3.2 Fitting the front moulding
For the 70 cm model with double oven, a front moulding is included as standard supply to complete the aesthetic lines of the cooker.
Before turning the cooker over, we recommend removing all the parts that are not stably attached to it, in particular the cooking hob grids and burners. To lighten the weight of the cooker, the accessories inside the oven may also be removed, thereby preventing accidental damage during the overturning operation.
To assemble, proceed as follows:
Tilt the cooker backwards.
Align the moulding A with the mounting position as shown in the illustration.
Apply the moulding until it fits into the mounting position.
Pull the moulding downward so that it hooks onto the 4 pins B (2 for each end) present on the
cooker.
3.3 Fitting the adjustable feet
Before turning the cooker over, we recommend removing all the parts that are not stably attached to it, in particular the cooking hob grids and burners. To lighten the weight of the cooker, the accessories inside the oven may also be removed, thereby preventing accidental damage during the overturning operation.
The cooker is delivered with the feet removed. Before moving and hooking up the cooker, take the feet from the packing and screw them onto the cooker. This can be done in one of two ways:
A Lifting the cooker off the floor. B Laying the cooker on its back.
The final regulation of the feet to level the cooker to the floor will be done after the
gas and electric hook-ups have been made.

3.4.3 Replacing the electric cable
To replace the electric cable, it is necessary to access the terminal board. It is located on the back of the appliance, at the top left, as shown in the figure.
To replace the cable, proceed as follows:
open the terminal board box;
unscrew the screw A that locks the cable;
loosen the screw contacts and replace the cable
with one of the same length that corresponds to the specifications in the table in section “3.4.1 Electric power cable section”;
the "yellow-green" earth wire must be connected to
the terminal
and must be approximately 20 mm
longer than the line cables;
the neutral "blue" wire must be connected to the
terminal marked with the letter N;
the line wire must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter L.
3.5 Power consumption of the vitroceramic hob
The vitroceramic hob has different power consumptions depending on the type of heating element used. The diagram shows the values of the power consumed. In the envisaged cases, the first numeric value refers to the total power, whereas the value that follows the symbol "/" refers to the inside diameter, with the exception of the central heating element, whose value that follows "/" refers to the outer diameter.
12
3.6 Power consumption of the volcanic rock grill
The volcanic rock grill has a consumption of 2500W. This appliance must therefore be installed where this power consumption can be ensured in total safety.
Page 13
Instructions for the installer
3.7 Ventilation requirements
The room containing the appliances should have an air supply in accordance with B.S. 5440 part 2.
1. All rooms require an opening window or equivalent, and some rooms will require a permanent
vent as well.
2. For room volumes up to 5m³ an air vent of 100cm² is required.
3. If the room has a door that opens directly to the outside, and the room exceeds 1m³ no air
vent is required.
4. For room volumes between 5m³ and 10m³ an air vent of 50cm² is required.
5. If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room B.S. 5440 part 2 should be
consulted to determine the air vent requirements.
6. The appliance must not be installed in a bed sitting room of less than 20m or in a bathroom or
shower room.
Windows and permanent vents should therefore not be blocked or removed without first consulting a Corgi gas installer.
Failure to install appliances correctly is dangerous and could lead to prosecution.
DO NOT install LPG version below ground level. This does not exclude installation into a room, which equates to a basement on one side of the building, but open to ground level on the opposite side.
3.8 Gas connection
Gas-powered devices for home use, which are not connected to a conduit for the evacuation of combustion products, must not cause a concentration of carbon monoxide that could pose a health risk to the persons exposed in relation to the time of exposure.
We recommend checking that the appliance is properly set up for the type of gas distributed. The threaded ½" gas connection pipe is located at the rear on the right hand side of the appliance.
The cooker is designed to match the depth of standard 600mm worktops. An adaptor back plate should, therefore, be fitted within the shaded area shown to allow the cooker to be pushed in fully and chased to the wall.
Connection to the cooker should be made with an approved appliance flexible connection to BS 669. A length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length of hose chosen should be such that when the cooker is in situ, the hose does not touch the floor.
The temperature rise of areas at the rear of the cooker that are likely to come in contact with the flexible hose do not exceed 70°C.
13
Page 14
Instructions for the installer
3.9 Stability chain
The cooker is fitted with a stability device such as a proprietary stability chain as shown and firmly secured to the fabric of the building.
Whatever the position, remember to leave enough room for the cooker to be pulled out for cleaning and service.
The wall behind the cooker between the hotplate and 450mm above, and across the width of the cooker, must be an incombustible material such as ceramic wall tiles.
This appliance is designed not to project in front of standard 600mm worktops (excluding handles). To achieve the best fit the cooker must be pushed against the wall.
As this appliance is very heavy it should be situated on a suitably hard surface as to ensure servicing and installation is made possible with minimal impact on the floor surface.

7. Using the deep fryer
During normal operations, the surface of the deep fryer heats up considerably. Do not allow children to approach the deep fryer. Do not leave the deep fryer unattended while it is on. Oil or fat in bad condition may burst into flames.
7.1 Before switching on the deep fryer
The first time it is used, the deep fryer may develop an acrid or burnt smell caused by oily residue from manufacturing that may give unpleasant odours or flavours to fried food. To eliminate this problem, clean the vat, basket and heating element before use.
Proceed as follows:
wash the basket in warm water and detergent;
pour warm water into the deep fryer vat and add detergent for stainless steel surfaces;
carefully wash the vat and the heating element;
lift the heating element upwards, rinse and dry;
lock the heating element by moving the lock system S
towards the left as shown in the figure;
remove the frying vat, rinse away the soapy water with
running water;
dry the vat and return it to its working position;
release the lock system S and lower the heating element
into the vat.
7.2 How to fry
Proceed as follows:
pour 3 litres of oil into the deep fryer vat. It is also possible to fry with fat: in this case, chop up
approximately 3.5 kg of frying fat.
Switch on the heating element (see below for relative instructions).
If using fat, leave it to melt slowly in the deep fryer vat.
To avoid abnormal overheating: until the heating element is completely covered with melted fat, we recommend switching the heating element on and off repeatedly by using the thermostat knob.
Heat the oil or fat to a maximum of 190°C. This temperature should not be exceeded,
otherwise the oil or fat would overheat and change consistency.
The heating element should never be switched on unless the frying vat contains the above mentioned quantity and type of oil or fat.
The appliance is now ready for frying. Proceed as follows:
use the thermostat knob to set the required degree of heating: the deep fryer starts to operate
and the red and orange lights switch on;
wait until the orange light switches off, which means that the frying liquid has reached the

Each time the deep fryer has been used, check the level of frying liquid.
Check the level of frying liquid by lifting out the basket and checking that the level is between the two minimum and maximum marks punched on the wall of the frying vat.
The water contained in food goes to the bottom of the frying vat, into the so-called cold area. In this way, it is practically impossible for the frying liquid to overflow out of the vat. Food particles that come out of the basket while cooking also go to the cold area.
7.2.1 Tripping of the temperature limiting device
The deep fryer is equipped with a temperature limiting device in the vat. In the event that the frying liquid temperature exceeds the preset value, this device cuts off the heating (both lights switch off). To reactivate the heating of the deep fryer, rearm the limiting device manually.
Proceed as follows:

Rapid from 24 to 26 Semi rapid from 16 to 22 Auxiliary from 8 to 14 Triple-ring from 24 to 26 Fish kettle from 16 to 35
Do not add salt or spices to food while the basket is still positioned above the frying vat, as the oil or fat would be altered, jeopardising the flavour of subsequent fries. For large quantities of food, we recommend removing the basket from the frying vat every 1-2 minutes, so that the frying liquid can return to the preset temperature more quickly. The food to be fried must always be covered by the frying liquid. Should this not be possible (with chicken for instance), turn it half way through cooking. At the end of the cooking, remove any food residue from the frying liquid. If, despite the correct temperature setting, the food is not crisp and the frying liquid is dark, it should be replaced by carefully following the instructions given in section “13.6.1 Discharging the frying liquid”.
In order to avoid the dangerous combustion of the frying liquid, do not activate the open burners near the deep fryer.

The fry-top griddle is smooth, whereas the steak grill is lined and can be used to obtain the typical rhomboidal pattern together with the delicious flavour of barbecue cooking. Foods cooked on the fry-top/steak grill have a special taste that does not require the excessive use of spices. It is possible to cook in different ways. For example, different foods, such as meat and fish, can be cooked at the same time. Before cooking meat, we recommend treating it with flavoured oil or marinating it for a few hours. A little tip: meat should always be salted after cooking on the griddle, so that its juices do not come out prematurely.
12.4 Suggestions for using the volcanic rock grill correctly
Cooking food on the cast iron grill creates a considerable quantity of smoke. Sometimes, while cooking very fatty meat, small flames may appear similar to those seen during barbeque cooking (see section 9.2 for how to solve this problem). Before placing fish on the grill, we recommend greasing it slightly with oil or melted butter. This will stop the fish sticking to the surface of the grill.
The appliance can also be used in the same way as an “open burner”, which is ideal for simmering. Only use multi-function pans whose dimensions are compatible with the cooking surface of the cast iron grill. This type of cooking is ideal for: beef stews, grilled pork, blanquette, rabbit with beer, tongue (see instructions in section 9.2).

12.5 Suggestions for using the vitroceramic hob correctly
In order to obtain good efficiency and adequate energy consumption, it is essential to use only recipients that are suitable for electric cooking. The diameter of the base of the recipient must be the same as the diameter of the outline of the cooking area. Energy is wasted if they do not correspond. The base of the recipient must be very thick and perfectly flat. It should also be clean and dry, as should the glass on the hob. Do not use cast iron pots or pots with a rough base, as they may scratch the surface.
When using the vitroceramic hob, it must be thoroughly cleaned before switching on the heating elements. The glass may be scratched if pans are placed on abrasive residues. Any scratches do not however jeopardise the cooking procedure.
The ideal thickness for the base of the pans is:
2-3 mm in enamelled steel;
4-6 mm in stainless steel with double base.
Before cooking food with a high sugar content (e.g. jam), apply a protective product to the cooking surface to prevent it from being damaged if the food spits or boils over.
12.6 Suggestions for using the oven correctly
The oven allows to optimise cooking. It is possible to cook traditionally, with convection and with the grill.
The oven door should be completely closed for all types of cooking.
12.6.1 Traditional cooking
With this type of cooking, the heat comes from the top and the bottom. It is therefore preferable to use the central guides. If the cooking requires a hotter temperature from the bottom or from the top, use the lower or upper guides. Traditional cooking is recommended for all food that requires high cooking temperatures, or long brazing times. This system is also recommended when cooking with recipients made of terracotta, porcelain and similar materials.
36
12.6.2 Convection cooking
With this type of cooking, the food is heated by preheated air that is circulated in the oven thanks to a fan located on the rear wall of the oven. Heat rapidly and evenly reaches all parts of the oven, thus enabling different food to be cooked at the same time on different shelves. Humidity is eliminated from the air and the drier area prevents odours and flavours from being spread and mixed. The possibility of cooking on more than one shelf allows you to cook many different dishes at the same time. Biscuits and mini pizzas can be cooked in three different baking tins. The oven, however, can also be used for cooking on a single shelf. The lower shelves can be used so that it is easier to monitor cooking. Convection cooking is particularly
convenient for bringing frozen food rapidly back to room
temperature, for sterilising preserves or home-made fruit in syrup and, finally, for drying mushrooms or fruit.
Page 37
Instructions for the user
12.6.3 Cooking with the grill
The heat comes from the top. Almost all meat can be grilled, with the exception of lean game and dishes such as meat-loaf. Meat and fish to be grilled should be lightly drizzled with oil and placed on the grid bars, which should be placed in the guides closest to or farthest away from the grill element, depending on the thickness of the meat, so as to avoid burning the surface and cooking too little inside. Suitable for: relatively thin meat; toasted sandwiches.
Pour 1 or 2 glasses of water into the dripping pan to avoid smoke forming due to drops of juice or fat.
While cooking with the grill, the dripping pan should always be positioned in the 1st guide from the bottom.
12.6.4 Cooking with the ventilated grill
Using the combination of grill and fan . This type of cooking allows the heat to penetrate gradually inside the food, even though the surface is directly exposed to the grill.
Suitable for: thicker meat; game-birds.
12.6.5 Cooking meat and fish
Meat to be cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1 kg. Very tender red meat to be cooked rare (roast beef, fillet, etc.), or which should be well cooked on the outside and preserve all its juices on the inside, require cooking on high temperatures for a short time (200-250°C). White meat, game­birds and fish require cooking on low temperatures (150-175°C). The ingredients for the sauce should only be placed in the baking tin if the cooking time is short, otherwise, they should be added in the last half hour. Meat can be placed on an ovenproof plate or directly on the grid bars, below which the dripping pan should be placed to collect the juice. Press the meat with a spoon to check if it is done. If it is firm, it is cooked. At the end of the cooking, wait at least 15 minutes before cutting the meat so as not to lose the juices. Before serving, plates can be warmed in the oven at minimum temperature.
12.6.6 Baking
Beaten mixtures must stick to the spoon because excess fluidity would prolong the cooking time. Sweets require moderate temperatures (generally between 150-200°C) and require preheating (approximately 10 minutes). The oven door must not be opened until at least ¾ of the way through the cooking time.

13.8 Cleaning the volcanic rock grill
After cooking, the cast iron grill and other components will remain hot for a certain length of time. Make sure they are completely cool before handling them for cleaning.
Proceed as follows:
clean the cast iron grill by immersing it in hot water and washing up liquid. Do not under any circumstances use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. powder products or metallic sponges). Rinse and dry carefully.
While cleaning the grill, handle it with care as it is fragile due to the material it is made of and its thickness.
Any grease deposits can be removed more easily by heating the grill for 5 or 10 minutes (knob in position 11). Allow the grill to cool, remove it, rinse and dry well with a clean cloth.
Lift the heating element upwards and clean it with a damp sponge;
lock the heating element by moving the lock system S towards the left as shown in the figure.
Remove the safety vat. Place the volcanic rock in a suitable container or pour away the water with the cooking fat residue.
The volcanic rock contained in the collection basin is not subject to wear and therefore never has to be replaced. To eliminate any unpleasant odours due to normal use, stir up the stones and heat them for a few minutes. If cooking grease is deposited on the surface of the stones, it is sufficient to heat them in an oven for high temperature pyrolysis. The same quality of cleaning can be obtained by turning the energy regulator knob of the grill to the maximum position (11) for 5 or 10 minutes, depending on the amount of soil that has accumulated. In any case, volcanic rock replacements can be found in any store that sells household goods.
The stainless steel safety vat should be cleaned with a specific product that does not contain chlorine-based abrasives or acid substances, or a little warm vinegar (it is dishwasher
safe). Rinse and dry carefully;
replace the safety vat into its working position. Finally, release the lock system S and lower the heating element over the vat.
13.9 Cleaning the vitroceramic hob
The vitroceramic hob must be cleaned regularly, each time it is used if possible, when the latent heat lights are off.
Any light-coloured marks caused by aluminium-based pans can be removed with a damp cloth dipped in vinegar. Any burnt residue left after cooking can be removed with a wooden spatula. Rinse with water and dry well with a clean cloth. Do not under any circumstances use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. powder products, oven sprays, stain-removers or metallic sponges).
41
Page 42
Instructions for the user
Any grease deposits on the vitroceramic hob can be removed more easily by heating it for approximately 20-30 minutes (knob in position 11). Afterwards, this residue can be cleaned off with a wooden spatula. Allow the surface to cool, rinse with water and dry well with a clean cloth.
In the event that aluminium or plastic marks, sugar or food containing sugar melt on the cooking surface, remove immediately while the surface is still warm with a wooden spatula. This will prevent any damage to the surface.
The cooking surface of the vitroceramic hob is extremely resistant. It is not however unbreakable and may be damaged, above all by pointed or hard objects if dropped onto it with a certain force.
Warning! If any crack should appear on the hob, isolate the cooker from the main supply and do not use the appliance to avoid electrocution. Call Customer Services immediately.
13.10 Cleaning the oven
In order to preserve the oven well, it should be cleaned regularly, each time it is used if possible, after leaving it to cool: in this way it is possible to remove any residue more easily, preventing it from burning the next time the oven is used.
Clean the stainless steel parts and enamelled parts as described in the corresponding sections “13.1 Cleaning stainless steel surfaces” and “13.2 Cleaning enamelled surfaces”.
Take out all the removable parts and wash them separately. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
13.10.1 Cleaning the oven walls
Never use detergent products to clean this type of oven.
The walls of the oven can be cleaned using white vinegar and wiped with a cloth dampened with water. Subsequently, heat the oven for at least one hour at 150°C to facilitate cleaning. When the oven has cooled, wipe it again with a damp cloth.
13.10.2 Cleaning the oven door
We recommend always keeping the oven door clean. Use kitchen roll and on tougher dirt use a damp cloth and household detergent.
Spray products for cleaning the oven must not be used to clean the fan and the thermostat sensor inside the oven compartment.
13.11 Replacing the oven light bulb
42
Before carrying out maintenance, switch off the power supply to the appliance.
Proceed as follows:
open the oven door;
unscrew the glass safety cap anticlockwise; unscrew the bulb and
replace it with another one for high temperatures (300°C) with the following characteristics:

14. Special maintenance
Periodically, it is necessary to maintain or replace some parts that are subject to wear and tear. Specific instructions are given below for each type of maintenance.
Before carrying out maintenance, switch off the power supply to the appliance and close the gas tap.
14.1 Removing the oven door
The oven door can be completely removed to enable more thorough cleaning. Though this operation is possible, it should not be performed by everyone, as it requires the strength to hold up the door and a minimum of expertise to re-fit it. If you are not sure of being able to do this, we recommend that you clean the door without taking it off or, in special cases, that you contact the nearest authorised service centre.
To remove the door, proceed as follows:
Open the oven door and release the safety catches of the hinges by turning the respective pins A (one for each hinge) backward.
Partially close the door until there is no more load tension on the springs (the door will form an angle of about 30°).
Using both hands, accompany the movement of the door towards closure and simultaneously lift it upward.
Turn the lower part of the door towards the outside to free the hinges B from their seats.
If you need to remove any dry residues or dust deposited on the inner part of the windows, turn the door upside down as shown in the figure, slide a soft bottle brush into the spaces between the glass plates and brush gently.
To re-fit the door, carry out the instructions given above in the inverse direction. When the hinges B are back in their seats, open the door all the way and re-fit the safety catches of the hinges, lowering the respective pins A (one for each hinge).
CAUTION: After re-fitting the door, always be sure to re-fit the hinge safety catches.

Press downward with your fingers as shown in detail 2 of the figure to release the frame from the upper pin.
Lift the frame upward and take it out.
To re-fit proceed in the inverse direction. Set the lower part of the frame on the respective pins and press the upper part against the oven wall until it hooks onto the pin.
14.3 Removing and cleaning the inside oven fan
The inside fan of the ventilated oven may require periodic cleaning. To disassemble the fan proceed as follows:
Make sure that the power supply to the appliance is switched off.
Remove all inside components (dripping pan, shelves).
Loosen and remove the four screws A from the cover panel.
Remove the cover panel B.
Use a coin to loosen the fixing nut C of the fan (this threading is inverse; to loosen turn
clockwise).
Remove the fan D and wash it by immersing it in warm water and dish detergent. Never use abrasive or
corrosive detergents, powdered products, or metal scrubbers. Rinse the
fan and dry it thoroughly.
Re-fit the fan and the cover by working in the inverse direction to the instructions for removal.
