2. Safety Instructions
Always adhere to the following safety guidelines to prevent injury or damage to the appliance:
- Ensure the oven is correctly installed by a qualified technician before use.
- Do not allow children to operate or play with the oven.
- The oven becomes hot during operation. Avoid touching hot surfaces. Use oven mitts.
- Never use abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass, as they can scratch the surface and lead to shattering.
- Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before performing any cleaning or maintenance.
- Do not store flammable materials in or near the oven.
- Ensure proper ventilation around the appliance.
3. Installation and Setup
3.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove the oven from its packaging. Inspect the appliance for any signs of damage. Retain packaging materials for potential future transport or return.
3.2 Electrical Connection
The oven must be connected to a suitable electrical supply by a qualified electrician. Ensure the voltage and frequency ratings match those specified on the appliance's rating plate. The appliance must be properly earthed.
3.3 First Use
Before cooking food, operate the empty oven for approximately 30 minutes at its maximum temperature (250°C) to burn off any manufacturing residues. This may produce a slight odor and smoke, which is normal. Ensure the kitchen is well-ventilated during this process.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Control Panel Overview
The Atlantic ATBO.30N4TX oven features a user-friendly control panel with two rotary knobs for function and temperature selection.
Figure 2: Close-up of the oven's control panel, showing the function and temperature knobs.
- Left Knob: Function Selector. Turn this knob to choose your desired cooking mode.
- Right Knob: Temperature Selector. Turn this knob to set the oven temperature from 50°C to 250°C.
4.2 Static Cooking Function
The static cooking mode is traditional and ideal for dishes requiring slow, even heat distribution. Heat is generated by elements at the top and bottom of the oven. This method is particularly suitable for:
- Leavened products such as bread, cakes, and pizzas, as it allows them to rise gradually.
- Dishes that require thorough cooking, ensuring they are cooked and dry inside.
Temperature Adjustment: If a recipe specifies a temperature for a fan-assisted oven (e.g., 180°C), reduce the temperature by approximately 20°C for static cooking (e.g., set to 160°C).
4.3 General Cooking Tips
- Preheat the oven to the desired temperature before placing food inside.
- Avoid opening the oven door frequently during cooking to maintain a consistent temperature.
- For optimal heat circulation, remove any unused trays or racks from the oven during cooking, especially the dripping pan, as it can obstruct heat distribution.
- Utilize the transparent tempered glass door to monitor cooking progress without opening the oven.
5. Care and Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential for the hygiene and performance of your oven.
5.1 General Cleaning
The oven can accumulate dirt and grease. Follow these steps for thorough cleaning:
- Disconnect Power: Always unplug the oven from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
- Remove Accessories: Take out all racks, side supports, and trays to access the oven interior easily.
- Clean Interior: Use a commercial degreasing solution or a homemade mixture of baking soda and water. Apply the solution and let it sit for 2-12 hours. For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive scraper. Be careful not to let liquid enter any openings.
- Wipe Down: Wipe all surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with water. For extra shine, spray some vinegar and wipe again.
- Clean Accessories: For racks and trays, use baking soda, water, and a metal sponge to remove encrustations.
- Clean Glass Door: Clean the glass door gently with a non-abrasive product to avoid scratches. Dry with a smooth cloth.
