Installing the accessories

- Ensure shelf orientation is correct (refer to diagram below).
- Slide the oven shelves on to the oven supports (side runners) at an angle, until the raised back of shelf is past the stop on oven supports (side runners).
- Lower the front of shelf and push it in until stop is reached.
- To remove oven shelves, withdraw to the stop and raise the front of shelf to clear the stop.
Oven shelf location: Note: The top ledge is not a shelf position. There are no stops for shelf withdrawal.

2. Grill in oven
The grill dish with wire insert can be used in any of the two upper height positions (shelf positions 4 and 5) between the runners.
Note: You must remove the grill dish when baking in the oven.
Diagrams show the orientation of side and rear features for shelf insertion and the grill dish insertion and final position.
Condition the oven (to burn off any residue)
New appliances can 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 "Oven".
- Using the "Grill/oven" temperature control knob, set the oven at 180°C for approximately 30 minutes.
Please ensure that the room is well ventilated during this process. ?️
Go!
You're ready to use your new Westinghouse appliance. A few tips from us:
Remember to pre-heat each time.
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:
RADIANT COOKTOP
The high-speed radiant cooktop heats rapidly from a cold start, saving you both power and time.
OVEN
In a conventional electric oven, heat comes from two elements: one above and one below the food. The bottom element is hidden below the floor of the oven. The centre shelf is ideal for baking at precise temperatures.
GRILL
When it comes to cooking tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish, cheese toasties, and other quick cooking foods, the grill setting will give you the best results. Pre-heating your grill for 3 minutes will help in sealing in the natural juices of the food for better flavour. Grill with the oven door closed.
Refer to your full user manual for more details on oven functions.
Set your temperature
- To set the temperature, turn the "Grill/oven" control knob in a clockwise direction ➡️ to the desired setting.
- An indicator light in the display will turn on, and the oven will begin to heat.
- Once the food is cooked, turn the "Grill/oven" control knob back in an anti-clockwise direction ⬅️.
Note: The desired cooking function must be selected before the oven will turn on. The oven indicator light cycles on and off once the desired temperature is reached.
Set a Timer
- The "60 minute timer" control knob (where fitted) sets a reminder time.
- To set the timer, simply turn the knob clockwise ➡️ to the required number of minutes.
- When the timer returns to zero, it will give a short ring.
Note: For any time below 15 minutes, turn the knob past 15 minutes, then back to the required time setting.
