Installation and Setup

Installing the oven accessories

Install telescopic slides (where supplied) to the side racks. Refer to the installation guide supplied with oven slides.
Insert side racks. There is a left-hand and a right-hand version.
To insert:
1. Insert the rear peg into the rear access hole, ensuring that the peg is fully inserted.
2. Locate the front peg into the front access hole and push in firmly.
To fit a shelf or tray to side racks:
1. Locate the rear edge of the shelf in between the guide rails of the side rack. Ensure the same rail positions on both sides of the oven are being engaged.
2. With the front edge raised, slide the shelf into the oven.
3. Once the detents have passed the front edge of the side rack, the shelf can be pushed completely in.
Fit shelf/tray (where supplied) to telescopic slides:
1. Push the shelf or tray along the top of the slide until it hits the back post.
2. Drop the front of the shelf or tray onto the slide, ensuring it sits behind the front post of the slide.

When fully inserted, the shelf/tray should not interfere with the closed oven door.

Set the time

You must set the time before you can operate your appliance.

When power is supplied to the oven, the [clock icon] will be displayed. Along with the clock symbol, the "12" will be flashing, indicating that the "hour" portion of the time is ready to be changed.
Toggle the temperature selector [minus button] or [plus button], then touch when you have the right hour.
The minutes will flash and can be set in the same manner. 5 seconds after the last change, the clock display will stop flashing, confirming the time has been set.

NOTE: The clock has a 24-hour display.

Condition the oven (to burn off any residue)

New appliances may have oil or residue left from manufacturing. You will need to heat your oven for 30 minutes before using it for the first time.

Turn the function selector dial to FAN FORCED [fan symbol].
Using the temperature selector, set the oven at 180°C for approximately 30 minutes. Please ensure that the room is well ventilated during this process.

Using Your Oven

Go!

You're ready to use your new Westinghouse appliance. A few tips from us:

Pre-heating

For best cooking results, pre-heat the oven. Pre-heating allows the oven to reach the required temperature quickly and efficiently, as well as cook food at the correct temperature for the entire cook time. Recommended pre-heat time is 30 minutes for baking and 3 minutes for grilling.

Choose the right program for the best result:

FAN FORCED [fan symbol]: This setting is best used when cooking on multiple shelves at once or reheating complete meals for your family.
FAN & GRILL [fan symbol][grill symbol]: When cooking large cuts of meat, this setting gives you results similar to 'rotisserie' cooked meat. When using ‘Fan Grill’, it is not necessary to turn food over during the cooking cycle. Set temperature to 180°C and cook with the oven door closed.
GRILL [grill symbol]: When it comes to cooking tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties, and other quick cooking foods, the grill setting will get you the best results. By preheating your grill for 3 minutes, this will help in sealing in the natural juices for a better flavour. Grill with the oven door closed.
EASY BAKE + STEAM [steam symbol]: Steam helps you get a better rise, crispier crust, a fluffier centre, and tastier textures for all your bread, pastries, cakes, scones, and puddings at home. (WVEP617 models only)
AIRFRY [air fryer symbol]: AirFry for that perfect, healthy crunch. When a food craving hits, make healthier and delicious food right in your oven. Deliver all the flavour and none of the guilt. AirFry allows you to make healthier tasty meals for the entire family - right in your oven. The only range with AirFry. (WVEP617 models only)

Refer to your full user manual for more details on oven functions.

Setting the Temperature

Toggle the temperature selector [minus button] or [plus button] as required to set the desired cooking temperature in °C. Note: the temperature can be adjusted at any time throughout the cooking time.
