The Cooling Fan for the Controls  
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when either of the  
ovens are in use. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. During the  
initial period the cooling fan may turn ON and OFF, this is quite normal.  
Control Panel Indicator Neons  
These lights indicate whether the grill or ovens are switched ON. In the case of the ovens, the neons also  
indicate when the set temperature has been reached. The indicator neon will go out when the oven has  
reached the set temperature. It will turn on and off during cooking to show that the oven temperature is being  
maintained.  
If the neons 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.

BEFORE USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME  
When First Switching on  
The oven has a 24 hour clock. When the oven is  
first switched on at the wall the electronic display  
will automatically show 12.00, the 'Time' (  
neon will also flash.  
)
To set the time of day and use the timer refer to  
instructions on page 7.  
Rating plate  
This is situated on the lower front frame of the  
oven and can be seen upon opening the main  
cavity door. Alternatively the rating plate may also  
be found on the back or top of some models  
(where applicable).  
The oven must be protected by a suitably rated  
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the oven is  
given on the rating plate.  
The rating plate must not be removed from the  
oven front frame as this may invalidate the  
guarantee.  
Preparing to use your oven  
Clean the ovens with a soft cloth and hot soapy  
water and wash the grill and oven furniture before  
use.  
The grill and ovens should be heated without food  
to burn off any residue from the elements. To do  
this, run the ovens at 220°C for 10 - 15 minutes.  
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  
ventilation.  
a
window for  
Condensation and Steam  
When food is heated it produces steam in the  
same way as a boiling kettle does. The ovens are  
vented to allow some of this steam to escape.  
However, always stand back from the appliance  
when opening the oven doors to allow any build up  
of steam or heat to be released. If the steam  
comes into contact with a cool surface on the  
outside of the appliance, 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.  
To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly wipe  
away condensation and any soilage from the  
appliance surfaces.  
Cookware  
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be  
placed directly against the grid covering the fan at  
the back of the oven.  
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.Do not place  
bakeware directly on the second oven base  
when7the oven is on as damage to the oven  
enamel and bakeware will occur.

6. THINGS TO NOTE  
In the event of an interruption of the electricity  
supply, the timer will reset itself to zero, and all  
programming will be cancelled.  
7. AUTOMATIC COOKING  
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as  
short a time as possible before automatic  
cooking. Always ensure commercially prepared  
food is well within its use by date and that  
home prepared food is fresh and of good  
quality.  
When cooking is complete, do not leave food  
to stand in the oven, but remove and cool it  
quickly if the food is not to be consumed  
immediately.  
Always ensure food in the oven has been  
covered before cooking if it is not possible to  
remove food immediately after cooking.

THE DUAL GRILL  
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS  
IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.  
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes,  
the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food.  
USING THE GRILL  
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.  
1. To operate the grill turn the grill control  
clockwise for full grill or anticlockwise for centre  
section only.  
2. The highest number represents the hottest  
setting and the lowest the coolest setting.  
3. Ensure the second oven control is in the OFF  
position '0'.  
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT  
OPEN DURING GRILLING.  
IF  
CLOSED THE ELEMENTS WILL  
SWITCH OFF AND THE OVEN  
LIGHT WILL TURN ON AND OFF  
AS A WARNING.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The cooling fan for the controls will operate in  
conjunction with the grill. For more information  
on the operation of the cooling fan see page 4.  
The grill indicator neon will glow until the  
desired power level has been reached. It will  
turn ON and OFF periodically during cooking  
showing that the temperature is being  
maintained.  
The outer grill element may appear to glow  
slightly brighter than the inner element. This is  
quite normal.  
The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the  
grill compartment.  
Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident  
as the grill cleans itself.

THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE  
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.  
1. To attach the handle, place the wirework under  
the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate  
hooks over the top of the grill pan.  
1.  
2. Slide the handle to the left and over the central  
bump on the grill pan.  
Ensure the handle is correctly located.  
The grill pan handle should be in place  
when grilling.  
2.  
3.  
3. To remove the handle, slide the handle to the  
right and lift the handle away from the cut out  
on the grill pan.  
Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is  
positioned centrally beneath the grill.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Most foods should be placed on the grid in the  
grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to  
lift the food out of the fats and juices.  
Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to  
allow for different thicknesses of food. Position  
the food close to the element for faster cooking  
and further away for more gentle cooking.  
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.  
Accompaniments such as tomatoes and  
mushrooms may be placed around the outer  
edges or underneath the grid when grilling  
meats.  
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top  
runner position is used with the grid in its 'high'  
position.  
12  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes  
to seal meat or for toasting. Adjust the heat  
setting and the shelf as necessary during  
cooking.  
The food should be turned over during cooking  
as required.  
When using the centre section grill, ensure food  
is placed centrally on the grilling grid directly  
beneath the grill element.  
Note  
If you require an additional handle for your grill pan,  
this can be ordered from your local Service Force  
Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6.

THE SECOND OVEN  
The second oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It  
is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food on one shelf. It gives especially good results if used to cook  
fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche.  
The second oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a  
temperature setting of 80° - 100°C on the second oven temperature control.  
USING THE SECOND OVEN  
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.  
1. Ensure the grill control is in the off, 'O' position.  
2. Turn the second oven temperature control to  
the required setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The second 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 cooling fan for the controls will operate,  
after a period of time. For more information on  
the operation of the cooling fan, see page 4.  
The internal oven light will come on.  
Dishes, tins or trays should not be  
placed directly on the oven floor as it  
becomes very hot and damage will  
occur.  
TO FIT THE SECOND OVEN SHELF  
The cranked shelf 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.  
To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until  
the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front  
so that the stops clear the side supports. Lift shelf  
clear. To install a shelf, reverse the above steps.

HINTS AND TIPS  
All cooking should be carried out using shelf  
positions one and two using a cranked shelf.  
Shelf positions are counted from the bottom  
upwards.  
When more space is required, for example  
when roasting or casseroling, a straight shelf  
from the main oven may be placed on the  
second oven base.  
There should always be at least 2.5cm (1")  
between the top of the food and the element.  
This gives best cooking results and allows room  
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings  
etc. When cooking cakes, pastry, scones,  
bread etc., place the tins or baking trays  
centrally below the element.  
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf  
and there is sufficient room around the baking  
tray/dish to allow for maximum circulation.  
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to  
prevent spillage onto the oven base and to help  
reduce cleaning.  
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.  
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as a  
baking tray as this will increase base  
browning of the food.  
Because of the smaller cooking space, lower  
temperatures and shorter cooking times are  
sometimes required. Be guided by the  
recommendations on page 18.  
For economy leave the door open for the  
shortest possible time, particularly when placing  
food into a pre-heated oven.  
DO NOT place cookware and cooking  
pots with rough bases e.g. cast iron on  
the oven door as damage to the glass  
may occur.

THE MAIN FAN OVEN  
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.  
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:  
PREHEATING  
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without  
preheating however, you may find you 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  
always preheat the oven first.  
COOKING TEMPERATURES  
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures  
recommended in the chart on page 18. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C-25°C for your own  
recipes.  
BATCH BAKING  
The fan oven cooks evenly on both shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.  
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.  
1. Turn the main oven temperature control to the  
required setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The main 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 oven fan will operate continually during  
cooking.  
The cooling fan for the controls operates after a  
period of time.  
The internal oven light will come on.  
If an automatic programme has been set the  
oven fan and light do not come on until cooking  
begins.  
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES  
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. Only  
use straight shelves in the main oven.  
To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until  
the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front  
so that the stops clear the side supports. Lift shelf  
clear. To install a shelf, reverse the above steps.

HINTS AND TIPS  
Arrange the shelves in the required positions  
before switching the oven ON. Shelves are  
numbered from the bottom upwards.  
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.  
When batch baking one type of food, e.g.  
Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size  
will be cooked in the same time.  
Do not use the cranked shelf from the  
grill in the main oven.  
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.  
DO NOT place cookware and cooking  
pots with rough bases e.g. cast iron on  
the oven door as damage to the glass  
may occur.  
DO NOT place baking trays directly on the  
oven floor as it interferes with the oven air  
circulation and can lead to base burning; use  
the lower shelf position. However, non-critical  
dishes may be placed on the oven base when  
more space is required.  
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 see page 18.

DEFROSTING  
This main 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.  
USING DEFROST FEATURE  
Please note: D2160-1G control knobs will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram.  
1. Turn the main oven temperature control to the  
defrost setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The oven indicator neon may glow and turn on  
and off when defrosting.  
The oven fan and oven light will come on.  
The cooling fan does not operate.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Place the frozen food in a single layer where  
possible and turn it over half way through the  
defrosting process.  
The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by  
room temperature. On warm days defrosting  
will be faster than on cooler days.  
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.  
A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed  
in approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets  
as soon as possible during the thawing  
process.  
20  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be  
thawed using the defrost function.  
All joints of meat and poultry must be thawed  
thoroughly before cooking.  
Always cook thoroughly immediately after  
thawing.  
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.  
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.

HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD  
Care must be taken when handling foods in the  
home. Always follow the basic rules of food  
hygiene to prevent bacterial and microbial growth  
and cross contamination when preparing,  
reheating, cooking, cooling, defrosting and freezing  
foods.  
MEAT  
Beef  
TEMPERATURES  
Rare - 60°C  
Medium - 70°C  
Well Done - 80°C  
Pork  
Well Done - 80°C  
1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good  
quality and in prime condition. Shop at a  
reliable source and buy the 'freshest' looking  
package - avoid shop worn labels or produce  
covered in dust.  
Lamb  
Medium - 70°C  
Well Done - 80°C  
11. If not eaten straight away after cooking, food  
should be cooled as quickly as possible (within  
one hour) and then refrigerated or frozen as  
required. Do not put hot food into a refrigerator  
or freezer.  
2. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you  
cannot store them straight away. The use of an  
insulated container when shopping is advisable.  
12. In the kitchen keep worktops, chopping boards  
and utensils clean with hot soapy water  
between preparation stages. Ideally, keep one  
chopping board for raw meat and another for  
other foods. Keep your dish cloths and tea  
towels clean.  
3. Buy and consume foods prior to the 'Sell by' or  
'Best Before' date.  
4. When you arrive home, place perishable foods  
in the refrigerator or freezer immediately.  
Ensure they are well covered to prevent them  
drying out and to prevent any possible cross  
contamination with bacteria from raw to cooked  
foods.  
5. Follow the cooking instructions on packets of  
prepacked and cooked chilled foods, but be  
prepared to adjust cooking times and  
temperatures to suit your particular oven. For  
example, the Fan Oven generally requires  
20-25°C lower temperature than conventional  
ovens.  
6. Always ensure that cooked chilled foods are  
thoroughly reheated until they are piping hot  
throughout.  
7. It is preferable to defrost frozen foods slowly in  
the refrigerator. Alternatively, a microwave  
appliance or the Defrost function on your oven  
may be used.  
8. Always cook defrosted foods immediately after  
thawing. Thawed food should never be  
refrozen.  
9. Joints of meat and poultry should be thoroughly  
defrosted before cooking.  
10. Cook meat thoroughly  
-
use  
a
meat  
thermometer if preferred, which penetrates the  
joint to check that the centre temperature has  
reached the required temperature (see table  
below).

CARE AND CLEANING  
BEFORE  
CLEANING  
THE  
OVEN  
ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN  
TO COOL THE OVEN DOWN BEFORE  
SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY  
SUPPLY.  
CLEANING MATERIALS  
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven,  
check that they are suitable and that their use is  
recommended by the manufacturer.  
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used  
as they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh  
abrasives and scourers should also be avoided as  
damage will occur.  
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE  
OVEN  
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven doors  
and handles using a soft cloth and hot soapy  
water. To prevent streaking finish with a soft cloth.  
Do not attempt to remove any of the  
control knobs from the panel as this may  
cause damage and is a safety hazard.  
Under no circumstances should the door  
assembly be detached from the product  
for cleaning. Please refer to the cleaning  
instructions.  
Model D2160-1M only  
Stainless steel cream cleaners can be abrasive  
and should be avoided as damage to the surface  
finish can occur. Washing up liquid and hot water  
or liquid stainless steel cleaners such as Homecare  
Stainless Steel Cleanser and Polish may be used  
to remove fingermarks.  
CLEANING THE GOLD HANDLES  
(Model D2160-1G only)  
It is strongly recommended that only hot water to  
which a little washing up liquid has been added and  
a soft cloth is used for cleaning the gold handles.

CHOICE OF ELECTRICAL  
CONNECTION  
There are three possible ways to connect your  
appliance. In each case the appliance should be  
operated using at least 6mm2 twin core and  
earth PVC insulated multicore cable. Please  
choose from the most appropriate after reading  
the different methods:-  
a) By connecting the appliance to a cooker point  
(having a double pole isolating switch with at  
least 3mm contact separation in all poles and  
neutral) and protected with a fuse or miniature  
circuit breaker at your mains fuse box.  
Subject to Regional Electricity Company  
regulations if you wish to connect the  
oven and hob to the power supply you  
may use one of the following two  
methods:-  
b) By connecting the appliance together with a hob  
directly to a cooker point(s). Having a double  
pole isolating switch with at least 3mm contact  
separation in all poles and neutral.  
c) If you wish to connect an oven and a hob to a  
cooker point you can by connecting the oven  
and hob separately to the cooker point. Oven  
and hob units should be separately connected  
to a control panel. See Fig. 2.

NOTE: It is good practice to:  
Fit an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker to your  
house wiring.  
Wire your appliance to the latest IEE  
regulations.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
This appliance is designed to be fitted in  
cabinets of the recommended dimensions as  
shown (Fig. 3), page 33.  
If your cabinet interior dimension is between  
565-570mm the oven may still be fitted.  
However, a minor modification to the cabinet  
will be required to reduce the aperture size  
down to 560-565mm. To allow the product to  
be securely screwed into the cabinet.  
The dimensions given provide adequate air  
circulation around the unit within the cabinet,  
ensuring compliance with BS EN60-335.  
Enquiries regarding the installation of the  
cooker point if required should be made to your  
Regional Electricity Company to ensure  
compliance with their regulations.  
The cooker socket switch should be outside the  
cabinet but within 2m of the appliance to make  
it accessible to switch off the appliance in case  
of an emergency.  
To protect the hands wear gloves when lifting  
the oven into its housing.  
Do not lift the appliance by the handles.  
NOTE: HOUSE CIRCUIT  
Earth leakage and continuity tests must be carried  
out before the appliance is connected to the mains  
supply and re-checked after fitting.  
PREPARING CABINET FOR FITTING OF  
OVEN  
Make sure the cabinet is the correct size for the  
appliance to be fitted (Ref. Fig. 3), page 33.  
If the size is between 565-570mm, then the  
cabinet should be modified so that at the screw  
fixing points the recommended dimension of at  
least  
560-565mm  
is  
maintained.  
The  
modification should ideally be localised to  
ensure that after screw fitment the oven is  
securely fixed into position.  
The cabinet must be stable and level by firmly  
securing it to the wall or floor. If necessary,  
make arrangements to ensure the shelf upon  
which the oven will rest is level.  
When the appliance is installed ensure a  
minimum gap of 2mm is maintained between  
the trim on the bottom edge of the appliance  
and any corresponding door/ panel underneath.

Adhesive Tape  
Tape Measure  
MAKING THE ELECTRICAL  
CONNECTIONS  
Important: Switch off at mains,  
miniature circuit breaker and, if  
appropriate,  
remove  
fuse  
before  
commencing any electrical work  
PREPARING CABLE  
We recommend you use a new length of cable to  
ensure your safety.  
Ensure you have the correct length of cable  
appropriate to the wiring method you are using.  
When fitting new cable allow sufficient cable for  
removal of the unit at a later date, should it be  
necessary.  
Score, but do not cut through, around the  
sheathing with a knife 100mm (4in) from each  
end of the cable and break through to the  
encased wires by bending the cable backwards  
and forwards to fatigue the sheathing.  
Carefully score down from each end of the  
cable sheathing along the length of the bare  
earth wire (if a cut was made along the length  
of the live and neutral wires, it might cut into  
their sheathing) to the cuts already made.  
Carefully prise open the sheathing at each end  
of the cable to expose the encased wiring.
