Hob & Cooker Safety
✔Always ensure that pan bases are dry, and flat before
using them on the hob.
✔Always position pans over the centre of the burner, and
turn the handles to a safe position so they cannot be
knocked or grabbed.
✔Always use pans which are no smaller than 100mm
(4”), or larger than 250mm (10”).
✔ 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
which have been in the oven as they will be hot.
✔Always make sure that the oven shelves are resting in
the correct position in between two runners. Do not
place the oven shelves on top of the highest runner,
this will lead to spillage and injury if the baking tray, or
dish falls.
✖ Never use double pans, rimbased pans, old or
misshapen pans, or any pan which is not stable on a
flat surface.
✖ Never leave cooking fat, or oil, unattended.
✖ Never use commercial simmering aids, or heat
diffusers, as they create excessive heat and can
damage the surface of the hob.
✖ Never use the hob for any other purpose than cooking
food.
✖ Plastic cooking utensils can melt if they come into
contact with a warm hob. Never leave them close to,
or on top of, the hob.
✖ Never leave the burner alight without a pan covering it.
This causes a fire hazard.
✖ Do not place items on the grill door while it is open.
✖ Do not wrap foil around the oven shelves, or allow it to
block the flue.
✖ Do not drape tea towels near the oven while it is on,
this will cause a fire hazard.
✖ Do not pull heavy items, such as turkeys, or large
joints of meat, out from the oven on the shelf, as they
may overbalance and fall.
✖ Do not use this appliance to heat anything other than
food items, and do not use it for heating the room.
Always make sure that the
burner caps, rings and
pansupports are correctly
placed. This will prevent pans
becoming unstable while in
use, and ensure an
uninterrupted gas flow.
Call Customer Care for a
service engineers visit if:
You find over a period of
time that the gas oven
becomes hotter at a
particular temperature - the
thermostat may need
replacing.
The cooling fan fails to work.
WARNING: Parts of
the appliance may
become hot while in
use, always make sure
that children are
supervised when they
are near to the
appliance.
!!
Warning (ceramic
glass):
Never use the hob if the
ceramic surface is
cracked, broken or
shattered.
This creates a high risk
of injury. Switch off the
electric supply and call
for a service engineer to
come out.
Warning (ceramic
glass): Do not stare at
the halogen elements (if
fitted). This may impair
your vision!
Aluminium foil:
Do not leave foil on the hob
top, it reflects heat back into
the element which leads to
damage.

Using Your Gas Hob
Hob Ignition
Models without thermocouples:
To turn on
, place your pan onto the pansupports above
the burner you wish to use.
Push in and turn the selected control knob
anticlockwise, to the full on symbol.
If your hob has an igni
tion button or switch on the
fascia, press it in until your burner lights.
If your hob has automatic ignition it will spark next to
the burner when you push in the control knob.
To simmer
, turn the control knob to the small flame
symbol. This will ensure that the flame is just large
enough to gently heat the contents of the pan.
To turn off
, turn the control knob clockwise to the ‘off’
position.
Always make sure that your pans are placed correctly
on the burners as shown, and do not allow the flame
to extend over the base of the pan.
Models with thermocouples:
Ignition as above, but:
Hold the control knob in for 15 seconds. Do not hold
the control knob in for any longer than 15 seconds. If
the burner fails to light within this time, release the
control knob and wait one minute before attempting to
re-ignite.
Energy Saving
Position pans centrally over the elements.
Only heat the amount of liquid you need.
Once liquids have been brought to the boil, reduce the
heat setting to a simmer.
Consider using a pressure cooker if possible.
Vegetables in small pieces will cook quicker.
Use a pan which is a close match to your element size.
Smaller elements are ideal for simmering and stewing
in smaller pans, while the larger elements are ideal for
frying and boiling
How can I tell if my hob
has thermocouples?
Picture A below:
shows a burner without
thermocouples.
Picture B below:
shows a burner with
thermocouples.

B
In the event of a power
failure, or the ignition
not working:
Push in and turn the
control knob to start the
gas, then hold a lighted
match or taper to the
burner until it lights.
Use flat based pans
which are the correct
size for your burners
and suitable for your
hob type.
We recommend the
following sizes:
100mm or 4” min.
250mm or 10” max.
Smaller or larger pan
sizes may lead to slower
cooking times.

Using Your Griddle
Only use the griddle which has been approved for use on
this appliance. Do not use any other griddle, as this may
be hazardous.
Please read these instructions thoroughly
before using the
griddle for the first time.
Before using the griddle for the first time
Wash the griddle thoroughly in hot soapy water. (see
“Cleaning” section).
Season sparingly with a minimum amount of cooking oil.
Heat the griddle on full rate for 3 minutes. The griddle
plate is now ready for use.
Using the griddle
The griddle should only be positioned front-to-back
over the burners indicated by the griddle symbol on the
fascia panel.
Do not
use the griddle over the large burners.
Place the griddle carefully on the pan support over the
burners, using the locating feet on the underside of the
griddle. Take care to avoid damage to the surface of the
pan supports.
Before cooking, preheat the griddle for 3 minutes on full
rate, which is indicated on the control knobs by a large
flame symbol.
After preheating, turn the control knobs to the small
flame symbol.
The griddle is now ready for cooking.
Do not use metal implements, as they may damage the
non-stick surface.
Always make sure that
children are supervised when they are
near to the appliance
when it is in use.
!!
Seasoning the
griddle: see the
‘Cleaning’ section of this
handbook.
Always allow the griddle
to cool completely before
moving or cleaning.
!!
About your griddle:
The griddle is made of
quality cast iron, and
has a non-stick cooking
surface.
Regular seasoning will
prolong the life of the
griddle and prevent
rusting. If the griddle
shows signs of rust,
wash and re-season.

Using Your Ceramic Hob
About your hob
Your hob may have halogen element (s) as well as the
standard ceramic elements. In terms of care and use the
procedure remains the same as with the other elements.
The hot hob light
The hot hob light will come on when one of the hotplates
is switched on, or when it has begun to warm up. It will
remain on for a short time after the last element has been
switched off to serve as a reminder that the hob top may
still be warm to the touch.
Switching on - rotary control
Select the element you wish to use, place the pan on
and turn the control knob clockwise to the heat you
wish to use.
The temperature settings on the hob do not indicate
any set temperature and cannot be used to judge one
element against another.
During cooking, the elements will cycle on and off, this
is to prevent the hob for overheating.
In addition for your safety, there may be a ‘hot hob’
light, this will indicate that the hob has been recently
used and may still be hot to touch.
To switch off, turn the selected control knob
anti-clockwise to the ‘
OFF’ position.
Energy Saving
Position pans centrally over the elements.
Only heat the amount of liquid you need.
Once liquids have been brought to the boil, reduce the
heat setting to a simmer.
Consider using a pressure cooker if possible.
Vegetables in small pieces will cook quicker.
Use a pan which is a close match to your element size.
Smaller elements are ideal for simmering and stewing
in smaller pans, while the larger elements are ideal for
frying and boiling.
Always make sure that
children are supervised when they are
near to the appliance
when it is in use.
!!
Before use:
Apply a thin coat of
ceramic hob cleaner
to the hob to help
maintain and protect it.
Supplies can be
purchased from our
Customer Parts Centre.
The part number and
contact number are
towards the back of this
guide.
Try to avoid spillage of
salty substances or
sugary substances onto
your hotplate spillage
well, as this may cause
staining and damage your
hob.
Clean the hob top as
regularly as possible, this
will prevent any build up
of grease which may be a
fire hazard.
!!
Use flat based pans
which are the correct
size for your burners
and suitable for your
hob type.
We recommend the
following sizes:
100mm or 4” min.
250mm or 10” max.
Smaller or larger pan
sizes may lead to slower
cooking times.
Slow cooking time?
Check the base of your pan.
Shiny pans can often reflect
heat back into the element
causing it to cycle on and off
more.

Using Your Grill
Before you start grilling. . . .
Before you use the grill, make sure you have placed the
grill shelf in the position you need as once the grill is on
you may injure yourself if you try to move the shelf.
Do not close the door while the grill is in use. We rec-
ommend that the door is fully open when grilling.
Turn the selector control knob to the heat setting you
require.
To switch off, return the control knob to the ‘off’
position.
The cooling fan will come on during use, and may
continue to run for some time afterwards.
To adjust your results, you can turn the grid over, or
remove it altogether.
If your grill is a dual grill:
The
dual grill
uses all of the top element and is ideal for
grilling large quantities of food.
The
single grill
uses part of the element only, and is
better suited to grill smaller amounts of food.
The grill pan
This appliance comes with a grill pan, grill pan handle and
a grid.
The handle of the grill pan is detachable to allow you to
remove it while the pan is in use, this stops it from
getting hot.
To attach the handle:
Place the handle over the narrow edge of the grill pan
and slide to the centre as shown in the diagrams.
Shelf & Grid adjustments
Speed of grilling can be adjusted by changing the shelf
position or turning the grill pan grid.
High: For thin foods and toasting.
Low: For thicker meat pieces.
Aluminium Foil
Never cover the grill pan or grill trivet with foil, or allow fat
to build up in the grill pan, as this creates a fire hazard.
Warning: Accessible
parts may become hot
when the grill is in use.
Children should be kept
away.
Please note: the grill
pan handle is designed
for sliding the grill pan
into and out of the grill
cavity. It is not to be
used for lifting the pan.
Types of grill
Fix
ed rate grill: has a
full ‘on’ setting and ‘off’.
Variable rate grill: has
adjustable heat settings
1 (low) to 8 (high) or 5
(high) - depending on
the model.
Single gri
ll: has one grill
element.
Dual grill: has two grill
elements which can be
used together, or as a
single grill.
For best results:
Pre-heat the grill for
about 3 minutes.
