Accessories

Anti-tip safety shelf

Food can either be placed on the shelf in a dish or cake tin for cooking or browning, or may be placed directly on the shelf itself.

Multi-purpose baking tray

This tray has a raised edge and can be used for baking pastries (choux buns, meringues, small cakes, flaky pasties, etc).
Joints should not be cooked in this tray

uncovered because fat could spit all over the oven sides.

Grill Tray

With special grid for grilling

The tray can be used for collecting juices when cooking with the grill element by itself or with the oven set to pulsed grill (grill and fan).

GB

It is particularly useful as a large roasting tray for meat and vegetables. Never cook with the grill tray sitting on the bottom of the oven.

Baking tray support

By using this feature, you can pull your baking tray completely out of the oven, knowing it is secure, and easily attend to the dish.

Safety recommendations

Please read these instructions before installing and using your oven. The oven has been designed for domestic use only for cooking food. No asbestos has been used in its construction.

USING FOR THE FIRST TIME:

Before you use your oven for the first time, leave it empty and, with the door closed, turn it on to maximum temperature and let it heat up for 15 minutes. This "runs the oven in". During this time there may be some smell from the mineral wool that insulates the oven and there could be some smoke. This is perfectly normal.

NORMALUSE:

• Always close the door properly. The oven is fitted with a seal designed to work with a closed door.
• Never lean or let anyone sit on the oven door when it is open.
• The oven parts and accessories can become hot when the door is left partially open and the grill on. Always keep children at a safe distance.
• When the oven is on it will get hot. Take care not to touch the heating elements inside the oven.
• Always protect your hands with oven gloves or something similar when removing food, accessories or containers from the oven.
• Do not line your oven with kitchen foil. The metal will increase the heat produced and could ruin the food and damage the enamel.
• Never use a spray or a high-pressure washer to clean the oven.
• During self-cleaning, surfaces can become hotter than in normal use. Children must be kept at a distance.

Child safety

SAFETY MODE

① To activate safety mode: Pull the catch towards you.
(2) To deactivate safety mode: Push the catch back.

USING IN SAFETY MODE

③When the security catch is in use:

open the door and liftthe catch at the same time

When the safety mode is not activated: the door opens normally.

How to install your oven

Electrical connections

• Before connecting your oven, make sure you are using the correct size cable. The cross-section should be the same as the cable connected to the oven. Use a 16-amp fuse.

How to insta

The electrical connections are made before the oven is installed in its housing.

• The oven must be connected using an approved 3-core cable (live, neutral and earth ± 一 ) with 1.5 ~mm square conductors. This should be connected via a 3- pin-socket (live, neutral, and earth ± 一 to the main supply which should be should be a 220 - 240 ~V, alternating single-phase current. If the oven is not connected using a plug and socket, it must be connected to a multi-pole switch with a minimum gap of 3 ~mm between contacts. The earth wire (green and yellow) should be connected to the terminal marked with the earth symbol ± 一 on the appliance and to the earth in the switch.

• Where the oven is connected using a separate plug and socket this must be accessible after the oven has been installed.

• The neutral wire (blue) of the oven must be connected to the neutral in the main supply.

Fitting new wiring and/or changing cables.

• The supply cable (H05 RR-F, H05 RN-F or H05 W-F) must be long enough to allow the oven to rest on the floor in front of its housing.

With the oven sitting on the floor and disconnected:

• Open the trapdoor at the bottom right hand side at the back of the oven by removing the 2 screws and swinging the door away.
• Remove the sheath from each wire in the new cable up to 12mm .
• Twist the ends carefully together.
• Unscrew the terminal screws and remove the wires that need changing.
• Pass the new cable through the wire clamp to the right of the terminals.
• Connect the wires up in accordance with the markings on the terminals.
• Make sure all wires are trapped under the screws.
• The brown wire (live) going to terminal marked L.
• The green and yellow wire (earth) going to the one marked 12 .
• The blue wire (neutral) going to the terminal marked N.
• Tighten the screws and check, by tugging on each wire, that they are firmly connected.
• Tighten the clamp to hold the cable.
• Close the trapdoor using the two screws.

We cannot accept any liability in the event of an accident resulting from non-existent or faulty earthing.

Dimensions for installation use

The oven may be housed either under a work surface or built into a column that is open* or closed with a suitable opening.

Your oven works at its best and produces excellent results when cooking and cleaning itself, if its air circulation is not compromised:

• The oven must be centred in the unit so that there is a minimum distance of 5 mm between it and the surrounding unit.
• The housing unit or its outer surface must be capable of withstanding heat.
• To ensure the oven rests firmly in the housing, screw it to the housing unit using the holes on the side uprights provided (see diagram).

To do this:

1) Remove the rubber stoppers masking the fixing holes.
2) To prevent the housing unit splintering, drill two holes 3mm in diameter in the wall of the housing unit opposite the fixing holes.
3) Attach the oven using the two screws.
4) Conceal the hole using the rubber stoppers. (These also help to cushion the closing of the oven door).

(*) If the housing unit is open at the back, the gap must not be more than 70 mm.

If you are unsure about fitting this oven yourself please use a qualified electrician.

Changing a bulb

• The light bulb is housed in the ceiling of your oven.

Warning! Switch off the power at the main switch before attempting to change the bulb. Leave the oven to cool if necessary.

a) Unscrew the protective shade (see diagram).
b) Unscrew the bulb in the same direction.

The bulb used is a:

-15W
- 220-240 V
- 300^
- E 14 screw-fitting bulb

c) Change the bulb, replace the shade and switch your oven back on at the mains.

It is easier to unscrew the shade and bulb if you wear a rubber glove.

Looking after your oven

Cleaning the inside

Your oven is self-cleaning. The outer shell is lined with removable panels covered in a special microporous enamel known as catalytic enamel. This coating helps eliminate dirt and grease. Splashes are attracted to the tiny holes where they are gradually burnt off. Unfortunately, the coating cannot do the same to sugary substances which is why the bottom of the oven, where these are likely to collect, does not have the same enamel finish.

You are strongly advised,

• Never use wire brushes or any other pointed or cutting implement.
• Never use any scouring material.
• When grilling, a lot of fat can be spat onto the walls of the oven. However, the temperature will not be enough to burn them off completely while you are grilling.

To overcome this problem leave the oven on for 20 to 30 minutes at the highest temperature possible after you have finished cooking. If any trace remains it will be burnt off when you use the oven the next few times.

Changing the catalytic panels

Always allow the oven to cool down before attempting to remove the panels. Check the cooking selector is at OFF.

Side panels (1)

Undo the rail clip (2) at the front by lifting it up (Diagram A). Pull the rail unit toward you, lifting it slightly to unclip the rear catch (Diagram B). Pull it out of the 2 holes (3) of the catalytic panels and the oven casing. Remove the catalytic panel (1). Reverse opera

tions to replace panel and rail unit.

Back panel (4)

Undo and remove the screw (5) at the top of the back panel. Tip the panel towards you so you can remove it

from the oven case. Reverse this operation to replace the panel.

Always check that the oven is off before you clean the inside.

Troubleshooting

If you're not sure that your oven is working properly, it doesn't necessarily mean that there's a problem. In all cases, check the following points:
