INTRODUCTION  
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE  
EARTHED  
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE  
CONTROLS  
The cooling fan operates immediately when the grill  
is switched on and after a period of time when the  
oven is switched on. It may run on after the controls  
are switched off until the appliance has cooled.  
RATING PLATE  
This is situated on the front frame of the appliance  
and can be seen upon opening the door.  
Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on  
the back or top of some models (where applicable).  
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 run on where the grill or  
oven has been used for a short time or at low  
temperatures.  
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated  
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is  
given on the rating plate.  
Do not switch the appliance off at its power point  
until the cooling fan has cooled the appliance down.  
Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance  
as this may invalidate the guarantee.  
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR  
APPLIANCE  
COOKWARE  
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed  
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back  
of the oven.  
We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 –  
15 minutes at 220oC to burn off any residue from  
their surfaces. The procedure should be repeated  
with the grill for approximately 5 – 10 minutes.  
During this period an odour may be emitted, it is  
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.  
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm  
(12” x 14”) as they will restrict the circulation of heat  
and may affect performance.  
TO USE THE MINUTE MINDER  
OVEN INDICATOR NEON  
To use the Minute Minder turn the control knob to the  
required time.  
The light will indicate whether the oven is switched  
on, the neon also indicates when the set temperature  
has been reached. The neon will turn on and off  
during use to show that the temperature is being  
maintained.  
The Minute Minder, when set, will mark the end of a  
timed period with an acoustic alarm. The maximum  
timing is 120 minutes.  
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM  
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a  
boiling kettle. The oven is vented to allow some of  
this steam to escape. However, always stand back  
from the appliance when opening the oven door to  
allow any build up of steam or heat to release.  
TIMER  
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface  
on the outside of the cooker, e.g. a trim, it will  
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite  
normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.  
Please Note: the longer the set time duration, the  
longer the acoustic alarm will sound.  
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away  
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.  
The Minute Minder will not affect in any way the oven  
operation if it is in use.

THE GRILL  
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE  
The grill pan has a removable handle.  
WARNING – Accessible parts become hot  
when the grill is in use. Keep children  
away.  
To insert the handle, press the button on the handle  
slightly upwards inserting the lip into the widest part  
of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left,  
lower into position and release the button.  
USES OF THE GRILL  
The grill is situated in the top compartment.  
The grill gives variable heat settings. Use the high  
numbers for foods that cook quickly such as toast  
and the lower numbers to cook thicker foods such as  
chicken after it has been browned on the high  
number.  
HOW TO USE THE GRILL  
1. To operate the grill open the grill door and turn the  
grill control in either direction.  
Ensure the handle is properly located.  
To remove the handle, press the button on the  
handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly  
upwards and towards the right to remove from the  
bracket.  
2. The highest number represents the hottest setting  
and the lowest number the coolest.  
3. Setting 5 represents the grill on Full.  
At lower settings the grill may turn on and off over  
time and you may prefer to use these settings for  
keeping food warm.  
The food will however  
continue to cook gently if the grill is used for this  
purpose.  
Protect your hands when removing the grill  
pan handle.  
Always remove the grill pan handle during  
grilling.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING  
GRILLING  
To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure  
that the cut out on the underside of the handle  
bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.  
Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident as  
the grill cleans itself.  
16  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
S Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to  
minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish  
lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep  
them moist during cooking.  
The grill pan must not be located in the  
shelf runners.  
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the  
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to  
food during cooking.  
Ensure that you support the grill pan when  
it is withdrawn.  
S Accompaniments such as tomatoes and  
mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid  
when grilling meats.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
S Most foods should be placed on the grilling grid  
in the grill pan. This allows maximum circulation  
of air by raising the food out of fats and juices.  
S The food should be turned over during cooking  
as required.  
S Adjust the grid and grill pan runner to allow for  
different thicknesses of food. Position the food  
close to the element for faster cooking and  
further away for more gentle cooking.  
S The grill door must be left open when grilling.  
For convenience the grill door can be left ajar.  
S The grill pan is reversible. This is useful if you  
want to cook foods of varying thicknesses. As a  
general rule, bread for toasting should be placed  
on the grid in the ‘high’ position in the grill pan.  
Foods such as chicken pieces or chops may be  
grilled using the grilling grid in the low position.  
S Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes  
before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat  
setting and the shelf position as necessary during  
cooking.

THE FAN OVEN  
USES OF THE FAN OVEN  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The Fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking  
larger quantities of food, or for weekend or  
celebration meals.  
S The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven  
has reached the desired temperature and then  
go out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically  
during cooking showing that the temperature is  
being maintained.  
The advantages of Fan oven cooking are:  
The oven fan will operate continually during  
cooking.  
PREHEATING  
The Fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is  
not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without  
preheating however you may need to add an extra 5  
– 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.  
For recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread,  
pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are  
achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best  
results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready  
meals preheat the oven first.  
S The cooling fan for the controls may operate after  
a time. See page 14 for further details on the  
operation of the cooling fan.  
TO FIT THE FAN OVEN SHELVES  
There are 7 shelf positions in the oven. Shelf  
positions are counted from the bottom upwards.  
COOKING TEMPERATURES  
7
1
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower  
temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the  
temperatures recommended in the chart on page 21  
until you are familiar with the lower temperatures  
associated with Fan oven cooking. As a guide  
reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own  
recipes, using a conventional oven.  
BATCH BAKING  
The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods  
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the  
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt  
and safety stop mechanism will be affected.  
The Fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels,  
especially useful when batch baking.  
HOW TO USE THE FAN OVEN  
1. Turn the Fan oven temperature control to the

HINTS AND TIPS  
S Arrange the shelves in the required positions  
before switching the oven on. Shelf positions are  
counted from the bottom upwards.  
S When cooking more than one dish in the fan  
oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves  
rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf,  
this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the  
best cooking results.  
S It is recommended that when baking larger  
quantities, the shelf positions should be evenly  
spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight  
increase in cooking time may be necessary.  
S The material and finish of the baking tray and  
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of  
the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick  
utensils increase base browning. Shiny  
aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat  
away and give less base browning.  
S The use of excessively high temperatures can  
cause uneven browning. It may be necessary to  
reduce temperatures slightly.  
Refer to the  
recommendations given in the oven cooking  
chart, on page 21.  
S For economy leave the door open for the shortest  
possible time, particularly when placing food into  
a pre-heated oven.

DEFROST FEATURE  
USES OF DEFROST FEATURE  
S The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by  
room temperature. On warm days defrosting will  
be faster than on cooler days.  
This fan oven function enables you to defrost most  
foods without heat 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.  
S It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry  
slowly in the fridge. However, this process can  
be accelerated by using the defrost function.  
Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns,  
cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks  
etc., can be thawed in 1 – 2 hours.  
HOW TO DEFROST  
S A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in  
approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as  
soon as possible during the thawing process.  
1. Turn the Fan oven temperature control to Defrost  
setting.  
S Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be  
thawed using the defrost function.  
S ALL JOINTS OF MEAT AND POULTRY MUST  
BE  
THAWED  
THOROUGHLY  
BEFORE  
COOKING.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
S The oven fan will operate.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
S Place the frozen food in a single layer where  
possible and turn it over half way through the  
defrosting process.  
S ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY  
AFTER THAWING.  
S DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it  
is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store  
cooked food in the fridge, once it has cooled.  
S Care must always be taken when handling foods  
in the home. Always follow the basic rules of  
food hygiene to prevent bacterial growth and  
cross contamination when defrosting, preparing,  
cooking cooling and freezing foods.

During normal use the Stayclean coating will become  
splashed with fats and food residues. By running the  
oven without food, the Stayclean surfaces burn off  
any soilage.  
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or  
has deep scratches the glass will be  
weakened and must be replaced to prevent  
the possibility of the panel shattering.  
Please contact your local Service Force  
Centre who will be pleased to advise  
further.

COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE  
S Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher  
temperatures during roasting will increase  
soilage. Try cooking at lower temperature for an  
increased length of time, you will save energy  
and often the joint is more tender.  
S Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting  
meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat  
before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during  
roasting will increase splashing and soilage.  
S It is NOT necessary to add water to a meat tin  
when roasting. The water and the fat juices from  
the joint create excessive splattering during  
cooking – even at normal temperatures, as well  
as causing condensation.  
S Covering joints during cooking will also prevent  
splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing  
the covering for the last 20 - 30 minutes will allow  
extra browning if required. Some large joints and  
turkeys especially benefit by this method of  
cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before  
the outside is over-browned.
