SERVICE INFORMATION Back Cover

CONTENTS

To help you make the best use of your cooker, PLEASE READ THIS BOOKLET CAREFULLY.

Your new cooker is guaranteed and will give lasting service. The guarantee is only applicable if the cooker has been installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions.

The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.

When first using the cooker ensure that the room is well ventilated (e.g. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room until the smell has ceased. This odour is due to any temporary finish and also any moisture absorbed by the insulation.

INTRODUCTION

Our policy is one of continual improvement in design and development, therefore strict accuracy of illustrations and descriptions cannot be guaranteed.

This appliance conforms to the following EEC Directive:

Gas Appliances 90/396/EEC

Low Voltage Equipment 73/23/EEC 93/68/EEC

Electromagnetic Compatibility 89/336/EEC 92/31/EEC 93/68/EEC

Please read the precautions below before using your cooker.

ALWAYS make sure you understand the controls before using the cooker.

ALWAYS check that all controls on the cooker are turned off after use.

ALWAYS stand back when opening an oven door to allow heat to disperse.

ALWAYS use dry, good quality oven gloves when removing items from the ovens.

ALWAYS take care when removing items from the top oven/grill when the main

oven is on, as the contents may be hot.

ALWAYS keep the oven and grill doors closed when the cooker is not in use.

ALWAYS place pans centrally over the hotplate burners and position them so that

the handles cannot accidentally be caught or knocked or become heated by other burners.

ALWAYS keep the cooker clean, as a build up of grease or fat from cooking can cause

a fire.

ALWAYS allow the cooker to cool before cleaning.

ALWAYS follow the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the

possibility of bacterial growth.

ALWAYS keep ventilation slots clear of obstructions.

ALWAYS turn off the electricity supply before cleaning or replacing the oven lamp.

ALWAYS refer servicing to CORGI registered appliance service engineers.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

NEVER leave children unsupervised where the cooker is installed as all surfaces

will get hot during and after use.

NEVER allow anyone to sit or stand on any part of the cooker.

NEVER store items that children may attempt to reach above the cooker.

NEVER heat up unopened food containers as pressure can build up causing the

container to burst.

NEVER

store chemicals, food stuffs, pressurised containers in or on the cooker,

or in

cabinet immediately above or next to the cooker.

NEVER fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, and never use a lid. DO NOT

LEAVE UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.

NEVER place flammable or plastic items on or near the hotplate.

NEVER use proprietary spillage collectors on the hotplate.

NEVER use the cooker as a room heater.

NEVER dry clothes or place other items over or near to the hotplate or oven/grill

doors.

NEVER wear garments with long flowing sleeves whilst cooking.

NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).

In particular when using the grill or more than one hotplate burner, open a window if a mechanical ventilation device is not operating.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

AUTOMATIC COOKING

Only the main oven can be controlled automatically.

GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING

When planning your meal remember that the oven control setting refers to the temperature on the middle shelf; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler. Therefore foods which require different temperatures can be cooked automatically at the same time.

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 reheating 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 it is put in the oven.

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.

We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automatically

if there is to be a delay period.

. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so

that the delay

period is kept to a minimum.

On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain

foods (ie poultry,

joints, etc) the delayed 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 to add these ingredients just before serving.

9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the oven.

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

11. Foods should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.

12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
