Using the oven
BAKING
• This product is supplied with one chromed oven shelf and an extra large roast pan. If
required, additional shelves, roast pans and broiler may be purchased from any Defy
Service Centre.
• Set the selector knob to the desired baking mode. See descriptions on page 6. Top and
Bottom elements or Bottom element only.
• Set the oven thermostat to the required temperature.
• The thermostat indicator light will glow and remain on until the oven has reached the
selected temperature. The light will then switch off.
• Thereafter place the food in the oven.
• During the baking cycle, the indicator light will switch on and off as the thermostat
maintains the selected temperature.
• After baking is completed, the thermostat and the selector knob must be turned to
the "0"position in an anti clockwise direction.
Note:
• The oven thermostat is marked down to 70°C. When set to this position, the oven may
be used as a warmer.
• All ovens extract moisture from the food being cooked, especially so during the
winter months. This is normal and not detrimental to the food or the oven.
Baking Guide:
• Where possible, bake on the middle shelf position of the oven.
• 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 lapsed.
• The roast pan must not be used for baking purposes
Grilling
• The oven door must remain partially open during grilling.
• Both the wire shelf and roast pan/shelf may be used for grilling.
• The roast pan/shelf may also be used as a drip tray under the wire shelf.
• Position the shelf in the desired position below the grill element.
• Set the selector switch and oven thermostat to their respective Grill positions.
• The thermostat indicator light will glow.
• Preheat the grill element for about 5 minutes.
• Partially withdraw the shelf and place the food in the centre of the shelf.
• Slide the shelf back into position and partially close the door.
• Monitor the grilling to avoid burning the food.
• After grilling is completed, the oven thermostat and the selector switch must be
returned to the "0" position in an anti-clockwise direction.
