[. . . ] OPERATING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS MODEL NO. E 710 27 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION These warnings are provided in the interests of your safety. Ensure that you understand them all before installing or using the cooker. If you are unsure about any of the meanings of these warnings contact the Customer Care Department. The address is on the back page of this book. INSTALLATION l The cooker must be installed according to the instructions supplied. [. . . ] The fan oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature. It will cycle 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. 22 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. Back of the oven Straight Rods Frame HINTS AND TIPS Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven on. Shelves are numbered 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 24. 23 FAN OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by a further 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements. Note: Shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven.

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 30 - 60 min. cooking time. 25 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. This function DOES NOT temperature setting on the temperature control. THINGS TO NOTE The oven fan and internal oven light will operate. [. . . ] Clamp bare wires into the relevant terminal and check they are held by tugging each one in turn. Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of the outer insulation is inside the terminal block and that the wires are not taught but not so slack as to cause any fouling. Connect the remaining end of the mains cable to the cooker point / junction box Place fuse / miniature circuit breaker in circuit and switch on at mains. 46 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CHECKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Confirm the cooker is correctly connected by switching on and observing the various oven functions indicators.
