GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker. 1 grill pan 1 grill pan handle 1 grill pan grid 1 grill deflector 2 straight shelves Scuffing of the Stayclean oven lining by the oven furniture pack may occur during transit.
ELECTRONIC TIMER Please note that this is a 24 hour clock, for example 2.00 pm is shown as 1400. In the following pages we explain how to set the controls. Read through them a few times until you are familiar with the procedure. We have supplied a plastic card as a quick reference when setting the timer.
AUTOMATIC CONTROL Important: You can only use the automatic control for the oven. When you use the automatic controls for the first time it's probably best to choose a time when you are at home. That way you can check to make sure you've set everything correctly and you'll feel much more confident when you are away from home in the future.

The time shown on the chart gives an example of setting the automatic controls when the time is 9.00 am, the food is to be cooked for 2½ hours and the food is needed at 6.00 pm (1800 hours). The clock will work out what time the oven will switch itself on and it will turn the oven off at the end.
THE GRILL USES OF THE DUAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. This grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or the centre section only can be used for economy purposes when cooking smaller quantities of food.
THINGS TO NOTE THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING GRILLING The cooling fan for the controls will operate when grilling. The outer grill element may appear to glow slightly brighter than the inner element. This is quite normal. Do not attempt to use the grill when the fan oven has been set to automatic as overheating will occur.
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner position is used with the grid in its 'High' position. Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat setting and the shelf as necessary during cooking.
THE FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN The oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven, the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of fanned oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven.
THINGS TO NOTE The oven neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will cycle ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained. The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements. FOOD Biscuits Bread Bread rolls/buns Cakes: Small & Queen Sponges Victoria Sandwich Madeira Rich Fruit...
ROASTING CHART ROASTING CHART INTERNAL TEMPERATURES - Rare : 50-60°C; Medium : 60-70°C; Well :70-80°C MEAT Beef Beef, boned Mutton and Lamb Pork and Veal Chicken Turkey and Goose Duck Pheasant Rabbit Potatoes with meat Potatoes without meat The roasting temperatures and times given in the chart should be adequate for most joints, but slight adjustments may be required to allow for personal requirements and the shape and texture of the meat.
THERMAL GRILLING USES OF THERMAL GRILLING Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven fan operate together, circulating hot air around the food. The need to check and turn food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven door closed.
HINTS AND TIPS Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or butter to keep them moist during cooking. Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air around the food.
DEFROSTING USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This function enables you to defrost most foods faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones etc.
THINGS TO NOTE The oven light will illuminate. The indicator neon should remain unlit. If the temperature control is inadvertently set the indicator neon will illuminate, however, no heat is generated. When defrost is selected, the oven indicator neon may occasionally come ON. It will stay ON until the oven reaches room temperature and then go OFF.
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD Care must be taken when handling foods in the home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross contamination when preparing, reheating, cooking, cooling, defrosting and freezing foods. 1.
CARE AND CLEANING BEFORE CLEANING THE COOKER ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.
4. Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door glass towards you. Lift slightly to disengage the locators from the two bottom brackets. 5. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water or Flash Cream cleaner. DO NOT try to clean the aluminium foil which is inside the door.
