Moving the cooker
Do not attempt to move the cooker by
pulling on the doors or handles. Open
the door and grasp the frame of the
cooker, taking care that the door does
not shut on your fingers.
Take care to avoid damage to soft or
uneven floor coverings when moving
the appliance. Some cushioned vinyl
floor coverings may not be designed
to withstand sliding appliances without
marking or damage.
Stability device
If the cooker is to be fitted with a
flexible inlet connection, a stability
bracket should also be fitted to engage
in the back of the cooker. Make sure
this is re-engaged whenever you move
the cooker for cleaning.
Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance
results in the production of heat and
moisture in the room in which it is
installed. Ensure that the kitchen is
well ventilated: keep natural ventilation
holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood). Prolonged intensive use of the
appliance may call for additional
ventilation, for example, opening of a
window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
If the ignition fails
I
Check there is a spark when the
ignition button is depressed.
I
If there is no spark, check that the
electricity supply is switched on at
the socket.
I
Check that the gas supply is
switched on.

I
Use oven gloves when removing
hot food / dishes from the oven or
grill. The oven / grill and utensils
will be very hot when in use.
I
Do not use foil on oven shelves or
allow it to block the oven flue, as
this creates a fire hazard, and
prevents heat circulation.
I
If the cooker has a storage
compartment below the oven,
this should only be used to store

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.

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.

‘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.

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.

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.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
Extra shelves can be ordered from the
Customer Care Centre.
