User manual WHIRLPOOL AKP 634 WH INSTRUCTION FOR USE

[. . . ] NOTE: To allow for proper ventilation, we recommend that you left an opening of at least 500 x 80 mm or an equivalent area in the lower section of the housing. • An additional opening of 5 mm is required between the oven top rim and the cooktop lower rim: this opening must not be closed by strips or housing crosspieces. During oven installation, care must be taken to ensure that the sides are not touching the front edges of the housing or adjacent drawers and doors (see picture). No contacts 4 53872-gb. fm5 Page 5 Tuesday, February 27, 2001 3:35 PM ELECTRICAL CONNECTION • Warning: Do not connect to the power supply before you have finished connecting the oven. [. . . ] Following cooking times greater than one hour at temperatures of 200° C or more, it is recommended that residual heat from the oven and housing be removed by use of a cool down period. At completion of cooking, leave the oven on, in any cooking function but grill with the “temperature knob” on “0” position, for about 15 minutes. The oven door must remain closed during the cool down period. • During the cooking process, water evaporates from food. All ovens require this steam and other fumes to be vented from the oven cavity. For reasons of safety and aesthetics, we have determined that an opening at the bottom of the door is the optimum solution. Consequently, vapour may be seen to be coming from this area on occasions (see picture). This is a normal occurrence and the bottom trim can be cleaned after removal of the oven door as described later in this chapter “Cleaning the oven and its accessories”. Bear in mind there may be residual steam inside the oven. Accordingly, great care should be taken when opening the oven door. Heavy weights must not be placed on the open door as this may result in damage to the cavity and hinges. Max weight: 7 kg (15lbs). • • • • • • • • • Fum es exh a ust 6 53872-gb. fm5 Page 7 Tuesday, February 27, 2001 3:35 PM OVEN ACCESSORIES • Accessories supplied depend on the model (refer to the Product Description Sheet supplied separately). 1 1 Drip tray The drip tray is designed to collect fat and food particles when it is positioned under the grid; it can also be used as a griddle to cook meat, chicken and fish, with or without vegetables. When using the drip tray under the grid, pour in a little water to avoid fat spatters and smoke. Baking tray 2 For cooking biscuits, meringues and pizzas. Grid 3 The grid can be used to grill food or as a support for baking trays, cake tins and other cooking receptacles. It can be placed on any of the Shelfs in the oven. Catalytic panels (depending on model) 4 The catalytic panels have a microporous coating that absorbs fat spatters. We recommend an automatic cleaning cycle after cooking particulare fatty food. To clean the oven heat it to 200° C when empty and leave it switched on for about an hour. At the end of the cycle and when the oven is cool, use a moist sponge to remove food residues if necessary. Do not use detergent or cleaners - risk of damaging the catalytic enamel coating. Spit (depending on model) 5 Use the spit as indicated in the relevant chapter in the Product Description Sheet supplied separately.
