Disposal of your product
To minimise the risk of injury to children please dispose of your product carefully and safely. Remove all
doors and lids. Remove the mains cable (where fitted) by cutting off flush with the appliance and always
ensure that no plug is left in a condition where it could be connected to the electricity supply.
To help the environment, Local Authority instructions should be followed for the disposal of your product.
This appliance conforms to the following EEC Directives:
Electromagnetic Compatibility
89/336/EEC
92/31/EEC
93/68/EEC
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that
old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream.
Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials
they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin"
symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be
separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of
their old appliance.
Check
Ensure that the grill pan is positioned centrally below
the grill element.
Ensure that the grill is not set to too high a
temperature.
Ensure that the oven shelves are level by using a
spirit level on the rod shelf and adjusting, using
suitable packing e.g. wood, under the feet of the
appliance. This should be checked both left to right
and front to back. Ensure that the food is positioned
centrally in the oven.
The following may cause cakes to sink:
1. Cooking at too high a temperature.
2. Using normal creaming method with soft margarine.
Refer to the cooking times and temperatures given in
the oven temperature charts, however, it may be
necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by
10°C to suit personal taste.
Do not use utensils greater than 2¼ ins in height.
1. Too large baking sheet used. (See 'Cookery Notes')
2. Over loading of oven and always ensure even air
gaps around baking tins.
Ensure that the shelf is level (see above) and that the
food is positioned centrally in the oven.
Only cook one item at a time to avoid overloading the
oven.
