When The Oven Is First Installed; Cooking With The Multifunction Oven - Zanussi ZHM 761 Operating Instructions Manual

WHEN THE OVEN IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the oven has been installed:
a) set the thermostat knob to MAX;
b) switch the oven function control knob to
conventional cooking (
c) allow the oven to run empty for approximately
45 minutes;
d) open a window for ventilation.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of
manufacturing.
Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool
down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked
in warm soapy water.
Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the shelf
and the dripping pan.

element only) or (bottom heating element only).
THE FAN OVEN ( )
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant
symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the
required temperature. The fan behind the back panel
circulates heated air into the oven.
If you need to cook more than one dish in the fan oven
at the same time, place the shelves on the first and third
position from the bottom. If you are cooking only one
dish in the fan oven, use the lower positions, as this will
give you better results.

DEFROSTING
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant
symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the OFF
position (symbol : ). The oven fan operates without
heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside
the oven.
• The temperatures inside the oven can reach 250 C.
Always ensure that you are using oven proof baking
trays, oven dishes, etc.
• Do not place pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil
directly on the base of the oven. This could cause a
heat build-up which could affect the performance of
the oven and damage the oven enamel.
• Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil, since
these types of foodstuff can result in a fire, if over-
heated. For the same reason, be careful when
placing or removing food in the oven, not to let any
fat or oil fall on the oven base. If this happens,
carefully clean the oven to avoid unpleasant smells
or smoke.
