Installing the oven
Cabinet Dimensions
This oven must be fitted into a cabinet with a suitable sized aperture.
Minimum aperture height874mm
Minimum aperture width560mm
Minimum aperture depth560mm
Location
For your safety
This oven must be installed and serviced by a competent person
as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) regulations
current edition.
It is important that the oven is suitable for your gas supply. Your
installer should check the data badge.
For your safety
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.
For further details see page 37.

General information
To get the best results from your new oven please read these
instructions carefully.
You should pay particular attention to cooking times and gas mark
settings as these may differ from your previous oven. You may find it
necessary to adjust these until you are more familiar with the oven.
For your safety
Do not block any of the oven vents.
Never line any part of the oven with aluminium foil.
Do not let items which can catch fire or electric mains leads such
as kettle flexes trail over any part of the oven.
Oven housing units vary widely in construction and finish. To avoid
possible damage to the housing unit, you must not leave cabinet doors
or flaps above the oven open or partially open when you use the grill or
oven. If you have a storage area above your oven it will become warm
when you use the oven. Do not store perishable foods in the storage
area above the oven.
General informatio
The cooling fan for the controls
Your oven has a cooling fan. The cooling fan will start to work as soon
as you light the grill or oven. You will be able to hear the fan when it is
working.
The cooling fan may continue to work after you have turned off the
oven or grill. It will switch itself on and off until the oven has cooled
down.
If you want to turn off the electrical supply to the oven, you should
not do so until the cooling fan has stopped working.
For your safety
When you are using the grill or oven warm air will exhaust from
the grill cavity and the vents below the control panel.
Take care not to stand too close to the oven or grill while in use.

Ignition
The grill and oven burners light automatically when you turn on the
control. If, for any reason either of the burners go out, the spark ignition
will automatically relight it.
Please note:
You can only use the grill with the door fully or partially open. You
cannot use the grill when the door is closed.
You cannot use the oven or grill in the event of a power failure.
Oven light
Your oven is fitted with a oven light.
The oven light will come on when you use the oven.
Your Oven light bulb will usually last for many months. If the oven light
will not work, you probably need to replace the bulb. See page 32 for
details on how to change an oven light bulb.
Connecting to the electricity supply
For your safety
This appliance must be earthed and protected by a 3 amp fuse.
The plug supplied with the oven can be fitted directly to a suitable three
pin earthed socket.
If you have to change the fuse replace it with a 3 amp fuse which has
been ASTA approved to BS 1362.
Do not use the plug until you have put the fuse cover back on. If the
fuse cover is lost you can get a replacement from an electrical retailer.
The correct replacement can be identified by marking or colour coding.
If you cut the plug off dispose of it safely as it will be a shock hazard
if it is inserted into a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the house.
If the ignition system doesn't work there may be a fault with the
electrical supply. First, check the socket by trying out another piece of
electrical equipment in it, if that works correctly renew the fuse in the
plug.
If the fuse keeps failing there is a fault in the oven which must be put
right. Do not use a fuse with a rating higher than 3 amps. Do not carry
out other electrical work. Unplug the oven and tell your installer.

The grill
We suggest that you run the grill without food for approximately 5 - 10
minutes to burn off any residue from the surface. During this period an
odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for
ventilation.
Heat control
The grill gives variable heat settings.
The control knob turns to the left from
'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. The high
setting should be used for fast cooking such
as toast. Use a lower setting to cook thicker
foods such as chicken after it has been
browned on the high setting.
You should remember to turn the food
regularly.
You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to
cook the food.
The grill pan should be used on the shelf without the metal plate
underneath it. The shelf can be positioned in any of the runner positions.
You can reverse the grill pan grid to suit different types of food.
If you close the door whilst the grill burner is lit, it will go out and you
will hear a continuous 'sparking'. The burner will automatically re-light
when you open the door.
The grill
For your safety
You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit.
Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young
children should be kept away.
Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill
fires.

Cooking positions
Most food should be cooked on the grid in
the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to
suit different thicknesses of food.
You can place some dishes straight on
the grill shelf. This is useful when you are
browning the top of food such as cauliflower
cheese.
Preheating
You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for
a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or browning food.
Putting food on the grid
Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and
muffins towards the centre of the grid. If you
put food outside this area it may require
rotating during cooking.
Place food which needs a more gentle
heat, such as tomatoes or mushrooms
towards the edge of the grid.
Arrange meat, meat products and fish to
suit their thickness and how you like them
cooked.

Grill shelf
The grill shelf can be slotted into place in either of two positions. You
can use the shelf in position two or on the base of the grill compartment.
You can only use these two shelf positions when you want to use the
grill. For safety the shelf will only pull out so far. If you want to remove
the shelf completely pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge
and lift it out. To put the shelf into a different position, keep the front
edge raised, slot the shelf onto the runner, lower the front edge and slide
the shelf in.
You should use the shelf without the
metal plate when grilling.
Use shelf position two when toasting and
adjust the height of the grid to suit.
Shelf positions are counted from the top
downwards.
For your safety
Always remove the grill pan before attempting to adjust the shelf
position. Oven gloves should be used when removing or pulling
the shelf in and out.
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.

The grill pan and handle
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so
that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan.
Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan.
Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to
remove the grill pan handle during grilling.
Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally
beneath the grill.
To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle
away from the cut out on the grill pan.
Note
If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered
from your local Service Force Centre by quoting part number
311479800\6.

the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of
the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make
use of these heat zones when you are
cooking foods requiring different
temperatures all at the same time. You can
use the base of the oven to warm plates.
If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example
cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking. Or you could
remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to
the higher shelf to finish cooking.

Preheating
You do not need to preheat the oven for casseroling and so on.
Preheat the oven for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food
such as Yorkshire puddings, soufflés and yeast mixtures.
When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the
instructions on the packaging.
When you need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for
20 minutes.

Oven shelves
E O G 9 0 0
The two oven shelves can be slotted into place in any of 5 positions. For
safety the shelves will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf
completely, pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift
it out.
To put the shelf into a different position, keep the front edge raised,
slot the shelf onto the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in.
The shelf positions are counted from the
top downwards and recommended shelf
positions are given in the cooking charts on
pages 17, 18 and 19. When cooking always
try to leave at least one runner position
between shelves to allow the heat to circulate
properly.
The recommended shelf positions given in the oven cooking charts give
the best results.
When you only need to use one shelf you can store the other shelf
above or below the one you are using where there is more space.
Use the shelf with the metal plate in a higher runner position when
cooking on two levels.

Baking trays and dishes
The oven
For the best results we recommend that you use a baking tray which is
310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which is larger than this,
you may need to turn it around during cooking.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking.
Roasting
For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to
prevent splashing.
It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when
roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended
cooktimes.
If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be
prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb).
When cooking large items such as turkeys, the use of foil may be
required to prevent the breast becoming dry before the rest of the bird is
fully cooked.
Condensation
Condensation may form on the oven. This is quite normal and nothing to
worry about. The condensation forms when heat and moisture are
present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make
sure that food which contains a lot of moisture for example casseroles
are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up straight away.
For your safety
Never place cooking dishes, trays
and so on over the oven burner.
This will damage the oven as well
as the ovenware and possibly the
cabinet underneath the oven.

Slow cooking
The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly
useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the
long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender.
Some foods such as pastry and biscuits are not suitable for slow
cooking because the temperature is too low.
Cover all food during cooking to prevent it from drying out. You can
uncover food for the last half hour if it is normally served golden brown.

Frozen foods
Thaw thoroughly before cooking.
Thickening
Toss meat in flour for casseroles. Alternatively blend cornflour with
water and add it at the end of cooking.
Flavouring
Flavours are held in the food because there is little evaporation. Adjust
flavouring at the end of the cooking time.

Hints and tips for automatic cooking
1 Check the instructions for setting the automatic controls until you are
familiar with the timer operation.
2 If the oven has been used, allow it to cool completely before using
for automatic cooking.
The electronic timer
3 You should leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible
before automatic cooking starts.
4 Do not leave food to stand in the oven when it has finished cooking.
You should remove it and if it is not going to be eaten at once, cool it
quickly.
5 If you cannot remove food from the oven as soon as it is cooked
make sure that the food is covered.
6 Choose perishable foods carefully, especially during warm weather.
7 Food should be fresh and preferably straight from the refrigerator.
8 Joints of meat and poultry must be completely thawed.
9 Dishes containing left over cooked meat or poultry should not be
cooked automatically if there is a delay period.
10 Choose dishes which require approximately the same cooking time.
Slight variations may be allowed by:-
i) placing foods in larger or smaller containers
ii) using more or less liquid
iii) cutting fruit or vegetables into larger or smaller pieces.
These will give longer or shorter cooking times respectively. Further
temperature adjustments can be made by placing the foods higher
or lower in the oven as the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom.
11 Arrange shelf positions to suit dishes and choose dishes which will fit
into the oven together.
12 As food may be standing for some time in the oven, cover dishes
with foil or a lid where possible, and in the case of roast potatoes and
joints of meat, brush with a little fat or oil. Lemon juice may be added
to fruit and vegetables to prevent browning.
13 Cream should be added just before serving.
14 If alcohol is used fermentation can occur.
15 Green leaf vegetables which take only a short time to cook, should
not be placed into the oven with the automatic meal. It is far better to
cook them in a pan on the hotplate whilst dishing up the rest of the
meal.

Care and cleaning
For your safety
For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas oven
clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuff could cause a fire.
Try to mop up spills and splashes as soon as they happen.
But be careful as parts of the appliance will be hot.
Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or
soap powder except those recommended in this booklet.
Please note: If we recommend you
use hot soapy water we mean hot water
with washing up liquid in it and not any
other cleaning appliance.
If you own a dishwasher please
read the operating instructions for the
machine before you wash any part of
your appliance in it.
Clean your oven regularly using a cloth that has been wrung out in
hot soapy water. Rinse and polish it dry using a soft cloth.
When you remove parts of your oven for cleaning do not plunge
them into water whilst they are very hot as this may damage the finish of
the parts.
Care and cleaning
You must not remove the control knobs when cleaning the control panel.
The grill
Clean the grill compartment, the shelf, grill pan and handle, grid ,and the
inner grill door while they are still slightly warm. This way you can easily
remove any splashes and spills. Clean them with a cloth that has been
wrung out in soapy water. You may use mild abrasives such as 'Cif'. For
more stubborn marks you may occasionally need to use a soap filled
pad such as 'Brillo'.

Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over.
Do not use dishes too high in the oven. If
you do they may stick to the oven roof.
Cover your roasting tins with foil. This will
prevent fat splashing.
Use a roasting tin which is just large
enough for the meat and potatoes. This will
help to reduce fat splashing.
Dry any vegetables that you are going to
roast. If they are wet there will be more fat
splashing.
General
Clean the oven shelves, meat tin and the oven door while they are still
slightly warm. This way you can easily remove any splashes and spills.
