Condition the oven (to burn off any residue)
New appliances can have oil or residue left from manufacturing. You will need to heat your oven for 30 minutes before using it for the first time.

  1. Using the oven control knob, set the oven at 180°C for approximately 30 minutes. Later, run the grill on high for 15 minutes with the grill door open.
  2. If your appliance is fitted with solid hotplates, turn the heating setting to high for 3 minutes to fully harden the hotplate coating. Please ensure that the room is well ventilated during this process.image 6

Go!

You’re ready to use your new Westinghouse appliance. A few tips from us:

  • Remember to pre-heat each time.
    For best cooking results pre-heat the oven. Pre-heating allows the oven to reach the required temperature quickly and efficiently as well as cook food at the correct temperature for the entire cook time. Recommended pre-heat time is 30 minutes for baking and 3 minutes for grilling.

  • Choose the right program for the best result:
    SOLID COOKTOP:
    The strong solid-cast cooktop allows wide contact with your cookware for fast, efficient cooking. The cooktop is sealed to prevent spilt liquids from running under the hotplates.
    OVEN: In a fan forced electric oven the heat comes from the rear oven element. Hot air is distributed by a fan behind the rear wall of the compartment, providing an even temperature on all shelf levels – perfect for multi-level cooking or reheating entire meals for your family.
    GRILL: When it comes to cooking tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties and other quick cooking foods, the grill setting will give you the best results. Pre-heating your grill for 3 minutes will help in sealing in the natural juices of the food for better flavour. For separate grill models, grill with the grill door open.

Refer to your full user manual for more details on oven functions.

  • Set your temperature

    • To set the temperature, turn the grill/oven knob in a clockwise direction to the desired setting.
    • An indicator light in the display will turn on and the grill/oven will begin to heat.
    • Once the food is cooked, turn the temperature selector back in an anti-clockwise direction.
      Note: The oven indicator light cycles on and off when the temperature is reached.
  • Set a Timer

    • The 60 minute timer (where fitted) sets a reminder time.
    • When the timer returns to zero, the timer will give a short ring.
      NOTE: For any time below 15 minutes, turn knob past 15 minutes, then back to required time setting.logo
