The electrical installation work must be undertaken by a qualified electrician/competent person.

It is dangerous to alter or modify the specifications of the appliance in any way.

Do not allow young children to play with any part of the packaging.

After installation, please dispose of the packaging with due regard to safety and the environment, your local authority can arrange this.

DURING OPERATION

This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control system.

Do not use this appliance if it is in contact with water. Never operate it with wet hands.

This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Young children must not be allowed to tamper with the appliance or play with the controls.

During use the appliance becomes Hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.

CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.

Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they will ignite if they become too hot.

This appliance has been designed for cooking edible foodstuffs only, and must not be used for any other purposes.

Never place plastic or any other material which may melt in the oven or on the hob.

Ensure cooking utensils are large enough to contain foods to prevent spillages and boil overs.

The handles of saucepans which are smaller than the heated area on the hob will become hot. Ensure your hand is protected before handling the pan.

6

Take care to follow the recommendations given for tending the food when grilling.

Do not leave the grill pan handle in position when grilling as it will become hot.

Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the oven. Similarly always use oven gloves to remove and replace the grill pan handle when grilling.

Follow the recommendations on page 16.

Ensure that you support the grill pan when it is in the withdrawn or partially withdrawn position.

Ensure that all vents are left unobstructed to ensure ventilation of the oven cavity.

Ensure the anti-tilt shelves are put in place correctly. Refer to instructions on pages 16 and 18.

Never line any part of the appliance with foil. Do not allow heatproof cooking materials e.g. roasting bags, to come into contact with oven elements.

Always stand back from the appliance when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.

Never leave the appliance unattended when the doors are open.

Do not place sealed cans or aerosols inside the oven. They may explode if they are heated.

Do not leave the hotplates switched ON for long periods when not covered by a saucepan. The controls and cabinets may overheat.

AFTER USE

For hygiene and safety reasons this appliance should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially in the grill pan.

Do not leave utensils containing foodstuffs, e.g. fat or oil in or on the appliance in case it is inadvertently switched ON.

Cookers and hobs become very hot, and retain their heat for a long period of time after use. Children should be kept well away from the appliance until it has cooled.

INTRODUCTION

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable).

The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.

Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.

INSTALLATION

If your appliance has been damaged in transit, contact your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install it.

Your appliance left the factory fully packaged to protect it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging and damage has occurred, the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for advice.

Once the packaging has been removed the appliance should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack barrow or any other aid to lift the appliance as damage may occur.

Connection to the electricity supply must be carried out by a qualified electrician/competent person.

The electrical connection should be made using a double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at least 3mm contact separation in all poles. The cable must have conductors of sufficiently high crosssectional area to prevent overheating and deterioration.

The recommended cross-section area is six square millimetres (6.00mm2).

The cable should be routed away from potentially hot areas marked by X in the diagram below.

To move the appliance, open the oven door, and lift the appliance by holding inside the top of the compartment.

This is a type X appliance, which means it is freestanding and can be fitted with cabinets on one or both sides. It may also be fitted in a corner setting.

Side walls which are above hob level should be protected by heat resistant non-combustible material and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob side.

A nominal air gap of 2mm at either side of the appliance is required to enable the appliance to be moved into position. It is recommended that proprietary trims are fitted to protect the worktops of either side of the appliance. These are available from most DIY stores.

Always ensure an air gap is maintained at hotplate level. Tiles or other forms of deep wall covering should not obscure this gap.

Air gap

Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a minimum of 685mm above the hob.

8

It is important to ensure that the appliance is level after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR APPLIANCE

We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 – 15 minutes at 220oC to burn off any residue from their surfaces. The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 – 10 minutes. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The oven is vented to allow some of this steam to escape between the wall and the rear of the appliance. However, always stand back from the appliance when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.

If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEON

The light will indicate whether the oven is switched on, the neon also indicates when the set temperature has been reached. The neon will turn on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

The cooling fan may not switch on except when used for a longer period of time. The cooling fan may run on, and turn on and off after the control knobs have been switched off, until the appliance has cooled. Do not switch the appliance off at its power point until the fan has cooled the appliance down.

GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE

The following items of grill/oven furniture have been supplied with the appliance:

1 grill pan

1 grill pan handle

1 grill pan grid

1 straight shelf for grilling only

2 straight shelves for fan oven cooking
