Frequently Asked Questions - TOF600SS Cookology

How do I use the oven for the first time?

Before first use, remove all stickers and packaging. Clean the cavity and accessories with soapy water. Then heat the empty oven at 250°C for 1 hour to remove any new appliance smell. Keep the kitchen ventilated.

What heating modes are available and what are they used for?

The oven has five modes: Lamp (light only), Defrost (gently defrost frozen food), Grill (grilling small amounts), Grill+Fan (even grilling and roasting on multiple levels), and Convection (fan-assisted baking and roasting on multiple levels).

Can I use aluminum foil in the oven?

Aluminum foil can be used, but it must not touch the door glass to avoid permanent discoloration. Do not cover the cavity floor with foil, as heat accumulation can damage the enamel.

How do I set the timer and turn on the oven?

Turn the time-control knob clockwise to set a cooking time up to 2 hours. The oven starts immediately. For continuous operation, turn the knob anti-clockwise to 'Stay On'. The timer knob will rotate back and a bell will sound when the time is up.

Why does the fan stop during 'Fan Heating' mode?

The fan in 'Fan Heating' mode does not run continuously. It operates only at certain times to ensure the best possible heat distribution and performance. This is normal.

How do I clean the oven?

Clean the exterior with hot soapy water and a soft cloth. For the interior, use hot soapy water; avoid harsh abrasives and steam cleaners. The door panels can be removed for thorough cleaning. Always dry surfaces after cleaning.

How do I remove and refit the oven door?

Open the door fully, fold up the locking levers on both hinges, then close the door slightly until it stops. Grip both sides and lift the door off. To refit, align hinges with slots, push in, open fully, and close the locking levers.

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

First, check the circuit breaker and power supply. If other appliances work, there may be a faulty fuse. If the knobs are loose, press them back into place. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How do I replace the interior lamp?

Disconnect the oven from the power supply. Allow it to cool. Place a towel inside to protect the cavity. Turn the glass cover counterclockwise, pull out the old halogen lamp (25W, 230V) without twisting, insert the new lamp ensuring pins are correct, and screw the cover back on. Use a dry cloth to handle the lamp.

Can I use the oven for defrosting large items?

Yes, use the Defrost mode. For large items, you can remove the side racks and place the container directly on the cavity floor for better results.

The individual controls are adapted to the various functions of your appliance. You can set your appliance simply and directly. There is no constraint on the order of operating the knobs, giving you full freedom while using the appliance.

→ "Operate Your Appliance" on page 11

Your appliance has various operating modes that make it easier to use.

To help you find the correct type of heating for your dish, we have explained the differences and applications here.

The symbols for each type help you remember them.

Types of heating

Heating Mode		Temperature Use
	Lamp /		For lightening the cavity without any heating element switch on.
	Defrost For gently defrosting frozen food.
	Grill	50°C~250°C	For grilling small amounts of steaks or sausages.The center area under the heating heating element becomes hot
	Grill + Fan	50°C~250°C	For baking and roasting on one or more levels.(But no more than 3)The fan distributes heat from heating elements evenly around the cavity.
	Convection	50°C~250°C	For baking and roasting on one or more levels. Heat comes from the ring heater surrounding the fan evenly.

Notes

1. To defrost large portions of food, you can remove the side racks and place the container on the cavity floor.
2. To warm tableware, it is beneficial to remove the side racks. The heating modes "Hot Air Grilling" and "Fan Heating" with a temperature setting of 50°C are useful. "Hot Air Grilling" should be used if more than half of the cavity floor is covered by the tableware.
3. Due to optimal even heat distribution inside the cavity during "Fan Heating", the fan will operate at certain times during the heating process to guarantee the best possible performance.

Caution

1. If you open the appliance door during an ongoing operation, the operation will not pause. Please be especially careful of the risk of burns.
2. Do not cover the ventilation slots. Otherwise, the appliance may overheat. To make the appliance cool down more quickly after the operation, the cooling fan may continue to run for a period afterwards.

Lighting

When you switch the appliance on to any mode, the lamp will be always on until the operation has finished. You can use the main mode: "Lamp" during different operations, i.e. cleaning, preparing the cooking process, pause heating modes during opening the door.

Cooling fan

The cooling fan switches on and off as required. The hot air escapes above the door.

ACCESSORIES

Your appliance is accompanied by a range of accessories. Here, you can find an overview of the accessories included and information on how to use them correctly.

Accessories included

Your appliance is equipped with the following accessories:

Wire Rack Baking Tray

For ovenware, cake tins and ovenproof dishes. For roasts and grilled food

For tray bakes and small baked products.

You can use the tray to place liquid or cooking food with juice.

Only use original accessories. They are specially adapted for your appliance.

You can buy accessories from the after-sales service, from specialist retailers or online.

Note

The accessories may deform when they become hot. This does not affect their function. Once they have cooled down again, they regain their original shape.

Inserting accessories

The cavity has five shelf positions. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom up. The accessories can be pulled out approximately halfway without tipping.

Notes

1. Ensure that you always insert the accessories into the cavity the right way round.
2. Always insert the accessories fully into the cavity so that they do not touch the appliance door.

Locking function

Accessories can be pulled out approximately halfway until they lock in place. The locking function prevents accessories from tilting due to the weight of the food and the accessories themselves while they are being pulled out. Accessories should be inserted into the cavity correctly for the tilt protection. When inserting the wire rack, ensure the wire rack is facing the right direction as shown in pictures 1 and 3.

When inserting the baking tray, ensure the baking tray is facing the right direction as shown in pictures 1 and 4.

Selecting Modes

The default operating mode is switching off. If you would like to select a cooking operating mode, you can do so using the left mode-control knob. There is a pointer on the knob; turn this knob to make the pointer point to the mode you would like to choose.

Temperature Setting

If you would like to select a temperature for cooking, the way to operate is similar to the way to select the operating mode. You can do so using the right temperature-control knob. There is a pointer on the knob; turn this knob to make the pointer point to the temperature you would like to choose.

Switching On

As you have now finished setting the operating mode and temperature, if you would like to turn the appliance on, you can do so using the time-control knob. There is a pointer on the knob; turn this knob to make the pointer point to the cooking time you would like to choose. The maximum cooking time is 2 hours.

Note

For this appliance, finishing the setting of cooking time means the appliance starts operating.

From the second you turn the knob away from the original position, the appliance will start to work.

If you turn the time-control knob anti-clockwise, the gear that the knob will arrive at is STAY ON, which means the oven will work continuously without timer controlling. Only use this when the appliance is well supervised by a person responsible for safety who is well aware of how to use the appliance safely and has understood the associated hazards.

After the appliance starts to operate, the time-control knob will slightly and continuously turn anti-clockwise (except in STAY ON mode). When the cooking has finished, the pointer will turn back to the original position and you will hear a clear tinkle of a bell to notify you.

Indicator

While the appliance starts to cook food or drink, the indicator will be switched on to notify you. During the period of cooking, the indicator will be on and off intermittently. This depends on whether the heating elements are working or not.

Changing

During the period of appliance operation, knobs on the control panel can be turned again to meet your needs or to make changes.

Turning the mode-control knob from the present mode to another one while the appliance is operating means to get the mode changed while food is being cooked. By this time, if you turn the knob to LAMP or DEFROST, the heating elements will be switched off. If you turn the knob back to the original position, the appliance will be switched off but the timer will still count.

Turning the temperature-control knob from its current setting to another while the appliance is operating changes the cooking temperature while food is being cooked. If you turn the knob back to the original position, the heating elements will be switched off. The lamp and timer will remain on, and whether the cooking fan operates depends on the temperature inside the appliance.

Turning the time-control knob from its current setting to another while the appliance is operating changes the remaining cooking time while food is being cooked. If you turn the knob back to the original position, the appliance is officially switched off. The indicator light will also switch off to notify you of this.

Caution!

After the appliance is switched off, it becomes very hot, especially inside the cavity. Never touch the interior surfaces of the appliance or the heating elements. Use oven gloves to remove accessories or ovenware from the cavity, and allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children at a safe distance to avoid the risk of burns.

Note

Changing modes, temperature, or remaining cooking time may have negative effects on the cooking result. We strongly recommend that you do not do so unless you are very experienced in cooking.

ENERGY EFFICIENT USE

1. Remove all accessories that are not necessary during the cooking and baking process.
2. Do not open the door during the cooking and baking process.
3. If you open the door during cooking or baking, switch the mode to "Lamp" (without changing the temperature setting).
4. Decrease the temperature setting in non-fan-assisted modes to 50°C 5 to 10 minutes before the end of the cooking and baking time. This allows you to use the cavity heat to complete the process.
5. Use "Fan Heating" whenever possible. You can reduce the temperature by 20°C to 30°C.
6. You can cook and bake using "Fan Heating" on more than one level at the same time.
7. If it is not possible to cook and bake different dishes at the same time, you can heat them one after the other to use the preheat status of the oven.
8. Do not preheat the empty oven if it is not required. If necessary, put the food into the oven immediately after reaching the temperature indicated by the indicator light switching off the first time.
9. Do not use reflective foil, like aluminum foil, to cover the cavity floor.
10. Use the timer and/or a temperature probe whenever possible.
11. Use dark, matte finish and lightweight baking molds and containers. Try not to use heavy accessories with shiny surfaces, such as stainless steel or aluminum.

ENVIRONMENT

The packaging is designed to protect your new appliance against damage during transport. The materials used are carefully selected and should be recycled. Recycling reduces the use of raw materials and waste. Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. Please do not dispose of it with your household waste.

HEALTH

Acrylamide occurs mainly by heating starchy food (i.e., potatoes, French fries, bread) to very high temperatures over long times.

Tips

1. Use short cooking times.
2. Cook food to a golden yellow surface color, do not burn it to dark brown colors.
3. Bigger portions have less acrylamide.
4. Use "Fan Heating" mode if possible.
5. French fries: Use more than 450g per tray, place them evenly spread and turn them from time to time. Use the product information if available to get the best cooking result.

Notes

1. Slight differences in color on the front of the appliance are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
2. Shadows on the door panels, which look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by the interior lighting.
3. Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can cause some slight color variation. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enameled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This does not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
4. Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not build up.

Tips

1. Clean the cooking compartment after each use. This will ensure that dirt cannot be baked on.
2. Always remove flecks of lime scale, grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately.
3. Remove flecks of food with sugar content immediately, if possible, when the fleck is still warm.
4. Use suitable ovenware for roasting, e.g. a roasting dish.

APPLIANCE DOOR

With good care and cleaning, your appliance will retain its appearance and remain fully functional for a long time to come. This will tell you how to remove the appliance door and clean it.

For cleaning purposes and to remove the door panels, you can detach the appliance door. The appliance door hinges each have a locking lever.

When the locking levers are closed, the appliance door is secured in place. It cannot be detached. When the locking levers are open in order to detach the appliance door, the hinges are locked. They cannot snap shut.

Warning - Risk of injury!

1. If the hinges are not locked, they can snap shut with great force. Ensure that the locking levers are always fully closed or, when detaching the appliance door, fully open.
2. The hinges on the appliance door move when opening and closing the door, and you may be trapped. Keep your hands away from the hinges.

Removing the appliance door

1. Open the appliance door fully.
2. Fold open the two locking levers on the left and right.
3. Close the appliance door as far as the limit stop.
4. With both hands, grip the door on the left- and right-hand side, and pull it out upwards.

Fitting the appliance door

Reattach the appliance door in the opposite sequence to removal.

1. When attaching the appliance door, ensure that both hinges are placed right onto the installing holes of the front panel of the cavity.

Ensure that the hinges are inserted into the correct position. You must be able to insert them easily and without resistance. If you can feel any resistance, check that the hinges are inserted into the holes right.

1. Open the appliance door fully. While opening the appliance door, you can make another check if the hinges are onto the right position. If you make the fitting wrong, you will not be able to make the appliance door fully opened.

Fold both locking levers closed again.

1. Close the cooking compartment door. By the same time, we warmly recommend you to check one more time, if the door is onto the right position and if the ventilation slots are not half-sealed.

Removing the door cover

The plastic inlay in the door cover may become discolored. To carry out thorough cleaning, you can remove the cover.

Remove the appliance door as instructed above.

1. Press on the right and left sides of the cover.
2. Remove the cover.
3. After removing the door cover, the remaining parts of the appliance door can be easily taken off so that you can proceed with cleaning. When the cleaning of the appliance door is finished, put the cover back in place and press on it until it clicks audibly into place.
4. Refit the appliance door and close it.

Caution!

While the appliance door is well installed, the door cover can also be taken off at this time.

1. Removing the door cover means setting the inner glass of the appliance door free; the glass can be easily moved and cause damage or injury.
2. Removing the door cover and inner glass reduces the overall weight of the appliance door. The hinges can then be moved more easily when closing the door, and you may become trapped. Keep your hands away from the hinges.

Because of the two points above, we strongly recommend that you do not remove the door cover unless the appliance door has been removed. Damage caused by incorrect operation is not covered under warranty.

CURE YOUR APPLIANCE WHEN NEEDED

If a fault occurs, before calling the after-sales service, please ensure that it is not due to incorrect operation. Refer to the fault table and attempt to correct the fault yourself. You can often easily rectify technical faults on the appliance yourself.

TIPS AND TRICKS

You want to cook your own recipe	Try to use settings of similar recipes first and optimize the cooking process due to the result.
Is the cake baked ready?	Put a wooden stick inside the cake about 10 minutes before the given baking time is reached. If there is no raw dough at the stick after pulling out, the cake is ready.
The cake loses massive volume during cooling down after baking	Try to lower the temperature setting by 10°C and double check the food preparing instructions regarding the mechanical handling of the dough.
The height of the cake is in the middle much higher than at the outer ring	Do not grease the outer ring of the spring form
The cake is too brown at the top	Use a lower shelf level and or use a lower set temperature (this may lead to a longer cooking time)
The cake is too dry	Use a 10°C higher set temperature (this may lead to a shorter cooking time)
The food is good looking but the humidity inside is too high	Use a 10°C lower set temperature (this may lead to a longer cooking time) and double check the recipe
The browning is uneven	Use a 10°C lower set temperature (this may lead to a longer cooking time). Use the “Top & Bottom Heating” mode on one level.
The cake is less browned on the bottom	Choose a level down
Baking on more than one level at the same time: One shelf is darker than the other.	Use a fan assisted mode for baking at more than one level and take out the trays individually when ready. It is not necessary that all trays are ready at the same time.
Condensing water during baking	Steam is part of baking and cooking and moves normally out of the oven together with the cooling air flow. This steam may condensate at different surfaces at the oven or near to the oven and build water droplets. This is a physical process and cannot be avoid completely.
Which kind of baking ware can be used?	Every heat resistant baking ware can be used. It is recommended not to use aluminum in direct contact with food, especially when it is sour.Please ensure a good fitting between container and lid.
How to use the grill function?	Preheat the oven for 5 minutes and place the food in the level given by this manual.Close the oven door when you use any grilling mode. Do not use the oven when the door is open, except for load / remove / check the food.
How to keep clean the oven during grilling ?	Use the tray filled with 2 liter of water in at level 1. Nearly all fluids drip down from the food placed on the rack will captured by the tray.
The heating element in all grilling modes are switching on and off over the time.	It is a normal operation and depends on the temperature setting.
How to calculate the oven settings, when the weight of a roast is not given by a recipe?	Choose the settings next to the roast weight and change the time slightly.Use a meat probe if possible to detect the temperature inside the meat.Place the head of the meat probe carefully in the meat, due to the manufacturer instructions.Make sure, that the head of the probe is placed in the middle of the biggest part of the meat, but not in the near of a bone or hole.
What happens if a fluid is poured to a food in the oven during the baking or cooking process?	The fluid will boil and steam will arise as a normal physical process.Please be careful, because the steam is hot. See also “Condensing water during baking” for more information. If the fluid contains alcohol, the boiling process will be quicker and can lead to flames in the cavity. Make sure, that the oven door is closed during such kind of processes. Please control the baking or cooking process carefully. Open the door very gentle and only if necessary.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY ACCORDING TO EN 60350-1

Please note the following information:

1. The measurement is carried out in the "ECO" mode to determine the data regarding the forced air mode and the label-class
2. The measurement is carried out in the "Top & Bottom Heating" mode to determine the data regarding the conventional mode.
3. During the measurement, only the necessary accessory is in the cavity. All other parts have to be removed.
4. The oven is installed as described in the installation guide and placed in the middle of the cabinet.
5. It is necessary for the measurement to close the door like in the household, even when the cable disturbs the sealing function of the gasket during the measurement. To make sure that there are no negative effects regarding the disturbed sealing due to the energy data, it is necessary to close the door carefully during the measurement. It may be required to use a tool to guarantee the sealing of the gasket like in the household, where no cable disturbs the sealing function.
6. The determination of the cavity volume is carried out for the usage "Defrost" as described on page 14. To ensure an efficient use of the oven, all accessories including side-racks are removed.
