The Cooking Modes in your Oven  
Your new cooker is equipped with a number of different cooking modes:  
Conventional Heating (Top Oven)  
- with upper and lower heat. This system is particularly suitable for  
roasting and baking on one shelf only.  
Variable Grilling (Top Oven)  
- the oven can also be used for conventional grilling with a full or  
half width fully controllable grill.  
Note: The Top Oven door should be open when grilling.  
Fan Oven (Main Oven)  
- the fan oven operates by constantly blowing heated air, from an  
element wrapped around the fan, into the oven. This gives improved  
efficiency and in general, enables the use of lower temperatures  
for cooking. It also means that there is less need to be particular  
about shelf positions and that you can bake at more than one level  
simultaneously (Batch Baking).  
Traditional (Main Oven)  
- the upper and rear heating elements are switched on in this  
position. The traditional oven brings an outstanding level of  
temperature distribution and reduced consumption. In traditional  
cooking use only one rack to ensure good heat distribution. By using  
the various shelf positions available you can balance the quantity of  
heat between the upper and lower part. If cooking requires more  
heat from below or above, use the lower or higher shelves respectively.  
Roast Meat (Main Oven)  
- specially created for cooking joints of meat. This mode raises the  
temperature in the oven to a very high heat for the first part of the  
cooking cycle, to seal the outside of the joint and retain the juices  
of the meat throughout cooking. After this the temperature is  
reduced to the set temperature using each heating element in turn  
to guarantee a homogeneous temperature for the cooking period. A  
temperature is suggested on this mode but this can be altered  
using the '+/-' control knob.  
Roast Chicken (Main Oven)  
- specially created for cooking excellent roast poultry. This mode  
can be used to roast chickens, duck, turkey and other poultry to  
perfection. Each heating element is used in the cycle to guarantee a  
homogeneous temperature within the oven. A temperature is  
suggested on this mode but this can be altered using the '+/-'  
control knob.

The Cooking Modes in your Oven  
continued...  
Fish (Main Oven)  
- this mode provides gently pulsing top and rear heat to lightly  
poach fish dishes without overcooking or drying out. A temperature  
is suggested on this mode but this can be altered using the '+/-'  
control knob.  
Rising (Main Oven) - Models DE89 / DQ89 only.  
- this mode heats and holds the oven at 40˚C. It is ideal for proving  
bread and yeast based dough mixtures. When this mode is selected  
a cooking duration of 14 minutes is automatically set, this can be  
altered by pressing the 'time/mode' button until the cooking  
duration icon flashes. Then use the '+/-' control knob to adjust the  
cooking duration.  
Bread cycle - Auto  
- this mode is fully automatic and lasts for 1 hour. When this mode  
is selected the time and temperature cannot be adjusted.  
It is suitable for baking bread weighing up to 1.5kg, either in a tin or  
on a baking tray.  
This mode includes a proving cycle and a baking cycle. If an initial  
proving cycle is needed this can be done using the RISE mode (8).  
Some recipe ideas are included in the recipe book supplied with the  
cooker.  
Cake cycle - Auto  
- this mode is fully automatic and lasts for 1 hour. When this mode  
is selected the time and temperature cannot be adjusted.  
it is suitable for baking sponge based cakes that take between 30  
minutes and 1 hour to cook.  
Some recipe ideas are included in the recipe book supplied with the  
cooker.  
Lower Temperature (Main Oven) - Model AHP67 only.  
65˚  
- this mode heats and holds the oven at 65˚C. It is ideal for proving  
bread and yeast based dough mixtures. It also can be used for  
warming plates and for keeping food warm that has already been  
cooked. When this mode is selected a cooking duration of 14  
minutes is automatically set, this can be altered by pressing the  
'time/mode' button until the cooking duration icon flashes. Then  
use the '+/-' control knob to adjust the cooking duration.

Electronic Clock &  
Automatic Cooking Feature  
When you first switch on the appliance you will be prompted to set the ‘Time of Day’ on  
the display. You must ensure you have done this before attempting to use the  
automatic cooking feature.  
The main oven can be controlled automatically.  
AUTOMATIC COOKING  
- Select food which will require the same cooking time and temperature.  
- To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end  
time so the food is ready when you require it.  
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC  
COOKING  
- Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the  
oven.  
- Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool  
as possible.  
- If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for  
automatic cooking, keep the delay time to a minimum.  
- Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delayed start cooking as it  
could cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the  
food.  
- We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry and meat, eg.  
shepherds pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay  
period.  
- Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial  
growth in food.  
- Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period,  
so it is best to add these ingredients just before serving.  
- Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in  
water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the  
oven.  
- Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.  
- Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the  
loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.  
- Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before  
serving.  
- Only reheat food once.

Solarplus Grill  
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use  
- children should be kept away.  
Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The  
solarplus grill is designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker  
because it takes less time to warm up from cold. Conventional grills  
require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed beneath them, but  
for normal grilling the solarplus grill can be used from cold without any  
pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved  
by pre-heating the grill for about 1 minute.  
Notes  
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh.  
This stops you from touching live parts.  
DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh  
as this could damage or break the element tubes OR if the grill is  
on cause an electric shock.  
During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it  
while the grill is still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and  
wait until it has cooled down before cleaning.  
Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted - DO  
NOT store the grill pan handle on the grill pan grid when the grill pan  
runners are on the top runner position.  
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the  
right. You can choose to have both sides on or just the left side on.  
Turning the control knob clockwise, will switch both sides on. Turning  
it anti-clockwise, will only switch the left side on.  
The numbers which are displayed indicate the heat setting:  
Number 4 is the hottest and number 1 the coolest.  
GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE TOP OVEN/GRILL DOOR CLOSED  
- This will cause overheating.  
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the Off  
position, ‘O’.  
1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.  
2. Position the rod shelf as recommended, in the chart (next page),  
for the food being cooked.  
To operate the grill  
proceed as follows:  
3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is positioned  
centrally under the element.  
4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause  
overheating of fat in the grill pan.

Top Oven – Conventional Cooking  
The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the  
grill element and the element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal  
for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts of meat in casseroles etc. but  
can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3lb).  
The operation of the controls is covered on page 7.  
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning (pages  
18 and 19).  
The top oven can be used either independently to cook small  
quantities of food or in conjunction with the main oven to provide  
additional cooking space.  
G
The shelf should be positioned on the first or second runner  
from the bottom.  
To use the oven  
G
Set the top oven control to the required temperature, the top  
oven light will come on and wait for the Preheat Temperature  
Indicator to go off, indicating that the oven has reached the  
right temperature.  
proceed as follows:  
25mm (1 in)  
G
G
The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre of the  
shelf with a gap of at least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill  
element. This should avoid burning and ensure even cooking.  
Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the oven.  
Plate warming  
in the top oven  
Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated  
when the main oven is in use.  
When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being  
cooked on the hob, place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf  
using the bottom runner and turn the top oven control to  
approximately 100˚C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all that is  
required to heat the plates and dishes.  
NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven for  
cooking or warming plates and dishes.  
WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items which could be affected by heat  
into the oven.

If using aluminium foil, never:  
1. Allow foil to touch sides of oven.  
2. Cover oven interior with foil.  
3. Cover shelves with foil.  
The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is  
to insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of  
poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat thermometer will indicate when the  
required internal temp has been reached.

Care and Cleaning  
Warning: Before cleaning, please ensure that the electricity supply to the appliance is switched off  
and the appliance is fully cold.  
1. “STAYCLEAN” OVEN LINERS (Top Oven sides, Main Oven sides and rear panel)  
(a) How "Stayclean" works.  
The surfaces of the "Stayclean" oven liners (Main Oven  
rear panel) are treated with a special vitreous enamel  
which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220˚C  
TOP OVEN SIDE LINERS  
(425˚F) or above, the special surface enables these soils  
to be slowly destroyed.  
The higher the temperature the more effective it is.  
(b) Cleaning.  
In most cases normal cooking operations at 220˚C (425˚F)  
will permit this cleaning operation to proceed during  
cooking. However if higher cooking temperatures are not  
used regularly, it may be necessary, in order to prevent  
heavy soiling, to run the ovens without shelves or meat pan,  
at a maximum setting for a couple of hours.  
It should not normally be necessary to clean the  
"Stayclean" panels with water. If the user feels it is  
desirable to do so, wipe them over with a clean, soapy  
cloth, followed by a wipe with a clean damp cloth.  
DO NOT use biological washing powder, harsh abrasives or  
chemical oven cleaners of any kind as this could damage  
the “Stayclean” oven liners (Main Oven rear panel).  
MAIN OVEN SIDE LINERS,  
REAR PANEL  
2. CLEANING GRILL, TOP OVEN AND MAIN OVEN  
(a) Base & Rear of Top Oven and Base of Main Oven.  
Wipe out the oven with a damp soapy cloth. For more  
stubborn stains on the base of the oven use a well  
soaped fine steel wool soap pad.

Care and Cleaning  
CLEANING THE DOORS  
Take particular care not to damage the inner surface of the door inner glass that is  
coated with a heat reflective layer. Do not use scouring pads, or abrasive powder,  
which will scratch the glass.  
Ensure that the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.  
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. For slight soiling the  
inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from the door. After  
cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.  
DROP DOWN DOORS  
Remove the door inner glass as follows.  
1.  
Open the door fully and remove the extrusion top filler cap. (This should be done  
by removing both screws, one on each side of the door - see below pic, then  
simply lift the inner glass out of position).  
NOTE: If you need to use a tool - be careful not to damage the extrusion or end cap.  
2.  
Carefully slide the inner glass towards you and  
withdraw it from its locating slots. Ensure  
that the door is not allowed to slam shut, due  
to the reduction in door weight.  
Clean the glass as described above.  
3.  
The inside of the outer door glass can now be  
cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.  
Remove two screws, to  
Top filler cap  
remove top filler cap  
NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.  
Refit the door inner glass as follows.  
1.  
Open the door fully.  
2.  
Locate the inner door glass into its slots, so that the printing is readable from  
the face nearest the oven in the closed position and the widest black band is  
towards the bottom of the door. The inner door glass has a special reflective  
coating on one side, in order to minimise surface temperatures and energy  
consumption during use, it is important it is fitted correctly.  
3.  
Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it will go and replace the top  
filler cap.

Installation  
Electrical Requirements  
For your own safety, we recommend that your cooker is installed by a  
competent person such as one who is registered with NICEIC (National  
Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting). The cooker should be  
installed in accordance with the latest edition of the IEE Regulations.  
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.  
Electrical Connections  
The installer must check that the voltage shown at the rating plate corresponds  
with the house electricity supply.  
The cooker must be supplied via a suitable double pole isolating switch, having a  
contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles placed in a readily accessible  
position adjacent to the cooker.  
If the cooker is to be wired into a connector unit, this may be positioned behind  
the cooker providing the following requirements are met:  
i) The connector unit must not project from the wall more than 25mm.  
ii) The top of the connector must not be more than 130mm above floor level.  
Remove the terminal cover at the rear base of the cooker. Pass the cable  
through the cable clamp and connect to the appropriate terminals provided.  
Allow sufficient cable for any future servicing.  
Tighten the screws on the cable clamp and replace the cover.  
Make main connections in the connector unit or cooker control unit.  
This appliance conforms to B.S. EN 55014 regarding suppression of Radio and  
Television reception interference.  
A double Pole control switch having a minimum rating of 32 amps should be used  
to feed the cooker using a suitably rated cable.  
Where a hob is fitted adjacent to or over the cooker, a 45 amp Double Pole  
control switch should be used to feed both units via separate suitably rated  
cables.  
We recommend a minimum of 4mm2 PVC insulated twin and earth cable  
conforming to B.S. 6004 for connection of each appliance.  
In all cases adhere to routing details (see fig. 4).  
This appliance must not be installed over any other appliance that generates  
heat such as a plinth heater  
Note: Due to many different types of installation, a mains cable is not supplied with  
this product. The installer will fit the correct type and length of cable.  
28  
 
Installation  
Important  
It is essential that the lower cupboard is constructed in the manner illustrated  
i.e. having side, back, and roof panels so joined as to provide no apertures which  
could permit access to the oven unit when installed.  
1. General  
The appliance is designed for mounting at a safe level into an oven housing which  
must be secured to the backing wall.  
2. Ventilation  
a. The oven housing unit cabinet dimensions must comply with fig. 4.  
b. An air gap of 50mm minimum must be provided at the rear of any top or  
bottom cupboards or shelves (see fig. 1).  
c. It is necessary that the cabinets are provided with unobstructed ventilation,  
i.e. from adjacent cabinetry. This can be done by either raising the base of  
the cabinets using the adjusting feet (or spacers) or alternatively by  
providing a slot in the cabinet plinth to the dimensions in fig. 1.  
d. The air gap at rear allows the warmed air to pass out of the inner cabinet  
space. Where it is intended to fit cupboards above the oven unit to ceiling  
height, it is essential that the warmed air is exhausted through the front of  
the cabinet (see fig. 1).  
e. If an oven unit is installed adjacent to a tall cabinet, steam escaping from  
the oven when the door is opened could condense on and maybe stain the  
adjacent surface. To prevent permanent staining, the adjacent surface  
should be made of a material that is heat resisting and easy to clean.  
Adjacent tall cabinets should not be deeper than the oven housing cabinet.  
3. Final Installation  
a. Using a spirit level, check that the housing cabinet is level from side to side  
and from front to back in its installed position.  
b. Correct any unevenness by placing spacers under the bottom of the cabinet.  
Make sure that the cabinet rests firmly on the floor without rocking.  
c. Before the oven is fitted, the cabinet must be firmly secured to the backing  
wall for stability.  
d. The oven unit should now be lifted (this is a two person lift) into the cabinet  
and pushed fully home.  
e. Finally, the oven is secured to the cabinet by means of the four Phillips C/SK  
screws - two through each side trim.  
f. Remove all packaging material from the grill and oven interior.  
List of loose items:  
4 x Phillips C/SK No. 6 x 15mm screws.

Steam is a by - product of cooking any food with a high  
water content. To help minimise always:  
Steam / Condensation  
in the oven after use.  
a)  
Try to avoid leaving food in the oven to cool after  
being cooked.  
b)  
Use a covered container, wherever possible.  
If you have been through the above list and there is still a problem, contact Service  
(see back page).  
Disposal of your product  
To minimise the risk of injury to children please dispose of your product carefully and  
safely. Remove all doors and lids. Remove the mains cable (where fitted) by cutting off  
flush with the appliance and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition where it  
could be connected to the electricity supply.  
To help the environment, Local Authority instructions should be followed for the disposal  
of your product.  
Disposal of old electrical appliances  
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment  
(WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the  
normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in  
order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce  
the impact on human health and the environment.  
The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your  
obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.  
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information  
concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
