Installation Instructions
This appliance has been tested and certified by Advantica Technologies Ltd and
carries the C.E. Mark.
The installation must be in accordance with the current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations.
Unpacking After unpacking your cooker, make sure that you remove all the packing from the
grill compartment and ovens, and any stickers from the oven doors and the hob.
Examine your cooker for any damage. If there is any damage to your cooker or
anything is missing, please contact your supplier for advice.
Siting/Moving the Your cooker is heavy, so be careful when moving or positioning it. Do not try
Cooker to move the cooker by pulling on the doors or handles or control panel.
Your Belling electric cooker is designed to slot in between 600mm deep
cabinets spaced at least 915mm apart (DB9000E) or at least 1000mm apart
(DB1000E). It can also be used free-standing, with a cabinet to one side, in a
corner setting or with its back to a wall. However it must not be situated with
either side closer than 50mm to a combustible wall or cupboard that is higher
than the cooker.
The wall behind the cooker and 450mm above and across the width of the
cooker, should be of an incombustible material or easy clean surface such as
ceramic tiles. Please note, when positioning your cooker against a wall, ensure
there is sufficient clearance for the screw heads on the back panel.
This appliance can be of type X or type Y with regard to protection against
overheating of surrounding surfaces dependant on the location decided by the
user.
Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should be at least 650mm (25½") above
the cooker hob. We do not recommend positioning the cooker below wall
cupboards, as the heat and steam from the cooker may cause damage to the
cupboard and its contents.
Excess steam from the oven, vents out at the top back edge of the cooker, so
make sure that the walls behind and near the cooker are resistant to heat, steam
and condensation.
Your cooker must stand on a flat surface so that when it is in position the hob is
level. The cooker is fitted with rear wheels and will slide into position easily.
Movement of your cooker is most easily achieved by lifting the front, as follows.
Open the oven doors sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front
edge of the oven roofs, avoiding grill elements or oven furniture.
“DO NOT LIFT THE COOKER BY THE HANDLES”
Adjust the cooker at the rear to the required height, using the 2 jacking screws
situated behind the rear access cover and secure with the lock-nuts. Position the
cooker and adjust the height at the front with the 2 jacking screws situated at the
front underside. Check that the cooker is level by using a spirit level (adjusting the
jacking screws if necessary). It is important that the cooker is stable and level for
the overall cooking performance.
Whatever the position, remember to leave enough room for the cooker to be
pulled out for cleaning and service.

Installation Instructions
Connecting to Electrical For your own safety, we recommend that your cooker is installed by a suitably
Supply qualified person.
The cooker should be installed in accordance with the latest edition of the
IEE Regulations.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED!
The cooker must be connected to the correct electrical supply as stated on the
rating plate, through a suitable cooker control unit incorporating a double pole
switch having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles, adjacent to (but
not above) the cooker. We recommend that the cooker circuit is rated to 45
Amps with a minimum of 32 Amps.
We also recommend that 6mm² P.V.C. (minimum 4.0mm²-maximum 10.0mm²)
Insulated twin and earth cable is used to connect the cooker control unit.
The power supply cable should conform to BS6004
IMPORTANT:
For access to the mains terminal block and for supply cable connection, it is
necessary to remove the access cover situated at the bottom of the back panel.
The live and neutral positions are marked with the letters L and N respectively,
marked in front of the terminal block. The earth terminal is marked by the earth
symbol. Secure the mains cable using the cable clamp.
Connect the mains cable as follows:Live to terminal L.
Neutral to terminal N
Earth to the earth stud.
Ensure clamping nuts are tightened sufficiently. Allow sufficient cable length for
the cooker to be pulled out for cleaning, but do not let it hang closer than 50mm
(2”) to the floor. The cable can be looped if necessary, but make sure that it is not
kinked or trapped when the cooker is in position.
No part of the appliance (including clock/timer) will operate unless the mains
control unit is live and switched on.
Before you cook for the first time, we recommend that you turn on each element
and hotplate in turn to burn off any odors remaining from manufacture. Simply
operate each hotplate and the grill on maximum for a few minutes and each oven
for about 30 minutes.

For Your Own Safety
When used properly your Belling Cooker is completely safe, but as with any
cooker there are some precautions you must take in its use.
NEVER
Never allow anyone except an authorized Belling Service Agent to service or repair
your cooker.
Never remove any part of the cooker other than those intended in normal use, or
attempt to modify the cooker in any way.
Never use the cooker for commercial catering. It is designed for domestic use.
Never allow young children to operate or play with the cooker.
Never use a chip pan or deep fat fryer more than 1/3 full of oil, or use a lid while
frying and do not leave a fryer unattended while cooking.
Never line the shelves, floor, or sides of the ovens or grill with aluminum foil as
overheating and damage may result.
Never place anything which might catch fire, such as towels or tea towels, near to
the hotplates or over the flue outlet even when the cooker is not in use.
Never use an asbestos mat, trivet or rack of any kind under pans on any hotplate.
Never store anything that might catch fire in the oven, grill compartment or storage
compartment.
Never allow aluminum foil or plastic to touch any hotplate when it is hot.
Never store flammable liquids, aerosols, etc. in adjacent cabinetry.
Never dry clothes or place other items over or near to the hotplate or oven or grill
doors.
Never use large preserving pans or fish kettles across two hotplates as this will
damage the hob.
Never use cooker as a room heater.
Never leave hotplates switched on when not in use.
8
For Your Own Safety
ALWAYS
Always make sure you understand the controls prior to use.
Always take care when touching any part of the cooker that may be hot. Use good
quality dry oven gloves when removing or replacing food or dishes.
Always stand back when opening the oven door to allow any build-up of heat or
steam to disperse.
Always keep the oven and grill doors closed when not in use to prevent accidents.
Always make sure that the roof, sides, back panels and shelves are fitted correctly
before using the oven or grill.
Always keep your cooker clean, as a build-up of grease or fat from cooking may be
a fire hazard.
Always switch off at the mains supply before cleaning your cooker.
Always supervise children and pets, particularly when grilling, as exposed parts of
the grill may become hot.
Always place pans centrally over the hotplates and make sure that they are stable.
Always keep handles away from the edge of the hob and any other hotplates. For
added safety you should consider using a suitable hob guard.
Always make sure that all the controls are switched off when you finish cooking.
Always remember that your cooker may stay hot for a time even after you have
finished cooking.
Always keep ventilation slots at the rear of the cooker clear of obstructions.

Timer Instructions
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of day
2. Automatic cooking (Large oven only)
3. Minute minder
The large oven can be controlled by the automatic timer. When the timer has
been set, the small oven remains functional.
Hints on Automatic 1. Select foods which will take the same amount of time to cook and require
Cooking approximately the same temperature.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or about to finish
cooking on your return to the oven. This will ensure the food has not
cooled down and does not require re-heating before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven, ideally
straight from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed
thoroughly before being placed into the oven.
4. We advise that warm food should never be placed in the oven if there is to
be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat and vegetables
should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. We advise dishes containing left over cooked poultry or meat (eg.
Shepherds pie) should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay
period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so that the
delay start is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain foods (eg.
Poultry, joints etc.) the delay start should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period,
so it is best that these ingredients are added just before serving.
9. Foods that discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in
water (to which lemon juice has just been added) prior to placing the food
into the oven.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be overfilled. This will prevent boiling
over.
11. Foods should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the
loss of liquid during cooling. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
