Frequently Asked Questions - TBD913SV Tricity Bendix

How do I set the time of day on the oven timer?

Press and hold the Minute Minder and Manual Selector buttons simultaneously. Turn the increase control until the correct 24-hour time is displayed. The AUTO symbol will go out.

What should I do if the oven does not heat up?

First, ensure the appliance is switched on at the wall and the main fuse is working. If the problem persists, switch off at the wall, allow the oven to cool for a couple of hours, then switch on again. If it still fails, contact Service Force.

How can I use the dual grill efficiently?

Select the full grill function for large quantities or the centre section only for smaller portions. Turn the temperature control to the hottest setting (or lower for gentler cooking). Always leave the grill door open during use and preheat for a few minutes before sealing steaks.

Can I use the timer to automatically switch the oven on and off?

Yes. Press the Cooking Hours button to set the duration, then the Stop Time button to set when cooking should end. The oven will automatically start and stop at the programmed times. After cooking, return to manual by pressing the Manual Selector button.

How do I clean the oven door glass?

For the outer glass, open the door, loosen the two top screws, tilt the glass towards you, lift it off the bottom brackets, and clean with hot soapy water. For inner glass, use a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Do not remove the door assembly.

What is the defrost feature and how do I use it?

The Defrost function uses the fan oven to thaw frozen foods gently. Turn the main oven temperature control to the defrost setting. Place food in a single layer and turn halfway through. Use for delicate items like gateaux or small meat portions. Always cook immediately after thawing.

How do I replace the oven light bulb?

Disconnect the appliance from the power supply. Remove the shelves. Use a flat blade screwdriver to prise off the glass cover. Unscrew the old bulb (anti-clockwise) and fit a new 300°C 25W small Edison Screw bulb (part number 572 491 5431-00/1). Replace the glass and restore power.

Why is there condensation on the oven door?

Condensation is normal during cooking. Steam from food hits the cooler outer surfaces. Wipe it away regularly to prevent discolouration. Always stand back when opening the door to release steam.

What are the recommended temperatures for fan oven cooking?

Fan oven cooking generally requires 20-25°C lower temperatures than conventional ovens. Refer to the cooking chart on page 25 for specific foods. For example, biscuits at 180-190°C fan, Victoria sandwich at 160-170°C fan.

How do I lock the oven to prevent accidental use?

Press and hold the Minute Minder and Increase buttons for 3-8 seconds until 'On' appears. Turn the control clockwise to change to 'Of'. The key symbol will display. To unlock, repeat the process turning to 'On'. The key symbol will disappear.

INTRODUCTION

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower 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).

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.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING THE OVENS

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 an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

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.

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, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from 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.

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 runs 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.

Do not switch the appliance off at its power point until the cooling fan has cooled the appliance down.

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS

The light indicates whether the ovens are switched ON. The neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached.

If the neons do not operate as the instructions indicate the controls have been incorrectly set. Return all controls to zero and re-set following the instructions for the required setting.

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:-

1. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you cannot store them straight away. The use of an insulated container when shopping is advisable.
2. 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.
3. In the kitchen keep work tops, 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.

- Select the grill function for full grill

- Select the grill function for centre section only

- Turn the temperature control knob to the right as far as it will go. This is the hottest setting.

- To use the grill at lower settings, turn the temperature control knob so that 120°C or 150°C on the knob lines up with the off dot on the panel.

THINGS TO NOTE

THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING GRILLING.

1. The cooling fan for the controls will operate in conjunction with the grill.
2. The inner grill element may appear to glow slightly brighter than the outer element. This is quite normal.
3. The dual grill operates independently of the oven.

THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE

The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.

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.

Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan.

Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to remove the grill pan handle during grilling.

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

• In order to become acquainted with the performance of the Dual Grill it is advisable to check food regularly when grilling.
• 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.
• Adjust the height of the grilling grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different thicknesses of foods.
• Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air around the food.
• Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats.

• When toasting bread use the cranked shelf in position 2 with the grid in the high position.
• Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or 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 of the dual grill, ensure food is positioned centrally on the grill pan grid in the grill pan.
• 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).

The times quoted above are given as a guide and should be adjusted to suit personal taste.

THE TOP OVEN

USES OF THE TOP OVEN

The top 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. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.

The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.

SELECTING THE TOP OVEN

- Turn the top oven function selector to

- Turn the top oven temperature control to the required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

1. 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.
2. The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a period of time.

TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF

The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the top oven compartment, but a straight shelf from the main oven may be used to provide alternative positions.

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.

HINTS AND TIPS

- 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 on the shelf directly below the element.

Dishes, tins and trays should not be placed directly on oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

- 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 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 25.

- For economy, leave the door open for the shortest possible time, especially when placing food into a pre-heated oven.

THE MAIN FAN OVEN

USES OF THE FAN OVEN

PREHEATING

The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is usually not necessary to preheat the oven. However, without preheating, you may need to add an extra 5–10 minutes to the recommended cooking times. For recipes that require high temperatures, such as bread, pastries, scones, soufflés, etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or 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 25. As a guide, reduce temperatures by about 20°C–25°C for your own recipes that use a conventional oven.

BATCH BAKING

The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, which is especially useful when batch baking.

SELECTING THE FAN OVEN

- Turn the main fan oven temperature control to the required setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

1. 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.
2. The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
3. The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a period of time.
4. The internal oven light will come on.

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.

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.

- 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 baking trays directly on the oven base as it interferes with the oven air circulation and can lead to base burning; use the lower shelf position.

- 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 25.

The roasting temperatures and times given in the chart should be adequate for most joints, but slight adjustments may be required to allow for personal requirements and the shape and texture of the meat. However, lower temperatures and longer cooking times are recommended for less tender cuts or larger joints.

Wrap joints in foil if preferred, for extra browning uncover for the last 20 – 30 min. cooking time.

DEFROST FEATURE

USES OF DEFROST FEATURE

This main oven function defrosts most foods faster than more conventional methods. 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.

It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly in the fridge. However, this process can be accelerated by using the defrost function.

SELECTING DEFROST

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 THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAWING.

• Turn the main fan oven temperature control to the defrost setting.
• The oven fan and internal oven light will come on. • The cooling fan does not operate.

THINGS TO NOTE

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.

HINTS AND TIPS

- Place the frozen food in a single layer where possible and turn it over halfway 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.
• 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.

BEFORE CLEANING ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE APPLIANCE DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF AT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.

CLEANING MATERIALS

Before using any cleaning materials on your appliance, 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 should also be avoided.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE

DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials e.g. Hob Brite, Brillo pads or scourers on painted or printed finishes as damage may occur. Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven doors and cooker sides using a soft cloth and liquid detergent.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY OF THE CONTROL KNOBS FROM THE APPLIANCE 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.

CLEANING INSIDE THE OVENS AND GRILL COMPARTMENT

The vitreous enamel coating in the fan oven / top oven and grill compartment 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.

Aerosol cleaners must not come into contact with the door seal as this may cause damage.

CLEANING THE GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE

All removable parts, except the grill pan handle, can be washed in the dishwasher.

The grill pan, grill pan grid, and oven shelves may be cleaned using a soap-impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot soapy water will make cleaning easier.

CLEANING THE DOOR GLASS

To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels, avoid the use of the following:

• Household detergents and bleaches - Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans - Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads • Chemical oven pads or aerosols - Rust removers - Bath/Sink stain removers

CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS

Under no circumstances should the door assembly be detached from the product for cleaning. Please refer to the cleaning instructions.

The outer door glass is removable for cleaning.

TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS

1. Open the oven door slightly to gain access to the two cross-head screws on the top of the oven door.
2. Loosen the two screws using a Pozidrive screwdriver.

1. Hold the door glass securely with one hand before removing the screws completely with the other hand. The screws and washers retain the trim on the top of the grill/top oven door. Note the position of the trim on the door.
2. Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door glass towards you, lift slightly to disengage the locators from the two bottom brackets. The door will remain in a parked position at an angle of approximately 30 degrees.
3. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water or Hob Brite may be used with care. DO NOT use Hob Brite on the Stainless Steel or painted finishes. DO NOT try to clean the foil which is inside the door. The foil is there to help keep the door cool, if it is damaged it will not work. Ensure that all parts are well rinsed and thoroughly dried before attempting to replace the outer door.

TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS

1. Open the oven door with care and place in the park position at an angle of approximately 30 degrees.

1. Holding the oven glass with both hands, gently place the locators into the holes of the brackets at the bottom of the oven door.
2. Push the top of the oven glass towards the oven door, ensuring the screw location holes line up.
3. Ensure the trim is correctly positioned on the top oven/grill door.
4. Hold the glass in place at the top of the door. Insert the cross head screws into the location holes. Give the screws one turn to ensure the glass is secure.
5. Tighten the screws positively with a Pozidrive screwdriver before closing the oven door.

Do not attempt to use the oven without the glass being in place.

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.

TO CLEAN THE INNER GLASS DOOR PANELS

Clean the inner glass door panels using a soft cloth and hot water to which a little washing up liquid has been added. If the inner panel is heavily soiled, Hob Brite may be used. Do not use abrasive cleaning materials on the door glass. Ensure that all parts are well rinsed and thoroughly dried before attempting to replace the glass.

REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT BULB

The type of bulb required is a 300°C 25 watt small Edison Screw. Part number 572 491 5431-00/1 (Available through your local Service Force Centres).

CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE REPLACING THE BULB.

Open the door and remove the shelves to enable easy access to the oven light assembly. Insert a flat blade screwdriver between the oven side and glass which covers the bulb.

Support the glass with your hand and prise out sufficiently to release the glass cover. Unscrew the bulb in an anti-clockwise direction until it is possible to remove the bulb with ease.

Fit the new bulb by turning in a clockwise direction until it is secure. Ensuring the indent to the flange is pointing to the rear of the oven, replace the glass by pushing it firmly into the hole to cover the bulb assembly.

Replace the shelves. Restore the electricity supply and adjust the time of day and clock as necessary.
