Space For Fixing

The cooker can be close fitted below hotplate level. This
requires a minimum distance of 1085mm between cupboard
units of hotplate height.
The wall behind the cooker between the hotplate and 450mm
above, and across the width of the cooker, must be an
incombustible material such as ceramic wall tiles.
Follow the diagrams below for guidance on fitting. Take note
of all dimensions.

If your appliance is to be fitted close to a corner ensure that
there is a clearance of 135mm minimum. This will enable you
to fully open the door and allow removal of oven shelves.

MAINS INLET ON

APPLIANCE

Connection to the cooker should be made with an approved appliance flexible connection
to BS 669. Hoses connected to the LPG models should be suitable for LPG and capable of
withstanding 50mbar pressure. A length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length of
hose chosen should be such that when the cooker is in situ, the hose does not touch the
floor.
The temperature rise of areas at the rear of the cooker that are likely to come in contact
with the flexible hose do not exceed 70˚C.
After installation, check for soundness.
The supply pressure can be checked at the grill injector. Access to the injector is by first
removing the baffle at the front of the grill compartment and then the burner.

The cooker is designed to match the depth of
standard 600mm worktops. An adaptor backplate
should, therefore, be fitted within the 160 x
250mm shaded area shown, pointing towards the
left to allow the cooker to be pushed fully to the
wall. If a forward facing backplate is used, it must
be chased into the wall.

Electrical Connection

10

Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily
accessible wall socket which is adjacent to, and not more than 1.25m away from the
appliance and capable of electrical isolation.

Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced
with a suitable plug as outlined below.

Note: The removed plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore
be properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a
supply
socket – with the obvious consequent danger.

If the fitted plug is removed
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below to a three pin plug of not
less than 13 amp capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a 3
amp fuse which is approved to B.S. 1362.

Important: The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance
are coloured in
accordance with the following code:

GREEN AND YELLO W – EARTH
BLUE – NEUTRAL
BROWN – LIVE

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with
the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:– The
wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green
and yellow. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be
connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. When wiring the plug,
ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to
tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. As the appliance must be earthed, do not
use 2-pin
sockets outlets, if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be
carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of
the same size i.e. 0.75mm

2

cross sectional area.

If a moulded plug is fitted
In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied a 3 amp ASTA approved fuse to
BS1362 must be fitted.
NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing
the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been
obtained and fitted. A new fuse cover can be obtained from your local Electricity
Retailer. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured marks
or inserts in the base of the plug.

WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

CONNECT TO A 230-240V A.C. SUPPLY ONLY.

Operational Checks

Fit the pan supports and remove any packaging.

With reference to the user’s instructions:

1. Check that the hotplate and grill burners ignite correctly and burn with a
steady flame. Check for a steady flame at the low (small flame symbol)
setting.

2. Check that with each main oven set to Mark 9, the burner ignites at a low
rate, and then increases to full rate within 60 seconds. Leave the oven full
on with the door closed for 10 minutes and then check that the flame
reduces when the control is turned to the E setting.

3. Check operation of timer and main oven lights.

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, o r more effective ventilation, for example increasing the
level of mechanical ventilation where present.

Automatic Cooking Hints

Rules to follow
when cooking
automatically

The fan oven can be programmed to cook automatically.

1. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the
oven, ideally straight from the refrigerator.

2. Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed thoroughly
before it is put into the oven.

3. The automatic timer should not be used in hot weather
because of the possible growth of food poisoning
organisms.

4. NEVER use the automatic timer to re-heat cook chill dishes.

5. Never leave food in the oven to cool slowly after cooking.
Serve immediately or remove to cool and then refrigerate.

6. Dishes containing left over cooked meat or poultry, for
example, shepherds pie, dishes containing eggs, cooked
rice or seafood should not be cooked automatically if there
is to be a delay period.

7. Warm food should never be placed in the oven if there is to
be delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat and
vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible or
refrigerated until loading the oven.

8. Try to set the stop time for a period beyond your
anticipated return.

9. DO NOT leave food for an automatic programme in a warm
oven. i.e one that has just been used manually.

10. It is advisable to cover dishes where possible either with a
lid or foil to protect the food from contamination, to keep
it moist and to prevent the transfer of odours. If the food is
to be served golden brown, it may be left uncovered or
have the lid removed for a quick browning before serving.

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

12. To prevent discolouration of certain fruit and vegetables
such as apples, pears, turnips & parsnips, a little lemon juice
should be added to the cooking liquid.

13. Potatoes should be par - boiled or brushed with fat to
prevent discolouration during delay time.

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

MINUTE MINDER
Here you can set a time period of up to 23 hours and 59 minutes that will count down.
When it reaches zero the timer will bleep.
e.g. If you set 20 minutes, the timer will start bleeping 20 minutes later.

COOK TIME
Cook time is the actual length of time for which, the timer will switch the oven(s) on as
part of an “Automatic Cooking” programme.
e.g . If you set 2 hours, the food will be cooked for 2 hours.

STOP TIME
The time of day at which you want an automatic cooking programme to e n d

.
e.g. If you set a cook time for 2 hours, and stop time of 11:00. The timer will switch
the oven(s) on at 9:00 and turn the oven(s) off at 11:00. You will hear a bleep at 11:00
to indicate that the automatic cooking programme has finished.

Notes

- When setting an automatic cooking programme you will need to set the oven
control(s) to the required temperature(s) when you set the timer.

- If an automatic cooking programme has been set the oven(s) will only operate
during the pre-programmed time.

The Griddle is O N LY to be used over the two simmer/auxiliary
burners.
A non-stick griddle is supplied for use over the two simmer
(auxiliary) burners on the right hand side of the hob. The griddle
must be positioned on the top of the pan support, with the
locating legs on the underside engaged on the pan support
fingers. The griddle should N O T

be placed directly on top of the
simmer burners. To protect the non-stick coating never use metal
cooking utensils as they may scratch. Wooden or heat resistant
plastic utensils may be used. Under no circumstances must the
griddle be used over any other hotplate.

The griddle may be used with either or both of the simmer
burners on, depending on the food being cooked. The griddle
can be positioned with the ridged portion at the front or at the
rear.

* Slide one side of the handle into the slot in the pillar on the

Griddle. (ensure that the handle is held at approximately 40˚
from vertical).

* gently squeeze the opposite side of the handle and locate into

the slot in the pillar.

* Take care when lifting and fitting to avoid contact with the

Griddle or pillars as they will be very hot.

Adjacent to the hotplates is a warming zone which can be
used for a wide range of non-cooking tasks associated
with the preparation of meals. It provides a gentle heat
surface and can achieve a surface temperature of 120˚C.
The hot zone operates at a higher temperature than the
rest of the warming zone and is specially designed for
keeping coffee hot as well as gravy , custard or other
sauces. The warming zone warning neon illuminates on
the control panel if the warming zone control is operated.
To warm plates on the warming zone, simply place your
plates on the warming zone and turn the control knob to
the O N position. Plates should not be placed on the hot
zone.

If any crack should appear on the hob glass, isolate the
cooker immediately from the mains supply. Ne ver us e a ny

Conventional Oven

The oven has different heat zones – the thermostat settings refer
to the temperature on the middle shelf; above this shelf it is hotter
and below it is cooler. Two straight shelves provide six possible
cooking levels enabling full use of the different temperatures
inside the oven.

Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent if from being pulled out
too far when attending to food. Shelves are removed from the
oven by pulling them out to the stop and then lifting them at the
front to withdraw.

1. Check that the electricity supply is switched on.

2. Place oven shelves in the chosen positions (refer to cooking
charts).

3. Push in and turn the oven control knob fully anti-clockwise.
Sparking will continue until the burner is lit.

4. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting (refer
to cooking chart). There is a delay of about one minute
whilst the safety device operates before the burner comes
on full.

5. To turn off , turn the control knob fully clockwise to the
symbol

Never place dishes on the oven base over the burner.
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven – this should
cease after a short period of use.

Anything requiring long slow cooking such as casseroles and rich
fruit cakes can be put into a cold oven. Satisfactory results can also
be obtained with creamed mixture, rich pastries or yeast mixtures,
but for perfection we recommend preheating the oven for about
15 minutes.

The maximum weight of turkey that can be accommodated is
25lbs (11.5kg) provided it is of suitable shape.

It is important to check that the bird DOES NOT overhang the
burner at the back of the oven.

Fan Oven

The left hand oven is a fanned gas oven. In a fan oven the air
circulates around the oven providing an even temperature on
all the shelf positions. Due to the circulation of hot air, the fan
oven does not require preheating, except for certain delicate
dishes.

Two shelves provide six possible cooking levels. Each shelf has
a safety stop to prevent it from being pulled out too far when
attending to food. Shelves are removed from the oven by
pulling them out to the stop and then lifting them at the front
to withdraw.
A heat shield is provided for one oven shelf and should always
be fitted when the shelf is used in the lower two positions. This
shield can be removed for cleaning.

Since the fan oven heats up food more quickly than a
conventional oven, preheating the oven is often unnecessary.
However, for foods such as bread, scones and Y orkshire
pudding the oven should be preheated for about 15 minutes
at the gas mark you require for cooking.

Ensure that when selecting shelf positions, you leave enough
space around the food to allow air to circulate. F or best
results use the following guide:–

One shelf – any shelf position.

Two shelves – positions 2 and 4.

Shelf position 1 is at the top and shelf position 6 is at the

The maximum weight of poultry that can be accommodated
is 11.5kg (25 lbs) of suitable shape.
It is important to check that the bird DOES NOT overhang
the burner at the back of the oven.

It is vitally important to strictly adhere to the basic
principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the
possibility of bacterial growth.

1. If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it
in clean container as quickly as possible.

2. Completely thaw frozen food in the refrigerator before
re-heating.

3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the
hotplate or in a hot oven, Mk. 6, and then serve
immediately.

4. Only re-heat food once.

These should always be placed in a pre-heated oven ideally
on the first or second shelf position. Follow the packet
instructions for cooking time.

If using Aluminium Fo il:

1. Remember that it is important to increase the cooking
time by one third.

2. Never allow the foil to touch the sides of the oven.

3. Never cover the oven interior with foil.

4. Never cover the oven shelves with foil.

The ‘E’ setting on the oven thermostat can be used for slow
cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short
periods.

1. All dishes cooked by the ‘E’ setting should be cooked for
a minimum 6 hours. They will ‘hold’ at this setting for a
further hour but marked deterioration in appearance will
be noticed in some cases.

2. Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at Mk. 6 for
30 minutes before turning to the ‘E’ setting and never be
cooked lower than the middle shelf position.

3. Joints of meat over 6 lbs (2.7kg) and poultry over 4 lbs
8oz (2kg) should not be cooked using the ‘E’ setting.

4. Always stand covered joints on a rack over the meat tin
to allow good air circulation.

5. A meat thermometer should be used when cooking pork
joints and poultry. The internal temperature of the food
should reach at least 88oC.

6. This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and stuffed
poultry.

7. Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil
before putting in the oven.

8. Cover casseroles with foil and then the lid to prevent loss
of moisture.

9. Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.

10. Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small pieces.

11 . Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of the

cooking time.

12 . Use the zones of heat in the oven, e.g. meringues and

milk puddings can be cooked lower in the oven whilst
other dishes requiring greater heat can be cooked above
them.

13 . Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and

should be included in day cooking sessions, when they
can be observed from time to time.

14 . Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of

ten minutes after soaking, before inclusion in any dish.

Slow Cook / Warming Oven

The lower right hand electric oven provides gentle heat suitable for slow
cooking, keeping food warm or warming plates. It is necessary to preheat
the oven if it is to be used for keeping food warm.

Turn the control clockwise to the ON position and allow to preheat for
20 minutes before placing food in the oven. If food is to be kept moist
then it is important to cover the dishes and plates to prevent the food
from drying out. This can be done using aluminium foil if the dish does
not have a lid. DO NOT use clingfilm as it cannot withstand the heat
produced in the oven. Some foods are best left uncovered if you wish to
keep the food dry and crisp. Do not add gravy to plated meals until
serving. Carved meat should be placed on one plate and covered, adding
just a tablespoon of gravy to keep it moist. When keeping plated meals
warm it is recommended that the food is placed on hot rather than cold
plates.
Slow cooking has always been the best way to prepare a nutritious hot
meal with the minimum of preparation and maximum time away from the
kitchen.
Simply turn the slow cooker control clockwise to the ON position and
preheat for 20 minutes. The neon will illuminate. Always put the prepared
cooking pot centrally on the base of the oven. F ollow the following
guidelines for best results.

1. Cooking time will vary depending on the size and shape of meat

or poultry.

2. The maximum capacity of ovenproof dish should be no more than

2.5 litres (4.5 pints). NOTE: The more you fill the dish / pot the
longer it will take to cook.

3. Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil before

putting in the oven and for best results and to give more colour to
meat or poultry, fry the meat to brown and add to stock which is
hot.

4. All meat or poultry recipes need a minimum of 5 hours to cook.

5. Make sure all frozen ingredients are well thawed out. Always

ensure frozen poultry has thoroughly defrosted in a refrigerator
and all ice crystals have melted.

6. Cut root vegetables into small pieces, as they take longer to cook

than meat. If possible they should be gently sauteed for 2 - 3
minutes before slow cooking.

7. Ensure that root vegetables are always put at the bottom of the

pot and immersed in the cooking liquid.

8. A meat thermometer should be used when cooking pork joints

and poultry. The internal temperature of the food should reach at
least 88

o

C.

9. Stuffed meat or stuffed poultry are unsuitable for slow cooking.

10. Cover casseroles with foil or a lid to prevent loss of moisture.

11. Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of the cooking time.

12 . Egg and fish dishes need only 1 - 5 hours cooking and should be

include in day cooking sessions, when they can be observed from
time to time.

13 . Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of 10

minutes after soaking before inclusion in any dishes.

The slow cook / warming oven can also be used for warming plates. Place
plates on the base of the oven.
China plates and serving dishes should be placed in the oven before it is
switched on, otherwise the sudden change in temperature may result in
damage.

Care and Cleaning

Cleaning Method

Cloth rung out in hot soapy water.
Stubborn stains can be removed with a cream, paste, liquid
cleaner or by rubbing with fine steel wool, soap pads.
Check that the cleaning agent is approved by the Vitreous
Enamel Development Council.

Use a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water. Alternatively
use a propriety stainless steel cleaner obtainable from
household stores or Belling Spares Department; call 01709
579907 and quote Belling 005.

W ash with a cloth rung out in hot soapy water only.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVES.

NOTE: Care must be taken to prevent cleaning materials, water, or
dirt, from entering and blocking the burner ring ports.

Wipe with a cloth rung out in hot soapy water.
A fine steel wool soap pad or a chrome or stainless steel cleaner
may be used.

In the interests of both safety and hygiene your Belling cookcenter
needs to be kept clean. A build up of grease or fat from cooking
could cause a fire hazard.
WARNING ! For your own safety always switch off your
cooker at the main switch and allow to cool before
cleaning.
Never use excessive amounts of water to clean your cooker, and
remember that your cooker is heavy. Take care when pulling it out
for access.
Clean the cooker regularly and wipe spills soon after they
occur to prevent them from becoming burnt on. Never use
biological washing powder, caustic cleaners, harsh
abrasives, scouring pads, aerosol cleaners or oven
chemical cleaners of any kind.
To move the cooker forward, open the grill door and with both
hands positioned under the roof of the compartment, lift and pull
forward. Replace by pushing the cooker backwards. Check that the
cooker is level. Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not
damaged.

Care and Cleaning

The main oven back and side linings are coated with a special
enamel which has a continuous cleaning action. The higher the
oven temperature the more effective the action. In most cases
this cleaning operation will proceed during normal cooking.
However, if high temperatures are not used regularly, it may be
necessary to run the oven empty at mark 8 for a couple of
hours, but this must be conducted without using the
hob.
WARNING! Under these conditions the surfaces may become
hotter than usual and children should be kept away.
If desirable, they can be washed with warm soapy water
followed by a rinse. The surface coating, which can be
recognised by its matt finish, may be damaged by using
aerosol oven cleaners, oven pads, detergents or scouring
powders, and their use is not recommended.
Whilst normal cleaning can be carried out with these panels in
place, they can be removed for cleaning manually, or for
cleaning the rest of the oven interior. First remove the oven
shelves. The panels can then be removed by undoing the fixing
screws.
T o clean these ‘cookclean’ panels by hand, scrub them with a
nylon pad or brush, using warm soapy water. Rinse in cold
water and ‘blot’ them dry with a paper towel or sponge. Do
not rub the surface too dry as this can damage the ‘cookclean’
finish. After cleaning replace the linings immediately and heat
the oven at maximum setting for 30 minutes to prevent
deterioration of the enamel.

Grill burner

Hotplate burner.

If all burners fail to ignite:
Check that sparks appear at the burners; a
clicking noise should be heard.
If not

Check that the electricity supply is turned on.
If the electricity supply has failed, the hotplate
burners and grill can be lit by a match.

If only one burner fails to ignite:

Check that the burner is dry and that spillage of
food or cleaning fluid remains are not affecting
the ignitor or burner ports.
Clean away any debris with a dry nylon brush
such as an old toothbrush. If a wire wool pad
has been used for cleaning around the burner
ensure the ignitor is free from any stray strands.
Any water on the burner should be dried with a
cloth or kitchen towel.

On hotplate burners make sure that all the
burner parts are correctly seated on the burners.
