USING YOUR OVEN
Understanding your oven functions
Rapid Heat/AirFry

Bake/Pizza

This function can be either used for a quicker pre-heat of your oven or used to turn your oven into an AirFry for your frying needs. Heat comes from the elements surrounding the fans as well as the smaller element above the food. This will heat up your oven 30% faster.
Selected models are provided with an AirFry. The AirFry enables advanced convection cooking without having to turn the food, giving crispy great tasting results in a shorter time without all the oil. This is suitable for chips, chicken wings, nuggets and similar products.
Food items should be placed onto the mesh tray, spread out evenly and positioned in the middle of the oven. Set the function to AirFry and set the temperature as recommended.

Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The bottom element is a clean heat element and is below the floor of the oven. Both elements are controlled by the thermostat and will turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. You can use the “Bake/Pizza” function for pizza and single trays of biscuits, scones, muffins, cakes, slices, casseroles, baked puddings, roasts and delicate egg dishes.
Base Heat

Fan Forced/Fan Bake

Heat comes from the element below the floor of the oven. The Element is controlled by the thermostat and will turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. The “Base Heat” function can be used to add extra browning to the bases of pizzas, pies and pastries. Cook in the lower half of the oven when you are using only one shelf. For best results, use silver or shiny trays.

Heat comes from the elements surrounding the fans. The fans circulate the hot air around the oven cavity so that you can put your food in different places in the oven and still cook them at the same time. You can use the “Fan Force” function for multi-shelf cooking, reheating cooked foods, pastries and complete oven meals. It will cook at a lower temperature and be faster than baking. Please note that some variation in browning is normal.

Fan Assist (FRVE915SCA model)
Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The fans circulate the hot air around the oven cavity so that you can put the food in different places in the oven and still cook them at the same time. You should only use a maximum of 2 shelves with “Fan Assist”. Do not use the bottom shelf. If two shelves are used, food on the shelf in the higher position will cook first and should then be removed to allow the food on the lower shelf to finish cooking.

USING YOUR OVEN

USING YOUR OVEN (continued)

Pizza

Grill

“Pizza” is a combination of “Base Heat” and “Fan Forced” and offers you the combined benefits of both functions. Heat comes from the elements surrounding the fans as well as the clean heat element below the oven floor.
The “Pizza” function is ideal for foods that require cooking and browning on the base. It is great for foods such as pizzas, quiches, meat pies and fruit pies. Simply place the food in the middle of the oven and set the desired temperature.

The “Grill” directs radiant heat from the powerful upper element onto the food. You can use the “Grill” function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods. Grill with the oven door closed. Preheat your grill for 3 minutes to get the best results. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak, chops etc. for a better flavour.
Maxi Grill/Full Grill

Defrost

The “Defrost” function uses low temperature air that is circulated by the fans. You can defrost (thaw) your food before you cook it. You can also use “Defrost” to raise your yeast dough and to dry fruit, vegetables and herbs.
Fan & Grill

“Maxi Grill/Full Grill” directs radiant heat from 2 powerful upper elements onto the food. You can use the “Maxi Grill/Full Grill” function for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods. Grill with the oven door closed. “Maxi Grill/Full Grill” allows you to take full advantage of the large grill dish area and will cook faster than normal “Grill”. For best results it is recommended to preheat your grill for 3 minutes. This will help seal in the natural juices of steak, chops etc. for a better flavour.
Pyro Clean (FRVEP916SC model only)

“Fan&Grill” offers you the benefits of both “Bake” and traditional “Grill” functions. The grill element turns on and off to maintain the set temperature while the fans circulate the heated air. The oven door remains closed for fan grill. You can use “Fan&Grill” for large cuts of meat to give you a result that is similar to “rotisserie” cooked meat. Put your food on a shelf in the second lowest shelf position. Put the grill dish on the lowest shelf position to catch any spills. When using “Fan&Grill” it is not necessary to turn the food over during the cooking cycle. Set the temperature to 180°C.

The oven has a Pyrolytic self-cleaning function. It cleans by burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt and grease from the oven liner, at high temperature. This process produces ash which can then be wiped out of the oven cavity.
Pyrolytic cleaning will not remove salt and mineral residue left in the cavity well when water evaporates. It is recommended that such residue is cleaned prior to conducting pyrolytic cleaning cycle.

USING YOUR OVEN 13

USING YOUR OVEN (continued)

Cooling/Venting fan

On completion of cooking

Your built-in appliance is fitted with a cooling fan. This prevents your kitchen cabinet from overheating and reduces the condensation inside the oven. It will operate whenever you are using your oven or grill and will blow warm air across the top of the oven door. In some appliances the cooling fan may continue to operate after the appliance is turned off. It will switch off by itself once oven is cool.
Condensation
Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may happen when you are cooking large quantities of food from a cold start. You can minimise condensation by:
· Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking to a minimum.
· Making sure that the oven door is firmly closed.
· Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly smaller than the water container.
· Cooking casseroles with the lid on.
NOTE: If you are using water in cooking, this will turn to steam and may condense outside your appliance. This is not a problem or fault with your oven.
Preheating your oven with rapid heat
To preheat your oven select the “Rapid Heat” function. This function allows your oven to reach the preset temperature quicker than any other cooking function.
1. Turn the function selector to “Rapid Heat”.
2. Set the desired preheat temperature, by rotating your oven temperature selector. When the indicator light above the temperature selector goes out, the oven has reached the desired temperature. Select the oven function you require for cooking or baking and place the food in the oven.
NOTE: FRVE915SCA have Fast Heat Up function. See `Operating FRVE915SCA” chapter.

· The heat source will turn off, the timer will beep and the end time and/or cook time `indicators’ will flash.
· Even though the heating element turns off the oven will still retain substantial heat. This will continue to cook the food until it is removed or the oven cools down. If you do not plan on being present when the oven turns off, you should take this extra heating time into account.
· Turn the function and temperature controls to the off position.
· Press any button to stop the timer beeping.

COOKING TEST

Get to know your new oven with this Simple Test Cake’ Although we strive for a perfect performing oven, it’s possible that there will be some variation in colour when baking. Therefore, we suggest this simple, easy and delicious to make Simple Test Cake, it can help you understand your new oven. All ovens do sometimes have hot or cold spots, therefore it is important to judge with your eye as you may require to rotate during baking. Simple Test Cake’
125g butter, softened to room temperature 1 cup caster sugar 1 teaspoon pure vanilla essence 4 large eggs 2 cups self-raising flour pinch of salt 4 tablespoons (80ml) full-cream milk
Method:
1. Butter base and sides of two 20cm straight-sided round or square cake pans. Then line the base with grease proof or baking paper.

· Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
· Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven with other foods. This will cause food to steam and not brown.
· After the oven is turned off it retains the heat for some time. Use this heat to finish custards or to dry bread.
· Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This will prevent splattering oil on the sides of the oven and the oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave residue which is very difficult to remove.
· For sponges and cakes use aluminium, bright finished or non-stick utensils.
· Remove unnecessary trays or dishes when roasting or baking.
Oven shelf location
Your oven has 5 positions for mounting the shelves or grill dish carrier. These are numbered from 1 (the lowest shelf position) to 5 (the highest shelf position). See diagram.

2. Preheat oven to moderate `180ºC’ (170ºC fan forced)

and ensure oven shelf is in the centre position of oven.

5

3. Cream softened butter and sugar until light in colour.

3
4. Add vanilla essence.

5. Then eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
6. Sift flour and salt into the mixture and beat until well combined.
7. Add milk and beat or stir to combine.
8. Spoon mixture equally between prepared cake pans.
9. Bake in preheated oven, middle shelf for about 25 to 35 minutes or until when tested with a fine cake skewer it comes out clean, or the edges of the cakes have come away slightly from the sides of the cake pans.

2
1
To give maximum space above and below the shelves, load them in this way: · When cooking with 1 shelf, use position 2 or 3. · When cooking with 2 shelves, use position 1 and 3. · When grilling use position 4 or 5. NOTE: Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of food at the same time e.g. 2 trays of scones, small cakes.

10. Remove from oven to wire cake rack and rest for 5 minutes before removing from cake pans. Cool completely.

To Serve: sandwich together with your favourite jam or conserve, and dust top with pure icing sugar.

COOKING GUIDE

· For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes.
· Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
· The grill tray can be used in the oven as a baking dish.
· Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you switch it on.
· Keep edges of trays at least 40mm from the side of the oven. This allows free circulation of heat and ensures even cooking.

COOKING GUIDE

Roasting Meat

1. Place the meat in the oven and set the temperature between 180°C and 200°C. (It is recommended to wrap your meats in an oven roasting bag or foil to prevent fats and oils from splattering, making it easier to clean your oven.)
2. Use the grill (deep) dish and grill insert. Place the meat on the insert.
3. Do not pierce the meat, as this will allow juices to escape.
4. When the meat is cooked, take the roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium foil and leave to stand for about 10 minutes. This will help retain the juices when the meat is carved. The table shows temperatures and cooking times for different kinds of meat. These may vary depending on the thickness or bone content of the meat.

· Enhance the flavours of vegetables, fish, poultry and meat.
· Seal the surface of the food and retain the natural juices.
This table shows how to grill different types of meat:

Beef Lamb
Fish Poultry

Tenderloin, rump, sirloin. Brush with oil or melted butter, especially if the meat is very lean.
Loin chops, short loin chops, chump chops, and forequarter chops. Remove skin or cut at intervals to stop curling. Brush with oil or melted butter.
Brush with oil or melted butter and lemon juice.
Divide into serving pieces. Brush with oil.

Guide to better grilling

Steak Chops Fish

15 ­ 20 minutes 20 ­ 30 minutes 8 ­ 10 minutes

No definite times can be given for grilling because this depends on your own tastes and the size of the food. These times should only be used as a guide and remember to turn the food over halfway through the cooking process.

Roasting poultry and fish
1. Place the poultry or fish in an oven set at a moderate temperature of 180°C.
2. Place a layer of foil over the fish for about three quarters of the cooking time.

For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:
1. Preheat grill for at least 5 minutes.
2. Choose only prime cuts of meat or fish. If the cut is less than 5mm thick it will dry out. If the cut is more than 40mm thick, the outside may burn whilst the inside remains raw.

NOTE: The table shows temperatures and cooking times for different kinds of fish and poultry. These may vary depending on the thickness or bone content of the meat.

3. Do not place aluminium foil under the food as this prevents fats and oils from draining away, which could result in a fire.

4. Baste the food during cooking with butter, olive oil or marinade. Grilled food is better if marinated before cooking.
5. Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface and will let juices escape.
Fan&Grill
The “Fan&Grill” function assists the grilling process by circulating the heat evenly around the food. The recommended temperature setting is 180°C for all fan grilling functions.
1. Place the grill dish on the bottom rack.

WARNING
Always clean the grill/oven dish after every use. Excessive fat build up may cause a fire.

2. Place meat/poultry on an oven shelf above the grill dish.
3. Wipe off any oil or fat which spatters while the oven is still warm.

Grilling is conducted with the oven door closed

CLEANING YOUR PYROLYTIC OVEN

FRVEP916SC
Pyrolytic cleaning of the oven cavity
The oven has the Pyrolytic self-cleaning function, it cleans by burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt and grease from the oven liner, at high temperature. This process produces ash which can then be wiped out of the oven cavity. It is recommended you clean your oven regularly to keep the oven in its best condition.
· Light clean – this is an energy saving cycle that can be used on a regular basis if the oven is lightly soiled. Possibly after every 2nd or 3rd roast.
· Normal clean – use this as the regular cycle about once every 2-3 months.
Before carrying out the Pyrolytic cleaning function
WARNING
· Clean large deposits, spills or grease from the oven cavity.
· Please keep small children at a safe distance. The appliance becomes very hot.
· Never clean/leave non-stick baking trays and tins in the oven during the pyrolytic cycle. High temperatures damage the non-stick coating and poisonous gas is released.
· Pyrolytic cleaning can release fumes that are not harmful to humans, including infants or persons with medical conditions, however you are strongly advised to provide good ventilation during and after each pyrolytic cleaning process.
· Unlike humans, some birds and reptiles can be extremely sensitive to the potential fumes emitted during the pyrolytic cleaning process. It is strongly advised to remove any pets (especially birds) from the vicinity of the appliance during and after each pyrolytic cleaning process.
· Small pets can also be highly sensitive to the localised temperature changes in the vicinity of all pyrolytic ovens when the pyrolytic self cleaning program is in operation.
CAUTION
· All accessories must be removed from the oven, including shelves, trays and side racks.
· During pyrolytic cleaning the air outlet vent above the door must be kept clear of any obstruction (e.g. tea towels).
· Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous items (e.g. cookware).
· To prevent damage, do not use acids, sprays or similar cleaning agents.

IMPORTANT
During the pyrolytic cleaning function, it is advisable not to use a cooktop if it is fitted above the oven. This could cause overheating and damage to both appliances. The cooling fan will operate at an increased speed for Pyrolytic cleaning and will continue to run until the oven has cooled down. It is recommended to use the Pyro clean function regularly to keep the oven in its best condition.
Starting the Pyrolytic cleaning function FRVEP916SC
