I purchased the unit from a private party and the original owners manual was not available. Having the ability to download it was extremely helpful and clarified operating the equipment immensely. This is a complicated unit and without the manual I would not have been able to maximize it's potential. Thank you.
Being a user of older radios of many kinds, preferring them over more modern rigs, this manual was invaluable in the programming of my two. I now know for certain what the assorted buttons functions are, and am very grateful to have found this excellent site. Many thanks for your assistance, Tony.
5 star quality on these downloadable manuals. Easy to read and all the information is there. A must when doing a custom install or needing to service your precious old school electronics.

Using the oven
Always cook with the oven door closed �
Conventional cooking
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol �
( ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. If you need more heat from the top or the bottom of the oven, turn the oven function control knob to (top heating element only) or (bottom heating element only).
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 overheated. 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.
Fan cooking
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 (fig.8). If you are cooking only one dish in the fan oven, use the lower positions, as this will give you better results.
Hints and Tips on Cooking Fish and Meat
You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the dripping pan in the first position from the bottom with some water in it. The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base. White meat, poultry and fish in general, need a medium temperature cooking (between 150 and 175 °C). If you need to cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a higher temperature (between 200 and 250 °C) for a short time is recommended.
Grilling
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. When using the double grill function, you will obtain even heating on the whole surface of the dish. When grilling meat or fish, spread a little oil on them and always place them on the oven grid. The shelf level depends on the thinckness of the food. Always place the dripping pan at the lowest level, with some water in it, to avoid smoke and unpleasant smells.
Hints and Tips on baking
Cakes usually need a medium temperature cooking, between 150 and 200 °C. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) is recommeded when cooking cakes or baking. Once the cooking has been started, keep the oven door closed during all the cooking time, and check the cooking results through the oven door glass.
Thermal grilling
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( - ) and set the thermostat knob on the required temperature. When using this cooking function, select a maximum temperature of 200°C and do not exceed 1 hour of operation. The full grill element and the oven fan operate alternately, circulating hot air around the food. The need to check and turn food is reduced. With the exception of toast and rare steaks, you can thermal grill all the foods you would normally cook under a conventional grill.
Hints and Tips on grilling
If you need to grill meat or fish, place them directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil on them. In the grill function, heat comes only from the top element. Therefore, you need to adjust the cooking level depending on meat or fish's thickness. Always remember to place the dripping pan in the lower position with some water in it.
Fan cooking
Defrosting
Turn the oven function control knob to the relevant symbol ( ) and set the thermostat knob on the OFF position (symbol : l). 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.
