CONVENTIONAL OVEN (Model 600C and 600S) 
 
Baking 
• 
Set the oven thermostat to the required temperature. 
• 
The thermostat indicator light will glow and remain on until the oven has reached the 
selected temperature. The light will then switch off. 
• 
Thereafter place the food in the oven. 
• 
During the baking cycle, the indicator light will switch on and off as the thermostat 
maintains the selected temperature. 
• 
After baking is completed, the thermostat must be turned to the "0" position in 
an anti clockwise direction. 
Note 
• 
The oven thermostat is marked down to 70°C.  When set to this position, the oven 
may be used as a warmer. 
• 
All ovens extract moisture from the food being cooked, especially so during the 
winter months. This is normal and not detrimental to the food or the oven. 
Baking Guide 
• 
Where possible, bake on the middle shelf position of the oven. 
• 
Place the food halfway between the back of the oven and the door. 
• 
Do not open the oven door until at least two thirds of the baking time has lapsed. 
• 
The roast pan must not be used for baking purposes 
 
Grilling 
• 
The oven door must remain closed during grilling. 
• 
Position the wire shelf in the desired position below the grill element 
• 
Set the oven thermostat to the GRILL position. 
• 
The thermostat indicator light will glow. 
• 
Pre-heat the grill element for about 5 minutes. 
• 
Partially withdraw the shelf and place the broiler / roast pan with the food on it in the 
centre of the shelf. Slide the shelf back into position. Close the door. 
• 
Monitor the grilling to avoid burning the food. 
• 
Care must be taken not to touch the grill element while handling food in the oven. 
• 
After grilling is completed, the thermostat must be returned to the "0" position 
in an anticlockwise direction.
 
NB The broiler / roast pan may also be pre-heated at the same time as the grill 
element. This helps to seal the meat when placed on the broiler
 
 
WARNING:  
ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN GRILLING. ALWAYS USE 
OVEN GLOVES WHEN HANDLING FOOD IN THE OVEN AND KEEP 
CHILDREN WELL AWAY FROM THE PRODUCT WHEN IT IS IN USE.
