How to use your oven

This multi-function oven combines the advantages of traditional conventional ovens with those of the more modern fan assisted models in a single appliance. It is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to choose easily and safely between different cooking modes.
Notice: The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that set the thermostat to the highest setting and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it, with the oven door shut. Then open the oven door and let the room air in. The odor that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage and until it is installed.
Notice: DO NOT place the drip tray provided on the bottom part of the oven cavity for catching grease or spills whilst using the oven. Bottom rack position should be utilized for this when grilling food or when using the rotisserie (only available on certain models). Also do not place aluminium foil to catch any spills either. If either are placed on the enamel base of the oven, damage can occur due to the intense heat created from the bottom heating element. Always place your cookware (dishes, aluminum foil, etc.) on the grid provided with the appliance inserted especially along the oven guides.

Positioning the oven trays & shelves

The Baking Pan or Oven Shelf can be located in any of the four height positions in the oven.
Refer to the ‘Cooking Guide Table’ for the recommended shelf position. When fitting the trays or shelves, ensure they are fitted between the two wires that are closest together as shown below. Oven Shelves have a stop so that they are not fully withdrawn by accident. To fully remove the Oven Shelves, lift the front of the shelf slightly and withdraw fully from the oven. Note that the Drip Tray / Baking pan does not have a stop position and can be fully withdrawn without interruption, so be careful not to accidentally fully withdraw the tray.

Oven functions

Conventional mode
The top and bottom heating elements come on. This is the classic ,traditional type of oven which has been perfected, with exceptional heat distribution and reduced energy consumption. The conventional oven is still unequalled when it comes to cooking dishes made up of several ingredients, e. g. cabbage with ribs, Ancona style stockfish, tender veal strips with rice etc. Excellent results are achieved when preparing veal or beef-based dishes as well (braised meats, stew, goulash, wild game, etc.) which need to cook slowly and require basting or the addition of liquid. It nonetheless remains the best system for baking cakes as well as fruit and cooking using covered casserole dishes for oven baking. When cooking in convection mode, only use one dripping pan or cooking rack at a time, otherwise the heat distribution will be uneven. Using the different rack heights available, you can balance the amount of heat between the top and the bottom of the oven. Select from among the various rack heights based on whether the dish needs more or less heat from the top.

Fan Assist Mode
The top and bottom heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on ,guaranteeing constant heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is especially recommended for cooking prepacked food quickly (as pre-heating is not necessary), such as for example: frozen or pre-cooked food) as well as for a few “home-made” dishes.
The best results when cooking using the “Fan Assist” mode are obtained if you use one cooking only (the second from the bottom), please see the table entitled “Practical Cooking Advice”.

Multi-Cooking Mode
The top circle and bottom heating elements, as well as the fan, will come on alternately. Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 racks can be used at the same time ,following the instructions in the section entitled: “Cooking On More Than One Rack”.
This cooking mode is particularly recommended for dishes requiring a gratin finish or for those requiring considerably prolonged cooking times, such as for example: lasagne, pasta backs, roast chicken and potatoes, etc.. Moreover the excellent heat distribution makes it possible to use lower temperatures when cooking roasts. This results in less loss of juices, meat which is more tender and a decrease in the loss of weight for the roast. The Multi-cooking mode is especially suited for cooking fish, which can be prepared with the addition of a limited amount of condiments, thus maintaining their flavor and appearance. Excellent results can be attained when cooking vegetable-based side dishes. Desserts: this mode is also perfect for baking leavened cakes. Moreover, this mode can also be used to thaw quickly white or red meat and bread by setting the temperature to 80°C. To thaw more delicate foods ,set the thermostat to 60°C or use only the cold air circulation feature by setting the thermostat to 0°C.

Pizza Mode
The bottom and circle heating elements, as well as the fan ,will come on. This combination rapidly heats the oven due to the large amounts of power used by the appliance, which results in the production of considerable heat coming prevalently from the bottom. The pizza mode is ideal for foods requiring high temperaturesto cook, like pizzas and large roasts. Only use one oven tray or rack at a time. However, if more than one is used, these must be switched halfway through the cooking process.

Delicate cooking
The bottom heating element and the fan come on. Suitable for pastries, cakes and non-dry sweets in baking tins or moulds. Excellent results are also obtained in cooking requiring above all heat from the bottom. You are advised to put the pan on a low level.

Grill
The top central heating elements comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking the juices in to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface: beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc.. Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” paragraph.

Fan Assisted Grill
The top central heating elements and the fan come on. This combination of features increases the effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced circulation of the air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Excellent results are achieved with kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausages, ribs lamb chops, chicken in a spicy sause, quail, pork chops, etc. This mode is also ideal for cooking fish steaks, like swordfish, stuffed cuttlefish etc.

Fan Forced
The rear heating element and the fan come on, guaranteeing delicate heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven. This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods-especially cakes that need to rise-and for the preparation of certain tartlets on 3 shelves at the same time. Here are a few examples: cream puffs, sweet and savory biscuits, savory puffs, Swiss rolls and small portions of vegetables au gratin, etc..

“Defrosting” Mode
The fan located on the bottom of the oven makes the air circulate at room temperature around the food. This is recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in particular for delicate types of food which do not require heat, such as for example: ice cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit cakes. By using the fan, the defrosting time is approximately halved .In the case of meat, fish and bread, it is possible to accelerate the process using the “Fan Forced” mode and setting the temperature to 80°C-100°C.

The rotisserie (selected modes only)

The rotisserie (only available on certain models) To start the turnspit, proceed as follows:

• Insert the rotisserie rod “A” into the drive unit and groove “B” into bend “C”;
• Turn the plastiv handle “D” anti clockwise and slide the rack into the oven runners ensuring that the rod “E” slots into the hole “F”;
• The rotisserie rack must always be fitted in the middle of the oven (second position from bottom);
• Press the Oven function selection to select setting

Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, this model is equipped with a cooling fan, which comes on automatically when the oven is hot.
When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel.
Note: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently.

Automatic cutoff
As a safety precaution, the oven will automatically shut down the elements after prolonged use. This feature provides protection for cases where the oven has been left running and forgotten about. The oven light and display will stay on but the oven will stop heating.

Practical Cooking Advice

Practical Cooking Advice
The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the following directions are only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal experience.

Preheating
If the oven must be preheated (this is generally the case when cooking leavened foods), the
“Multi-Cooking” mode and the “Fast Forced” mode can be used to reach the desired temperature as quickly as possible in order to save on energy. Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most appropriate cooking mode can then be selected.

Cooking on More Than One Rack
If you have to cook food using several racks, use either the “Fan forced” mode or the “Multi-Cooking” mode, as these are the only modes that allow you to do so. When cooking delicate food on more than one rack, use the “Fan forced” mode, which allows you to cook on 3 racks at the same time (the 1st 3rd and 5th from the bottom).Some examples are included in the “Practical Cooking Advice” table. When cooking other food on several racks, use the “Multi-Cooking” mode keeping the following suggestions in mind:

• The oven is fitted with 5 racks .During fan assisted cooking, use two of the three central racks; the lowest and highest racks receive the hot air directly and therefore delicate foodstuffs could be burnt on these racks.
• As a general rule, use the 2nd and 4th rack from the bottom ,placing the foodstuffs that require greater heat on the 2nd rack from the bottom. For example, when cooking meat roasts together with other food, place the roast on the 2nd rack from the bottom and the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom.
• When cooking foodstuffs that require differing times and temperatures, set a temperature that is somewhere between the two temperatures required, place the more delicate food on the 4th rack from the bottom and take the food requiring less time out of the oven first .
• Use the dripping pan on the lower rack and the grid on the upper;

Using the “Fan Assist” Mode
Functional, fast and practical for those of you who use pre-packed products (such as for example: frozen or pre-cooked food) along with other food items. You will find useful suggestions in the “Practical Cooking Advice” table.

Using the Grill
This multi-function oven offers you 2 different grilling modes. Use the “grill”mode , placing the food under the center of the grill (situated on the 3rd or 4th rack form the bottom) because only the central part of the top heating element is turned on. Use the bottom rack (1st from the bottom), placing the dripping pan provided to collect any sauce and /or grease and prevent the same from dripping onto the oven bottom. When using this mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Setting “fan assisted grill”, is extremely useful for grilling foods rapidly ,as the distribution of heat makes it possible not only to brown the surface ,but also to cook the bottom part. Moreover, it can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding that gratin finish to pasta bakes, for example. When using this mode, place the grid on the 2nd or 3rd oven rack from the bottom (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and thus smoke from forming ,place a dripping-pan on the 1st rack from the bottom. When using this mode ,we advise you to set the thermostat to 200 °C, as it is the most efficient way to use the grill, which is based on the use of infrared rays. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply by adjusting the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Therefore the best results when using the grill modes are obtained by placing the grid on the lower racks (see cooking table) then, to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the bottom of the oven and smoke from forming, place a dripping-pan on the 1st oven rack from the bottom.

Baking Cakes
When baking cakes ,always place them in a preheated oven .Make sure you wait until the oven has been preheated thoroughly .Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from dropping. In general:

• Pastry is too dry: Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the cooking time .
• Pastry dropped: Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
• Pastry is too dark on top: Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
• Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside: Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
• The Pastry sticks to the pan: Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper.
• I used more than one level (in the function “ventilated oven”) and they are not all at the same cooking point
  Use a lower temperature setting. It is not necessary to remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking Pizza
For best results when cooking pizza ,use the “Pizza Mode” :

• Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes;
• Use a light aluminum pizza pan, placing it on the grid supplied with the oven .If the dripping pan is used,
• this will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust;
• Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking ;
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three of four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process.
• When cooking pizza on two racks, use the 2nd and 4th with a temperature of 220°C and place the pizzas in the oven after having preheated it for at least 10 minutes .

Cooking Fish and Meat
When cooking white meat ,fowl and fish ,use temperature setting from 180°C to 200°C.
For red meat that should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside ,it is a good idea to start with a high temperature setting (200°C-220°C)for a short time, then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the center of the grid and place the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat.
Make sure that the grid is inserted so that it is in the center of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use the low rack heights .For savory roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.

Cooking Guide

NB: cooking times are approximate and may vary according to personal taste. When cooking using the grill or fan assisted grill, the drip tray must always be placed on the 1st oven rack from the bottom.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning your oven, or performing maintenance, disconnect it from the power supply. To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned frequently, keeping in mind that:

• The enameled or stainless steel parts should be washed with luke warm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin them; Stainless steel could get stained. If these stains are difficult to remove, use special products available on the market. After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry.
• The inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned immediately after use ,when it is still warm, with hotwater and soap; The soap should be rinsed away and the interior dried thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive detergents (for example cleaning powders, etc) and abrasive sponges for dishes or acids (such as limescale remover, etc…) as these could damage the enamel. If the grease spots and dirt are particularly tough to remove, use a special product for oven cleaning, following the instructions provided on the packet. Never use a steam cleaner for cleaning inside of oven.
• If you use your oven for an extended period of time ,condensation may form. Dry it using a soft cloth.
• There is a rubber seal surrounding the oven opening which guarantees its perfect functioning. Check the condition of this seal on a regular basis .If necessary, clean it and avoid using abrasive products or objects to do so. Should it become damaged, please contact you’re nearest After-sales Service Center. We recommend you avoid using the oven until it has been repaired.
• Never line the oven bottom with aluminum foil ,as the consequent accumulation of heat could compromise the cooking and even damage the enamel.
• clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or sponges and dry it with a soft cloth. Use only non caustic oven cleaners purchased from hardware stores or supermarkets.

How to Remove The Oven door
For a more thorough clean, you can remove the oven door. Proceed as follows:

• Open the door fully; Lift up and turn the small levers situated on the two hinges;
• Grip the door on the two external sides, shut it slowly but not completely;

Controls
5 function model

Oven & Accessories

The oven is supplied with chrome wire shelf supports, a baking / grill tray and a removable grill insert. There are five shelf positions in the oven.

Attention: The oven comes with a soft close door feature which will only operate correctly when sufficient initial force is applied when closing. Should insufficient force be applied, the door may need to be closed manually.

How to use your oven

This fan forced oven is an extremely versatile appliance that allows you to choose easily and safely between different cooking modes. The various cooking modes are selected by means of a cooking mode selection knob, located on the control panel.

To operate the oven:

• Ensure that manual mode or timer is selected.
• Turn the cooking mode selection knob to the desired cooking mode (explanation of cooking modes).
• Turn the cooking temperature selection knob to the desired temperature (cooking guide is on page 16) or to ‘MAX’ if Grilling.
• The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting, set the cooking mode selection knob to a cooking mode and leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it and the oven door closed. Then, open the oven door and allow the oven to cool. Any odour that may be detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances used to protect the oven during storage.

Note: Place tray on the bottom shelf position of the oven to prevent any spillages from dripping onto the bottom of the oven. Never place anything (including foil and oven trays) on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel. Only place your cookware (dishes, trays, aluminum foil, etc.) on the oven shelves provided with the appliance.

If supplied, use the chrome wire handle shown left when removing the trays from the oven.

Positioning the oven trays & shelves

The Grill Tray or Oven Shelf can be located in any of the five height positions in the oven. Refer to the ‘Cooking Guide Table’ for the recommended shelf position. When fitting the trays or shelves, ensure they are fitted between the two wires that are closest together as shown below.

Oven Shelves have a stop so that they are not fully withdrawn by accident. To fully remove the Oven Shelves, lift the front of the shelf slightly and withdraw fully from the oven. Note that the Grill Tray does not have a stop position and can be fully withdrawn without interruption, so be careful not to accidentally fully withdraw the tray.

Fit Trays and Shelves between bars as shown right.

To remove the Oven Shelf Support, push down on the wire below the top locking pin, pull away from the oven wall until you can release the top of the support from the holes in the oven wall. Replace in reverse procedure.

Chrome Wire Shelf Support

Grill mode
Select ‘Grill’ mode with cooking mode selection knob and turn cooking temperature selection knob to ‘Max’. When set to Grill mode, the top inner element operates. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking the juices in to keep them tender. Grill mode can also be used for dishes that require a high temperature on the surface such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers, etc.
Grill food with the oven door closed.

Fan assisted grill mode
Select ‘Fan Assisted Grill’ mode with cooking mode selection knob and turn cooking temperature selection knob to the desired temperature setting. When set to Fan Assisted Grill mode, the top inner element and the fan operate. This mode increases the circulation of air throughout the oven, which helps prevent food from burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate right into the food. Particularly suitable for kebabs made with meats and vegetables, sausages, ribs, lamb chops, chicken, quail, pork chops, fish steaks, stuffed cuttlefish etc.
In Fan Assisted Grill mode, grill with the oven door closed.

Fan forced mode
When set to ‘Fan Forced’ mode, the fan element and the fan operate providing a delicate heat distributed uniformly throughout the oven.
This mode is ideal for baking and cooking delicate foods on multiple shelves, especially cakes that need to rise such as cream puffs and for certain tartlets, sweet or savoury biscuits, savoury puffs, swiss rolls and small portions of vegetables, etc.

Defrost mode
When set to ‘Defrost’ mode, the fan located at the back of the oven circulates room temperature air around the food. This is recommended for the defrosting of all types of food, but in particular for delicate types of food which do not require heat, for example: ice cream cakes, cream or custard desserts, fruit cakes, etc. By using
‘Defrost’ mode, the defrosting time is approximately halved.

Mechanical timer
The Mechanical Timer automatically controls when the oven turns off. It cannot automatically switch the oven on, only off. To insure tension is kept on the spring, turn the timer knob to 120min setting and then back to the required cooking time.
The timer can be set between 10mins and 120mins.
At the end of the selected time period, the timer will sound and automatically turn off the oven.

To operate the oven manually, set the timer to by turning anti-clockwise from the off (0) position.

NOTE: When the timer is in the 12 o’clock (off) position, the oven will not operate.

The oven light
Set the cooking mode selection knob to the symbol to switch on the oven light. The oven light remains on when the oven is operating.

Cooling ventilation
In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, this model is equipped with a cooling fan, which switches on automatically.
When the cooling fan is on, you will notice a flow of air exiting between the oven door and the control panel.
Note: When cooking is finished, the cooling fan continues to operate until the oven cools down and then switches off automatically.

PRACTICAL COOKING ADVICE
The oven offers a range of settings which allow you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. With time you will learn to make the best use of this versatile cooking appliance and the following directions are only a guideline which may be varied according to your own personal experience.

Preheating
If the oven needs to be preheated, the ‘Fan Forced’ mode should be selected. This is the most efficient mode, which will reach the desired temperature as quickly as possible using the least amount of energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the desired cooking mode can then be selected.

Multi shelf cooking
If you want to cook food on several shelves, select the ‘Fan Forced’ mode as this is the only cooking mode that allows you to do so.
When cooking delicate foods on more than one shelf, use the ‘Fan Forced’ mode. This mode allows you to cook on 3 shelves at the same time. Refer to the ‘Cooking Guide’ table.

Using the grill
This multi-function oven has 2 different grilling modes.

Use the ‘Grill’ mode with the oven door closed, place the food on the centre of the grill pan, insert and fit the grill pan on either the 3rd or 4th shelf from the bottom.
Note: only the central part of the top heating element operates for grilling.

When using ‘Grill’ mode, we recommend you set the thermostat to the highest setting. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply adjust the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Use ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode with the oven door closed. This mode is very useful for grilling foods rapidly, as the distribution of heat by the fan makes it possible not only to brown the surface, but also to cook the bottom of the food. It can also be used for browning foods at the end of the cooking process, such as adding that gratin finish to pasta bakes for example. When using ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode, place the food on the 2nd or 3rd oven shelf from the bottom, then place a dripping-pan on the 1st rack from the bottom to prevent fat and grease from dripping onto the oven floor. We recommend you set the thermostat to 200°C, as it is the most efficient temperature for ‘Fan assisted grill’ mode. However, this does not mean you cannot use lower temperatures, simply adjust the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.

Important: for best results and to save energy, always use the ‘Fan assisted grill’ with the oven door closed.

Baking cakes
When baking cakes ,always place them in a preheated oven. Make sure you wait until the oven has been preheated thoroughly (the indicator light will turn off). To prevent heat loss and the cake from dropping, do not open the oven door during baking.

In general…

if pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the cooking time.
if pastry has dropped
Use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10°C.
if pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower shelf, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
if cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.
if the pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper.
if I used multi shelf cooking and one shelf is more cooked
Use a lower temperature setting next time. It is not necessary to remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking pizza

• For best results when cooking pizza, use the ‘Fan Forced’ mode
• Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes.
• Use a light aluminum pizza pan, placing it on the shelf supplied with the oven. Don’t use the dripping pan since this will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust.
• Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking;
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway through the cooking process.
• For best results, only use one shelf at a time, but it you want to cook on two shelves, use the 2nd and 4th racks from the bottom with a temperature of 220°C and swap them halfway through cooking.

Cooking fish and meat

When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use a temperature setting from 180°C to 200°C.

For red meat that you want well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside, it is best to start with a high temperature setting (200°C-220°C) for a short time, then turn the oven down afterwards.
In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting.

Place the meat on the centre of the shelf and place the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat. Make sure that the shelf is inserted so that it is in the centre of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount of heat from below, use a lower shelf height. For savoury roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat with lard or bacon on the top.

Cooking guide

Note: Cooking times are approximate and may vary according to personal taste. When cooking using the grill or fan assisted grill, the dripping pan must always be placed on the 1st oven shelf from the bottom.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning your oven or performing maintenance, make sure that the cooking mode selection knob is set to ‘OFF’ and the cooking temperature selection knob is set to ‘OFF’. To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned frequently.
The enamelled or stainless steel parts should be washed with lukewarm water without using any abrasive powders or corrosive substances. If any stainless steel has difficult to remove stains, use cleaners specifically recommended to clean stainless steel. After cleaning any surface, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry.

The inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned immediately after use, when it is still warm (but not hot), with warm water and soap. The soap should be rinsed away and the interior dried thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive detergents, scourers acidic cleaners such as lime scale remover, etc. as these could damage the enamel. If stains are particularly tough to remove, use cleaners specifically recommended to clean ovens and follow the instructions provided with the cleaner. Never use a steam cleaner or caustic oven cleaners for cleaning inside the oven.

If you operate your oven for an extended period of time, or if you are cooking dishes that contain a lot of water, condensation may form on the oven door. Dry it using a soft cloth and try reducing the cooking temperature.

There is a seal surrounding the oven opening which is necessary to ensure the correct operation of the oven. Check the condition of this seal on a regular basis. If necessary, clean it but avoid using abrasive products or objects to do so. Should it become damaged, please contact Glen Dimplex Service Department. We recommend you avoid using the oven until it has been repaired.

Never place anything (including foil and oven trays) on the bottom of the oven when it is in operation because this could damage the enamel.

Clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or sponges and dry it with a soft cloth.

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass. Use only non caustic oven cleaners purchased from hardware stores or supermarkets.

How to remove the oven door

• Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

Choosing the right Cookware

Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.

Always lift pans off the ceramic hob-do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.

10

Using your Hob

To start cooking

1. Touch the ON/OFF key, and the power indicator will display.

Note: Each cooking zone is independent of others.
2. Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone that you wish to use. Make sure the bottom of the pan and the surface of the cooking zone are clean and dry.

3. Select the heat setting by turning the “knob” control in a clockwise direction.
• If you don’t choose a heat setting within 1 minute, the Ceramic hob will automatically switch off. You will need to start again at step 1.
• You can modify the heat setting between 1 and 9 level at any time during cooking.

Do not leave the cooking unattended.

When you have finished cooking

1. Turn the cooking zone off by turning “knob” control to”OFF”. The Residual heat indicator will flash.

2. Turn the whole cooktop off by touching the ON/OFF key

The residual heat indicator will flash when the cooking zone is too hot to touch. It will disappear when the surface has cooled down to a safe temperature. It can also be used as an energy saving function if you want to heat further pans, use the hotplate that is still hot.

11

Residual Heat Warning

When the hob has been operating for some time, there will be some residual heat. The indicator “” appears to warn you to keep away from the particular zone.

Auto Shutdown

Safety feature of the hob is auto shut down. This occurs whenever you forget to switch off a cooking zone. The default shutdown times are shown in the table below:

Cooking Guidelines

Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat can ignite spontaneously and this may present a serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

• When food comes to the boil, reduce the power setting.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
• Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through.

Simmering, cooking rice

• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85°C, when bubbles are just rising
  occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and flour thickened sauces below boiling point.
• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.

Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:

1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 ­ 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is ­ the firmer it feels the more ‘well done’ it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender before serving.

13

For stir-frying

1. Choose a ceramic compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately.
