INTRODUCTION TO TM: FISHER & PAYKEL'S DYNAMIC TRUE CONVECTION SYSTEM

SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE

Fisher & Paykel AeroTechTM is an enhanced convection cooking system. Air is drawn through spiral intakes at the center of the rear cover and pushed out around the oven cavity in a dynamic turbulent motion. The soft contours of the interior promotes even airflow throughout the entire oven providing the ideal environment for multi-shelf cooking.

The large cavity provides ample usable space, which is illuminated by three interior halogen floodlights. Visual feedback of cooking progress is instant. Active venting incorporates a fan and smoke eliminator to remove odours when required.

OVEN MODES

Your Fisher & Paykel AeroTechTM oven has 9 cooking modes plus Warm and Self Clean. These modes use different combinations of elements and the convection fan to give you maximum flexibility when cooking.

The modes are explained in the following pages. Which elements are being used and the nature of the oven environment is also described.

Bake

Pastry Bake

Self Clean

Warm

Roast

Broil

Maxi Broil

TrueAero is a very flexible method of cooking. A concealed heating element surrounding the fan in the rear of the oven heats air which is then blown into the cavity. The consistent temperature creates an ideal oven environment giving baking which is well risen and evenly colored. Cookies are crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle, meat and poultry is delicously browned and sizzling while remaining juicy and tender. Casseroles are cooked to perfection and reheating is quick and efficient. TrueAero is the mode to choose for multi-shelf cooking and complete oven meals.

The oven fan circulates hot air from the top outer and lower concealed elements and distributes it around the oven cavity. Food cooked using the AeroBake mode tends to brown more quickly than foods cooked on conventional modes like Bake. AeroBake is great for crisping pastry in lemon meringue pie and vegetable phyllo parcels. AeroBake at a low temperature (120??F / 50??C) is ideal for drying fruit, vegetables and herbs.

BAKE

Heat comes from the top outer and lower concealed elements. Bake is the conventional cooking mode, suitable for single shelf cooking. It is ideal for foods that require long cooking periods or cooking at low temperatures, like meringues and rich fruitcakes. Bake at 100??F / 30??C is great for proofing bread.

Heat from the lower concealed element is circulated throughout the oven cavity by the oven fan. Excellent for sweet and savory pastry foods, for moist breads and brownies and cookies that you want extra chewy. AeroPastry is the mode we recommend for the pizza stone.

PASTRY BAKE

Uses the heat from the lower element only, this is a traditional cooking mode which is suitable for recipes that were developed in older ovens. For best results, cook on only one shelf at a time. Perfect for foods that require delicate cooking and have a pastry base, like custard tarts, quiches and cheesecake or anything that does not require direct heat and browning on the top surface.

WARM

Warm is a constant low heat of 165??F / 75??C. It is excellent for keeping cooked food hot and warming plates and serving dishes. To reheat food from cold; use TrueAero and change to Warm when the food is hot, as this mode will not bring cold food up to a temperature high enough to kill any harmful bacteria.

O V E N M O D E S

ROAST

Roast is a two step program that has been developed to help you cook delicious roasts effortlessly. Place the meat in the cold oven and the first stage will sear the meat at a high temperature for 20 minutes to crisp and brown the exterior. The oven then automatically drops to a lower, selected temperature for the remainder of the cooking time, giving you a moist and juicy roast. Roast can be used with or without the cooking probe and is also great for cooking vegetables.

BROIL

Broil delivers intense heat from the inner region of the top element. Great when you need to quickly broil smaller dishes, for example Cr??me Brulee, or 1 ??? 2 portions of your usual favorites, like crispy chicken breasts or 1 T-bone steak. Broil takes a minute or so to warm up and is carried out with the door closed. Power levels are expressed as a percentage from LO (50% power) to HI (100% power).

MAXI BROIL

Maxi Broil delivers intense heat from the entire top element. It is the most suitable mode for ???finishing off??? many meals, for example browning the top of potato gratin and frittata as well as cooking smaller cuts of meat. Use Maxi Broil to toast garlic bread or make crostini as well as broiling all your usual favorites. Maxi Broil takes a minute or so to warm up and is carried out with the door closed. Power levels are expressed as a percentage from LO (50% power) to HI (100% power).

AeroBroil produces food with a finish that is similar to a rotisserie. Meat, poultry and vegetables cook beautifully; food is crisp and brown on the outside while the inside remains moist and tender. Try using this mode with foods you might usually fry, like meatballs. Great for chops, cutlets and ground beef burgers as well as for vegetables with delicious caramelized flavors. Use a short preheat for best results.

SELF CLEAN

This oven features a pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle that takes care of the mess and grime that is traditionally associated with oven cleaning. During Self Clean the oven reaches higher temperatures than it does for cooking and this burns off and breaks down soil and grease deposits. A smoke eliminator and active venting system eradicates odour. The ash residue that remains can simply be removed from the cool oven with a damp cloth or sponge.

ALL ABOUT THE ACTIVE VENT AND COOLING FAN

The Active Vent fan allows perfect results in all modes with the oven door closed. A cooling fan will come on automatically whenever the oven is in use and blow air out below the oven door. During Broil, Maxi Broil, AeroBroil and Self Clean the cooling fan runs at a higher speed in order to keep your oven exterior cool.

O P T I L E V E L TM

OPTILEVELTM

Fisher and Paykel???s patented Optilevel TM shelving system allows you to choose the optimum cooking level within the oven. Placing the shelves on or between the runners provides a massive 13 cooking positions to choose from.

Remember to organise the shelves prior to heating the oven. Generally the shelf positions located in the top region of the oven are suitable for broiling. Shelves in the middle and lower region of the oven are suitable for baking, roasting and casseroles. For more specific information on which shelf position to use, refer to the Cooking Charts which start on page 26.

Your oven shelves come with built in stop locks for your safety, this means when inserted properly they will not tilt when pulled towards you.

BROILING SYSTEM

Your AeroTechTM oven comes with Fisher & Paykel's unique broiling system, purpose designed to prevent hot fat and juices in the broiler pan splattering throughout the oven. The broiling system is intended to be used as one complete unit, however it can be interchanged to suit your cooking preference as illustrated.

For shelf positions suitable for broiling please see the Cooking Chart on page 30. For adequate drainage of grease, always broil using the entire broiling system. If you choose to cover the broiler grid with foil be sure to cut slits in the foil to enable grease to drain into the broiler pan.

GLASS TRAY

These are made of extremely tough glass and are perfect oven to tableware. The glass tray is great for all Broil and Bake modes. Wash in hot soapy water or the dishwasher. Soaking with a little dishwasher detergent will help to remove stubborn stains.

COOKIE SHEETS

The Cookie Sheets have a non-stick finish and need only a light coating of cooking spray or greasing before use. Their dark color absorbs heat and you may find that your favorite recipes cook more quickly than on old shiny trays. You can take advantage of this to speed up baking by reducing the cooking time a little. Or you can reduce the oven temperature by approximately 25-30??F / 15-20??C. Allow your baking to cool for a few minutes after it comes out of the oven before removing it from the sheet using a wooden or teflon spatula. Always remove food before it is completely cold and in most cases wiping with a paper towel is all that is needed to clean the sheets.

PIZZA STONE AND PADDLE

Your Pizza Stone will allow you to cook a pizza as good as a bought one with a crispy base but at the same time a topping that is moist and doesn???t dry out. When you first get your Pizza Stone wipe it with a damp cloth (no detergent). It then needs to be conditioned by heating in the oven for 1 hour at 400??F / 200??C on AeroPastry. If you do not use your Pizza Stone for any length of time it may need to be conditioned again.

Do not wash your Pizza Stone as it will absorb water and crack on heating.

Using the Pizza Stone is a great way to cook bought, ready made pizzas as well as home made ones. If cooking frozen pizza, allow to defrost completely before placing on the hot Pizza Stone.

Baking Guide for the Pizza Stone

Place the Pizza Stone in the oven on a shelf in position 12. Turn oven to AeroPastry and 400??F / 200??C or the temperature and mode specified in your recipe, and preheat for 30-45 minutes. The hotter the stone, the crispier the pizza base will be.

Mix together 1-2 tsp of flour and 1-2 tsp of coarse cornmeal and sprinkle this onto the pizza paddle. This will stop the pizza dough sticking to the paddle when you come to slide it onto the hot stone.

Roll out your dough on a floured worksurface and place on the pizza paddle. The base can be thicker or thinner, according to taste. It may help to leave a small lip of dough extending over the edge of the paddle. This will stick to the back of the hot stone when you put the pizza in the oven and assist with sliding the pizza off the paddle.

Add toppings to the dough.

Carefully slide the pizza onto the hot stone. Pull the oven shelf out halfway to make this easier.

Thin based pizza will be cooked after about 10 minutes. Pizzas with thicker bases will take a little longer.

If you are making more than one pizza, prepare the second while the first is baking. It is best to add toppings to the base while it is on the pizza paddle as a fully laden uncooked pizza is difficult to lift off a work bench onto the paddle.

Allow the stone to cool before brushing off any remaining flour and cornmeal and storing. Do not wash the stone. It will become stained with repeated use but this will not impair it???s performance or hygiene.

WARNING

Food safety is an important consideration when using delayed cooking modes.

To avoid potential spoiling of food and sickness, take the following steps:

Avoid using foods that will spoil while waiting for the cooking cycle to begin. Typical foods to avoid include those containing eggs and dairy products, cream soups, cooked and uncooked meats, poultry and fish.

If cooking will not begin immediately, place only very cold or frozen food in the oven. Most unfrozen foods should never stand in the oven for more than two hours before cooking begins.

Do not allow foods to remain in the oven for more than one hour after completion of the cooking cycle.

O V E N O P E R A T I O N

Select the oven mode and temperature and preheat the oven if appropriate. Roast does not require preheating. AeroBroil needs only a short preheat.

Insert as much of the metal cooking probe as possible horizontally into the thickest part of the fully defrosted meat. The thicker the meat, the longer it will take to cook, so it is important that the probe is measuring the temperature of the meat at it???s thickest point. Make sure the probe does not touch bone, fat or gristle, as this will give you a false reading.

Place the meat on the broiling system.

When the oven has preheated (if required) to the set temperature place the broiling system in the oven and insert the plug end of the cooking probe into the probe socket, using an oven mitt if the oven is hot. The probe socket is on the left hand side of the oven, halfway down between shelf positions 3 and 5. Make sure the probe is pushed into the socket, then close the oven door.

Select the upper or lower cavity for double oven models using the oven cavity selector button.

Press PROBE on the control panel. The pre-set temperature of 150??F / 65??C and ???Probe??? will light up in the display. If you want to select a different internal food temperature from the preset temperature, rotate the SETTING SELECTOR while ???Probe??? is flashing. For Cooking Probe and Roasting Guidelines, see page 31.

The display will show the actual internal temperature. To look at the set internal temperature press PROBE. The

oven will beep and automatically turn off when the set internal temperature has been reached. The temperature and oven mode displays will remain on and the oven light will go out.

Return the oven to manual mode by pressing the PUSH TO CLEAR button. Turn the oven mode and temperature dials OFF. To cancel the probe setting before the set temperature has been reached press PROBE then PUSH TO CLEAR.

The cooking probe can be used with Automatic Cooking functions. The probe must be plugged into the probe socket in the side of the oven cavity before you can set it but this can be done before or after Automatic Cooking is set and both of these can be done when the oven is on. If the probe reaches the set temperature before the Stop Time is reached the probe will turn the oven off.

The internal temperature of the meat will continue to rise by 5-15??F (2-8??C) after you have removed it from the oven so allow for this in your calculations. This is particularly important if you want a rare or medium rare roast. The higher the oven temperature used, the greater the rise will be. For suggested times and temperatures, see the chart on page 31. It is a good idea to let all roast meats stand for 10 - 15 minutes before carving - the juices will be less likely to run when you carve.

Important points to note:

Use only the cooking probe that was supplied with your AeroTechTM oven.

Hold the cooking probe at the ???handles??? when inserting and removing it from food and the cooking probe socket. If the cooking probe is hot, handle it with an oven mitt, do not use tongs as this may damage the cooking probe. Remember to remove the cooking probe from the oven before you start a clean cycle.

Do not store the probe in the oven.

Only use the probe with foods that are fully defrosted.

O V E N O P E R A T I O N

BROILING

Your AeroTechTM oven gives a choice of Maxi Broil, Broil and AeroBroil. For many meats broiling is considered to be a healthier alternative to frying. Broiling is also a great way to cook vegetables. Broiling is a relatively quick method of cooking foods producing superior flavor. Carry out all broiling with the oven door completely closed. The power level can be regulated, it is expressed as a percentage from LO (50% power) - HI (100% power). We recommend using HI to broil but lower temperatures work well too.

MAXI BROIL AND BROIL

For best results allow the broiler to warm up for a minute or two before putting food in the oven. Place the food on top of the broiling rack, grid and pan.

Select the shelf position- see the Broiling Chart on page 30 for suggested shelf positions, times and temperatures. Once the broiler has preheated, place food in the oven.

Use the minute timer to time the broiling process if desired. Use oven mitts to remove the pan as it will be hot.

Broiling is suited to foods you might want to toast, brown or crisp. All broiling is carried out with the oven door closed.

AEROBROIL

When using AeroBroil we recommend a short preheat (about 5 minutes) but this is not essential. The upper elements are used and the hot air is circulated around the oven by the oven fan situated at the rear of the oven cavity. Place the food on top of the broiling rack, grid and pan. Select the shelf position you want to broil at - see the Broiling Chart on page 30 for suggested shelf positions, times and temperatures. AeroBroil is suitable for foods that you might normally pan fry, barbecue or rotisserie, and for larger cuts of meat.

WARNING

When using Broil or AeroBroil take care in opening the door as there may be steam and use oven mitts to handle the hot pan.

Tips for Successful Broiling

We recommend using the broiling system provided with your AeroTechTM oven. This has been specifically designed to

reduce splatter and smoke. Use only alternative glass or ceramic dishes and pans that can withstand the high temperature of the broiler.

Basting lean meat, fish or chicken with a marinade or juices whilst broiling will add flavor and moisture.

If turning meat halfway through the cooking time, use tongs or a spatula. Avoid piercing meat with a knife or fork as this will allow juices to escape making the meat less moist.

To make cleaning your broiling dishes easier, spray the rack, grid and inside of the pan with a light coating of non-stick cooking spray before use and soak them in warm water and detergent before washing them in a dishwasher or by hand.

Position the oven shelves before you turn the oven on. All broiling is carried out with the oven door closed.

BAKING

The AeroTechTM Advanced Convection Cooking System

Convection means moving air; and convection cooking is a technology that is well established in bakeries and commercial kitchens. The Fisher and Paykel AeroTechTM oven incorporates an advanced convection system where a concealed element in the rear of the oven heats air that is then circulated evenly around the oven cavity. Cooking with AeroTechTM is substantially different to cooking in a conventional oven. In AeroTM modes moving air browns and crisps the outer surfaces of food, cooking 10-20% faster and at temperatures 25???50??F (5???10??C) lower than normally recommended for most recipes. Browning is very even, eliminating the need to move or turn food and allowing you to cook several trays of food at the same time, saving time and energy. Baked foods like souffles, puff pastry and angel food cake will also have a greater volume and lighter texture than if cooked in a conventional oven. The inside of meat stays juicy and tender, while the outside becomes deliciously crisp and full of flavor.

Tips for Successful Baking

Read your recipe right through and assemble the ingredients and equipment on the counter before you start baking to avoid last minute panics.

Organize the oven shelves while the oven is cold. If you are not sure which shelf position to use, a general rule is to place the food so that the top surface of the food is as near to the center of the oven as possible.

Set your oven to preheat while you are getting ready. Many baked items don???t like to be kept waiting for the oven to reach the desired temperature.

Use baking paper to line cake tins and you???ll eliminate the need for greasing. Do this before you start mixing. Measure ingredients accurately.

When cake making, your ingredients (including eggs) should be at room temperature. When creaming butter and sugar the butter should be soft but not liquid. Cream butter and sugar until they become pale in color and the mixture looks light and aerated. ???Fold??? flour in very gently using a large metal spoon and a cut and fold action until ingredients are just combined. Pour the mixture into prepared pans and then tap the pan gently on the bench to release any large air bubbles.

For maximum volume when whisking egg whites, make sure bowl and beaters are scrupulously clean and free from grease. When baking, make sure the cake tins do not touch each other or the sides of the oven ??? stagger tins across shelves if

necessary and use TrueAero for multi shelf cooking. Do not open the oven door until at least 3/4 through the suggested cooking time.

Light textured cakes are cooked if the center springs back when pressed gently with your finger, the edges have shrunk away from the pan slightly and they are attractively browned. Denser cakes are cooked when a thin skewer pushed carefully to the bottom of the pan in the thickest part of the cake, comes out without uncooked mix on it. If there is uncooked mixture on the skewer, return the cake to the oven for a little longer.

Baking pans that are made of dark, dull metals are recommended in appliances with a concealed lower element like the AeroTechTM oven. They absorb heat and often cook and brown food faster than reflective, shiny aluminum pans and sheets. Bear this in mind in case you need to lower the cooking time and/or temperature of your favorite recipes. Never put a shiny sheet or oven liner on the floor of the oven as this could damage the porcelain enamel.

Use the cookie sheets provided with your oven. They have been custom designed and perform extremely well. They are non- stick and need only a light coating of cooking spray, or greasing before use. Remember that you may need to bake for a shorter time than on older shiny sheets. Good air circulation is necessary for best results; space cookies evenly over the sheets and make them all the same size and thickness so they cook evenly. Use TrueAero to cook on several shelves at the same time. When it comes out of the oven allow baking to settle for a few minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack. It is much easier to do this before it is completely cold. Wipe your non-stick cookie sheets with a paper towel and store. Pans may benefit from being dried in the cooling oven.

MULTI SHELF COOKING

Multi shelf cooking is very successful using the TrueAero mode. Fisher & Paykel???s AeroTechTM system allows you to bake several different foods simultaneously on different levels giving you increased flexibility - as well as saving time. TrueAero is well suited to batch baking of cookies, biscuits, scones, and muffins as well as complete oven meals. See the Baking Chart on page 26 for suggested times, temperatures and shelf positions for multi rack cooking.

DEHYDRATING / DEFROSTING

Your AeroTechTM oven can be used to dehydrate or defrost foods at low temperature in the TrueAero mode.

Tips for Dehydrating

To obtain a high quality dried product, select only unblemished, mature fruit.

Wash fruit thoroughly and pat dry, peel if desired. Unpeeled fruit will take longer to dry. Remove stones, stems or pips if necessary. Place fruit on a cookie sheet on a shelf in the oven.

To dehydrate foods, we recommend using TrueAero or AeroBake at a temperature of 120??F / 50??C.

Tips for Defrosting

To defrost foods select the TrueAero mode and a temperature of 120??F / 50??C. Select the shelf position(s) and place food that is to be defrosted in an oven safe dish in the center of the oven shelf.

Use the minute timer if desired to time the defrosting process. Time taken to defrost will depend on the size and weight of the item being defrosted - it pays to check it regularly.

TIPS FOR PROOFING BREAD

Your AeroTechTM oven provides an ideal sealed environment to proof bread.

Select Bake and 80??F / 30??C.

CONTROL PANEL LOCK

Locking the controls disables all the buttons and dials which can be useful when cleaning oven surfaces or preventing accidental bumps and unauthorised use. The control panel can only be locked when the oven is off.

Press PUSH TO CLEAR and hold down for 5 seconds to lock the controls. Repeat to unlock.

COOKING PROBE AND ROASTING CHART

We recommend you use the Cooking Probe to accurately judge when meat is cooked to your preference. ???Time per pound??? is a rough guide and should only be used to estimate when the meat will be ready. Cooking with

Roast, TrueAero, AeroBroil and AeroBake will take less time than with Bake.

*Brown prior to roasting on an oiled skillet or frying pan on high heat. The internal temperature of venison rises more on standing due to the high cooking temperature, therefore the suggested probe settings are lower than other rare or medium rare meats.

VEGETABLES

Vegetables are excellent cooked on Roast. See Tips for a Successful Roast on page 19.

Please read the following section to ensure that the correct cleaning is carried out to maintain your ovens appearance. Your oven has been produced using several different finishes, due to this please follow the recommended cleaning instructions to avoid permanent damage.

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock or burns, ensure that all oven controls are turned off. Only clean your oven when it is cool. Do not use harsh / abrasive cleaning agents, waxes, pumice cleaners, polishes or commercial oven cleaners to clean your oven.

CLEANING THE CONTROL PANEL, OVEN DOOR AND HANDLE

It may be useful to lock the oven controls prior to cleaning ??? see Control Panel Lock on page 22 for details.

Brushed Stainless Steel can be cleaned with a commercial stainless steel cleaner, see ???Warning??? below or wiped with a clean damp cloth and dried with a lint free cloth. Regular use of a stainless steel cleaner will reduce fingerprints and other marks. Do not use abrasive cleaners on stainless steel, as they will permanently damage the surface.

Iridium (Matt Stainless Steel) This easy clean surface requires only a mild dishwash detergent and warm water. Rinse and then dry with a lint free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners on Iridium as they will permanently damage the surface.

WARNING

If you choose to use a commercial stainless steel cleaner, please read the label to ensure it does not contain chlorine compounds as these are corrosive and may damage the appearance of your oven. Clean the stainless steel surfaces with the grain, in a horizontal motion.

CLEANING THE DOOR GLASS

Clean the exterior glass surface with a mild solution of detergent and warm water. Use a glass cleaner to remove any smears or fingerprints. Dry the glass using a soft lint free cloth. The interior oven door glass will be cleaned during the Self Clean cycle.

CLEANING THE PORCELAIN ENAMELLED SURFACES

The oven interior and inner door liners are finished in porcelain enamel and are cleaned during the Self Clean cycle.

WARNING

DO NOT USE ANY OVEN CLEANERS, OVEN CLEANING PRODUCTS OR

ABRASIVES ON THE PORCELAIN ENAMEL

Always remove excess grease and any soil from the interior of the oven and door before commencing the Self Clean mode. Do not clean the door or cavity seals (gaskets) or use any oven cleaning products on the seals. They are essential for a good seal and the efficient operation of the oven and care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the seals.

CLEANING THE BROILING SYSTEM AND OVEN SHELVES

The broiling system and oven shelves can be cleaned using a solution of detergent and hot water. If particularly soiled, soak in a sink of hot soapy water to make cleaning easier. Remove oven shelves before starting a ???Self Clean???. If the oven shelves are left in the oven during Self Clean mode, they will permanently discolor.

FAULT CODES

If a fault occurs, the oven will ???beep??? every second and a fault code will appear in the clock display as a letter ???F??? with a number after it. Depending on the nature of the fault, it may be possible to clear the display by pressing the PUSH TO CLEAR button.

If you have any questions about operating the product, please contact our Fisher & Paykel Customer Care Centre.

HOW TO CHANGE THE OVEN LIGHT BULBS

The oven is illuminated by 3, 12 volt, 20 watt halogen bulbs. These have a very long life, but if you should need to replace one, turn the oven off and allow it to cool. Take out the shelves and use a small flat head screwdriver to twist and lift the retaining clip at the top of the glass light cover. The clip pivots counter clockwise (see the diagrams below). Carefully lift the glass cover out of the lower support. Pull out the faulty bulb and, holding it in a soft cloth or tissue (touching the bulb will reduce its life span), insert the replacement. The two pins are vertically orientated. Reposition the glass cover and twist the top clip back in place. The procedure is the same for the light in the roof of the oven cavity.

Use a flat-head screwdriver to turn the bracket and free the plate glass cover.
