Congratulations on the purchase of this quality product.

We trust that you will enjoy many years of trouble free use. Please read these instructions

carefully before using the oven. This manual will provide you with information on how

to operate and care for your product in order that you gain the maximum benefit from it.

Introduction

Unpacking

Cupboard design

• Cooking appliances generate considerable heat. The layout and materials of the mount-

ing cabinet should take account of the characteristics of the oven.

• Surfaces immediately adjacent to the oven should be able to withstand temperatures of

up to 100

°

C without delaminating or discolouring.

• Because the oven vents through the handle, overhanging doors above the oven may be

subjected to heat as well as condensation if very moist foods are being cooked.

This appliance must be earthed and the manufacturer and the seller do not accept

responsibility for any damage due to incorrect installation or electrical connection.

• This appliance should not be connected through an earth leakage system.

Refer to S.A.B.S. 0142.

• Support the oven in front of the aperture and make the electrical connection before in-

stalling. This will ensure enough cable length for subsequent servicing.

Connection to the power supply

The connection must be carried out by a licensed electrician, who will ensure that the

oven is correctly connected and safely earthed. The rated current is printed on the serial

number label attached to the oven side trim.

The appliance must be connected to the mains through a double pole isolating switch

which has a minimum clearance between the contacts of 3 mm. in both poles.

A means for disconnection must be provided in the fixed wiring.

Electrical installation

• Please ensure that packaging material is disposed of in a responsible manner.

• Plastic bags should be cut up to prevent children playing with them and accidentally

suffocating.

• Remove all packing from the oven cavity and position the accessories.

• If the appliance is damaged in any way, do not use it. Report the damage to your

dealer, who will take the necessary corrective action.

Multifunction oven

1 Fan only

( DEFROSTING)

• Set the multi function knob to fan only

. In this mode the fan at the back of the oven

will circulate air at room temperature, substantially reducing the defrosting period re-

quired for frozen food.

2 Conventional oven

• Set the multi function selector to

conventional oven

and the oven thermostat to the re-

quired temperature. The indicator light will glow and remain on until the oven has

reached the selected temperature.

• When the indicator light switches off, the food should be placed in the oven.

• During cooking the indicator light will cycle on and off as the oven thermostat main-

tains the selected temperature.

• After completion, return the multifunction selector and the

oven thermostat to the

OFF

position in an anti clockwise direction.

Baking guide

• Where possible, bake on the middle shelf

p

osition ( 2 ) in the oven.

• Do not use the baking trays as these are exclusively used for

Thermofan baking.

• Place the food halfway between the back of the oven and the door.

• Do not open the oven door until at least two thirds of the baking time has elapsed.

The fan blows ambient air

over the frozen food to

defrost it.

Top heat and bottom bake

elements are used.

Top heat and bottom bake

elements are used in

conjunction with the fan.

The rear bake element is

used in conjunction with

the fan.

The top grill element is

used in conjunction with

the fan.

The top grill element only

is used.

Cooking

• Set the multifunction selector to Thermofan oven and the oven thermostat to the re-

quired temperature.

• The indicator light will glow and remain on until the oven has reached the selected

temperature. When the indicator light switches off, the food should be placed in the

oven. During cooking the indicator light will cycle on and off as the oven thermostat

maintains the selected temperature.

• After completion, return the

multifunction selector

and the

oven thermostat

to the

OFF

position in an anti clockwise direction.

Registered by Defy in 1978, Thermofan cooking differs from conventional cooking

in that it uses the principle of forced convection within the oven. The advantages are:

1. Both trays may be used at the same time.

2. Different dishes can be cooked simultaneously without flavour or aroma transfer.

Hence fish, meat and cakes can be baked at the same time.

3. The oven door may be opened any time for inspection purposes without risking a

flop.

4. By circulating hot air around the food, spit - roast chickens may be done without us-

ing a rotisserie.

5. Cooking is done at slightly lower temperatures, saving electricity and reducing

splatter.

3 Conventional oven (fan assisted)

• Set the multifunction selector to

conventional oven fan assisted

and the oven ther-

mostat to the required temperature. The indicator light will glow and remain on until

the oven has reached the selected temperature.

•

N

o preheating is necessary and the food can be placed in the oven immediately.

• During cooking the indicator light will cycle on and off as the oven thermostat main-

tains the selected temperature.

After completion, return the

multifunction selector

and the

oven thermostat

to the

OFF

p

osition in an anti clockwise direction.

Baking guide

• Cooking / baking is done at slightly lower temperatures than in the conventional mode.

• Baking may be done on two shelves simultaneously. The rec-

ommended shelf positions are 1 and 3.

• Do not use the baking trays as these are exclusively used for

Thermofan baking.

• Place the food halfway between the back of the oven and the

door.

• Do not open the oven door until at least half of the baking time

has elapsed.

Baking guide

•

Thermofan

baking is done with the oven trays in position.

• For small items the entire area of each tray may be utilised. Larger items should be

p

laced towards the front of each tray.

• All ovens extract a certain amount of moisture from the food being cooked. The much

greater capacity of the

Thermofan

oven allows more food to be cooked and thus more

moisture may be released. This is normal and not detrimental to the food or the oven.

• For professional results and perfect browning, open the oven door when half the bak-

ing time has lapsed. Then turn the baking tins around so that the sides previously fac-

ing the back of the oven now face the front.

Caution: Thermofan baking relies on good contact between the bottom of the cake

tin and the oven tray. Do not use spring form baking tins with a raised bottom. The

lack of contact will cause the bottom of the cake to be underdone. These tins may be

used on a wire shelf where no insulating air space is created.

• The oven door must remain closed when turbo grilling.

• Use only a wire shelf when grilling as the intense heat could warp the baking trays.

• Turbo grilling is most suitable for meat as drying out and shrinkage will be reduced.

• Set the multi function knob to

turbo grill

.

• Set the oven thermostat to the

grill position.

• Pre - heat the Grill element for about 5 minutes

• Place the food on the Grid/Roast pan and place this on the

wire shelf near to the grill element.( position 3)

• Monitor the grilling process to avoid burning the food.

• Care must be taken not to touch the grill element while han-

dling food in the oven. Withdraw the shelf to improve access.

• After completion, return the

multifunction selector

and the

oven thermostat

to the

OFF

position in an anti clockwise direction.

• The warming drawer has a variable temperature control. This allows the correct setting

for the application. An indicator light will glow when the drawer has been switched on.

• If food is to be kept warm for a lengthy period it is best to select a lower temperature.

• Food left for too long in the warmer drawer could dry out and spoil. As a precaution

food should always be covered, to minimise the drying effect.

• The drawer can be removed for cleaning purposes. Pull the drawer out to the bump -

stop, then lift the front slightly and continue pulling till the drawer slides free.

• Refit by lifting the rear of the drawer over the bump - stop and then sliding it back.

Ringer timer

• The ringer timer may be used for timing the cooking period. It does not switch off the

oven but gives an audible ring when the selected time period has elapsed.

• Turn the control knob to 60 minutes to wind up the mechanism.

• Return the knob to the desired period.

• When the time has elapsed, the timer will ring for a few seconds.

6 Conventional grilling

• The oven door must remain closed when grilling.

• Use only a wire shelf when grilling as the intense heat could warp the baking tray.

• Set the

multifunction knob

to

conventional grill.

• Set the oven thermostat to the

grill position.

• Operating instructions are otherwise the same as those for turbo grilling mentioned

p

reviously.

Safety advice

• Only use the appliance for preparing food.

• The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without su-

p

ervision.

• Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not leave hot fat or oil unattended. If overheating occurs, these could catch fire.

• Switch off the power at the mains in the event of a fault or when cleaning the oven.

• Do not store flammable items in the oven. If the oven is inadvertently switched on,

these could catch fire.

• Avoid spilling fruit juice, particularly citrus, on the appliance as it could damage the

enamel.

• Always keep the oven door gasket clean as this will enable the door to seal properly.

WARNING In the unlikely event of sustaining accidental damage and cracking, switch

off the appliance at the mains to avoid electric shock and have the panel replaced before

further use.

Plate controls

• Select the heat level by turning the relevant plate control knob to the required setting.

• The higher the number selected, the hotter the temperature of the plate will be.

• The plate indicator light will glow. Shortly thereafter the hot surface indicator light on

the hob will switch on and will remain on for 20 to 30 minutes after the last plate is

switched off.. This is a reminder that the hob surface is still too hot to touch.

Caring for the Ceran hob

• Ceran is a tough, durable material, which provides a beautiful, functional and long last-

ing cooking surface. To keep it looking good, it needs to be treated with care and

cleaned regularly.

• Spillage should be wiped off as soon as possible with a damp cloth, preferably while the

hob is still warm.

• Clean the hob with a nylon pad and ‘Smooth top cleaner’. A sample of this cleaner is

supplied with the unit. Replenishment cleaner is available from all Defy Service Cen-

tres.

• If necessary stubborn spills may be removed using the blade scraper provided.

• Do not use metal scourers or coarse abrasive powders as these could scratch the Ceran.

• Regular cleaning after use will prevent dirt build up and ensure that the hob remains

bright and attractive.

• Wipe the hob surround with a damp hot soapy cloth and dry.

Recommendations ( see also the enclosed ‘CERAN’ leaflet )

• Use only pots with a solid level base. An uneven base will prolong cooking time and

waste energy.

• Use pots with a base diameter slightly larger than that of the thermal area. This will en-

sure even heat distribution and prevent spillage from dripping onto and staining the hot

zone.

• Always cover the pot with a lid. This will conserve energy and minimize spillage.

• Save energy by switching the plate off 5 to 10 minutes before the end of a lengthy cook-

ing period. The Ceran hob will retain sufficient residual heat to complete the cooking

p

rocess.

• A pot with rough edges could scratch the Ceran if it were dragged across the surface of

the hob.

• Any spillage of sugar solution such as jam, must be removed immediately. If allowed to

cool on the Ceran it could pit and damage the surface.

• Do not cover the Ceran with aluminium foil and do not use poor quality aluminium

p

ots. These will leave unsightly deposits which in time, could adhere to the Ceran.

Maintenance

Removing the inner door glass.

• The glass may be removed for cleaning pur-

poses by removing the two screws which hold it

in place.

• It is now possible to clean the inside of the

outer glass if required.

• Wash the glass in hot soapy water, rinse and

dry.

• Re-assemble by carefully locating the rubber

seal in the embossed groove before fitting the

glass. The glass is marked

“THIS SIDE TOWARDS OVEN”.

• Re-fit the two securing screws.

Removing the side racks and shelves

• The side racks and shelves may be removed for

cleaning purposes.

• Remove the bottom bake element guard.

• Slide the shelf out fully against the shelf stop.

• Lift the shelf slightly and slide it out

• The side racks may be removed by pulling the bot-

tom stay slightly downwards thereby dislodging it

from the retainer at the bottom centre. Lift the

racks free of the retaining slots in the oven wall.

Cleaning the oven

• Switch off the electrical power supply before cleaning any part of the appliance.

• Open the oven door and allow the oven to cool down.

• For your convenience, the shelves, bake trays, the element guard and side racks may

be removed to improve access.

• Clean the oven with a damp, hot soapy cloth. Do not use a steam cleaner.

• It may be necessary to soak burnt soils with a liquid cleaner to soften them before

scrubbing them with a nylon brush or scouring sponge.

• Heavy soils on the bottom of the oven may require overnight soaking under a sponge

liberally sprinkled with household ammonia. The soil can then be removed the follow-

ing morning by washing normally.

• Do not use metal objects or steel wool to clean the oven.

• When replacing the element guard, lift the element slightly to allow the hooks of the

guard to slide underneath the element thereby securing it.

General cleaning

• Switch off the electrical power supply before cleaning any part of the appliance.

• Wipe down glass panels, cabinet, door, control knobs, trims and handle with a hot

soapy cloth.

• Use only liquid household cleaners and avoid abrasive powders, scouring pads and

caustic cleaners.

• Rinse and wipe down with a clean cloth.

• Do not use a steam cleaner.

Stainless steel is not adversely affected by normal household use but because of it’s

reputation for durability, it is sometimes assumed to be indestructible, and therefore sub-

j

ected to misuse or even abuse. Care should be taken to avoid such ‘abnormal use’.

Cleaning materials

DO USE

• A soft cloth or synthetic sponge.

• Soap, or a mild household detergent.

• Diluted ammonia in warm water.

• A nylon bristle brush.

• Cleaners labelled “Suitable for stainless steel”.

DO NOT USE

• Acids.

• Coarse abrasive cleaning powders.

• Metallic scourers, steel wool or metal scrapers.

• Wire brushes or emery paper.

• So called ‘silver cleaners’.

• Kitchen scourers/foam pads.

Cleaning procedure

• Frequent cleaning is recommended rather than an occasional aggressive clean.

• Routine cleaning will preserve the corrosion resistance and appearance of the stainless

steel for many years.

• Clean the stainless steel as often as necessary ( i.e. when noticeably dull or dirty ) and

use the simplest cleaning method that will effectively do the job.

• Use clean water, or a mild detergent solution applied with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse

well and wipe dry.

uid ).Follow up by routine

cleaning.

Scratches on the brushed

finish.

For slight scratches, use a

nylon pad loaded with an

iron free abrasive polishing

compound. Follow the direc-

tion of the original texture.

Follow up with routine

cleaning.

For deep scratches use a

coarser abrasive initially and

follow up as for light

scratches.

Deep scratches will be diffi-

cult to remove c ompletely.

Do not use steel wool or

metal scourers unless they

are made from stainless

steel.

It must be appreciated that some of the above suggested procedures will alter the

surface appearance of the treated area.

They should therefore only be applied with due consideration and care.
