POSITIONING

Important: Fix the chain located next to the gas connection on
both sides of the cooker to the wall to prevent the cooker from
tilting. Both chains must be securely fixed.
Make sure that the wall surface behind the Cooker is non­combustable (will not catch fire).
Where a painted surface is adjacent, a fire ret ardent paint surface
is recommended. Wallpaper, wood, or fabric should not be used
behind or next to the cooker.
“Any adjoining wall surface situated within 200mm from the edge
of any hob burner must be a suitable non-combustible material
for a height of 150mm for the entire length of the hob. Any
combustible construction above the hotplate must be at least
650mm above the maintop.” Ensure that a power and gas supply
are nearby. The Cooker should be located carefully so that the
heat produced by it has plenty of space to escape. The diagram
below shows an ideal configuration.

PROVISION FOR VENTILATION

INSTALLATION

The room where the Cooker is installed should have permanent
ventilation as follows:
“Ventilation must be in accordance with AS5601/AG 601 - Gas
Installations. In general, the appliance should have adequate
ventilation for complete comb ustion of gas, proper flueing and to
maintain temperature of immediate surroundings within saf e limit s .”

- Do not install in a bed-sitting room, a bathroom or sho wer room.
If there is another fuel burning appliance in the same room, a
higher level of ventilation will be required, you should consults
" the safety requirements".

In addition to the abov e , during prolonged use , opening a window
in the same room is recommended. This will avoid the build up
of excessive moisture and condensation.

The small flame indicates the ‘low position’.
Turn the knob to it after the contents of a pan have boiled.

The smaller burners are for smaller pans and simmering. Make
sure flames are under the pans. Using a lid will help the contents
boil more quickly.

Always use pans with a flat base diameter, which are well balanced
and stable in use, a pan which overhangs the hotplate should not
be used. Avoid using old, misshapen pans, or pans which are
unstable when placed on a flat surface. Do not use “split pans”
as they are inherently unstable.
To save gas, always position pans centrally over the burners and
adjust the flames so that they do not lick up the sides of the pan
and only the base is heated. Always put lids on saucepans and
boil only the amount of liquid you use. When the liquid has boiled
adjust the setting to maintain a simmer. Do not light the burner
until the pan is in position and turn off the burner before removing
the pan. In hard water areas, descale kettles regularly. For safety,
keep saucepan handles turned to a safe position so they are out
of reach of small children and cannot be accidentally knocked.

Both the lower and upper heating elements operate together.
This is the traditional cooking, very good for roasting joints, ideal
for biscuits, baked apples and crisping food.
You obtain very good results when cooking on a shelf adjusting
the temperature between 60 and MAX°C.

Fan oven

Both the fan and the circular heating element operate together.
The hot air adjustable between 60 and MAX°C is evenly distributed
inside the oven. This is ideal for cooking several types of food
(meat, fish) at the same time without affecting taste and smell.
It is indicated for delicate pastries.

Medium grill

It is indicated for grilling and gratinating small quantities of traditional
food.
The thermostat knob must be placed on the maximum position.

Total grill

It is indicated for grilling and gratinating traditional food.
Turn the thermostat control knob to the 200°C position.

Fan assisted total grill

The air which is heated by the grill heating element is circulated
by the fan which distributes the heat on the food.
The fan assisted grill replaces perfectly the turnspit. Y ou can obt ain
very good results also with large quantities of poultry, sausage,
red meat. Turn the thermostat control knob to the 200°C position.

Air forced lower heating element

The air which is heated by the lower heating element is circulated
by the fan which distributes the heat on the food.
This function can be used to sterilize food. This function can be
used between 60 and MAX°C

When you turn the control knob to this position, the light will be

PLATE WARMING

Ovenproof plates and dishes may be warmed in the oven on a
low temperature setting. Remember do not place items directly
into the oven base.

Warning: do not use foil to cover the oven shelves, or any part

of the oven interior including the oven base. Foil should only be
used to cover food and cooking dishes. Always place items which
may boil over (e.g. fruit pies) on a baking tray to prevent spillage
burning onto the oven base. Foil used improperly is frequent cause
of oven problems and painful accidents. Avoid letting grease
deposit collect around the upper heating element: it will cause
smoking and may start a fire.
Remember do not place pan or items directly onto the oven base.
Never leave unit unattended at hight heat settings. Boil over
causes smokingand greasy spill over that may start a fire.
If a grease fire should occur in a pan put out the flame by placing
a lid on the pan. Do not throw water on a grease fire.

GUIDE FOR FORCED CONVECTION COOKING
(Back rolled electric element with fan)

The accessories provided with the oven can be slotted in at 5
positions: the following guide concerns cooking times and thermostat
settings using N. 2 shelves on the same time (in position N. 2 and
N. 4). Cooked results are a matter of personal preference and may
easily be adjusted to suit individual requirements by slight adjustment
of the temperature and/or cooking time, or when using more or
less shelves in the same time. Preheating of the oven is
recommended for 10-15 minutes or until the oven thermostat
indicator light switches off to show the selected temperature has
been reached.
When using a baking tray it should be placed centrally on the oven
shelf with the short sides of the tray parallel to the sides of the
oven. Do not use trays, tins or dishes larger than 380mm (15")
long, 356 mm (14") wide, as cooking results may be impaired.

USlNG THE GRILL

The grill is situated in the top of the oven compartment.
The grill pan should be located on the top oven shelf position.

Warning:

Do not place fatty foods too close to the grill and never leave the
grill unattended. If fatty foods are grilled, or roasting has been
cooked in the oven at a high temperature the grill element may
smoke. This is not dangerous and the smoke is caused by the fat
burning off when the grill element is hot. Leave the grill element
on until the smoking has stopped t-hen use as normal. If a grease
fire should occur in a pan put out the flame by placing a lid on the
pan. Do not throw water on a grease fire.

cause serious injury.

• Some “Wok” cooking pots are unstable. Check with the

manufacturer before purchasing.

• Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans which may tilt easily

and pans with a very small base diameter, e.g. milk pans, single
egg poachers. The minimum pan diameter recommended is
125mm (5"). Smaller pans will be unstable.

Very large pans may cause walls or knobs to overheat. Using

pans which are too big may deform the control knobs or discolour
the walls. This is not covered by the guarantee.

• Carefully place all pans centrally over the burners.

• Always position pan handles safely away from the front of the

PROBLEM SOLVER

Any of the following are considered to be abnormal operation
and may require servicing:

Yellow tipping of the hob burner flame.
Sooting up of cooking utensils.
Burners not igniting properly.
Burners failing to remain alight.
Burners extinguished by oven door.
Gas valves, which are difficult to turn.

Y our Inst aller should be cont acted if you have any problems with
the installation.
Before you call a service engineer please check if the problem
is something you could fix yourself. The cause of the problem is
often a simple one.

THINGS TO TRY BEFORE CALLING FOR AN ENGINEER
Burner does not burn well

Is the burner dirty or damp? Try cleaning and/or drying the burner .
Appliance not suitable for your gas type? Check the identification
plate on the hotplate base.

Burner does not ignite

Do the burners spark when you press the ignition button? If not
is the power on? See ‘Checking the power supply’ section further
on. If the power supply is OK then there is probably something
wrong with the ignition system.
Are the electrode or burner slots blocked by debris?
Is the burner dirty or damp? Try cleaning and/or drying the burner .
Is the burner trim correctly located?
Are the burner caps correctly located?
Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can
do this by making sure that other gas appliances you may have
are working.

Pan supports

Aluminium pans may cause a metallic marking on the pan supports
which does not affect the durability of the enamel and may be
cleaned off with a metal cleaner such as ‘Brasso’.

Checking the power supply

First check the socket by trying out another piece of electrical
equipment in it.
If that works, renew the fuse in the hotplate plug. Use a 10 amp
fuse. If the fuse ‘blows’ again there is a fault on the hotplate. Do
not use a fuse with a higher rating. Do not carry out other electrical
work. Unplug the hotplate and tell your installer.

Power Failure

In the event of a failure in the electrical supply the hotplate burners
may be lit using a match.

Ventilation

The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of
heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that
the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open
or install a mechanical ventilation device, (mechanical extractor
hood). Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example opening a window, or more

OVEN DOES NOT WORK AT ALL

First, when the oven is equipped with timer, check appliance is
not programmed to turn on later. If it is, turn to manual setting (i.e.
hand symbol). If the button or scale on the timer remains in the
automatic position after use, the power supply to the oven will be
interrupted. Also, check your appliance is switched on at the
mains. Next check for an unexpected power strike by switching
on adjacent lights etc. Finally, check fuses and plug wiring. If all
these prove satisfactory, call engineer.

LIGHT BULB DOESN’T COME ON

Check bulb for looseness or burned out bulb.

Note: bulb replacement is not covered by your guarantee.

SMOKE COMING FROM OVEN

If oven is still relatively new, this problem is invariably due to
protective oil on elements. Otherwise, the answer may be oil or
fat which has become deposited on the elements during cooking.
In either event, continued use should burn away the residues. On
future occasions, try to shield food with foil or keep it further away
from element, particularly when grilling.

CLOCK/TIMER DOES NOT WORK

Check to be sure range cord is plugged into outlet completely.
Check for a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker. Check for power
outage. Check step by step operating Instructions on previous
pages.

effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present. For more detail see the Installation
Instructions.

hotplate and out of danger, particularly from small children.

• Never leave a chip pan unattended.

• Pans and kettles with down turned base rims should not be
used.

• Simmering aids such as asbestos or mesh mats are NOT
recommended. They will reduce burner performance and could
damage the pan supports.

• Commercially available foil spillage aids are unnecessary on
this hotplate.
