Oven Interior
Lights
The oven lights are operated when their respective oven control is
used. (N.B. Not all models have a top oven interior light).
The main oven has a light only position.
Slow Cooking ‘S’ The main oven has a “Slow Cook Setting”, ‘S’, this can be used for slow
cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for a short period.
Note: It is advisable to check that all oven controls have been switched off when you have
finished using the appliance.

Oven Timer Operation
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
Automatic Cooking The Main Oven (only) can be controlled by the automatic timer.
Never operate the grill or top oven when the main oven is set to cook
automatically because the oven cavity can become warm and this may cause
bacterial growth in food.
Hints on
Automatic
Cooking
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook and require
approximately the same temperature.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or about to
finish cooking on your return to the oven. This will ensure the
food has not cooled down and does not require reheating
before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven,
ideally straight from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry
should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. We advise that warm food should never be placed in the oven if
there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat
and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat,
for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automatically
if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so
that the delay period is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain
foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start should be kept to
a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the
delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients just before
serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or
tossing in water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to
placing food in the oven.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent
boiling over.
11. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to
prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a
good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
Timer
1. Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.
Operation
2. Check that the electricity supply to the oven is turned On.
3. Check that the oven clock is at the right time of day.

control knob is rotated. With the control rotated clockwise the numbers will show 1 through
to 6 the twin elements will come on together. With the control turned anti-clockwise the
numbers will show 1 through to 6 and the single left hand element will come on only.
The control is Off at O.
Note: The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the OFF position.
Food which requires browning only should be placed under the hot grill, directly on the shelf
in the first or second runner from the bottom of the oven, according to the depth of the dish.
Open the Grill door to the grilling position. i.e. fully.
With the grill door in the grilling position, heating the grill is achieved by turning the control
clockwise to the desired ‘grill setting’ on the control panel, as described under ‘setting the grill’.
Never: line the grill pan with aluminium foil.
Note: When the door is open, air will be blown from beneath the controls by the cooling fan,
and when controls are in the Off position. Preheat the grill at setting 6 for approximately 5
minutes. The grill pan is placed on the shelf and should be correctly positioned under the grill
element. Leave the control at 6 for toast, sealing and fast cooking of foods. For thicker foods
requiring longer cooking, turn the switch to a lower setting after the initial sealing on both
sides at 6. The thicker the food the lower the control should be set.

Using the Top Oven as a Convection Oven
The top oven should be used to cook small quantities of food. The oven is designed so
that the grill element operates at a reduced heat output, this is combined with a
heating element situated underneath the floor of the oven. To ensure even cooking of
the food it is important that cooking utensils are positioned correctly on the oven
shelf so that the element is directly above. As a guide, the front of the utensil should
be approx. 100mm (4”) from the front of the shelf.
Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be
necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C. It may also be necessary to increase
or decrease cooking times.

Never use the grill setting control (A) when warming plates.
Top Oven Utensils
Do Not use: Meat Pans and Baking Trays larger than – 225mm x 300mm (9”x12”)
DO NOT use the grill pan as a meat pan in the top oven, as the air
circulation will be seriously restricted.
20
Using the Main Oven for Fan Cooking
Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly and generally cooks food at a
lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary.
For “Oven Temperature Charts” later in book.
Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be necessary to
increase or decrease temperatures by 10oC. It may also be necessary to increase or decrease
cooking times.
Main Oven Shelf Positioning for Fan Oven
Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of heat in the
main oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.
The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking large quantities of food.
(N.B. Maximum 2 shelves in the main oven).
Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven
for cooking.
DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in use as the surfaces
get extremely hot.

Temperature & Time
When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary to
increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for
the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food.
Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven.

Defrosting frozen meat and poultry
Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in a refrigerator
(allowing 5-6 hours per lb.) or at room temperature (allowing 2-3 hours per lb.).
Frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before cooking in the oven.
However, to decrease the amount of time required to defrost food items, a non-
heating fan only setting may be selected for the main oven only.
Operation: To assist in defrosting:
Place food in the oven and close the oven door.
Fan
Only
Turn the Main Oven Temperature and Function Control (C) clockwise to the
setting.
This defrosts by circulating the air around the food, time to defrost will depend on
type and size of the food.
NOTES: DO NOT defrost meat and poultry by warming the food through.
Foods ideally suited to defrosting using the fan only setting are cream/cream cakes,
butter cream filled cakes, gateaux, cheese cakes, iced cakes, quiches, pastries, biscuits,
bread, croissants, fruit and many delicate frozen foods.
If fish, meat and poultry are to be defrosted using the fan only setting, where possible
it is recommended that the food should be small & thin.
The items should be placed so that the maximum amount of surface area is exposed
to the circulating air, and that they are turned regularly to ensure even defrosting.
Larger cuts of meat and poultry may be defrosted by using the fan only setting up to a
maximum weight of 2 kg (4lb 8oz).
It is important to wash both meat and poultry and cooking utensils immediately after
defrosting and before cooking. Food should be cooked immediately after defrosting.
It is very important to strictly adhere to the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to
prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.

Using the Main Oven for Other Functions
‘S’
“SLOW” Setting
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short
periods. Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be damaged
in a hot oven.
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the
oven lining and the plates which are being warmed.
Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are:
The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.
Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.
Fully loading the oven can be economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours.
Operation:
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.
2. Select ‘S’ (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning Main Oven Temperature &
Function Control (C) clockwise ensuring the oven door is fully closed.
Storage and re-heating of food:
1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately, place it in a clean container
and cool as soon as possible.
2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.
3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.
4. Only re-heat food once.
Points to consider when preparing food for “SLOW” cooking:
1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into the oven ensuring enough room for
air to circulate.
2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a minimum of 6 hours, however, if
they are cooked for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their appearance may be
noticed.
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2.0kg (4lb 8oz).
We do not recommend that joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking on
the slow setting.
4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or poultry at 170˚C for 30 minutes before
wrapping in foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air
circulation) before turning the control to the slow setting and cooking immediately.
5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are thoroughly cooked by checking
with a meat thermometer before serving.
6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. We do not recommend placing
frozen food in the oven to cook.
7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the boil before placing in the oven.
8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal (not airtight) and cover to the top with
foil to prevent loss of moisture.
9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even sized small pieces to cook properly.
10. Always adjust seasoning before serving.
11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important that the beans are soaked and then
boiled for a minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any toxins.
12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be necessary to check during cooking to avoid
overcooking.

GRILL
Uneven cooking front to back
Ensure that the grill pan is positioned centrally below the grill
element.
Fat splattering
Ensure that the grill pan is not lined with foil.
Ensure that the grill setting control (A) is not set too high.
If Solarplus grill – use anti-splash tray supplied under the
food support.
BAKING GENERAL
Uneven rising of cakes
Sinking of cakes
Ensure that the oven shelves are level.
The following may cause cakes to sink:
1. Pre-heating of fan ovens – not always necessary.
2. Cooking at too high a temperature – reduce standard
temperatures by 25˚C for fan ovens.
3. Using normal creaming method with a soft margarine.
If using soft margarine, use an all in one method instead of
the traditional creaming of the margarine and sugar.
Remember when using a food mixer or processor not to
over-cream soft margarine.
Over/undercooking
Refer to the cooking times and temperatures given in the
Oven Temperature Charts provided, however, it may be
necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10˚C
to suit personal taste.
Do not use utensils greater than 56mm (2l⁄4'') in height for
roasting.
TOP OVEN BAKING
Uneven cooking front to back
Ensure that the cooking utensil is at least 100mm (4") from the
front of the shelf.
Uneven rising
Ensure that the shelf is level (as above) and that the food is
positioned correctly in the oven.
Overcooking
Remember to reduce cooking temperatures by 10˚C from
standard recipes when using the top oven.
Food is taking too long to cook
Ensure that the cooking utensil used in the top oven is not
larger than 300mm x 225mm (12"x 9"), e.g. Do Not use the
main oven meat pan.
Only cook one item at a time to avoid overloading the oven.

Care and Cleaning
Warning: Before cleaning, please ensure that the electricity supply to the appliance is switched off
and the appliance is fully cold.
1. “CREDACLEAN” OVEN LINERS
(a) How "Credaclean" works.
TOP OVEN SIDE LINERS
The surfaces of the "Credaclean" oven liners are treated with a
special vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils.
At temperatures of 220˚C (425˚F) or above, the special surface
enables these soils to be slowly destroyed.
The higher the temperature the more effective it is.
(b) Cleaning.
In most cases normal cooking operations at 220˚C (425˚F) will
permit this cleaning operation to proceed during cooking.
However if higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly,
it may be necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run
the ovens without shelves or meat pan, at a maximum setting
for a couple of hours.
It should not normally be necessary to clean the "Credaclean"
panels with water. If the user feels it is desirable to do so, wipe
them over with a clean, soapy cloth, followed by a wipe with a
MAIN OVEN SIDE LINERS
AND REAR PANEL
clean damp cloth.
DO NOT use biological washing powder, harsh abrasives or
chemical oven cleaners of any kind as this could damage the
“Credaclean” liners.

Installation
Electrical Requirements
For your own safety, we recommend that your cooker is installed by a competent
person such as one who is registered with NICEIC (National Inspection Council for
Electrical Installation Contracting). The cooker should be installed in accordance with
the latest edition of the IEE Regulations.
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
Electrical Connections
The installer must check that the voltage shown at the rating plate corresponds with
the house electricity supply.
The cooker must be supplied via a suitable double pole isolating switch, having a
contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles placed in a readily accessible position
adjacent to the cooker.
If the cooker is to be wired into a connector unit, this may be positioned behind the
cooker providing the following requirements are met:
i) The connector unit must not project from the wall more than 25mm.
ii) The top of the connector must not be more than 130mm above floor level.
Remove the terminal cover at the rear base of the cooker. Pass the cable through the
cable clamp and connect to the appropriate terminals provided.
Allow sufficient cable for any future servicing.
Tighten the screws on the cable clamp and replace the cover.
Make main connections in the connector unit or cooker control unit.
This appliance conforms to B.S. EN 55014 regarding suppression of Radio and
Television reception interference.
A double Pole control switch having a minimum rating of 32 amps should be used to
feed the cooker using a suitably rated cable.
Where a hob is fitted adjacent to or over the cooker, a 45 amp Double Pole control
switch should be used to feed both units via separate suitably rated cables.
We recommend a minimum of 4mm2 PVC insulated twin and earth cable conforming to
B.S. 6004 for connection of each appliance.
In all cases adhere to routing details (see fig. 4).
This appliance must not be installed over any other appliance that generates heat
such as a plinth heater.
Note: Due to many different types of installation, a mains cable is not
supplied with this product. The installer will fit the correct type and length of
cable.
32
Installation
Important
It is essential that the lower cupboard is constructed in the manner illustrated i.e.
having side, back, and roof panels so joined as to provide no apertures which could
permit access to the oven unit when installed.
1. General
The appliance is designed for mounting at a safe level into an oven housing which
must be secured to the backing wall.
2. Ventilation
a. The oven housing unit cabinet dimensions must comply with fig. 4.
b. An air gap of 50mm minimum must be provided at the rear of any top or bottom
cupboards or shelves (see fig. 1).
c. It is necessary that the cabinets are provided with unobstructed ventilation, i.e.
from adjacent cabinetry. This can be done by either raising the base of the
cabinets using the adjusting feet (or spacers) or alternatively by providing a slot in
the cabinet plinth to the dimensions in fig. 1.
d. The air gap at rear allows the warmed air to pass out of the inner cabinet space.
Where it is intended to fit cupboards above the oven unit to ceiling height, it is
essential that the warmed air is exhausted through the front of the cabinet
(see fig. 1).
e. If an oven unit is installed adjacent to a tall cabinet, steam escaping from the oven
when the door is opened could condense on and maybe stain the adjacent
surface. To prevent permanent staining, the adjacent surface should be made of a
material that is heat resisting and easy to clean. Adjacent tall cabinets should not
be deeper than the oven housing cabinet.
3. Final Installation
a. Using a spirit level, check that the housing cabinet is level from side to side and
from front to back in its installed position.
b. Correct any unevenness by placing spacers under the bottom of the cabinet.
Make sure that the cabinet rests firmly on the floor without rocking.
c. Before the oven is fitted, the cabinet must be firmly secured to the backing wall for
stability.
d. The oven unit should now be lifted (this is a two person lift) into the cabinet and
pushed fully home.
e. Finally, the oven is secured to the cabinet by means of the four Pozi Wash Head
screws - two through each side trim.
f. Remove all packaging material from the grill and oven interior.
List of loose items:
4 x Pozi Wash Head No. 6 x 15mm screws.
