according to instructions provided by the manufacturer. Incorrect installation
might cause harm and damage which the manufacturer accepts no responsibility.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION FOR THE LICENSED ELECTRICIAN This oven must be
connected to a 220-240V 50Hz power supply. Before carrying out the connection
to the power supply, the voltage rating of the appliance (stamped on the
appliance identification plate) must be checked for correspondence to the
available mains supply voltage, and the mains electric wiring should be
suitable for the oven’s power rating (also indicated on the appliance
identification plate); The switched outlet must be connected to a suitable
earth wiring, in conformity to current safety regulations. This appliance must
be plugged into a 10A switched outlet. It should not be located above the

touch any hot surfaces and must be placed so that its temperature does not
exceed 75°C at any point along its length. After having installed the
appliance, the switched outlet must always be in an accessible position. NOTE:
For connections to the mains power supply, never use adapters, reductions or
multiple power pointsas these may overheat and catch fire. The mains terminal
block is located on the back of the oven and the terminals are accessible by
opening the terminal block cover. Note: The terminal cover should not be
opened when the mains power is still connected to the appliance and never by
an unauthorized person. The electrical safety of this appliance can only be
guaranteed if the oven is correctly and efficiently earthed. The manufacturer
declines all responsibility for damage resulting from an installation which
has not beenearthed correctly. The use of adapters, multiple sockets and/or
extensions, is notallowed.

Installation Instructions
The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of 100°C above the ambient temperature of the room it is located in during periods of use. The power supply to the appliance must be cut off before any adjustments or maintenance work is done on it.
PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION AND USE
Manufactured with best quality parts and materials, this modern, functional
and practical oven will meet your needs in all respects. Make sure to read the
manual to obtain successful results so as not to experience any problems in
the future. The information given below contains rules that are necessary for
correct positioning and service operations. They should be read without fail,
especially by the technician who will position the appliance.
CHOOSING A PLACE FOR THE APPLIANCES
There are several factors to consider when choosing a place for your oven.
Make sure to take into account our recommendations below in order to prevent
any problems and dangerous situations which might arise. When choosing a place
for the oven, attention should be paid to ensure there are no flammable or
combustible materials in the close vicinity, such as curtains, oil, cloth etc.
which quickly catchfire. Furniture surrounding the oven or cooktop must be
made of materials resistant to temperatures of at least 100°C. Required
changes to wall cabinets and exhaust fans above a built-in cooktop as well as
minimum heights from the oven board are shown below. Accordingly, a rangehood
should be at a minimum height of 65 cm from the cooktop. If there is no
rangehood the height should not be less than 70 cm. Refer to therangehood
instructions for specific details before installation. If there is a drawer
below the oven, a protective board must be placed between the oven and drawer.
A cooling fan draws air in from the appliance sides to cool the outer surfaces
and removes excess steam through the front of the oven (above the door). This
fan will continue to operate for some time after the cooking sequence has
finished. Ventilation space must be allowed beside and behind the oven;
failure to do so can cause damage to both the appliance and surrounding
cupboards.
INSTALLATION OF BUILT-IN OVEN
Insert the oven into cabinet partly by pushing it forward. Open the oven door
and insert 2 screws into the holes on the oven frame. While the product frame
touches the wooden surface of the cabinet, tighten the screws. If the oven is
installed below a built-in hob, the distance between the worktop and the top
panel of the oven must be a minimum of 50mm, and the distance between the
worktop and the top of the oven control panel must be a minimum of 25mm. The
front of the oven will remain in front of the cabinet. The dimensions and
material of the cabinet in which the oven will be installed must be correct
and resistant to increases in temperature. In a correct installation, contact
with electrical or insulated parts must be prevented. Insulating parts need to
be fitted in a way to ensure that they cannot be removed by using any kind of
tool. Installing the appliance in the close vicinity of a refrigerator or a
deep-freezer is not recommended as the performance of the above-mentioned
appliances will be negatively affected due to emanating heat. After removing
your oven from its packaging, be sure that the oven is not damaged. If you
suspect any damage tote appliance, do not use it; immediately contact an
authorised Service Centre.

OVEN FUNCTION CONTROL CHART OVEN FUNCTION CONTROLS
Defrost Function: You can start the defrost operation by putting the
frozen food into oven and bringing the function control knob to the indicated
mark. This function will not cook/bake the food; it only helps to defrost it
within a short time. Put the food to be defrosted on the wire rack that you
will place on the centre rack support. To collect the water that accumulates
due to the melting ice, insert an oven tray onto a lower rack. This function
is perfect for finishing off the defrosting process for frozen food that has
been in the refrigerator from the evening before and may not be completely
thawed out.
Conventional Cooking Function: The Conventional function allows heat to
radiate evenly from the lower and upper elements into the oven ensuring even
cooking of both sides of the food. Adjust the function control so it indicates
the conventional Cooking function symbol. Adjust the thermostat control knob
of your oven to a temperature recommended on the cooking table for the cooking
operation you wish to perform. Preheating of the oven for about 10 minutes is
recommended. Place food in a suitable container, then place into oven and cook
for the recommended time. This function is preferred for making cakes
(cupcakes, other cakes and sponges), biscuits, pastry, baked pasta (e.g.
lasagne), casseroles and moist dishes, roasts and oven chips. After cooking,
turn off the oven function and temperature control knobs and set the timer to
off. Take the cooked food out of the oven and place it in a safe heatproof
surface. As the oven will be hot, work near with caution and keep children
away from the cooling oven.
Fan Assist Function: This is the function where the heat coming from the
lower and upper heating elements is circulated into the oven by the fan motor
and blade. Adiust the function control knob so it indicates the Fan Assist
Function symbol and adjust the oven timer to the recommended time for cooking.
Adjust the thermostat control knob to the temperature required on the cooking
table for the Fan Assist Function and preheat oven for 10 minutes. Based on
the conventional function, this combination of features increases the
effectiveness of the thermal radiation of the heating elements through forced
air circulation of the heat throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from
burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate into the food. Food
baked using this function, such as pastry often brown faster than on the
conventional function alone. After cooking, turn off the oven function and
temperature control knobs and set the timer to off. Take the cooked food out
of the oven and place it on a safe heatproof surface. As the oven will be hot,
work near with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Maxi-Grill Function: This function is used for faster grilling and for
grills with a lot of food. Adjust the function control knob so it indicates
the Maxi-Grill function symbol. Set the oven’s thermostat control knob to the
required temperature. After a preheating period of 10 minutes, put your food
into the oven. For grilling, put the food on the rack and sit over the tray.
Place the rack on the highest shelf (4 or 10). Placing the rack above the oven
tray provided will ensure that any marinade, fat or oil dropping from the food
will be collected. When grilling, the oven door must be closed. On this
function, all of the heating elements coils of the grill operate. The higher
grill temperature and function is ideal for cooking and browning meat (such as
lamb or pork chops and cutlets), chicken and seafood (such as fish fillets,
cutlets, tuna steaks or Atlantic salmon). This setting is also good for
browning fruit crumbles or crumb topped dishes. After cooking, turn off the
oven function, temperature control knobs and set the timer to off. Take the
cooked food out of the oven and place it on a safe heatproof surface. As the
oven will be hot, work near with caution and keep children away from the
cooling oven.
Grill with Fan Function: This function will ensure complete, fast and all
over grilling by working the fan and the grill element at the same time.
Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Grill with Fan function
symbol and adjust the oven timer to the recommended time for cooking. Set the
oven’s thermostat control to the required temperature. After a preheating
period of 10 minutes, put your food into the oven. For grilling, put the food
on the rack and sit over the tray. Place the rack on the highest shelf (4 or
10). Placing the rack above the oven tray will ensure that any marinade, fat
or oil dropping from the food will be collected. When grilling, the oven door
must be closed. The Grill with fan function is ideal for cooking food to
achieve a crispy skin (such as chicken thigh or breast with the skin on) and
lightly browning meat such as lamb and seafood. After cooking, turn off the
oven function and temperature control knobs and set the timer to off. Take the
cooked food out of the oven and place it on a safe heatproof surface. As the
oven will be hot, work near with caution and keep children away from the
cooling oven.
Upper Element with Fan Function: This function is good for reheating
small amounts of food or delicate foods by working the fan and the upper
heating element at the same time. Adjust the function control knob so it
indicates the Upper element with Fan function symbol and adjust the oven timer
to the recommended time for cooking. Set the oven’s thermostat control to the
required temperature. After a preheating period of 10 minutes, put your food
into the oven. Put the food on the rack or the tray. Place the grill/tray on a
centre shelf. After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature
control knobs and set the timer to off. Take the cooked food out of the oven
and place it on a safe heatproof surface. As the oven will be hot, work near
with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Maxi-Grill with Fan Function: This function will ensure complete, fast
and all-over grilling by working the fan, the grill and the upper heating
element at the same time. Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the
Maxi-Grill with Fan function symbol and adjust the oven timer to the
recommended time for cooking. Set the oven’s thermostat control to the
required temperature. After a preheating period of 10 minutes, put your food
into the oven. For grilling, put the food on the rack and sit over the tray.
Place the rack on the highest shelf (4 or 10). Placing the rack above the oven
tray will ensure that any marinade, fat or oil dropping from the food will be
collected. When grilling, the oven door must be closed. The Maxi-grill with
fan function is ideal for cooking food to achieve a crispy skin (such as
chicken thigh or breast with the skin on) and lightly browning meat such as
lamb and seafood. After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature
control knobs and set the timer to off. Take the cooked food out of the oven
and place it on a safe heatproof surface. As the oven will be hot, work near
with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Fan Forced Function: This Fan Forced function uses the turbo heater
(located in the back of the oven) to evenly disperse the heat in the oven.
This function is suitable for cooking multiple dishes on various oven shelves.
Adjust the function control knob so it indicates the Fan Forced function
symbol. Adjust the thermostat control knob of your oven to a temperature
recommended on the cooking table for the cooking operation you wish to
perform. Preheating of the oven for about 10 minutes is recommended. Place the
food in a suitable container, then place into oven and cook for the required
time. If you are going to cook using two trays at the same time, while
adjusting the cooking temperature, select the temperature that is the lowest
among the levels suitable for your food of choice. Cooking with two trays
requires additional cooking time compared to cooking with one tray. Usually,
the foodon each tray does not finish at the same time so you may need to take
the tray of cooked food out of the oven, and continue the cooking operation
for the remaining tray. After cooking, turn off the oven function and
temperature control knobs and set the timer to off. Take the cooked food out
of the oven and place it on a safe heatproof surface. As the oven will be hot,
work near with caution and keep children away from the cooling oven.
Lower Element with Fan Function: This Lower Heat with fan function will
cook food in a slower more delicate process than the Fan Forced equivalent and
is recommended for finishing off the cooking of food (in baking dishes or
trays) which is already superficially well-cooked and golden on the top but
still soft inside. This is an ideal function for delicate cooking such as
quiches, cheesecakes and custards where limited top browning of the food is
required. After cooking, turn off the oven function and temperature control
knobs and set the timer to off. Take the cooked food out of the oven and place
it on a safe heatproof surface. As the oven will be hot, work with caution and
keep children away from the cooling oven.
ACCESSORIES
It is recommended that you use the containers indicated depending on the food
you will cook in your oven. You can also use glass containers, cake pans and
special oven trays suitable for use in your oven (available in kitchenware
shops). Pay attention to the information given by the supplier for use of this
cookware. The information given below should be implemented for enameled
containers. If the food to be cooked does not completely cover the oven tray,
if the food is taken out of the deep-freezer or if the tray is used to collect
the dripping juices of the foods during the grill operation, deformation might
be observed on the tray over time due to high temperatures forming during the
cooking/baking operation. This is a normal, physical state that results during
the heat transfer. Do not leave a glass tray or container in a cold
environment immediately after cooking in them. Do not place them on cold and
wet surfaces. Ensure that they slowly cool off by placing them on a dry piece
of cloth or wooden board, otherwise, the glass tray or container might break.
If you are going to use your oven to grill, we recommend using the grill rack
with the tray on the position below. Thisway, splattering and dripping oils
will not make the oven interior dirty. To make cleaning easier, add some water
into this tray. In a grilling operation, use the shelf in an upper position.
WIRE GRIDS AND TRAYS
Each wire grid and tray comes with a built-in safety feature to help minimize
their being accidentally pulled fully out. This comes in the way as a “step”,
positioned partway in from the rear of the wire rack or tray. To fit them into
the oven, push the wire grid or tray part way into the oven until the step
“catches” then angle the part over the step & fully insert. To remove, repeat
the process in reverse.
WARNING: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use.
Children should be kept away. Transportation
Keep the original carton of the product and use this packaging if the item
needs to be transported. Follow the transport signs on the carton. Place paper
between the upper cover and cooking panel, cover the upper cover and tape to
the side surfaces of Overs Tape cardboard or paper onto the inside face of the
glass as it will be susceptible to damage from the trays. Use cardboard covers
for the wire grill and trays in your oven. Also tape the oven’s covers to the
side walls. If the original carton is unavailable, take measures to protect
the external surfaces (glass and painted surfaces) of oven against possible
blows, as well as the above.
Cleaning
NOTE: Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when
the oven is cool. The appliance should be disconnected from the power outlet
or turned off at your isolation switch before commencing any cleaning process.
Cleaning the oven exterior:
Before starting to clean your oven, be sure that all control buttons are off
and your appliance has cooled. Unplug the appliance. Do not use cleaning
materials containing particles that might scratch the enamelled and painted
parts of your oven. Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners, which do not
contain particles. As these cleaners may damage the surfaces, do not use
caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, rough wire wool or hard tools. In
the event of any excess liquids spilling over your oven surface during
cleaning, clean up immediately so as to prevent possible damage to the enamel
or metal surface. Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning the oven.
Cleaning the interior of the oven:
Make sure to unplug the oven before starting to clean it. You will obtain best
results if you clean the oven interior while the oven is slightly warm (the
oven should not be operating). Remove the side wire racks first (if supplied).
Wipe your oven with a soft piece of cloth (e.g. dish cloth) dampened with warm
soapy water after each use, rinse cloth in warm water then wipe oven again and
finish by wiping with a dry cloth. It is also recommended to wipe clean the
oven door and rubber seal. For a complete cleaning process, use dry and powder
type oven cleaners, following the oven cleaning product’s instructions.
Troubleshooting
If the oven does not operate: The oven may be unplugged from the power source or switched off at the power source. The household fuse has blown or household power supply is off.
- The Timer (if available) may not set correctly. If the oven does not heat: The heat may not be set correctly with the oven’s temperature setting. If the interior lighting lamp does not light:
- The lamps are defective. If they are defective, you can change them following the instructions withinthis manual. Cooking (if lower-upper part does not cook equally): Control the shelf locations, cooking period and heat values according to the manual. Unit smoking when first used: This is a result of protective oils being removed and is to be expected with a first use. If you have any further problems with your product, please call your Authorised Service Centre.

Cooking Guides
For optimum cooking keep edges of baking dishes and pans at least 4cm from the
sides of the oven. This allows free heat circulation and ensures even cooking.
Where possible remove large cuts of meat 1kg or over from the fridge 1 hour
prior to cooking. Allow, to stand covered and away from direct sun/heat. This
process will take the “chill” of the fridge away from the food and assist in
more even cooking
Oven Shelf Location
Your Omega oven has four or ten rack positions for the oven shelves to be
positioned depending on your choice of cooking function and size of roasting
dishes or containers. These are numbered from 1 (the lowest shelf position) to
the highest shelf position (4 or 10). See diagram in oven manual.
To obtain maximum space above and below the shelves, it is recommended that
you position trays and dishes in the following way:
- When using only 1 shelf, use a central position/rack.
- When using 2 shelves, space the racks evenly within the oven.
Cooking Pizza
For the best results when cooking pizza use the Fan forced with Lower Heat
Element function. Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes.
- Use a non-stick pizza pan, ideally one with holes in the base specifically for pizza cooking. Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking.
- If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three or four), it is recommended that the mozzarella cheese be placed on top halfway through the cooking process.
- Remember the best pizzas are made with a less is best method when choosing the topping ingredients.
- Check the base is crispy by lifting the pizza pan from the oven with a heatproof glove and lifting the pizza with an oven slide to look at the pizza base. Return to oven if further cooking is required.
Roasting Meat, Cooking Chicken and Fish
- Ideally, meat should be at least 1Kg or more when roasting in order to prevent it from drying out.
- When cooking white meat, poultry and fish, use temperature settings (180°C-220°C).
- For red meat that should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy on the inside, it is a good idea to start with a high temperature setting (200°C-220°C) for a short time, then turn the oven down afterwards and finish off.
- When larger cuts of meat, poultry or fish have finished cooking, ideally remove the food from the oven and cover with foil and stand for 10-20 minutes (depending on size). This will help retain the juices when the meat is carved.
- When cooking large whole fish (1kg or larger) it is recommended that the flesh be scored or slashed 2- 3 times on either side to assist in more even cooking. To do this cut into the thick fish flesh behind the head through to the bone. These scored areas also allow you to check easily to see if the fish is cooked.
- It is a good idea to either measure the inside of your oven for width and either write this down in a book you may have with you when shopping or you can cut a piece of string the oven width, this makes iteasier to know if your fish will fit into the oven.
- Looks can be deceiving and the fish looks so much betterwhole with its head and tail. If it doesn’t fit you will probably need to remove the head prior to baking.
Grilling
Cooking times may vary according to the nature of the foods, their homogeneity
and their volume. When cooking a certain food for the first time, it is
advisable to choose the lowest temperature and then increase temperature as
required.
Cakes and Baking
Organize the oven shelves while the oven is cold and before preparing a
recipe. When baking, follow the directions in the recipe however if in doubt
as a general rule the food (e.g. cake) is positioned on a shelf that will have
the top of the cake surface as near to the centre of the oven as possible.
- Preheat oven before preparing the cake or baked items as some baked food does not like to sit waiting for the oven to reach the required temperature. For best results the baked food should go straight into the preheated oven at the correct temperature.
- Use kitchen baking paper to line cake tins and baking trays for cookies and roast vegetables such as pumpkin.
- When making cakes have eggs at room temperature.
- When making sponge cakes don’t tap the beaters on the side of the bowl when the beating is complete as this will knock out precious air you have just spent time adding. Remove the beaters from the hand mixer and tap them over the edge of your open palm to knock any remaining cake mix into the bowl below.
Pavlova and Meringues
- Eggs should be at room temperature.
- Ensure that the bowl and beaters to be used are super clean and have no grease, oil or fat on them as this will retard the beating and peak forming process.
- It is a good idea to crack the eggs to be used one at a time over a small bowl to separate the eggyolks and whites that way if a yolk does break it will not end up in your main bowl of egg whites.
- When making pavlova or meringues don’t tap the beaters on the side of the bowl when the beating is complete as this will knock out precious air you have just spent time adding. Remove the beaters from the hand mixer and tap them over the edge of your open palm to knock any remaining mix into the bowl below.
- Line baking trays with kitchen baking paper.
- When they are cooked, remove the tray from the oven and use a very flat spatula to loosen the food from the baking paper. Return the Pavlova or meringues to the oven and allow to stand overnight or untilthe oven is cold for best results. Think about using the remaining egg yolks to make homemade mayonnaise.
