Whirlpool WS68I9SPX 60cm Wide Induction Freestanding Pyrolytic Oven with 4 Induction Zones

• 81L oven capacity: a large electric oven with a grey enamel cavity and 5 shelf positions, with room for large meals and multiple dishes at once.
• Four induction zones: four 210mm zones, each 1,800W with 2,100W Booster, across 9 power levels. Induction heats the pan, not the hob, for faster and more energy-efficient cooking.
• Black tempered glass hob: a smooth, flat surface with sensor touch controls that is easy to wipe clean.
• Air Fry: an advanced convection function used with the supplied air fry basket, giving crisp results without turning the food or using much oil.
• Multi-Cook: uses the top and circle heating elements with the fan to cook several dishes at the same temperature on up to 2 racks.
• Flexi Clean: choose Pyrolytic self-cleaning, which burns off residue at high heat for an easy wipe-down, or hydrolytic Smart Clean, which uses steam for a quick, eco-friendly clean.
• Fast Preheat: reaches the set temperature quickly, with a beep when preheating is complete.
• Auto pan detection: the hob only heats when a suitable pan is on the zone.
• Child Lock: locks the oven control panel and the hob controls.
• Three-layer glass door: an efficient, insulated door that keeps heat in the oven, with a removable door and inner glass for cleaning.
• Storage drawer: an integrated drawer under the oven for trays and cookware.
• Telescopic rail, grill rack, baking tray and air fry basket included: ready to use straight out of the box.
• Safety chains and levelling feet: two safety chains are supplied and mounted to the oven to prevent tipping, and the feet adjust the height and level.

Oven functions (per the Whirlpool use and care guide):

• Conventional: upper and bottom heating elements, 30°C to 260°C, for cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.
• Convect Bake: top and bottom heating elements with the fan for constant heat distribution, 30°C to 260°C. Recommended for cooking pre-packaged food quickly.
• Forced Air: rear heating element and fan for even heat, 30°C to 260°C. Ideal for baking and cooking delicate food on 3 shelves at the same time, such as cakes that need to rise, cream puffs, biscuits, savoury puffs, swiss rolls and small vegetable gratins.
• Pizza: forced air and bottom heating elements circulate hot air for even cooking and melted toppings, while the bottom element gives a crispy base.
• Defrost: bottom heating with the fan circulating room temperature air, to speed up defrosting of delicate foods such as ice cream, cakes, cream, custard desserts and fruit cakes. For meat, fish and bread, the guide recommends Forced Air to accelerate the process.
• Grill: radiant heat from the powerful upper element, 80°C to 230°C. Recommended for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops, sausages, fish and cheese toasts. Preheat for 3 minutes and slide the grill dish into either of the 2 spaces within the upper pair of support rails.
• Maxi Grill: direct radiant heat from 2 powerful upper elements, 80°C to 230°C, cooking faster than the normal grill. Preheat for 3 minutes to help seal in the natural juices of the meat.
• Turbo Grill: top central heating with the fan, 80°C to 230°C. The grill element cycles on and off to hold the set temperature while the fan circulates hot air, and it is recommended for large cuts of meat without needing to turn them over. Place the food on the 2nd or 3rd rack with the deep tray on the lowest shelf.
• Multi-Cook: top and circle heating elements with the fan, 50°C to 260°C. Cooks various dishes at the same time at the same temperature, using a maximum of 2 racks. Recommended for gratin finishes and prolonged cooking such as lasagne, baked pasta, roast chicken and potatoes, as well as fish, vegetable side dishes and leavened cakes.
• Air Fry: top and circle heating elements with the fan, 150°C to 230°C, used with the air fry basket. Suitable for french fries, chicken wings and nuggets without having to turn the food.
• Delicate Cook: bottom heating element and fan, 50°C to 230°C, suited to pastries, cakes and non-dry sweets in baking tins. Place the food on a low level.
• Eco Forced Air: rear heating element and fan with gentle, intermittent air circulation, 40°C to 230°C, to stop food drying out. The light stays off during cooking and the door should not be opened until the food is cooked, to optimise power consumption.
• Smart Clean: a low-temperature steam cleaning cycle. Remove all accessories, pour 150ml of drinking water on the bottom of the cold oven, set the function at 220°C for 20 to 30 minutes, then let it cool and wipe with a wet cloth.
• Pyrolytic Clean: a very high temperature self-cleaning cycle that burns off cooking spatters, with three durations: Low (approx. 2 hours), Medium (approx. 2.5 hours) and Strong (approx. 3 hours). Use the quicker cycle regularly and the full cycle only when heavily soiled.

Controls and daily use:

• Oven control panel: On/Off, temperature, function, time, lamp and Fast Preheat buttons with a display and navigation buttons to adjust settings.
• Hob control panel: ON/OFF, Boost, heating zone selection, power and timer controls (+ and -), a timer control and a lock.
• Duration and end time: set a cooking duration and delay the start by programming the end time. The oven starts automatically once set.
• Fast Preheat: short press the Fast Preheat button after starting a program. It works only when the set temperature is over 100°C, and a beep sounds when preheating is done.
• Favorites: save a function with its temperature and time as a favorite by holding the favorites button for 2 seconds. A new setting overwrites the previous one.
• Child Lock: press and hold the lock buttons for 3 seconds to lock the control panel. It can also be activated during cooking.
• First time use: heat the empty oven at 250°C for about half an hour to remove manufacturing odours, and ventilate the room afterwards.
• Hob zones: four zones of 1,800W (2,100W Booster). The residual heat indicator stays on until the hotplate drops below 60°C.

Australian Consumer Law

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.

This freestanding cooker suits households that want an induction hob and a self-cleaning oven in a single 60cm footprint, whether replacing an existing electric cooker or upgrading from a ceramic or gas model. Induction cookware must be compatible, and the guide recommends flat-bottomed pots slightly larger than the hotplate, no more than 50mm of overhang, placed dry on the zone. Stored heat can be used for the last few minutes of cooking by simply switching the control off, and aluminium foil must never be left on a hot hotplate.

The oven rewards cooks who like variety. Air Fry with the supplied basket handles chips, wings and nuggets, Pizza gives a crisp base, and Multi-Cook can run two racks at the same temperature for lasagne, roast chicken and potatoes. Eco Forced Air keeps the oven light off and relies on gentle, intermittent air circulation, so the door should stay closed until the food is done. For cleaning, Smart Clean works with 150ml of water at 220°C for 20 to 30 minutes on a cold oven, while Pyrolytic offers three cycle lengths, so you can match the clean to how dirty the oven is. Fast Preheat only works when the set temperature is above 100°C, and it will not start if the cavity has already reached the set temperature.

A few practical points: keep shelves and accessories out of the oven during a Pyrolytic cycle, and never place cookware, foil or anything else on the cavity floor, which can damage the enamel. When grilling or using Turbo Grill, the dripping pan should always sit on level 1. The cooker is for household use only, not for professional or outdoor use, and the oven door and some surfaces become very hot in use, so keep children away. Do not use the cooker if the glass hob is cracked or broken.
