INTRODUCTION

Your new cooker is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only
applicable if the appliance has been installed in accordance with the installation
instructions detailed in this booklet.

To help make best use of your cooking equipment,
please read this booklet carefully.

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

Note: When the cooker is first used, an odour may be emitted - this will cease after a
short period of use

To help remove the 'new' smell, heat up the empty oven(s) to maximum for a
minimum of two to three hours keeping the oven doors closed. 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 on oven linings and elements and also any
moisture absorbed by the insulation.

* The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:

(a) Has been used solely in accordance with the Users Instruction Book.
(b) Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the

rating plate attached to this equipment.

SAFETY ADVICE

IN THE EVENT OF A CHIP PAN OR ANY OTHER PAN FIRE:

1. TURN OFF THE COOKER APPLIANCE AT THE WALL SWITCH.

2. COVER THE PAN WITH A FIRE BLANKET OR DAMP CLOTH, this will smother the

Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing outside with it.
NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT A PAN FIRE as the force of the
extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over. Never use water to extinguish oil or fat
fires.

Slow Cooking

Note: It is advisable to check that all oven controls have been switched off after you
have finished using the appliance.

The oven has a “Slow Cook Setting” this can be used for slow cooking, keep­ing food warm and / or warming plates for a short period. Turn oven control
(A) to 90˚C

OVEN TIMER OPERATION

Note: Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the oven
can be used.

AUTOMATIC COOKING

The Oven can be controlled by the Automatic Timer.

HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING

1. Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.

2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so
the food is ready when you require it.

3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.

4. Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as
possible.

5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for automatic
cooking, keep the delay time to a minimum.

6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could
cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.

7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g.
Shepherd's Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay
period.

8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in
food.

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

10. 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.

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

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

13. Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.

14. Only reheat food once.
