Before Using the Oven

Because the oven temperature cycles, an oven thermometer placed in the oven cavity may not show the same temperature that is set on the oven.Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.When the oven is first switched on, it may give off an unpleasant smell. This is due to the bonding agent used for the insulating panels within the oven. This is completely normal, if it does occur, you merely have wait for the smell to clear before putting food into the oven.Before using the appliance to prepare food for the first time, you must clean the cooking compartment and accessories.Clean the accessories by hand as is described in the Maintenance instructions.Ventilate the kitchen while the appliance is heating up.Make sure there are no remaining packing materials such as polystyrene pellets in the cooking chamber and remove any adhesive tape from inside or outside the appliance.Wipe the smooth surface of the cooking chamber with a soft, damp cloth before heating the appliance.To get rid of the smell of new products, heat them with the oven door closed when the cooking chamber is empty.Areas near the vent may become hot during operation and may cause burns. Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may distort or melt the plastic.It is normal for steam to be visible when cooking foods with high moisture content.After cooking is finished, if the temperature at the ventilating openings exceeds 70℃, the cooling fan will continue to operate. The fan will not stop until the temperature drops below 60℃. Do not block the vent between the oven door and the controller.Place the cover on the oven burner heater.Before using the oven, be sure to place the cover provided as an accessory on the oven burner heater.If the cover is not installed, foreign matter may block the flame duct, creating a risk of explosion or fire.

Operation Overview

The Oven Rack Positions are numbered from the bottom up.There are rack positions from the lowest position, position 1, to position 4.The appliance is fitted with a flame failure safety device on each burner, which is designed to stop the flow of gas to the burner head in the event of the flame going out.Open the oven door.

Baking

When baking, use the bake burner.When baking in bake burner, use baking tins with a dark metal or coated surface.Always place cake tins in the middle of the tray or wire grill.When baking, you can place two baking tins side by side in the oven. This means that the baking time is only slightly longer.The baking guide contains the temperature settings, baking times and oven rack positions for a selection of typical dishes.Temperatures and baking times should be regarded as reference figures only. The actual values depend on the type of preparation, quality of ingredients and the baking tin in use.We recommend first selecting a lower temperature and then increasing it if necessary, for example if you want a higher degree of browning or the baking time is too long.If you cannot work out the settings for a specific recipe, simply use the settings for the most similar recipe.When baking cakes on baking trays or in tins on more than one rack, the baking time may be extended by 10-15 minutes.Foods with a high liquidity content (e.g. pizza, fruit cakes, etc.) should be baked on a single rack only.With cakes and baked items with different racks of dough, uneven browning may take place initially. In this case, do not alter the temperature setting. The degree of browning will even itself out over the baking process.For energy saving, use the residual heat before you finish cooking.Always count Rack Position from the bottom up.Rack: Rack PositionMenuRackModeTemperature(℃)Bottom burner cooking time (minutes)Top burner cooking time (minutes)Total time (minutes)Frozen pizza319010515Cookies317510515Apple pie2200451055Small cake319025530Sponge cake3150-200201535Results of BakingPossible CauseSolutionThe cake base is too lightWrong oven rack positionUse a dark baking tin or put the cake one rack lower down.Cake collapses(turns lumpy, soggy)Oven temperature too highSet the temperature slightly lower.Baking time too shortSet a longer baking time.

Grilling

Exposed parts of the oven can become hot during grilling. Keep children at a distance.MenuRackModeTemperature(℃)Bottom burner cooking time (minutes)Top burner cooking time (minutes)Total time (minutes)Meatball3-4--20-25-Steak3-4--20-25-Fish3-4--20-25-Sandwich loaf3-4--5-10-Due to the intense heat associated with grilling, it is normal to experience smoke during the cooking process. This smoke is a natural by product of searing and should not cause you to worry. If you are experiencing more smoke than you are comfortable with, use the following tips to reduce the amount of smoke in your oven.The wire grill should always be thoroughly cleaned and at room temperature at the beginning of cooking.ALWAYS run your cooktop ventilation system or vent hood during grilling to help expel smoke from the room.Keep the interior of your oven as clean as possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can burn or catch fire.Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both of these will increase the amount of smoke you experience. If you would like to use a glaze, apply it at the very end of cooking.As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will produce more smoke than leaner items.Adhere to the recommended grill settings and cooking guidelines in the chart on the following page whenever possible.
