Fast heat up POP783 model
"Fast heat" can be selected in the initial heat up phase of any cooking function.
During "fast heat" the heat comes from the element surrounding the fan as
well as the smaller element above the food. This allows you to preheat your
oven 30% quicker than on standard "bake". See page 19 for more
information.
"Fast heat up" is not a cooking function. It is used to preheat the oven to the
desired temperature quickly and efficiently. It is recommended to use this
feature when preheating your appliance.
The oven will automatically revert to the set cooking function once the
preset temperature is reached.
Defrost
The "defrost" function uses low temperature air that is circulated by the fan.
You can defrost (thaw) your food before you cook it. You can also use
"defrost" to raise your yeast dough and to dry fruit, vegetables and herbs.
Cooling/Venting fan
Your built-in appliance is fitted with a cooling fan. This prevents your kitchen cabinet from
overheating and reduces the condensation inside the oven. It will operate whenever you are using
your oven or grill and will blow warm air across the top of the oven door. In some appliances the
cooling fan may continue to operate after the appliance is turned off. It will switch off by itself
once oven is cool.
Condensation
Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may happen when you are cooking large
quantities of food from a cold start. You can minimize condensation by:
• Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking to a minimum.
• Making sure that the oven door is firmly closed.
• Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly smaller than the water container.
• Cooking casseroles with the lid on.
NOTE: If you are using water in cooking, this will turn to steam and may condense outside your
appliance. This is not a problem or fault with your oven.
Operating your oven temperature selector
A thermostat controls the temperature in your appliance. The
temperature can be selected within the specified range. To set the
temperature, turn the temperature selector in a clockwise direction
to the desired setting. An indicator light above the temperature
selector will come on. When the temperature is reached, the heating
source switches itself off and the indicator light goes out. When the
oven temperature falls below the desired setting, the heating source
switches on and the indicator light comes on again. Once the food is
cooked, turn the temperature selector back in an anti-clockwise
direction. Do not force it right round in a clockwise direction as this
will result in damage to the thermostat.
NOTE: For multifunction ovens the desired cooking function must be selected before the oven will
operate. Once the desired function has been selected, use the temperature selector to set the
required temperature.
