USE OF APPLIANCE

Before the First Use of the Cooker

Remove all packaging both inside and outside of the cooker, before using it.

Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

1. Remove the oven accessories and ensure all packaging has been removed.

2. Ignite the oven burner (see instructions) and turn the control knob to maximum.

3. Open a window for ventilation.

4. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes.

This procedure should be repeated with the grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

Using the Oven

The cooker gets hot when it is in use. Children should be kept away until it has cooled.

Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door. Do not allow it to fall open support the door using the door handle, until it is fully open.

When using the oven the lid ( if there is) must be open to avoid over-heating.

The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied with one shelf. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram.

Oven Safety device The cooker features a thermocouple; if for any reason the flame should extinguish, the device will stop the gas flow.

Cooking in the Oven

Traditional cooking is made by natural convection; the heated air circulates on the principle of ascending and descending air. It is necessary to pre-heat the oven.

All cookers vary and it is important to be aware of the approximate cooking temperatures before you use the cooker.

The chart shows the gas mark temperatures together with the approximate equivalent temperatures in

It may be necessary to adjust the temperature to suit your individual requirements. Only experience will enable you to determine the correct setting for your personal requirements.

When grilling, the accessible parts of the appliance are hot and the appliance should not be left unattended. Take care that children do not play near it. While the grill is operating leave the oven door half open and put the grill deflector “A” into place.

Grill burner ignition

• Open the oven door.

• Hold a flame to the gas grill burner holes (see

fig.).

• Press the oven/grill function control knob, then

turn it to the “grill symbol”. Upon ignition,

keep the knob pressed for approximately 10 seconds (until the safety valve automatically keeps the grill burner lit).

If for any reason the flame should extinguish turn the control knob to the "

" position, leave for at

least 1 minute and then re-ignite.

The grill pan will become hot during use, always use oven gloves when removing or replacing a hot grill pan, or the grill pan handles if provided.

Grilling

When using the grill it has to be

supervised, the oven door opened and the grill deflector “A” in its place.

When grilling, only the top burner is heating. It is not necessary to preheat the grill.

• Insert the grill pan on the fourth level.

• Turn the knob to position “grill”.

• Adjust the grid and pan position to allow for

different thicknesses of food. Position the food close the grill for faster cooking and further away for gentler cooking.

Heat comes from the top of the oven. It is suitable for grilling meat (beef bacon, pork bacon …) that remains tender, for toast or to brown dishes already cooked dishes.

Grilling meat

When using the grill it has to be

supervised, the oven door opened and the grill deflector “A” in its place.

• Prepare the meat to be grilled, lightly brush it

with oil on both sides.

• Place it on the roasting grid.

• Turn the oven/grill control knob to position “grill”.

• Slide the roasting grid in the guide 4 and the

roasting tray in the guide 3.

• When the first side is brown, turn the meat

without pricking it in order that the juices are not lost.

• Grill the second side.

Cooking time is determined by the thickness of the piece to be grilled not by its weight.
