Burner caps and heads

Important: Allow burners to cool before cleaning. Caution: Hotplate burners can be damaged by soaking, automatic dishwashers (or dishwasher powders / liquids), caustic pastes, hard implements, coarse wire wool, and abrasive cleaning pastes. For the burners to work safely, the slots in the burner head where the flames burn need to be kept clear of deposit. Clean with a nylon brush, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Hotplate burners may be cleaned with a moist soapy pad - eg; “Brillo”. Important: The burner caps and heads must be repositioned correctly so that they sit squarely onto the hob as shown below. Griddle care and cleaning Do not use metal implements as they may damage the non stick surface. After cooking allow the griddle to cool completely before attempting to remove or clean. Once the griddle has cooled, remove any excess fat with kitchen paper before moving. The griddle can be cleaned with hot soapy water and a nylon brush. If any food residue is left on the griddle, leave it to soak for a few minutes in hot soapy water before attempting to clean it. Do not use caustic pastes, abrasive cleaning powders, coarse wire wool or any hard implements, as they will damage the surface. Do not clean in a dishwasher. After cleaning, dry thoroughly then re-season the cooking surface by wiping sparingly with a minimum amount of oil, and store in a dry place. 14 incorrect burner cap not central incorrect angled correct parallel burner cap burner head Ignition Push in and turn the selected control knob anticlockwise to the large flame symbol and press the ignition switch (if fitted) until the burner lights. Turn the control knob to the required setting. Adjust the burner flame so that it does not extend over the pan base. To turn off, push in the control knob and turn clockwise until the dot on the control knob is below the line on the facia panel. To simmer The simmer position is marked by the small flame symbol. Once lit turn the selected control knob anticlockwise past the large flame symbol (full on) to the small flame symbol. You may hear a slight popping noise when the hob burners are operating and this is quite normal, but if anything about the cooker appears unusual, such as change in flame appearance, or the operation of controls - seek expert advice. Pans Use pans with a flat base of minimum 100mm / 4 ins diameter and maximum 280mm / 11 ins diameter which are stable in use. Avoid using old misshapen pans or any pan which is unstable when placed on a flat surface. Turn pan handles to a safe position so they are out of reach of children, not overhanging the appliance and cannot be caught accidentally. Position pans over the centre of the burners, resting on the pan supports. If positioned off centre, smaller pans may be unstable. When cooking with fat or oil, never leave unattended. Commercial simmering aids should not be used as they create excessive temperatures that can damage the surface and may cause a hazard. When you have finished cooking check that all controls are in the off position. 7 Using the Hob

Using the Griddle (if supplied)

Caution: Accessible parts may be hot when the griddle is used. Young children should be kept away. Griddle symbol Please read these instructions thoroughly before using the griddle plate for the first time. Only use the griddle which has been approved for use on this appliance. Do not use any other griddle, as this may be hazardous. For instructions on griddle cooking, please refer to the accompanying cooking guide. Before using the griddle for the first time Wash the griddle thoroughly in hot soapy water (see “Cleaning” section). Season sparingly with a minimum amount of cooking oil (see below). Heat the griddle on full rate for 3 minutes. The griddle plate is now ready for use. Seasoning the griddle The griddle is made of quality cast iron, and has a non-stick cooking surface. Regular seasoning will prolong the life of the griddle and prevent rusting. If the griddle shows signs of rust, wash and re-season. To season; I After cleaning, dry the griddle thoroughly. I Rub the cooking side of the griddle sparingly with a minimum amount of unsalted vegetable oil. Note that olive oil is unsuitable for seasoning. Using the griddle The griddle should only be used with small and medium sized burners on the right-hand side of the hotplate, as indicated by the griddle symbol on the fascia panel. Do not use the griddle over large burners, wok burners or the left-hand side small and medium burners. Place the griddle carefully on the pan support over the burners, using the locating feet on the underside of the griddle. Take care to avoid damage to the vitreous enamel surface of the pan supports. Before cooking, preheat the griddle for 3 minutes on full rate, which is indicated on the control knobs by a large flame symbol. After preheating, turn the control knobs to the small flame symbol. The griddle is now ready for cooking. Do not use metal implements, as they may damage the non-stick surface. After cooking, allow the griddle to cool before moving or cleaning it. 8 13 Stainless steel surfaces (if fitted) FACIA PANEL & HANDLES (STAINLESS STEEL FINISH MODELS ONLY), STAINLESS STEEL HOTPLATE SPILLRINGS Only use a clean cloth wrung out in hot soapy water, and dry with a soft cloth. Stubborn marks can be removed using “Luneta”. We recommend that you clean the whole of the stainless steel area to maintain a uniform finish. Supplies can be purchased from the Customer Care Centre. Do not use undiluted bleach or any products containing chlorides as they can permanently damage the steel. Extra care should be taken when cooking food in salted water. Some foods are corrosive - eg; vinegar, fruit juices and especially salt - they can mark or damage stainless steel if they are left on the surface. Wipe any spillage immediately, taking care to avoid skin contact with any hot surface or spillage. Sharp objects can mark the surface of stainless steel, but marks will become less noticeable with time. Painted, plastic & metal finish parts (where fitted) PAINTED METAL DOOR PANELS (IF FITTED), PAINTED FACIA PANEL & SIDE PANELS, HANDLES & CONTROL KNOBS Only use a clean cloth wrung out in hot soapy water. Care & Cleaning

Any cleaning agent

used incorrectly may damage the appliance. Always let the cooker cool before cleaning. Some cooking operations generate considerable amount of grease, this combined with spillage can become a hazard if allowed to accumulate on the appliance through lack of cleaning. In extreme cases this may amount to misuse of the appliance and could invalidate your guarantee. It is recommended that the appliance is cleaned after open roasting. Do not use caustic, corrosive or abrasive cleaning products, products containing bleach, coarse wire wool or any hard implements, as they will damage the surfaces. All parts of the cooker can be safely cleaned with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water. Vitreous Enamel Parts GRILL PAN & GRILL COMPARTMENT, HOB TOP & PAN SUPPORTS, OVEN COMPARTMENT FLOOR Use a mild cream cleaner - eg; “Cif”. Stubborn marks may be removed with a moistened “Brillo” pad. The grill pan may be cleaned in a dishwasher, or with a nylon brush in hot soapy water. Chrome plated parts OVEN SHELVES & OVEN SHELF RUNNERS, GRILL PAN TRIVET Do not use abrasives or polishes, use a moist soap pad - eg; “Brillo”. Note: Oven shelf runners can be removed for cleaning. Grasp the runners, and slide out of the hanging holes as shown. Note: These items may also be cleaned in a dishwasher. ‘Easy care’ surfaces OVEN SIDES AND BACK We recommend that the appliance is cleaned after open roasting, and also after roasting at temperatures higher than 200˚C, to help prevent a build up of fats. Use of a trivet in a roasting tin when roasting will help reduce fat splashing. Caution: Most types of cleaning agent will damage these surfaces. Only use a few drops of washing up liquid in hot water. Wipe the surfaces with a clean cloth wrung out in hot soapy water - if larger splashes of fat do not readily disappear, scrub the area with a nylon brush or nylon pan scourer and hot soapy water. Rinse well and heat the oven to dry the surfaces. Care & Cleaning Caution: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young children should be kept away. To switch on the grill Open the grill door. Turn the grill control knob clockwise to the required setting. Important: Keep the grill door open when the grill is on. To switch off, return the control knob to the “off” position. Preheating For best cooked results, always preheat the grill for about 3 minutes. The cooling fan When the grill is switched on, you will hear the cooling fan come on - this keeps the fascia and control knobs of the appliance cool during grilling only. The fan will continue to operate for a period after the grill control has been switched off. Should any fault occur with the cooling fan, the appli- ance will require servicing - contact Customer Support. Detachable grill pan handle Place the handle over the edge of the grill pan, at the narrow side edges. Slide the handle to the centre, and locate between the handle position indicators. The handle should be removed from the pan during grilling, to prevent overheating. The handle is designed for removing / inserting the grill pan under the grill when grilling. If cleaning the grill pan when it is hot, use oven gloves to move it. Do not use the handle to pour hot fats from the grill pan. Food for grilling should be positioned centrally on the trivet. 9 Using the Grill handle grill pan trivet handle position indicators

Using the grill

The temperature of the grill is variable, and can be adjusted by turning the grill control to the required setting. Setting 8 is high and 1 is low. The speed of grilling can also be controlled by selecting a higher or lower shelf position. It is recommended that the high temperature setting is used for toasting and for cooking foods such as bacon, sausages or steaks. Use a higher shelf position. For thicker foods such has chops or chicken joint pieces, the temperature may be reduced to a lower setting. Use a lower shelf position. The trivet position can also be adjusted as detailed below; I The grill trivet inside the grill pan can be inverted to give a high or low position, or it may be removed altogether. I For toasting, use the highest trivet position. The lower trivet position is useful for grilling all types of meat or fish. I With the grill trivet removed the food is placed directly on the base of the grill pan - eg; when cooking whole fish, or browning dishes such as cauliflower cheese. Push the grill pan to the back of the shelf to position it under the centre of the grill. Never allow fat to build up in the grill pan, as this creates a fire hazard. For best results, preheat the grill for 3 - 5 minutes before use. When you have finished grilling, check that the control knob is returned to the “off” position. Aluminium foil Using aluminium foil to cover the grill pan, or putting items wrapped in foil under the grill, creates a fire hazard, and the high reflectivity may damage the grill element. 10 Using the Grill Caution: Accessible parts may be hot when the oven is used. Young children should be kept away. The left-hand side oven is conventional. The right-hand side oven is fanned. Please refer to the accompanying cooking guide for instructions on using the ovens. To switch on the ovens Turn the selected oven control knob clockwise to the desired temperature setting. To switch off, return the control knob to the “off” position. Conventional oven Caution: The top element gets extremely hot when in use, so take care to avoid touching it. Important: Never put items directly on the base of the oven or cover the oven base with foil, as this may cause the element to overheat. Baking tray and roasting tins For best cooked results and even browning, the maximum size baking trays and roasting tins that should be used are as follows; Baking tray 290mm x 270mm This size of baking tray will hold up to 16 small cakes. Roasting tin 320mm x 270mm We recommend that you use good quality cookware. Poor quality trays and tins may warp when heated, leading to uneven baking results. Oven shelves The oven shelf must be positioned with the upstand at the rear of the oven facing up.
