When The Oven Is First Installed - Zanussi ZSA 25 Operating And Installation Manual

WHEN THE OVEN IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the oven has been installed, it is important to
remove the protective materials which were put on in
the factory.
Turn knob B on the timer until the manual function
appears in the dial. Switch the oven control knob
to fan ducted cooking
thermostat control knob to MAX and leave it to run,
empty, for 30 minutes to remove any unpleasant
new smells.
During this period, an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore, advisable to open a window
for ventilation.
REMEMBER: The timer must be set to MANUAL
before the oven can be operated.
This must be done whenever the cooker is
switched off at the wall or when there is a power
failure.
If the oven indicator neons do not glow when the
controls are switched on, it is most likely that the
timer is ser for automatic cooking.
Rating Plate
The model number of your oven can be found on the
rating plate on the lower front frame of the oven upon
opening the door.
The oven must be protected by a suitably rated fuse
or circuit breaker. The rating of the oven is given on
the rating plate.
About condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle does. The oven is vented to
allow some of this steam to escape. However, always
stand back from the oven 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the oven.
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, or placed on the oven base.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of
heat and may affect performance. Advice on the
effect of different materials and finishes of bakeware
is given in 'Hints and Tips' in the appropriate oven
section.

and then set the
The trivet
When roasting do use the trivet in the meat tin. Fat
and meat juices will drain into the meat tin below and
can be used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents
splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.
N.B. The meat tin should not be placed on a heated
hotplate as this may cause the enamel to crack.
The cooling fan for the controls
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill
is switched on and after a short time when the oven
is in use, and switches off when cooking is
completed.
During the initial period the cooling fan may cycle ON
and OFF, this is quite normal.
It may run on after the oven or grill is switched off to
keep the controls cool.
Always allow the cooling fan to cool the oven down
before switching off the wall prior to carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance work.
NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long
the oven or grill has been used and at what
temperature. It may not switch in at all at lower
temperature settings nor run on where the grill or
oven has only been used for a short time.
Control panel indicator neon
This light indicates whether the oven or grill is
switched ON. In the case of the oven, the neon also
indicates when the set temperature has been
reached. It will cycle on, and off during use to show
that the temperature is being maintained.
If the neon 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.
When the oven is set for automatic cooking the neon
should remain unlit during OFF periods.
