Safety
Cooker development has progressed rapidly. Y ou cannot always use your new cooker in the same way as your old one. For this reason, you should read the instructions carefully and familiarise yourself with your new cooker and what it can do. The cooker is intended for normal household use. Please let us know if you have views or questions about your cooker and its use. You can find our address and telephone number in the “Service” chapter.

When delivered, the cooker is adjusted to a bench height of 900 mm (35 .4"). The cooker has a telescopic plinth. You can change the height so that the cooker suits a bench hei ght from 848 mm (33.4") up to 933 mm (36.7").
Take care when positioning the cooker that you do not block the ventilation outle ts (behind the cooker and at the top behind the hood), the cooker must not be pushed in under a tiled edge or similar.
The cooker must have a clearance on both sides (see Safety).
Make sure that the cooker cable does not get crushed when moving the cooker.

Horizontal adjustment
The cooker must be level so that, for example, fat spreads evenly in the frying pan. Place a spirit level or a frying pan containing water on the ceramic glass plate when you want to check whether the cooker is level.
If necessary, from the front of the plinth, you can adjust the cooker wheels and feet by 15 mm (0.6"). Use a screwdriver to adjust the rear wheels and a Polygrip for the front feet.

The anti-tip guard
The anti-tip guard must be fitted to prevent the cooker from tipping over with abnormal loads.
The anti-tip guard onl y works when the cooker has been pushed into place.
HOW YOU FIX THE ANTI-TIP GUARD TO THE COOKER
:
1 Before fitting the anti-tip guard,
make sure that the cooker has been adjusted to the correct height, and is standing level (see page 7).

Make sure that the surface behind the cooker is smooth. If there are tiles or a moulding behind the edge of the hob, then there must be
a space with the same measurement between the anti-tip guard and the wall. This is so that the anti-tip guard is firmly attached to the cooker and functions correctly.

Telescopic runners
To prevent scratches during transport, the telescopic runners are covered with a protective coating when delivered. This coating must be removed from the runners before they are used, otherwise it can bu rn fast and damage the rails .
Note! Make sure that the cooker anti­tip guard is fitted, see page 8
The telescopic runners replace the ordinary oven step units that are fitted in the cooker when it is delivered. They consist of two rails that can be pulled out. The shelves, the roasting pan and the grid are laid on top of the rails. A locating pin keeps the shelf in position (see the illustration). Use of the telescopic runners for facilitates cooking. For example, when steak or chips are to be basted, the roasting pan is easily pulled out on the rails.
Fitting the rails
First remove the oven step units that are fitted (see page 55). When fitting, the rails are first inserted in the inner hole (1) and then in the outer (2). Push into position.
MAKE SURE THAT THE LOCATING PIN IS TURNED OUTWARDS TOWARDS THE OVEN DOOR
.
The rails must be pushed in when the oven door is closed.
15
Using grids, baking plates and roasting pan
It is important for the oven grid, the shelves and the roasting pan to be fixed between the stops in the front and rear edges of the rails to prevent them from falling off the rails. Place the baking plate/roasting pan/grid in the rear edge and fix against the front edge. The locating pin fits into a slot under the edge of the baking plate/roasting pan, which means that the baking plate/roasti ng pan is held in position.The rails must be in their pushed-in position when the grid/baking plate/roasting pan is inserted. For the best shelf stability, make sure that the bevelled edge is inwards in the oven. Pull the accessories carefully when using them so that the plate/pan/grid does not fall off the rails. Maximum load 20kg (44 lb.).
Using the oven grid
The locating pin is not needed when using the grid. The oven grid shelf has a mark on its upper surface. This marking must be at the front (towards the oven door) when in use. Make sure that food placed on the grid is positioned behind the marking. Otherwi se there is a risk that it will not be cooked properly at the front. The grid can be placed in the roasting pan. The maximum weight to be placed on the grid is 10kg (22 lb.).
NOTE! Make sure that the locating pin hooks in under the baking plate edge/roasting pan and that the baking plate/roastin g pa n r e st s on the rails, otherwise it can fall of f the rails in the pulled-out position. When the baking plate/roasting pan is removed in the pulled-out position, the rails must be pushed back again so that the oven door can be closed. Use oven gloves because the rails are hot.

Using the ceramic hob
The hob can not be used if the oven is not switched on, see page 27.
The hob has four heating zones with:

Never lay metal objects such as lids, k nives and s poo ns on the hob. They become hot if a heating zone is switched on by m ista ke.
Immediately after use (while the hob is still hot) clean with the blade scraper to remove sugar and spills with a high sugar content, such as marmalade, and also any melted plastic or foil, in order to avoid damage to the plate.
Never leave a deep fat fryer, melting fat, paraffin or other easily flammable substance unattended. In the event of fire, turn off the cooker knobs and switch off the cooling fan.

, never use water.
Make sure that there is no sand, sugar or salt on pots and pa ns. Sand can cause scratches, while sugar and salt can ruin the ceramic glass plate. Always dry pots and pans before placing them on the ceram ic glass plate. The coloured decor on the ceramic glass plate can become worn and scratched as it is used.

Safety switch-off of the cooking zones
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time or the heating setting is not changed, the cooking zone concerned is switched off automatically.
Residual heating is shown by (“hot”) in the digital display for the cooking zone concerned.
The cooking zones are switched off automatically in accordance with the following timetable:
Setting , , after 6 hours
Setting , after 5 hours
Setting after 4 hours
Setting , , , after 1.5 hours
If one or more of the cooking zones should shut off before the expiration of the stated time, see the chapter “Problems and remedies”
19
Residual heat warner
After one or more heating zones have been switched off, the digital display shows the
residual heat (“Hot”) for the respective cooking zone.
Even after the hob has been switched off, the display does not go out until the cooking zones have cooled down.
The residual heat can be used to melt foodstuffs or to hold food warm.
Important! There is risk of burns as long as the residual heat warner is alight.
Important! In the event of a power cut, the symbol goes out and
thereby the residual heat warning. There is still the rusk of burns. Burns can be avoided by being observant.
Choice of pan/frying pan
A cooker with a ceramic glass plate makes greater demands on your pots and pans that a cooker with heating plates. Remember the following:
Check the bottoms of pots and pans. Pans with a convex bottom (bulging outwards) tend to swivel on the ceramic glass plate and provide poor heating contact.
• Aluminium has good heat conductivity, but can leave silvery marks on the plate.
• Casseroles and pans that are made of glass or are enamelled with deep patterns cause more wear if they are pulled backwards and forwards on the plate than pots and pans made of other mate rials.
