Please note the cooling fan fitted to this appliance is an integral part of its safety and functionality. When the appliance is installed care must be taken that the cooling fans performance is not impeded by any objects coming into contact with it. (Installation pipes, leads etc) Care must also be taken that there is sufficient air flow at the rear of the appliance for the cooling fan to run at its optimum efficiency. (Particularly Built In appliances) See clearance dimensions in the installation section of the booklet. During use the Appliance must never be disconnected from the Mains supply as this will seriously affect the safety and performance of the appliance, particularly in relation to surface temperatures becoming hot and gas operated parts not working efficiently. The cooling fan is designed to run on after the control knob has been switched off to keep the front of the appliance and the controls cool until the appliance has naturally cooled itself.

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 that have been in the oven as they will be hot.
Always make sure that the oven shelves are resting in the correct position between two runners. Do not place the oven shelves on top of the highest runner, as this is not stable and can lead to spillage or injury.
Always use the Minute Minder (if fitted) if you are leaving the oven unattended
- this reduces the risk of food burning.
Do not place items on the door while it is open.
Do not wrap foil around the oven shelves or allow foil to block the flue.

Follow the instructions given on the next page when operating these grills.
Preheating
For best results, preheat the grill for 3 - 5 minutes.
Aluminium foil
Using aluminium foil to cover the grill pan, or putting items wrapped in foil under the grill can create a fire hazard, and the high reflectivity can damage the grill element.
Detachable grill pan handle
Place the handle over the edge of the grill pan, at the narrow side edges. Slide the handle to the centre, and locate between the handle position indicators.
The handle should be removed from the pan during grilling, to prevent overheating.

Grilling in the top oven-(900 only) Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the grill is used, young children should be kept away.
The top oven grill is a fully variable dual element grill.
To switch on the grill
Open the top oven / grill door. Turn the top oven control knob past
the oven temperature markings to either the single economy grill symbol, or the dual grill symbol.
The grill regulator -
must then be switched
on. This enables variation of the heat output from the grill on either the single grill or dual grill settings.
The dual grill uses all of the top element, and the single economy grill setting uses the inner part of the element only.
Important: The door must be kept
open when the grill is used. To switch off, return the control knob to
the “off” position.
Note that the grill will not operate if the top oven is switched on.
Using the top oven grill
For grilling smaller quantities of food the (single element) economy grill can be utilised. This grill function can be controlled between settings 1 and 8.
For grilling larger quantities of food, the (dual element) full grill can be utilised. The full grill can also be controlled between settings 1 and 8.
When using the grill in the top oven, the speed of grilling can be controlled by use of either the variable control or by selecting higher or lower shelf position.
For toasting, and for grilling foods such as bacon, sausages or steaks, use a higher shelf position.
For thicker foods such as chops or chicken joint pieces, use a middle to low shelf position.
The cooling fan
When the grill is switched on, you will hear the cooling fan come on - this keeps the fascia and control knobs of the appliance cool during grilling. The fan may continue to operate for a peri­od after the grill control has been switched off.

The grill / fanned grill settings use the inner element only.
Conventional grill
The door must be open when the conventional grill function is used­either fully open or using the door stop position-open the door about 75mm and it will hold open.
If the grill door is closed whilst the grill is in use,the grill will cycle on and off at a high temperature, causing the grill door to be come hot.
When using the door stop position for grilling, you can remove the grill pan handle by sliding it to the recess.
(i) Turn the (left) selector control knob to the conventional grill setting. (ii) Turn the oven temperature control knob to your desired temperature setting.

the fan grill setting.
(ii) Turnthe temperature control knob to
the desired temperature upto 230ÿC.
Fanned grilling may be faster than conventional grilling because air is being circulated around the food. Thin portions of food, such as bacon or fish fillets, may not need turning.
For best results, preheat the grill for 3 - 5 minutes.
Note that when grilling, the door must remain closed before and after grilling, and the temperature control must not exceed 230C
.
Grilling in the main oven
The speed of grilling can be controlled by selecting a higher or lower shelf position.
For toasting, and for grilling foods such as bacon, sausages or steaks, use a higher shelf position.

The top oven is a conventional oven Note: The top oven is not controlled by
the programmer.
To turn on the top oven
Turn the temperature control knob clockwise until the required temperature is selected.
The red thermostat indicator will come on until the selected temperature is reached, and then go off; it will turn on and off peri odica lly as the thermostat operates to maintain the selected temperature.
To switch off, return the top oven control knob to the off position.
Important: Never put items directly on the base of the oven, or cover the oven base with foil, as this may cause the element to overheat. Always position items on the shelf.
Top heat only

Preheating
The oven must be preheated when cooking frozen or chilled foods, and we recommend preheating for yeast mixtures, batters, soufflés, and whisked sponges.
Preheat the oven until the indicator light switches off for the first time, this will take up to 20 minutes depending on the temperature selected.
If you are not preheating the oven, the cooking times in the following guide may need to be extended, as they are based on a preheated oven.

USING THE TOP OVEN
Shelf positions
There are 2 shelf positions which are counted from the bottom of the oven upwards, so shelfposition 1 is the lowest.
When cooking frozen or chilled food, use the highest possible shelf position, while allowi ng some clearance between the food and the top element.
The oven shelf must be positioned with the upstand at the rear of the oven and facing up. Position baking trays and roasting tins on the middle of the shelves, and leave one clear shelf posi­tion between shelves, to allow for cir­culation of heat.
When using the top oven
As part of the cooking process, hot air is expelled through a vent at the top of the oven(s). When opening the oven door, care should be taken to avoid any possible contact with potentially hot air, since this may cause discomfort to peoplewithsensitive skin. Werecommend that you hold the underneath of the oven door handle.
