  
Regulations,  
Requirements.  
Standards  
and  
When you have finished  
cooking check that all controls  
are in the off position.  
It’s important that good quality flat  
bottomed pans are used, if a pan  
creates a large air gap over the  
middle of the cooking zone, the  
accuracy of the temperature sens-  
ing can be affected.  
If you use a griddle plate ensure it  
is completely cool before attempt-  
ing to lift it from the hob as residual  
heat may cause burns. Always use

fitted with a ‘hush button’ which can  
silence the alarm instantly should it  
activate accidentally & does not  
necessitate the removal of the battery  
(except to change for a new one).  
Electrical Fire - if you have an elec-  
trical fire in the kitchen:  
1) pull the plug out or switch off the  
power at the fuse box - this may be  
enough to extinguish the fire immedi-  
ately  
2) smother the fire with a fire blanket  
or use a dry powder or carbon diox-  
ide extinguisher  
Fire Blanket - consider having a  
fire blanket in your kitchen, mounted  
on the wall where you can get to it  
easily & quickly.  
Deep-fat Frying - never fill a chip  
pan (or other deep-fat fryer) more  
than one-third full of oil. If you do  
have a chip pan fire:  
1) call 999 immediately  
2) never move the pan  
3) remember: never use water on an  
electrical fire.  
REMEMBER - if you have a fire  
in the kitchen, DO NOT take  
risks - get everybody out of  
the house and dial 999.  
3) turn off the heat but only if it is  
safe do so  
4) never use water on a chip pan  
fire as this will create a fireball.  
Kitchen Fire - if you have a fire in  
the kitchen, do not take risks - get  
everybody out of the house & call  
999. If a pan catches fire:  
1) do not move it - it is likely to be  
very hot  
2) turn off the heat but only if safe to  
do so & never lean over a pan to  
reach the controls  
3) if you have a fire blanket, put it  
over the pan  
4) do not use a fire extinguisher on a  
pan of oil - the force of the extin-  
guisher can spread the fire  
5) if you have managed to extin-

USING THE HOB  
Using the hotplate  
Commercial simmering aids  
Lift pans onto and off the surface,  
should not be used as they create  
excessive temperatures that can  
damage the surface and may  
cause a hazard.  
Do not place aluminium foil or  
plastic utensils on the ceramic  
glass, as they may melt and  
damage the surface.  
Do not use the ceramic glass  
hotplate surface for storage.  
When cooking with fat or oil,  
never leave unattended.  
rather than sliding them across the  
surface, to avoid marks and  
scratches.  
If you use a wet paper towel to  
remove spills from a warm heating  
area of the hob, be careful to  
avoid steam burns.  
Do not use abrasive powder  
cleaners, metal wire wool pads,  
impregnated plastic pads, detergents,  
bleaches, bath stain removers, or  
chemical oven cleaners; all these  
types of products will damage the  
ceramic glass.  
Turn pan handles to a safe position,  
so they are out of reach of children,  
not overhanging the appliance, and  
cannot be caught accidentally.  
Position pans over the centre of the  
hotplate elements.  
Do not use the hob as a chopping  
board or a storage area, as this  
increases the likelihood of it being  
damaged - eg; plastic utensils  
placed on a warm hob may melt  
onto it, and damage the ceramic  
glass surface.  
Be careful when cooking foods in  
salted water, or foods containing  
large amounts of sugar, syrup or  
jam - if they are spilt onto hot areas  
of the hob they may damage it.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
About the induction hob  
The induction hob provides the most  
energy efficeint hob technology avail-  
able.  
The induction system provides superior  
heat up and cool down times for pans  
- you get fast, precise, repeatable  
power control.  
As induction only heats up the pan,  
there is no lost heat from the cooking  
process, which in turn, limits the heat  
generated in the kitchen.  
Auto Power Tuning  
Induction hobs have a unique power  
tuning systems that automatically tunes  
the power to the size of the pan base  
this ensures energy isn’t wasted.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
Induction controls  
To turn the hob ‘ON’ / ‘OFF’  
To turn the hob ‘ON’ turn the control knob clockwise to set the cook zone to the  
desired power setting (1 to 9). The power display will automatically light up.  
To turn the hob ‘OFF’ turn the control knob anti-clockwase to the ‘OFF’ position.  
Auto Heat Up  
Helps to take the worry out of pans boiling over and burning food! No need to  
stand over the pan, allows you to do other tasks whilst maintaining control over the  
pan.  
The Auto Heat Up is activated by rotating he control knob anti-clockwise and hold-  
ing for a couple of seconds until the symbol lights up in the display area, then by  
rotating the control knob to the required turn down setting.  
The Auto Heat Up delivers full power (9) to the zone for a fixed period of time  
before automatically turning back down to the desired setting.  
The Auto Heat Up has been tuned to provide the best boost period for each setting.  
Average Auto Heat up time is 3 minutes.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
Power Boost  
Rev up your hob with this feature, tem-  
porarily boost the power to a cook  
zone by a massive 60%.  
The power boost is a function that can  
be used to temporally boost the nor-  
mal maximum power for a cook zone  
by borrowing the available power  
from a “paired zone”.  
Note The Power Boost function will  
only operate for a limited time and  
is also under thermal control. This  
means the power boost will deac-  
tivate automatically if the product  
is hot, to protect the internal elec-  
tronic components of the hob and  
to prevent the cookware from over-  
heating.  
All the cook zones have this function  
apart from the “Griddle Zone ” func-  
tion.  
The Power Boost is activated by rotat-  
ing the control knob clockwise past  
power setting 9 and holding for a cou-  
ple of seconds until  
lights up in the  
display area. Power Boost is now acti-  
vated.  
The hob is split into “two paired  
areas”.  
LH Area (LHF and LHR Cook Zone)  
and RH Area (RHF and RHR Cook  
Zone).  
Only one cook zone per area can be  
boosted at anyone time.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
Griddle Zone  
Pan detection  
When a zone has been activated but  
no pan has been placed on the cook  
zone, this means the hob only uses  
power when a suitable pan is placed  
on the zone, this reduces the energy  
used during the cooking process, i.e.  
when you take your pan off the zone  
the hob automatically reduces the  
power, and only switches back on  
when you replace the pan.  
Flexibility is what counts.

OVEN & GRILL FUNCTIONS  
Function  
Recommended Uses  
Used to finish off the bases of food following cooking using the  
conventional or fanned modes. The base heat can be used to pro-  
vide additional browning for pizzas, pies and quiche. Use this  
function towards the end of cooking.  
Base Heat Only  
The heat is ideal for browning off the tops of food as it is not as  
fierce as the grill following conventional or fanned cooking.  
Provides additional browning for dishes like lasagne or cauliflower  
cheese. Use this function towards the end of cooking.  
Top Heat Only  
This function is ideal for traditional roasting, The meat is placed in  
the middle of the oven, roast potatoes towards the top.  
Conventional Oven  
Ideal for pizzas and also suitable for food with a high moisture  
content, such as quiche, bread and cheesecake. It also elimi-  
nates the need for baking pastry blind.  
Intensive Bake  
(Pizza Setting)  
The fan allows the heat to circulate around the food. Ideal for  
thinner foods such as bacon, fish and gammon steaks. Foods do  
not require turning. Use with the oven door closed.  
Fanned Grill  
The even temperature in the oven makes this function suitable for  
batch baking or batch cooking foods.  
Fanned Oven  
To defrost foods, such as cream cakes/gateaux, use with the oven  
door closed. For cooling dishes prior to refrigeration, leave the  
door open.  
Defrost  
Dual Grill  
Single Grill  
This function cooks food from the top and is ideal for a range of  
food from toast to steaks. As the whole grill is working, you can  
cook larger quantities of food.  
For smaller quantities of food, but is still ideal for anything from  
toast to steaks.  
Used to cook open pies (such as mince pies) the base element  
ensures that the base is cooked while the fan allows the air to cir-  
culate around the filling - without being too intensive.

indicators.  
Preheating  
For best results, preheat the grill for  
3 - 5 minutes.  
Aluminium foil  
Using aluminium foil to cover the grill  
pan, or putting items wrapped in foil  
under the grill can create a fire hazard,  
and the high reflectivity can damage  
the grill element.  
The handle should be removed from  
the pan during grilling, to prevent  
overheating.  
The handle is designed for removing /  
inserting the grill pan under the grill  
when grilling.  
If cleaning the grill pan when it is hot,  
use oven gloves to move it. Do not use  
the handle to pour hot fats from the  
grill pan.  
Food for grilling should be positioned  
centrally on the trivet.

USING THE GRILLS  
Grilling in the top oven  
Using the top oven grill  
Caution: Accessible parts may  
be hot when the grill is used,  
young children should be kept  
away.  
For grilling smaller quantities of food  
the (single element) economy grill can  
be utilised. This grill function can be  
controlled between settings 1 and 8.  
The top oven grill is a fully variable  
dual element grill.  
For grilling larger quantities of food,  
the (dual element) full grill can be  
utilised. The full grill can also be  
controlled between settings 1 and 8.  
To switch on the grill  
When using the grill in the top oven,  
the speed of grilling can be controlled  
by use of either the variable control  
or by selecting higher or lower shelf  
position.  
For toasting, and for grilling foods  
such as bacon, sausages or steaks,  
use a higher shelf position.  
Open the top oven / grill door.  
Turn the top oven control knob past the  
oven temperature markings to either  
the single economy grill  
or the dual grill symbol.  
symbol,  
The grill regulator - to the left of the top  
oven control - must then be switched  
on. This enables variation of the heat  
output from the grill on either the single  
grill or dual grill settings.  
The dual grill uses all of the top  
element, and the single economy grill  
setting uses the inner part of the  
element only.  
Important: The door must be kept  
open when the grill is used.  
To switch off, return the control knob to  
the “off” position.  
For thicker foods such as chops or  
chicken joint pieces, use a middle to  
low shelf position.  
The cooling fan  
When the grill is switched on, you will  
hear the cooling fan come on - this  
keeps the fascia and control knobs of  
the appliance cool during grilling. The  
fan may continue to operate for a peri-  
od after the grill control has been  
switched off.  
Note that the grill will not operate if  
the top oven is switched on.

(ii) Turn the temperature control knob to  
the desired temperature up to 230˚C.  
Fanned grilling may be faster than  
conventional grilling because air is  
being circulated around the food.  
Thin portions of food, such as bacon  
or fish fillets, may not need turning.  
The door must be closed when the grill  
is used for conventional grilling.  
When opening the door, take care to  
avoid skin contact with any steam  
which may escape from the cooking.  
(i) Turn the selector control knob to  
the conventional grill setting.  
(ii) Turn the temperature control knob  
to the desired temperature for grilling,  
similar to oven function. However,

For best results, preheat the grill for  
3 - 5 minutes.  
Note that when grilling, the door must  
remain closed before and after  
grilling, and the temperature control  
must not exceed 230˚C.  
Grilling in the main oven  
The speed of grilling can be controlled  
by selecting a higher or lower shelf

USING THE TOP OVEN  
When you are cooking keep  
The cooling fan  
children away from the vicinity  
of the oven.  
When the top oven is switched on, you  
will hear the cooling fan come on - this  
keeps the fascia and control knobs of  
the appliance cool during cooking.  
The fan will continue to operate for a  
period after the oven control has been  
switched off.  
Caution: The top element gets  
extremely hot when in use, so take  
extra care to avoid touching it.  
The top oven is a conventional oven  
Note: The top oven is not controlled by  
Preheating  
the programmer.  
The oven must be preheated when  
cooking frozen or chilled foods, and  
we recommend preheating for yeast  
mixtures, batters, soufflés, and  
whisked sponges.  
Preheat the oven until the indicator  
light switches off for the first time, this  
will take up to 20 minutes depending  
on the temperature selected.  
If you are not preheating the oven, the  
cooking times in the following guide  
may need to be extended, as they are  
based on a preheated oven.  
To turn on the top oven  
Turn the temperature control knob  
clockwise until the required temperature  
is selected.  
The red thermostat indicator will come  
on until the selected temperature is  
reached, and then go off; it will turn  
on and off periodically as the  
thermostat operates to maintain the  
selected temperature.  
To switch off, return the top oven  
control knob to the off position.  
Important: Never put items directly  
on the base of the oven, or cover the  
oven base with foil, as this may cause  
the element to overheat.  
position items on the shelf.  
Always  
Top heat only  
Turn the top oven selector past the  
oven temperature markings to the top  
heat symbol. This fixed heat setting  
can be used to brown the top of dish-  
es such as cauliflower cheese or  
baked alaska.

USING THE TOP OVEN  
Shelf positions  
There are 2 shelf positions which are  
counted from the bottom of the oven  
upwards, so shelf position 1 is the lowest.  
When cooking frozen or chilled food,  
use the highest possible shelf position,  
while allowing some clearance  
between the food and the top element.  
The oven shelf must be positioned with  
the upstand at the rear of the oven and  
facing up. Position baking trays and  
roasting tins on the middle of the  
shelves, and leave one clear shelf posi-  
tion between shelves, to allow for cir-  
culation of heat.  
When using the top oven  
As part of the cooking process, hot air  
is expelled through a vent at the top of  
the oven(s). When opening the oven  
door, care should be taken to avoid  
any possible contact with potentially hot  
air, since this may cause discomfort to  
people with sensitive skin. We recommend  
that you hold the underneath of the  
oven door handle.

Using the Top Oven  
Top oven baking guide  
Cooking temperatures  
The temperature settings and time  
given in the Baking Guides are based  
on dishes made with block margarine.  
If soft tub margarine is used, it may be  
necessary to reduce the temperature  
setting. If a recipe gives a different  
temperature setting to that shown in  
the guide, the recipe instruction should  
be followed.  
Cooking times  
These times are based on cooking in a  
preheated oven.  
These cooking times are approximate,  
because the size and type of cooking  
dish will influence time as well as per-  
sonal preferences.  
Shelf positions  
Because the top oven is more  
compact, it may be necessary to  
reduce cooking temperatures specified  
in recipes by up to 20˚C.  
Use the baking guide as a reference  
for determining which temperatures  
to use.  
As a general guide, when cooking  
frozen or chilled food, use the highest  
possible shelf position, while allowing  
some clearance between the food and  
the top element. Follow the instructions  
given on packaging.

young children should be kept  
away.  
To turn on the main oven  
Step 1 - Select the function  
Turn the selector control knob in either  
direction, until the function you require  
is selected.  
The main oven is a multi-function oven,  
and may be used as a conventional  
oven or a fanned oven. It may also be  
used as a grill, or with one of the other  
oven functions.  
Step 2 - Set the main oven control  
If you have selected an oven cooking  
function, then simply turn the main  
oven control knob clockwise to the  
required temperature - this brings on  
the neon indicator light, which will  
stay on until the oven reaches the  
required temperature.  
If you have selected defrost, do not  
turn the thermostat control on.  
To switch off the main oven, return the  
Manual operation  
The programmer must be set to manual  
operation before the main oven or grill  
functions can be used. If A (Auto) is  
on the programmer display, return the  
oven to manual operation by pressing  
the plus and minus buttons simultane-  
ously. Any programme which has been  
set is cancelled.  
control knobs to the ‘off’ position.  
Automatic operation  
Baking tray and roasting tins  
See ‘Programmer / Clock’ section.  
For best cooked results and even  
browning, the maximum size baking  
trays and roasting tins that should be  
used are as follows;  
Baking tray  
350mm x 280mm  
This size of baking tray will hold up to  
16 small cakes.  
Roasting tin  
370mm x 320mm  
We recommend that you use good  
quality cookware. Poor quality trays  
and tins may warp when heated,  
leading to uneven baking results.

USING THE MAIN OVEN  
Oven cooking  
Preheating (conventional mode)  
Caution: Accessible parts may  
be hot when the appliance is in  
use - keep children away from  
the vicinity of the oven.  
When using the conventional mode to  
cook sensitive items such as scouffle’s  
and Yorkshire puddings or, when  
cooking bread, we recommend that  
the oven is pre-heated until the neon  
switches off for the first time. For any  
other types of cooking, a pre-heat is  
not required.  
Never put items directly on the base of  
the oven or cover the oven base with  
foil, as this can cause the base element  
to overheat.  
Always use the fan oven setting for  
preheating to save time and electricity.  
After the oven has been preheated on  
the fan oven setting, turn the selector  
control knob to the oven setting you  
require.  
Preheat the oven until the indicator  
neon switches off for the first time;  
this will take between 5 - 15 minutes,  
depending on the temperature selected.  
Manual operation  
Set the programmer to manual operation.  
See ‘Programmer / Clock’ section.  
Turn the selector control knob until the  
symbol for the desired oven function is  
selected.  
Turn the main oven control knob to the  
desired temperature.  
The red thermostat indicator neon will  
come on until the selected temperature  
is reached, then go off. It will cycle on  
and off as the thermostat operates to  
maintain the selected temperature.  
To switch off the main oven, return the  
main oven control knob to the “off”  
position.  
Automatic operation  
See ‘Programmer / Clock section.  
Oven shelves  
When using the oven  
As part of the cooking process, hot air  
is expelled through a vent at the rear  
of the oven. When opening the oven  
door, care should be taken to avoid  
any possible contact with potentially hot  
air, since this may cause discomfort to  
people with sensitive skin. We recommend  
that you hold the underneath of the  
oven door handle.  
The oven shelf must be positioned with  
the upstand at the rear of the oven and  
facing up.  
The cooling fan  
Position baking trays and roasting tins  
on the middle of the shelves, and leave  
one clear shelf position between  
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.  
The cooling fan may operate when the  
main oven is on and may continue to  
operate for a period after the oven has  
been switched off.

USING THE MAIN OVEN  
Cooking with a fanned oven  
Notes:  
As this is a high efficiency oven,  
you may notice the emission of  
steam from the oven when the  
door is opened. Please take  
care when opening the door.  
When 2 or more shelves are being  
used, it may be necessary to increase  
the cooking time slightly.  
Because the 2 oven shelves are wider  
than in many ovens, it is possible to  
cook 2 items per shelf - eg; 2 victoria  
sandwiches or 2 casseroles. Although  
you need to keep in mind the point  
from the previous page ‘To help the air  
circulate freely’ with careful choice of  
dishes and tins, it is possible to cook a  
complete meal and perhaps something  
else for the freezer in the oven at the  
same time.  
When roasting meats, you may notice  
that fat splashing is reduced, which is due  
in part to the lower oven temperatures,  
and will help keep cleaning of the  
oven to a minimum.  
Because a fan oven has an even  
temperature throughout the oven, no  
shelf positions have been given in the  
following baking guide, and there is  
no need to interchange dishes onto  
different shelves part way through  
cooking, as with a conventional oven.  
If you have been used to cooking with  
a conventional oven, you will find a  
number of differences to cooking with  
a fanned oven, which will require a  
different approach:  
There are no zones of heat in a  
fanned oven, the convection fan at the  
back of the oven ensures an even  
temperature throughout the oven. This  
makes it ideal for batch baking - eg;  
when planning a party or stocking the  
freezer, as all items will be cooked  
within the same length of time.  
Foods are cooked at a lower temperature  
than a conventional oven, so conven-  
tional recipe temperatures may have  
to be reduced. Please refer to the  
conversion chart.  
Pre-heating is generally not necessary  
as a fan oven warms up quickly.  
There is no flavour transference in a  
fan oven, which means you can cook  
strong smelling foods such as fish at  
the same time as mild foods - eg; milk  
puddings.  
When batch baking foods that will rise  
during cooking - eg; bread - always  
ensure that enough space has been left  
between shelves to allow for the rise.  
26  
 
USING THE MAIN OVEN  
To help the air circulate freely  
Main oven baking guide  
Position the shelves evenly within  
the oven and maintain a clearance  
from the oven roof and base.  
Cooking times  
These times are based on cooking in a  
preheated oven.  
The cooking times given are only  
approximate because the size and  
type of cooking dish will influence  
cooking time, a s w i l l p e r s o n a l  
preference.  
If more than one cooking dish or  
baking tray is to be used on a shelf,  
leave a gap of at least 25mm  
between the items themselves and  
the oven interior.  
Allow enough space between  
shelves for food that will rise  
during cooking.  
Cooking temperatures  
• The temperature settings and times  
given in the baking guide are  
based on dishes made with block  
margarine.  
Do not place items on the oven  
base as this will prevent air from  
circulating freely.  
• If soft tub margarine is used it may  
be necessary to reduce the tempera-  
ture setting.  
• If a recipe gives a different temper-  
ature setting to that shown in the  
guide, the recipe instruction should  
be followed.

MAIN OVEN CONVERSION GUIDE  
Note: this is a high efficiency oven, therefore some adjustment will have to be  
made to conventional cooking temperatures when using the fanned oven. The  
table below shows conventional cooking temperatures, fanned oven temperatures  
and gas marks. For optimum results, conventional temperatures need to be con-  
verted to fanned temperatures.  
For example, an item which would normally cook at a conventional temperature  
of 180 ˚C, will now cook at the fanned temperature of 160˚C.

Defrosting meat, poultry and fish  
can be accelerated using this  
method, but make sure they are  
completely thawed before cooking  
thoroughly.  
Place meat and poultry on a trivet  
in a meat tin, to catch the juices  
from the defrosting process.  
To cool foods after cooking prior to  
refrigerating or freezing, turn the oven  
control to the defrost position, and  
open the door.  
To defrost frozen foods, turn the

USING THE OVENS  
Roasting guide  
Notes:  
The times given in the roasting guide  
are only approximate, because the  
size and age of the bird will influence  
cooking times as will the shape of a  
joint and the proportion of the bone.  
Frozen meat should be thoroughly  
thawed before cooking. For large  
joints it is advisable to thaw overnight.  
Frozen poultry should be thoroughly  
thawed before cooking. The time  
required depends on the size of the  
bird - eg; a large turkey may take up  
to 48 hours to thaw.  
Use of a trivet with a roasting tin will  
reduce fat splashing and will help to keep  
the oven interior clean. Alternatively,  
to help reduce fat splashing, potatoes  
or other vegetables can be roasted  
around the meat / poultry.  
When cooking stuffed meat or  
poultry calculate the cooking time  
from the total weight of the meat  
plus the stuffing.  
For joints cooked in foil or covered  
roasters, and for lidded casseroles,  
add 5 minutes per 450g (1lb) to  
the calculated cooking time.  
Smaller joints weighing less than  
1
1.25kg (2 2lb) may require 5  
minutes per 450g (1lb) extra  
cooking time.  
Position the oven shelf so that the  
meat or poultry is positioned in the  
centre of the oven.  
It is recommended that the appliance  
is cleaned after open roasting.

USING THE OVENS  
Traditional fruit cakes  
It should be remembered that ovens  
can vary over time, therefore cooking  
times can vary, making it difficult to be  
precise when baking fruit cakes.  
It is necessary therefore, to test the  
cake before removal from the oven.  
Use a fine warmed skewer inserted  
into the centre of the cake. If the  
skewer comes out clean, then the cake  
is cooked.  
Roast turkey  
Roasting turkey perfectly can prove  
difficult, as you are cooking two  
different types of meat - the delicate  
light breast meat, which must not be  
allowed to dry out, and the darker leg  
meat, which takes longer to cook.  
The turkey must be roasted long  
enough for the legs to cook, so  
frequent basting is necessary. The  
breast meat can be covered once  
browned.  
Follow the temperatures recom-  
mended in the recipe and then  
adjust according to the conver-  
sion guide on page 14.  
Turkey should be roasted at  
180˚C (conventional) 160˚C  
(fanned) for 20 minutes per 1lb,  
plus 20 minutes, unless packaging  
advises otherwise.  
Do not attempt to make Christmas  
cakes larger than the oven can cope  
with, you should allow at least  
25mm (1 inch) space between the  
oven walls and the tin.  
The turkey can be open roasted,  
breast side down, for half of the  
cook time, and then turned over for  
the remainder of the cooking time.  
To protect a very rich fruit cake  
during cooking, tie 2 layers of  
brown paper around the tin.  
We recommend that the cake tin is  
not stood on layers of brown  
paper, as this can hinder effective  
circulation of air.  
If the turkey is stuffed, add 5  
minutes per 1lb to cook time.  
If roasting turkey covered with  
foil, add 5 minutes per 1lb to  
cook time.  
Do not use soft tub margarine for  
rich fruit cakes, unless specified in  
the recipe.  
Always use the correct size and  
shape of tin for the recipe quantities.  
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a  
fine skewer into the thickest part of the  
thigh. If the juices run clear, the turkey  
is cooked. If the juices are still pink,  
the turkey will need longer cooking.

USING THE OVENS  
Automatic cooking  
Do not  
The automatic cooking facility is  
controlled by the programmer (see  
‘Programmer / Clock’ section) and  
allows complete meals or individual  
dishes to be cooked while you are out  
of the house, to be ready for when you  
return. The READY TIME’ should be set  
as close as possible to, or just after,  
your anticipated return, so food is not  
left standing in a warm oven.  
Warm food should never be  
placed in the oven if there is a  
delay period.  
Stews prepared by frying the  
meat and vegetables first should  
be cooked as soon as possible,  
or refrigerated prior to placing in  
the oven.  
Some dishes are not suitable for  
cooking on automatic - eg; dishes  
containing left over meat or  
poultry, dishes containing eggs,  
cooked rice, or seafood.  
Do not put food items (intended for  
automatic cooking) into a warm  
oven; allow the oven to cool before  
setting for automatic cooking.  
Do not over fill dishes containing  
liquids, as they might boil over.  
Never leave food in the oven to  
cool slowly after cooking; serve  
immediately or refrigerate.  
Never use the automatic facility to  
reheat ‘cook chill’ foods, as they  
should go straight from the  
refrigerator into a preheated oven.  
Do  
Select foods which are as fresh as  
possible, and as cold as possible -  
ie; preferably straight from the  
refrigerator.  
Choose foods which are suitable  
for cooking from a cold start, as  
some dishes will be affected by  
being left uncooked, at room  
temperature, perhaps for several  
hours - eg; a wet filling on a  
pastry base.  
Make sure that meat and poultry  
are thoroughly thawed (but still cold  
from the refrigerator) before placing  
them in the oven, and avoid using  
rolled joints of meat, which can be  
more susceptible to the growth of  
food poisoning organisms.  
Cover dishes with lids or foil to keep  
the food moist, and protect from  
possible contamination; the food  
can be uncovered towards the end  
of cooking to crisp and brown.  
33  
 
USING THE OVENS  
Important:  
Hints for automatic cooking  
Food is more susceptible to the growth  
of food poisoning organisms in warm  
conditions. If the weather is hot, either  
take care to ensure that food is not left  
standing in a warm oven, or avoid  
using the automatic cooking facility.  
Food is placed in a cold oven so  
you will need to add about 10 - 15  
minutes onto the cooking time to  
allow for the oven to reach the  
selected temperature.  
Wine or beer may ferment, and  
cream may curdle during the delay  
period, so it is best to add these  
ingredients just before serving.  
Potatoes should be parboiled or  
brushed with oil to prevent  
discolouration during the delay  
period.  
Meat can be brushed with oil to  
prevent it drying.  
Lemon juice can be added to  
certain fruits and vegetables such  
as apples, pears, turnips and  
parsnips to prevent discolouration  
during the delay period.

PROGRAMMER / CLOCK  
Semi-automatic cooking  
For the instructions on how to use both  
of these functions, please see the fol-  
lowing page.  
There are two types of semi automatic  
cooking available on this appliance.  
Fully automatic cooking  
This function incorporates both a dura-  
tion and an end time and is meant to be  
used when you wish to delay the start  
time.  
The oven must be switched on,  
and in use to use either of these  
functions successfully.  
The Duration method allows you to set  
the oven for a specific length of time.  
If a dish needed 2 hours to cook, then  
it would be possible for you to set the  
oven to turn off 2 hours later. This  
allows you to be sure that your food  
will be cooked for a set length of time  
and no longer.  
We recommend that the first few times  
this function is used you are in the  
house, this will familiarise you with your  
oven and prevents food from being over  
cooked or under cooked.  
Care must be taken when selecting  
foods for this function, it is not recom-  
mended for certain food items which  
may spoil, or are sensitive to being left.  
The End Time method allows you to  
enter a specific time when you would  
like the oven to switch off. If you wish  
to leave the oven unattended, then it  
offers peace of mind that the oven will  
have turned itself off at the set time.  
It is also advisable to set the end time to  
be as close to your return as possible to  
prevent food being left standing.  
However, once the program is set then  
it cannot be adjusted. Extra time can-  
not be added, nor can the end time be  
extended.  
To cancel the semi automatic pro-  
grams, press both the Plus and Minus  
buttons together. This can be done at  
any time during the cooking process.  
Then if necessary, re program.

dishwasher, or with a nylon brush in  
hot soapy water.  
Always let the appliance cool  
before cleaning.  
Do not use a steam cleaner on  
this appliance.  
Some cooking operations generate  
considerable amount of grease, this  
combined with spillage can become a  
hazard if allowed to accumulate on  
the appliance through lack of  
cleaning. In extreme cases this may  
amount to misuse of the appliance and  
could invalidate your guarantee.  
It is recommended that the appliance  
is cleaned after open roasting.  
Do not use caustic, corrosive or  
abrasive cleaning products, products  
containing bleach, coarse wire wool  
or any hard implements, as they will  
damage the surfaces.  
All parts of the appliance can be  
safely cleaned with a cloth wrung out  
in hot soapy water.

Stainless Steel surfaces (stainless  
steel finish models only)  
FACIA PANEL, DOOR PANELS  
HANDLES, DOOR PANELS  
Use a mild cream cleaner - eg; “Cif”.  
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft  
cloth.  
Only use a clean cloth wrung out in hot  
soapy water, and dry with a soft cloth.  
Important: The inner door glass  
panel(s) can be removed for cleaning,  
but they must be replaced the right  
way (so the reflective side faces  
inwards) and also pushed fully in to  
the stop position. To remove the glass  
panel, open the door wide, hold the  
edges of the glass and slide out.  
Do not use undiluted bleach or any  
products containing chlorides as they  
can permanently damage the steel.  
Extra care should be taken when cook-  
ing food in salted water. Some foods  
are corrosive - eg; vinegar, fruit juices  
and especially salt - they can mark or  
damage stainless steel if they are left  
on the surface. Turn off and wipe any  
spillage immediately, taking care to  
avoid skin contact with any hot surface  
or spillage.  
Sharp objects can mark the surface of  
stainless steel, but marks will become  
less noticeable with time.  
To maintain the finish of the stainless  
steel, or to remove any greasy marks,  
wipe the stainless steel surface sparingly  
with a minimum amount of Baby Oil  
and kitchen paper.

CARE & CLEANING  
Cleaning the hob  
Ceramic glass surface  
gain maximum life out of this product.  
Occasional use will help prevent the  
build up of mineral deposits which can  
cause discolouration of the hob surface.  
Do not use abrasive powder cleaners,  
“Brillo” pads, metal wire, detergents,  
bleaches, bath stain removers, or chemical  
oven cleaners; all these product types  
will damage the ceramic glass.  
The following recommendations will  
help to keep the ceramic glass surface  
bright and clean.  
Discolouration of the hob  
Do not use a dishcloth or dish sponge  
to wipe the hob - this can leave a film  
of detergent on the surface which will  
discolour the hob next time a heating  
area is used. Clean cloths kept for the  
cleaning of the hob can be used.  
Do not use too much cleaner  
conditioner - only a thin coating is  
required, any excess may burn on and  
discolour the hob when it is next in use.  
If persistent stains or marks remain on  
the ceramic glass surface, it can be  
cleaned using a mild cream cleaner - eg;  
“Cif”, or a ceramic hob scraper. This will  
also remove any accumulated salts or  
minerals before they have an opportunity  
to discolour the ceramic glass.  
Wipe clean with a damp paper towel  
or clean damp cloth and re-apply  
cleaner conditioner.  
Allow the hob to cool.  
Use a dampened paper towel or clean  
damp cloth to apply a small dab of  
cleaner conditioner to clean each  
heating area.  
Use another paper towel or a clean  
dry soft cloth to wipe dry, and then  
polish the whole glass surface.  
To remove any stubborn marks or  
heavy soiling, a non scratching, mild  
cream cleaner may be used - eg; “Cif”.  
Important: If you use a wet paper  
towel or clean damp cloth to remove  
spillage from a warm heating area of the  
hob, be careful to avoid steam burns.  
Care and maintenance  
Before using the hob for the first time,  
apply a thin coating of cleaner conditioner  
(eg; “Hob Brite”, by Homecare*) to  
the ceramic glass only, and polish the  
surface with a clean cloth.  
The conditioner gives a protective  
covering to the ceramic glass which  
not only makes the hob easier to  
clean, but also ensures that you will
