COOKING GUIDE
General guidelines
This range has been designed to utilise the bake burner, broiler and cavity fan in different
combinations to provide you with enhanced performance. The variety of functions, allows
you to cook all food types to perfection.
1
Oven elements
1 broil burner
2
2 cavity fan
3
3 bake burner (concealed)
Ensure all functions are used with the oven door closed.
Baking
z
For best results when baking, always pre-heat your oven.
z
Single shelf cooking: place your baking on a shelf that will position the top of your pan
near the centre of the oven.
z
Multi shelf cooking: Always leave a space between shelves to allow the air to circulate.
Broiling
z
Always broil with the oven door completely shut.
z
Always keep a close watch on your food to avoid charring or burning.
z
If you use glass or ceramic pans, be sure they can withstand high oven temperatures.
z
For thinner cuts of meat, or for toasting or browning foods, use a higher shelf position.
z
Thicker cuts of meats should be broiled on lower shelves or at a lower broil setting to
ensure even cooking.
Setting BROIL in the main cavity
Turn both the OVEN MODE and TEMPERATURE
dials to BROIL. The temperature is automatically
calibrated for optimal broiling.
Roasting
z
Boneless, rolled or stuffed roasts require longer than roasts containing bones. Poultry
should be well cooked with the juices running clear and a minimum internal temperature
of 165°F (75°C).
z
Always roast meat fat side up.
z
Use a meat thermometer to determine when meat is cooked.
z
Always rest the meat for at least 10 minutes after roasting to allow the juices to settle.
The meat will continue to cook for a few minutes after removing it from the oven.
16
COOKING GUIDE
Reheating
z
Never reheat food more than once.
z
Use BAKE to reheat food, once hot, use the BAKE function at 200°F (90°C) to keep the
food warm.
z
Always reheat food to piping hot, or to a minimum internal temperature of 185°F (85°C).
This reduces the risk of contamination.
z
Reheat food in a dish with a lid or cover tightly with foil.
Dough proofing
z
Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a clean, damp cloth.
z
Position in the centre of the oven and to prevent overproofing check, every 30 minutes.
z
We recommend using the secondary cavity for proofing.
Proofing in the secondary cavity
Turn the secondary
the secondary TEMPERATURE dial to WARM. Preheat
for 5 minutes before placing the dough in the oven.
Once dough has risen to size, remove and turn the
OVEN MODE dial to OFF.
Proofing in the main cavity
Turn the main
main TEMPERATURE dial to WARM. Heat for 5
minutes before turning the TEMPERATURE dial to
OFF and placing the dough in the oven.
Once dough has risen to size, remove and turn the
OVEN MODE dial to OFF.

BURNER USE
Burner use guidelines
Burner output
All burners have the same low turn-down setting (
hr). Use SIM for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering
soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
For cooking that requires intense heat use the burners listed below. These have a higher
maximum output (23,500 BTU/hr for Natural gas) than other burners (17,000 BTU/hr for LP
gas).
RGV3-485GD models: Center burner
RGV3-488 models: Front left or front right burner
All other models: Front left burner
Use and care
z
Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy
spills that may ignite.
z
Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up its sides. This could discolor
and damage the utensil and you may get burned touching a hot handle.
z
Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of the
cooktop or another burner that is on.
z
Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high
setting.
z
Make sure that all burner parts are correctly fitted. Incorrectly or incompletely assembled
burners may produce dangerous flames. See 'Replacing burner parts'.
z
Keep the burners clean. Especially after a spill or boilover, ensure the affected burners
are cleaned before using them again. Food residue may clog the ignitor and the notches
of the flame spreader, stopping the burner from functioning correctly. See 'Care and
cleaning' for instructions.
z
Check that the burner flames are regular. They should be blue with no yellow tipping,
and burn without fluttering around the burner cap. If not, see 'Troubleshooting'
for advice.
z
Use woks only with a wok ring. Wok rings can be purchased separately through your
Fisher & Paykel dealer or Customer Care. To use, place the wok ring over the grates,
making sure the small protrusions on its bottom straddle the grate fingers. The wok ring
should be stable and unable to rotate.

CARE AND CLEANING
ALWAYS NEVER
• Read these instructions and the 'Safety and warnings'
section before you start cleaning your range.
• Before cleaning or removing any part, make sure that
everything on the range has been turned off.
• Unless suggested otherwise in the chart following,
allow any part to cool to a safe temperature before
cleaning. If you do need to handle a warm or hot
part take extreme care. Wear long protective mitts to
avoid burns from steam or hot surfaces.
• Try using any cleaner on a small area first, to ensure it
doesn’t stain.
• See the pages following this chart for instructions on
removing and replacing different parts of the range
for cleaning or maintenance.
• Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged if you move
the range for cleaning. Failure to do this may result in
the oven tipping which may cause death.
• Use aerosol cleaners until the range
has completely cooled. The propellant
substance in these cleaners could catch
fire in the presence of heat.
• Let soiling or grease accumulate
anywhere in or on the range. This will
make future cleaning more difficult and
may present a fire hazard.
• Use any abrasive or harsh cleaners,
cloths, scouring pads or steel wool. These
will scratch your range and damage its
appearance.
• Use a steam cleaner to clean any part of
the range.
• Lift the black grill and griddle frames off
the cooktop.

• Soften any stubborn stains
using a hot soapy cloth before
cleaning with a solution of mild
detergent and hot water. Wipe
dry with a microfiber cloth.
• For extra shine, use a suitable
stainless steel cleaner and
polish, following manufacturer’s
instructions. Always rub the
stainless steel in the direction of
the polish lines.
• Wipe with a damp cloth using a
solution of mild detergent and
hot water then dry thoroughly
with microfiber cloth.
• If desired, the dials can be
removed for cleaning. Before
removing, ensure that dial is set
to OFF. Remove only one dial
at a time ensuring that you refit
completely and correctly.
• Always read the label to ensure
your stainless steel cleaner does
not contain chlorine compounds
as these are corrosive and may
damage the appearance of
your cooktop.
• Do not use stainless steel cleaner
on the dials, oven handles, or the
toe kick. These are not stainless
steel parts and their surface may be
damaged by stainless steel cleaner.
• When cleaning the back trim and
the top of the oven door, ensure
liquid does not run down the vents.
• Do not use stainless steel cleaner
on these parts, as doing so may
damage their coating.
• The dials are not interchangeable:
if removed for cleaning, do so one
at a time. This is to ensure that they
are replaced correctly.
