Hob & Cooker Safety
i
!!!
Always ensure that pan bases are dry, and flat before
using them on the hob.
Always position pans over the centre of the burner,
and turn the handles to a safe position so they cannot
be knocked or grabbed.
Always use pans which are no smaller than 100mm
(4”), or larger than 250mm (10”).
Always take care when removing food from the oven
as the area around the cavity may be hot.
Always use oven gloves when handling any utensils
which have been in the oven as they will be hot.
Always make sure that the oven shelves are resting in
the correct position in between two runners. Do not
place the oven shelves on top of the highest runner,
this will lead to spillage and injury if the baking tray, or
dish falls.
Never use double pans, rimbased pans, old or
misshapen pans, or any pan which is not stable on a
flat surface.
Never leave cooking fat, or oil, unattended.
Never use commercial simmering aids, or heat
diffusers, as they create excessive heat and can
damage the surface of the hob.
Never use the hob for any other purpose than cooking
food.
Plastic cooking utensils can melt if they come into
contact with a warm hob. Never leave them close to,
or on top of, the hob.
Never leave the burner alight without a pan covering it.
This causes a fire hazard.
Do not place items on the door while it is open.
Do not wrap foil around the oven shelves, or allow it to
block the flue.
Do not drape tea towels near the oven while it is on,
this will cause a fire hazard.
Do not pull heavy items, such as turkeys, or large
joints of meat, out from the oven on the shelf, as they
may overbalance and fall.
Do not use this appliance to heat anything other than
food items, and do not use it for heating the room.
WARNING: Parts of
the appliance may
become hot while in
use, always make sure
that children are
supervised when they
are near to the
appliance.
Always make sure that the
burner caps, rings and
pansupports are correctly
placed. This will prevent pans
becoming unstable while in
use, and ensure an
uninterrupted gas flow.
Call Customer Care for
a service engineers visit
if:
You find over a period of
time that the gas oven
becomes hotter at a
particular temperature - the
thermostat may need
replacing.
The cooling fan fails to
work.
Chip Pan Fires
What causes a chip pan fire?
Chip pan fires start when oil of fat overheats and catches fire,
or when oil or fat spills on to the cooker because the pan has
been filled too high.
They can also start when wet chips are put into hot oil,
making it bubble up and overflow.
Preventing a chip pan fire
Never fill the pan more than a third full with oil or fat.
Never leave the pan alone with the heat on - even for a few
seconds.
Dry chips before putting them in the pan.
Never put chips in the pan if the oil has started smoking.
Turn off the heat and leave the oil to cool down, or else it
could catch fire.
In the event of a chip pan fire
If your chip pan does catch fire - don’t panic, and don’t move
the pan. Serious burns are often caused by picking up the
pan and running outside with it.
If it is safe to do so, and you don’t have to reach across the
pan, turn off the heat.
Never throw water, or use a fire extinguisher.
If you can, drape a damp cloth or towel over the pan to
smother the flames.
Leave the pan to cool down for at least half an hour.
If you can’t control the fire yourself, close the door, get out
and tell everybody else to get out.
Call the fire brigade. Don’t go back inside whatever the
reason.

If your hob has an ignition button or switch on the
fascia, press it in until your burner lights.
If your hob has automatic ignition it will spark next to
the burner when you push in the control knob.
To simmer, turn the control knob to the small flame
symbol. This will ensure that the flame is just large
enough to gently heat the contents of the pan.
To turn off, turn the control knob clockwise to the ‘off’
position.
Always make sure that your pans are place correctly on
the burners as shown, and do not allow the flame to
extend over the base of the pan.
Models with thermocouples:
ignition as above, but:
Hold the control knob in for 15 seconds. Do not hold
the control knob in for any longer than 15 seconds. If
the burner fails to light within this time, release the
control knob and wait one minute before attempting to
re-ignite.

Energy Saving
Position pans centrally over the elements.
Only heat the amount of liquid you need.
Once liquids have been brought to the boil, reduce the
heat setting to a simmer.
Consider using a pressure cooker if possible.
Vegetables in small pieces will cook quicker.
Use a pan which is a close match to your element size.
Smaller elements are ideal for simmering and stewing
in smaller pans, while the larger elements are ideal for
frying and boiling
In the event of a power
failure, or the ignition
not working:
Push in and turn the
control knob to start the
gas, then hold a lighted
match or taper to the
burner until it lights.
Use flat based pans
which are the correct
size for your burners
and suitable for your
hob type.
We recommend the
following sizes:
100mm or 4” min.
250mm or 10” max.
Smaller or larger pan
sizes may lead to slower
cooking times.

Note:
Using a gas appliance results in the production of heat
and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Always
ensure that the room is well ventilated: keep natural
ventilation holes open, or install a mechanical ventilation
device (i.e. an extractor hood). Prolonged use of the
appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example
opening a window, or more effective ventilation such as
increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where
present.
Using Your Grill

Before you start grilling. . . .
Before you use the grill, make sure you have placed the
grill shelf in the position you need as once the grill is on
you may injure yourself if you try to move the shelf.
Do not close the door while the grill is in use.
Turn the selector control knob to the heat setting you
require.
To switch off, return the control knob to the ‘off’
position.
The cooling fan will come on during use, and may
continue to run for some time afterwards.
To adjust your results, you can turn the grid over, or
remove it altogether.
If your grill is a dual grill:
The dual grill uses all of the top element and is ideal for
grilling large quantities of food.
The single grill uses part of the element only, and is
better suited to grill smaller amounts of food.
The grill pan
This appliance comes with a grill pan, grill pan handle and
a grid.
The handle of the grill pan is detachable to allow you to
remove it while the pan is in use, this stops it from
getting hot.

Never cover the grill pan or grill grid with foil, or allow fat
to build up in the grill pan, as this creates a fire hazard.
Using Your Main Oven
i
The main oven may be controlled by the programmer (see
The Programmer/Clock for details).
The programmer, if fitted, must be set to manual before it
can be used, or programmed.
Switching on the fanned / conventional oven
Use the main oven control to turn your oven on, and
select your temperature.
Your appliance may be fitted with a thermostat indicator
light. If it is, then this will come on to show that the oven
is heating, and once the temperature is achieved, it will
go out.
To switch off the main oven, simply turn the control knob
back to the ‘ ‘ position.
The cooling fan will come on during use, and may con-
tinue to run for some time afterwards.
Switching on the multifunction oven (if applicable)
Use the function control knob to select the function you
wish to use - see the functions table for details.
Note: You can change function during cooking if you
wish, as long as the oven is in manual mode.
Turn the temperature control knob to the temperature
you wish to use.
Your appliance may be fitted with a thermostat indicator
light. If it is, then this will come on to show that the oven
is heating, and once the temperature is achieved, it will
go out.

back to the ‘ ‘ position.
The cooling fan will come on during use, and may contin-
ue to run for some time afterwards.
Important: Never
place food, or dishes on
the base of the main
oven, the element is
here and it will cause
over heating.

the base is cooked while the fan allows the air to circulate around the filling
- without being too intensive.
Fanned Oven Guide
Some adjustment will have to be made to conventional
cooking temperatures.
The table below shows conventional cooking
temperatures, fanned temperatures and gas marks.
For optimum results using the fanned oven setting,
conventional temperatures need to be converted to the
fanned oven temperatures.
For example and item which would cook at 180˚C will
now cook at the fanned oven temperature of 160˚C.
This is a high efficiency oven, you may notice an
emission of steam when the door is opened.
When cooking chilled or frozen foods, use the
recommended cooking times and temperature on the
packaging. Always make sure the food is piping hot
throughout before serving.
There are no zones of heat, and no flavour transfer
when using a fanned oven - allowing you to cook a
greater variety of foods together.
If you are cooking on more than one shelf, you may
need to slightly increase the cooking time.
Always make sure that there is enough space between
dishes, to allow food to rise, and to air to circulate.

Cooking Guide
Pre-heating
To get the best results from your oven, we recommend
pre-heating for around 5 to 15 minutes before placing
your dishes in. This is especially important for items
which are chilled, frozen, batter based, yeast based or
whisked sponges.
If you are using a fanned function, you should still preheat but for a shorter time.
The items in the cooking guide below are based on a
pre-heated oven, but can be adjusted to take into account
personal taste.
Oven and bakeware
Always use high quality trays and tins for cooking. Poor
quality tins and trays can warp in the oven producing
uneven results.
Never use dishes which are cracked, damaged or not
oven proof as heating may lead to shattering inside the
oven.

Roasting Guide
Roasting times depend on the weight, shape and texture
of the meat and personal preference. In order to
calculate the roasting time, weigh the meat or poultry,
including the stuffing, and follow the times given
below.
Meat joints (including chicken) should be roasted at
180 - 200˚C Conventional/ 160 - 180˚C Fanned for
20 - 30 mins per 450g/1lb, plus 20 minutes on shelf
position 2.
Frozen meat must be thoroughly thawed before
cooking. For large joints, it is advisable to thaw
overnight.
Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before
cooking. The time required depends on the size of the
bird - eg: a large turkey may take up to 48 hours to
thaw.
When cooking stuffed meat or poultry, calculate the
cooking time from the total weight of the meat plus the
stuffing.
Cooking joints in foil, covered roasters, lidded
casseroles, or roasting bags will help to reduce meat
shrinkage, give a more moist result and may reduce fat
splashing. However, a slightly longer cooking time will be
required, add 5 - 10 minutes per 450g (1lb) to the
calculated cooking time. When using roasting bags do
not exceed the temperatures recommended by the
manufacturer, and do not allow the roasting bag to
touch the sides or top of the oven.
Use of a trivet with the roasting tin will reduce fat
splashing during open roasting, and will help to keep the
oven interior clean.
The use of a roasting tin larger then that supplied is not
advised, as this may impair performance and lead to
extended cooking times.
Roasting Guide
Roast turkey
Roasting turkey perfectly involves cooking two different
types of meat - the delicate light breast meat, which
must not be allowed to dry out, and the darker leg meat,
which takes longer to cook.
The turkey must be roasted long enough for the legs to
cook, so frequent basting is necessary. The breast meat
can be covered once browned.
Turkey should be roasted at 180 - 200˚C
Conventional/ 160 - 180˚C Fanned for 20 - 30 mins
per 450g/1lb, plus 20 minutes.
The turkey can be open roasted, breast side down, for
half of the cook time, and then turned over for the
remainder of the cooking time.
If the turkey is stuffed, add 5 minutes per 1lb to the
cooking time.
If roasting turkey covered with foil, add 5 minutes per
1lb to the cooking time.
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a fine skewer into
the thickest part of the thigh. If the juices run clear, the
turkey is cooked. If the juices are still pink, the turkey
will need longer cooking. Always make sure that the
turkey is cooked properly before serving.
Turkey Roasting times.
Most Turkeys are measured by the kilogram. Timing should
be calculated in either of these ways:
40 minutes per 1kg plus 10 minutes per 1/4 kg.
or
20 minutes per 1lb, plus 20 minutes.
The maximum size Turkey for this appliance is: 20lbs
approximately 9kgs.
Please do not attempt to roast a Turkey larger than this, as
the results cannot be guaranteed.

Cleaning your Gas Hob
!!!

g
i
Sometimes when a hob is not working well, it is because
it needs cleaning.
Enamel parts
Use a mild cream cleaner for example ‘Cif’. Stubborn
marks can be removed with a soap filled pad.
Stainless steel surfaces
Only use a clean cloth wrung out with warm, soapy
water and dried off with a soft cloth. For stubborn
marks use a specialist stainless steel cleaner.
Do not use steam cleaners.
Sharp implements and objects can mark the surface of
stainless steel, however they do become less noticeable
in time.
Cast iron parts
Ensure the parts have fully cooled and scrape off any
stubborn marks, and bits of food with a plastic, or
wooden cooking implement. Rinse in warm soapy
water and dry with a tea towel.
Do not clean in a dishwasher.
If you notice any rusting on your griddle, or
pansupports, simply clean in warm soapy water, then
re-season.
Burner caps and skirts
The slots in the burner skirts where the flames burn
should be cleared of deposits.
Clean with a nylon brush, rinse and then dry
thoroughly. There may be brownish coloured markings
on your burners, these are carbon deposits or fat stains
and can be removed using a soap filled pad.
Do not put burners in the dishwasher or soak them.
Using dishwasher powders, washing up liquids and
caustic pastes can damage the burners.
Burner caps and heads must be repositioned correctly
so that they sit squarely on to the hob as shown on the
left.
This is particularly important with stainless steel models
as failure to reposition the caps correctly may result in
discolouration of the stainless steel around the burners.
Always allow your
appliance to cool
down, and switch off
the electricity before
you clean any part of
it.
Baby oil can be used to
restore stainless steel
finishes - but only use a
few drops. Don’t use
cooking oils as they can
contain salts which will
damage the metal.
Don’t use:
undiluted bleaches,
products containing
chlorides, wire wool or
abrasive cleaners on
aluminium, stainless
steel, or plastic/painted
parts they can damage
the appliance. Nylon
pads can also be
unsuitable
Seasoning the
griddle:
Pour a drop of unsalted
cooking oil onto the
cooking side of the
griddle, use kitchen roll
to cover the griddle
evenly. Olive oil is not
suitable for seasoning.
Regular seasoning
prevents rust.
Only use a clean cloth wrung out in hot soapy water.
