Dual Grill
Top Oven
Fan Oven
Your built-under appliance comprises of a conventional oven and dual grill in the top compartment. The top oven is
convenient and economical for mid-week use because of its size.
The main fan oven is the larger of the two ovens. It is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.
The main fan oven can be automatically controlled by the timer.

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
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, and the 'Time' (
) neon
will also flash.
To set the time of day and use the timer refer to
instructions on page 9.
RATING PLATE
This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the top
cavity door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be
found on the back or top of some models (where
applicable).
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 remove the rating plate from the appliance
as this may invalidate the guarantee.
PREPARING TO USE YOUR APPLIANCE
Wipe over the base of the ovens with a soft cloth and
hot soapy water and wash the grill and oven furniture
before use.
We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 –
15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from
their surfaces.
The procedure should be repeated with the grill for
approximately 5 – 10 minutes.
During this period and odour may be emitted, it is
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
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 release. 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.
6
COOKWARE
Baking trays, 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. Advice on the effect of
different materials and finishes of bakeware is given
in ‘Hints and Tips’ in the appropriate oven section.
Note. The meat tin should not be placed on a heated
hotplate as this may cause the enamel to crack.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE
CONTROLS
Your appliance has a cooling fan fitted behind the
controls to prevent them from overheating.
The cooling fan will come on immediately when the
grill is switched on and after a short time when either
of the ovens are in use.
The cooling fan may turn on and off when the
appliance is in use. This is quite normal.
The cooling fan may run on after the ovens or grill
are switched off for a period of time to cool the
appliance down. It may continue to switch on and off
until the appliance is cool.
Always allow the cooling fan to cool the
appliance down before switching off at the
wall prior to carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
NOTE
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long
the ovens or grill have been used and at what
temperature. It may not switch on at all at lower
temperature settings nor run on where the grill or
oven has only been used for a short time.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the ovens or grill are
switched on. In the case of the ovens, the top and
fan oven neons also indicate when the set
temperature has been reached. They will turn on
and off during use to show that the temperature is
being maintained.
The fan oven neon does not operate with the Defrost
setting.

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.
12
THE DUAL GRILL
WARNING – Accessible parts become hot
when the grill is in use. Keep children
away.
USES OF THE GRILL
The grill is situated in the Top oven compartment.
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full
area of the grill or the centre section only can be
used. Use the centre section for economy purposes
when cooking smaller quantities.
HOW TO USE THE DUAL GRILL
1. Open the Grill / Top Oven door.
2. Turn the grill control clockwise for full grill or
anticlockwise for the centre section only.
3. Ensure the Top Oven control is in the Off position
‘0’.
The grill door must be left open when
grilling.
The grill pan must not be located in the
shelf runners.
THINGS TO NOTE
•
•
•
•
The cooling fan for the controls will operate as
soon as the grill control is turned. For more
information on the operation of the cooling fan
turn to page 7.
The outer section of the grill element may appear
to glow brighter than the inner section. This is
quite normal
The grill indicator neon will glow until the desired
power level has been reached. It will turn ON
and OFF periodically during cooking showing the
temperature is being maintained.
5
4
3
You can use the grill pan on the shelf in positions
3 and 5 only.
2
1
If you use the grill pan in position 3 the
shelf must be withdrawn before the pan can
be located or removed.
Ensure the grill pan is properly located.
13
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
The grill pan has a removable handle.
To insert the handle, press the button on the handle
with the thumb and pivot 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.
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.
Protect your hands when removing the grill
pan handle.
Always remove the grill pan handle 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.
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.
HINTS AND TIPS
•
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.
Ensure that you support the grill pan when
it is withdrawn.
•
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.
14
•
•
•
•
•
•
The grill pan grid 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.
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 underneath the grid
when grilling meats.
The food should be turned over during cooking
as required.
The grill door must be left open when grilling.
For convenience the grill door can be left ajar.
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 TOP OVEN
USES OF THE TOP OVEN
The Top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. The
Top oven is a conventional oven, i.e. without a fan. It
is convenient where smaller quantities or
convenience foods are being cooked. It is important
to refer to the cooking chart as a guide to shelf
positions and temperatures as these may differ from
previous appliances you may have used.
HOW TO USE THE TOP OVEN
1. Turn the Top Oven temperature control to the
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
•
•
The Top 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 time. See page 7 for more information on the
operation of the cooling fan.
Do not place dishes, tins and trays directly
on the oven base as it becomes very hot
and damage will occur.
5

3
TO FIT THE OVEN SHELF
There are 5 shelf positions in the Top oven.
Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards.
2
1
The 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.
17
HINTS AND TIPS
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Use the Top oven when you want to warm plates.
Use a setting of 80°C – 100°C on the oven
temperature control.

For the best results use one shelf in the Top
oven. For the best results food should be placed
in the centre of the oven. To increase top
browning e.g. for au gratin dishes, the food
should be placed towards the top of the oven.
Similarly for foods which benefit from the base
being browned, e.g. pizza, quiches and flans,
place the food on a lower shelf.
There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”)
between the top of the food and the grill 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 on the
shelf.
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf
and there is sufficient room around the baking
tray or dish to allow for maximum circulation.
Where a larger quantity of food is to be cooked
we recommend you use the fan oven.
Place dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on
the shelf 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 of 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 and lower
temperatures, shorter cooking times are
sometimes required. Be guided by the
recommendations in the cooking chart.
For economy leave the door open for the shortest
possible time, particularly when placing food into
a pre-heated oven.

THE FAN OVEN
USES OF THE FAN OVEN
The Fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking
larger quantities of food, or for weekend or
celebration meals.
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 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.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the
temperatures recommended in the chart on page 22
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.
BATCH BAKING
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
required setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
•
•
•
•
•
The oven light will come on when the control is
turned.
The oven fan will operate continually during
cooking.
The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a time. See page 7 for further details on the
operation of the cooling fan.
The fan oven indicator neon will glow until it has
reached the desired temperature. It will turn on
and off periodically during cooking showing that
the temperature is being maintained.
If an automatic programme has been set, the
oven fan and oven light do not come on until the
cook time begins.
20
TO FIT THE FAN 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.
HINTS AND TIPS
•
Arrange the shelves in the required positions
before switching the oven on. Shelf positions are
counted from the bottom upwards.
14
1
•
•
•
•
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.
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.
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.
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 22.

DEFROST FEATURE
USES OF DEFROST FEATURE
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.
HOW TO DEFROST
1. Turn the Fan oven temperature control to Defrost
setting.
THINGS TO NOTE
•
The oven fan and internal oven light will 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.
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
thawing.
thoroughly

after
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.
24
CARE AND CLEANING
Before cleaning the appliance always allow
the cooling fan for the controls to cool the
appliance down before switching off the
electricity supply.
CLEANING MATERIALS
Before using any cleaning materials on your
appliance, check that they are suitable and that their

NOT use abrasives as they may damage the glass or
seal.
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVENS
The oven roofs, sides, main oven back panel and grill
deflector are coated with a Stayclean finish.
The Stayclean areas should not be cleaned
manually. See Care of Stayclean Surfaces on page
28.
The base of the ovens and the grill / top oven
compartment back panel can be cleaned using
normal oven cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with
care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are
followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards.
Do not use any cleaning agents or scrapers on the
Stayclean finish.
Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool
pads, aerosol cleaners or any abrasive cleaners
are used.

Ensure that the wirework runners are firmly
in place before refitting the oven shelves.
CLEANING THE SHELVES, WIREWORK
RUNNERS AND GRILL/OVEN FURNITURE
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can
be washed in the dishwasher.
The grill pan, grill pan grid, deflector, meat tin, oven
shelves and wirework runners may be cleaned using
a soap impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in
hot soapy water will make cleaning easier.
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES
The roofs and sides of both ovens and the main oven
back panel are coated with a Stayclean finish. They
should not be cleaned manually.
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean
surfaces and must not come into contact with
elements or the door seal, as this may cause
damage.
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. Regular use of the oven cleaning
cycle will help to keep the panels in good condition.
See page 29.
28
THE OVEN CLEANING CYCLE – BOTH
OVENS
1. Remove oven shelves, wirework runners and
bakeware from oven.
2. If cleaning the top oven, leave the grill deflector in
place.
3. Turn the required oven temperature control to
220°C and allow the oven to run for an hour or so.
THINGS TO NOTE
•
•
•
The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven
has reached the desired temperature and then
go out. It will then turn on and off showing that
the oven temperature is being maintained.
The internal oven light will come on.
The cooling fan for the controls will operate after
a short time when the oven cleaning cycle is
selected. It may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has cooled. See
page 7 for more details on the operation of the
cooling fan
HINTS AND TIPS
•
•
•
Slight discolouration and polishing of the
Stayclean surfaces may occur in time, but this
will not affect their self cleaning properties.
A good time to use the oven cleaning cycle is
after the weekly roast.
If you do a lot of roasting and very little baking
you should follow the cleaning cycle every week.
If you roast very little you will only need to follow
the cleaning cycle every 2 – 3 weeks.
Follow the recommendations below to keep
soilage to a minimum.
COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE.
•
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.
29
•
•
•
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.
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.
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.
REPLACING AN OVEN LIGHT BULB
The type of bulb required is a 300°C, 25 watt small
Edison Screw.
CAUTION:
Disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply before replacing the bulb.
1. Make sure the appliance is cool before you
replace a bulb
2. Open the door and remove the shelves, side
panels and wirework runners.
Instructions on how to remove the wirework
runners and side panels are given on page 28.
3. Pull the glass bulb cover towards you and then
pull it off. If necessary use a screwdriver to
carefully lever off the cover, taking care not to
damage the oven cavity.
4. Unscrew the bulb by turning it to the left.
5. Fit a new bulb and then replace the glass bulb
cover.
6. Refit the side panels, wirework runners and
replace the oven shelves.
7. Restore the appliance to the electricity supply and
reset the time of day.
