INTRODUCTION

Your new cooker is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only applicable if the appliance has been installed in accordance with the

installation instructions detailed in this booklet.

To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.

The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.

Note: When the cooker is first used, an odour may be emitted - this will cease after a short period of use

To help remove the 'new' smell, heat up the empty oven(s) to maximum for a minimum of two to three hours keeping the oven doors closed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated (e.g. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room until the smell has ceased.

This odour is due to any temporary finish on oven linings and elements and also any moisture absorbed by the insulation.

*The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:

(a)Has been used solely in accordance with the Users Instruction Book.

(b)Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate attached to this equipment.

(c)Has not been subjected to misuse or accident or been modified or repaired by any person other than the authorised employee or agent.

(d)Has been correctly installed.

DISPOSAL OF YOUR PRODUCT

To minimise the risk of injury to children please dispose of your product carefully and safely. Remove all doors and lids (where fitted). Remove the mains cable (where fitted) by cutting off flush with the appliance and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition where it could be connected to the electricity supply.

To help the environment, Local Authority instructions should be followed for the disposal of your product.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

When used properly, your appliance is completely safe but as with any electrical product there are certain precautions that must be observed.

PLEASE READ THE PRECAUTIONS BELOW BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE.

ALWAYS

Always make sure you remove all packaging and literature from inside the oven/grill compartment before switching on for the first time.

Always make sure you understand the controls prior to using the appliance.

Always keep children away from the appliance when in use as the surfaces will get extremely hot during and after cooking.

Always make sure all controls are turned off when you have finished cooking and when not in use.

Always stand back when opening an oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to disperse.

Always use dry, good quality oven gloves when removing items from the oven/grill.

Always take care to avoid heat/steam burns when operating the controls.

Always turn off the electricity supply at the wall switch before cleaning and allow the appliance to cool.

Always make sure the shelves are in the correct position before switching on the oven.

Always keep the oven/grill door closed when the appliance is not in use.

Always keep the appliance clean as a build up of grease or fat from cooking can cause a fire.

Always follow the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.

Always keep ventilation slots clear of obstructions.

Always refer servicing to a qualified appliance service engineer.

SAFETY ADVICE

IN THE EVENT OF A CHIP PAN OR ANY OTHER PAN FIRE:

1.TURN OFF THE COOKER APPLIANCE AT THE WALL SWITCH.

2.COVER THE PAN WITH A FIRE BLANKET OR DAMP CLOTH, this will smother the flames and extinguish the fire.

3.LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT. Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing outside with it.

NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT A PAN FIRE as the force of the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over. Never use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.

OVEN TIMER OPERATION

Note: Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the oven can be used.

AUTOMATIC COOKING

The Oven can be controlled by the Automatic Timer .

HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING

1.Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.

2.To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the food is ready when you require it.

3.Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.

4.Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as possible.

5.If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for automatic cooking, keep the delay time to a minimum.

6.Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.

7.We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g. Shepherd's Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay period.

8.Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in food.

9.Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it is best to add these ingredients just before serving.

10.Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the oven.

11.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.

12.Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.

13.Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.

14.Only reheat food once.
