[. . . ] BUILT-UNDER ELECTRIC DOUBLE OVEN AND GRILL ZUQ 875 INSTRUCTION BOOKLET IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION These warnings are provided in the interests of your safety. Ensure that you understand them all before installing or using the appliance. If you are unsure about any of the information in this book contact the Customer Care Department. Always support the grill pan when it is in the withdrawn or partially withdrawn position. [. . . ] For recipes needing high temperatures e. g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc. , best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first. COOKING TEMPERATURES Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking chart. As a guide reduce temperatures by 20°C - 25°C for your own recipes, using a conventional oven. BATCH BAKING The Fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking. USING THE MAIN OVEN · · Push out and turn the main oven multifunction selector to Fan oven. Push out and turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting. THINGS TO NOTE · · · · · The oven light will illuminate. It may turn ON and OFF during use to show that the setting is being maintained. The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a time. If an automatic programme has been set, the oven fan and light do not come on until cooking begins. 23 TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you until the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at the front so that the stops clear the side supports. To install a shelf, reverse the above steps. Each shelf position has an upper and lower support wire, ensure the shelf is placed between these two support wires. HINTS AND TIPS · Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven on. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards. 7 · 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. 1 · When batch baking one type of food, e. g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time. · 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. · Do not place baking trays directly on the oven base as it interferes with the oven air circulation and can lead to base burning; use the lower shelf position. Do not place cookware and cooking pots with rough bases e. g. cast iron on the oven door as damage to the glass may occur. 24 THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation. It is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pies, quiches and flans. Gratin's, lasagne and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. For best results cook on one level. USING THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN · · Push out and turn the main oven multifunction selector to Conventional Oven. Push out and turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting. THINGS TO NOTE · · · · The oven light will illuminate. It may turn ON and OFF during use to show that the setting is being maintained. [. . . ] Where uninsulated Earth wires are used ensure they are suitably sheathed to leave 10mm bare wire fit into the terminal. 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. [. . . ]
