To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
Before using the range make sure all the packing materials
have been removed.
Always keep the area around the range free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other ammable vapors and liquids.
NEVER leave any items on the range cooktop. The
n
hot air from an oven vent may ignite ammable
items and may increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst. Many
aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when
exposed to heat and may be highly ammable.
Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics will burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep
plastic items away from parts of the range that may become
warm or hot. DO NOT leave plastic items on the cooktop as
they may burn, melt or soften if left too close to a vent or a
lighted burner.
Storage should not be installed directly above a range. If
anything is stored above the range, it should be limited to
infrequently used items, which can be safely stored in an area
subjected to heat from a range. Temperatures may be unsafe
for some items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol
sprays.
Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the
range. Never allow children to play with packaging material.
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to
n
heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
overheating of the oven.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the
n
oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials
such as aluminium foil. Doing so blocks airow
through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminium foil linings may also trap
heat, causing a re hazard.
It is recommended that this appliance is serviced
n
annually by a qualied service engineer.
In Case of Fire
DO NOT use water on grease res. Never pick up
n
a aming pan. Turn the controls o. Smother a
aming pan on a cooktop burner by covering the
pan completely with a well tting lid or baking
tray. Isolate the power source, where it is safe to
do so, either at the control or isolator. If available
use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type re
extinguisher.
If re is in an oven pan, smother by closing oven door. Open
doors and windows or if a hood is installed turn it on to
remove smoke and odor.
DO NOT repair or replace any part of the appliance
n
unless specically recommended in this User
Manual. Always consult a qualied service engineer.
All other servicing should be done only by a qualied
technician, this may reduce the risk of personal injury and
damage to the range.
Never modify or alter the construction of a range by
removing levelling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets/
screws, or any other part of the product.
DO NOT leave children alone.
n
Babies, toddlers and young children should not be allowed
near the range at any time. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
DO NOT allow children to climb or play around the range.

n
cabinets above a range or on backguard of a range;
children climbing on the range to reach them could
be seriously injured.
Do not use the oven for storage.
n
This instruction is based on safety considerations.
Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, the
range storage drawer or near the cooktop burners. This
includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks,
plasticware and towels, as well as ammable liquids. DO NOT
store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance.
Flammable materials may explode and result in re or
property damage.
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury,
n
or death, make sure your range has been properly
grounded and always disconnect it from main power
supply before servicing.
DO NOT touch the cooktop cooking areas.
The marked cooking areas on the cooktop may be hot even
if they have been o for some time. Areas near the cooking
area may become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, DO NOT touch, or let clothing touch or other
ammable materials contact the cooktop or areas near the
cooking area until they have had enough time to cool. These
areas include the rangetop and rear vent.
DO NOT touch heating elements or interior surfaces
n
of ovens.
Oven heating elements may be hot though they are dark in
color. Interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough
to cause burns. During and after use, DO NOT touch, or
let clothing or other ammable materials touch heating
elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had
enough time to cool.
Other range surfaces that may become hot enough to cause
burns are the broiler compartment and oven vent at the rear
of the range.
Wear Suitable Clothing
Never wear loose-tting or hanging clothes while using the
range. Be careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets
over the cooktop. Flammable material could be ignited if
brought into contact with a hot surface and may cause severe
burns.
To eliminate the risk of burns or re by reaching over
n
heated surface units, cabinet storage, space located
above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced
by installing a range hood that projects horizontally
a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
Use Only Dry Potholders or Oven
Gloves
Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Never let a potholder touch hot heating elements.
DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a glove.
They might catch re if they touch a hot surface.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp gloves
might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface.
Never operate the range with wet hands.
Ovens
Use care when opening the door. Let hot air and
n
steam escape before removing or replacing food.
Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure
n
build up may make container burst and cause injury.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
n
ALWAYS place oven racks in their desired location
n
while the oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while
the oven is hot, do not let the potholders contact the
heating element in the oven.
Cooktop
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop
n
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers
may penetrate the broken cooktop and cause a risk
of electric shock. Contact a qualied technician
immediately.
Should a crack appear in the surface, disconnect the
n
range immediately from the supply and arrange for
its repair.
Never cook directly on the cooktop.
n
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat
n
settings - boilover may cause residue, that may
ignite.
Use the Right Size Pan
This appliance is equipped with cooktop zones of dierent
sizes. Use utensils with at bottoms. DO NOT use unstable
pans and position the handles away from the edge of the
cooktop.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will improve eciency.
NEVER leave cooktop zones unattended at high
n
settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking and
greasy spills may catch on re.
Protective Liners – DO NOT use aluminium foil to
n
line cooktop bowls or oven bottoms. Foil liners
may result in a risk of electric shock, or re and will
damage the enamel nish. Never allow aluminium
foil to contact the heating elements.
2
DO NOT use hotplate protectors, foil or hotplate
n
covers of any description. These may aect the safe
use of your hotplate burners and are potentially
hazardous to health.
Only certain types stainless steel, enamelled steel
n
pans or cast iron pans with enamelled bases are
suitable for induction cooktop cooking.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
n
over adjacent cooktop zones. If handles are left over
adjacent zones they will get hot and may burn.
General Safety Instructions
This appliance is provided with rollers to facilitate
n
movement during installation. The range should not
be moved after installation.
This appliance must be installed by a competent person in
accordance with the installation instructions. The installation
must comply with the relevant regulations and also the local
electricity supply company requirements.
This appliance is designed for domestic cooking only. Use for
any other purpose could invalidate any warranty or liability
claim.
This appliance should not be installed with any
n
ventilation system that blows air downward toward
the gas cooking appliance. This type of ventilation
system may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the gas cooking appliance resulting
in personal injury or unintended operation.
Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards can
be used.
The range should be serviced by a qualied service engineer
and only approved parts used. Have the installer show you
the location of the range circuit breaker. Mark it for easy
reference. Always allow the range to cool and then switch
o at the circuit breaker before cleaning or carrying out any
maintenance work, unless specied otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the range become hot with use and will
n
retain heat even after you have stopped cooking.
Take care when touching range, to minimize the
n
possibility of burns, always be certain that the
controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool
before attempting to clean the range.
Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used
n
to wipe spills on a hot surface, be careful to avoid
steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
DO NOT spray aerosols in the vicinity of the range
n
while it is in use.
DO NOT store or use combustible materials, or ammable
liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.
Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they will ignite
if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent
overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
NEVER leave a deep fry pan unattended. Always
n
heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans
should be only a maximum of one third full of fat.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over
when food is added. If you use a combination of oils
or fats in frying, stir them together before heating,
or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen
foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills or
overheating of foods when frying at high or medium high
temperatures. Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a
deep fry pan. Wait until the fat is cool.
When an oven is on, DO NOT use the top of the ue (the
round holes along the back of the range) for warming plates,
dishes, drying dish towels or softening butter.
When using an electrical appliance near the cooktop, be sure
that the cord of the appliance does not come into contact
with the cooktop.
Take care that no water seeps into the appliance.
Make sure that your kitchen is well ventilated at all times. Use
extractor fans or hoods when installed.
The range is designed for cooking foods only and must not
be used for any other purpose.
The oven should NOT be used for heating the kitchen, not
only does this waste fuel but the control knobs may become
overheated.
When the oven is on DO NOT leave the oven door open for
longer than necessary.
The specication of this range should not be altered.
This appliance is heavy, take care when moving it.
When the range is not in use ensure that the control knobs
are in the o position.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the range should be
kept clean at all times as a build up in fats and other food
stu could result in a re.
Always keep combustible wall coverings or curtains etc. a safe
distance away from your range.

The Cooktop
Use only pans that are suitable for induction cooktops. We
recommend stainless steel, enamelled steel pans or cast iron
pans with enamelled bases. Note that some stainless steel
pans are not suitable for use with an induction cooktop so
please check carefully before purchasing any cookware.
The controls for the induction hobs are shown in Fig. 2.2.
Pans made of copper, aluminium or ceramic are not suitable
for use on an induction cooktop. The kind of pan you use
and the quantity of food aects the setting required. Higher
settings are required for larger quantities of food.
Pots and pans should have thick, smooth, at bottoms
(Fig. 2.3). This allows the maximum heat transfer from the
cooktop to the pan, making cooking quick and energy
ecient. Never use a round-bottomed wok, even with a
stand.

The very best pans have bases that are very slightly curved
up when cold (Fig. 2.4). If you hold a ruler across the bottom
you will see a small gap in the middle. When they heat up the
metal expands and lies at on the cooking surface.
Make sure that the base of the pan is clean and dry to prevent
any residue burning onto the cooktop panel. This also helps
prevent scratches and deposits.
Always use pans that are the same size as (or slightly larger
than) the areas marked on the cooktop. Using a lid will help
the contents boil more quickly.
Always take care before touching the surface, even
n
when the cooktop is turned o. It may be hotter than
you think!
Cooktop Control Indications & Warnings

Pan Detector,
IMPORTANT: After use, switch o the cooktop element by its
control and DO NOT RELY on the pan detector.
If a cooking area is switched on and there is no pan in
place or if the pan is too small for the cooking area, then no
heat will be generated. The symbol [ ]will appear on the
cooktop control display; this is the “pan-missing symbol”.
Place a pan of the correct size on the cooking area and the
[ ] will disappear and cooking can begin. After 10 minutes
without detecting a pan the cooking zone will switch o
automatically.
Table 2.1 shows the minimum pan sizes recommended for
each cooking zone.
Note: Using pans with a base diameter smaller than those
recommended will result in a power reduction.
Residual Heat Indicator, H
After use, a cooking zone will remain hot for a while as heat
dissipates. When a cooking zone is switched o the residual
heat indicator symbol [H ], will appear in the display. This
shows that the cooking zone temperature is above 140 °F
5
(60 °C) and may still cause burns. Once the temperature has
dropped to below 140 °F (60 °C) the [ H ] will go out.
Automatic Heat-up, A
This function is available on all of the cooking zones. It
allows rapid heating to bring the selected cooking zone up
to temperature. The zone will maintain 100 % power (level
9) for the specied time and then automatically reduce
power to the preset level. The function is selected by turning
the control knob to the ‘A’ position. This can be selected by
turning the control knob momentarily counter-clockwise
from the zero position until the symbol [ A ] is shown on the
cooktop control display.

This means that when using zone A on Power Boost and then
switching zone B to Power Boost, the power to zone A will
reduce slightly. The last zone switched to Power Boost always
takes priority. Zones D and E work in the same way. Zone C is
not shared.
This is a built in safety device.
n
Deactivate the Power Boost function by turning the control
knob to a lower setting.
Overheat Function
This function identies when the temperature of the pan rises
rapidly and works to maintain a safe level of pan temperature.
It should not interfere with normal cooking.
Cookware with bases that become distorted (Fig. 2.3) when
heated may interfere with the operation of the Overheat
Function. This may result in damage to your cookware or
Induction Glass Cooktop.
Please remember not to leave the cooktop
n
unattended. Care should be taken to not allow your
cookware to boil dry. Damage to your cookware and
Induction Glass Cooktop may result.
Please read and follow the manufacturers’ instructions
carefully before using cookware on your induction cooktop.

of the broiler for two minutes. The broiler trivet can
be removed and the food placed on it while you are
waiting for the broiler to preheat.
Accessible parts may be hot when the broiler is in
n
use. Young children should be kept away.
The broiler pan trivet can be set to four dierent heights by a
combination of turning it back to front and turning it upside

Ovens
Please refer to Fig. 2.1.
References to ‘left-hand’ and ‘right-hand’ ovens apply as
viewed from the front of the appliance.
The left-hand oven is a multi-function oven, while the righthand oven is a convection oven.
throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts
quickly.
Convection cooking is particularly suitable for batch baking
on several shelves at one time and is a good ‘all-round’
function. It may be necessary to reduce the temperature by
approximately 25 °F/10°C for recipes previously cooked in a
conventional oven.
Multi-function Oven
As well as the oven fan and fan element, they are tted
with two extra heating elements, one visible in the top of
the oven and the second under the oven base. Take care to
avoid touching the top element and element deector when
placing or removing items from the ovens.
The multi-function oven has 3 main cooking functions:
convection, fan assisted and conventional cooking. These
functions should be used to complete most of your cooking.
The browning element and base heat can be used in the
latter part of the cooking process to ne tune the results to
your particular requirements.
Use convection broiling for all your broiling needs and defrost
to safely thaw small items of frozen food.
Table 2.4 gives a summary of the multi-function modes.
The multi-function ovens have many varied uses. We suggest
you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar
with each function. Remember – not all functions will be
suitable for all food types.
Please remember that all ranges vary – temperatures in your
new ovens may dier to those in your previous range.
7-Mode Multi-function Oven Settings
Defrost
This function operates the fan to circulate cold air
only. Make sure the temperature control is OFF and
that no heat is applied. This enables small items such
as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of meat, sh and poultry
to be defrosted.
Defrosting in this way speeds up the process and protects the
food. Pieces of meat, sh and poultry should be placed on a
rack, over a tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the rack
and tray after defrosting.
Defrost with the oven door closed.
Large items, such as whole chickens and joints should not be
defrosted in this way. We recommend this be carried out in a
refrigerator.
Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm oven or when
an adjoining oven is in use or still warm.
Make sure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are completely
defrosted before cooking.
Convection
This function operates the fan and the heating
element around it. An even heat is produced
Convection Broiling
This function operates the fan whilst the top element
is on. It produces a more even, less erce heat than
convection broiling. For best results, place the food to
be broiled, on a grid over a roasting tin, which should be
smaller than a convection broiling pan. This allows greater air
circulation. Thick pieces of meat or sh are ideal for
convection broiling, as the circulated air reduces the
erceness of the heat from the broiler chamber.
The oven door should be kept closed while convection
broiling is in progress, saving energy.
You will also nd that the food needs to be watched and
turned less. Preheat this function before cooking.
For best results we recommend that the broiling pan is not
located on the uppermost shelf.
Fan Assisted
This function operates the fan, circulating air heated
by the elements at the top and the base of the oven.
The combination of fan and conventional cooking
(top and base heat) makes this function ideal for cooking
large items that need thorough cooking, such as a large meat
roast.
It is also possible to bake on two shelves at one time,
although they will need to be swapped over during the
cooking time, as the heat at the top of the oven is greater
than at the base, when using this function.
This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an eye on the
food cooking until you have become accustomed to this
function.
Conventional (Top and Base Heat)
This function combines the heat from the top and
base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting
and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits.
Food cooked on the top shelf will brown and crisp faster
than on the lower shelf, because the heat is greater at the
top of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Fan Assisted’ function.
Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around
for even cooking. This means that foods requiring dierent
temperatures can be cooked together, using the cooler zone
in the lower half of the oven and hotter area to the top.
The exposed top element may cook some foods too quickly,
so we recommend that the food be positioned in the lower
half of the oven to cook. The oven temperature may also need
to be lowered.

Browning Element
This function uses the element in the top of the oven
only. It is a useful function for the browning or
nishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce,
shepherds pie and lasagne, the item to be browned being
already hot before switching to the top element.
Base Heat
This function uses the base element only. It will crisp
up your pizza or quiche base or nish o cooking the
base of a pastry case on a lower shelf. It is also a
gentle heat, good for slow cooking of casseroles in the
middle of the oven or for plate warming.
The Browning and Base heat functions are useful additions
to your oven, giving you exibility to nish o items to
perfection.
Convection Oven
The right-hand oven is a convection oven that circulates hot
air continuously, which means faster, more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a convection
oven are generally lower than a conventional oven. It may be
necessary to reduce the temperature by approximately
25 °F/10°C for recipes previously cooked in a conventional
oven.
NOTE: Please remember that all ranges vary so temperatures
in your new ovens may dier to those in your previous range.
