you may notice a smell and some smoke.

Gas & Electrical connection

Please refer to installation instructions
for the Gas & Electrical Safety Regulations
and the Ventilation Requirements.

In your own interest, and that of safety,
it is the law that all gas appliances be
installed by competent persons, who will
ensurethat the installation is in accordance
with “The Gas Safety (Installation & Use)
Regulations 1994”, & the “The Gas Safety

Environmental Protection

Glen Dimplex Cooking is committed to
protecting the environment and oper­ates an Environmental Management
System which complies with BS EN
ISO 14001:1996.

Disposal of packaging

• All our packaging materials are
recyclable and environmentally
friendly.

• Please help us to protect our
environment by disposing of all
packaging in an environmentally
friendly manner.

• Please contact your local authority
for the nearest recycling centre.

Caution: Packaging materials can
pose a risk of suffocation - keep away
from children.

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 of a

window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.

Stability bracket

If the cooker is to be fitted with a
flexible inlet connection, a stability
bracket should also be fitted to engage
in the back of the cooker. Make sure
this is re-engaged whenever you move
the cooker for cleaning.

If the ignition fails:

• Check there is a spark when the
ignition button is depressed. If
there is no spark, check that the
electricity supply is switched on at
the cooker control box.

• Check that the gas supply is
switched on.

Moving the cooker

Do not attempt to move the cooker by
pulling on the doors or handles. Open
the door and grasp the frame of the
cooker, taking care that the door does
not shut on your fingers.

Take care to avoid damage to soft or
uneven floor coverings when moving
the appliance. Some cushioned vinyl
floor coverings may not be designed
to withstand sliding appliances without
marking or damage.

BE SAFE - NOT SORRY

When you are cooking, keep
children away from the vicinity
of the appliance.

This product is designed as a domestic
cooking appliance for the preparation
and cooking of domestic food
products, and should not be used for
any other purpose.

• Remove all packaging, protective
films and oils from the appliance
before using for the first time.

• Make sure you read and
understand the instructions before
using the appliance.

• Keep electrical leads short so they
do not drape over the appliance
or the edge of the worktop.

• Keep all flammable materials (such
as curtains, furnishings & clothing)
away from the appliance.

• Parts of the appliance may be hot
during or immediately after use.
Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside
the oven. Allow sufficient time for
the appliance to cool after
switching off.

• Never use the appliance for
heating a room.

• Do not drape tea towels over the
flue vents or doors, as this creates
a fire hazard.

• When opening the appliance
door, take care to avoid skin
contact with any steam which may
escape from the cooking.

• Do not use aluminium foil to cover
the grill pan, or put items wrapped
in foil under the grill as this creates
a fire hazard. The high reflectivity
can also damage the element.

• Do not use the oven with the door
inner glass panel removed (glass
oven doors only).

• Use oven gloves when removing
hot food / dishes from the oven or
grill. The oven / grill and utensils
will be very hot when in use.

• Do not use foil on oven shelves, or
allow it to block the oven flue, as
this creates a fire hazard, and
prevents heat circulation.

• When cooking heavy items - eg;
turkeys - do not pull the oven shelf
out with the item still on the shelf.

• Switch off the electricity supply
before replacing the oven light bulb,
to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Warning: This appliance must be
earthed.

When you have finished
cooking check that all controls
are in the off position.

USING THE HOB

Ignition

Push in and turn the selected control
knob anticlockwise to the ‘full on’ position
and press the ignition switch (if fitted),
or hold a lighted match or taper to the
burner, until the burner lights. Turn the
control knob to the required setting.

Adjust the burner flame so that it does
not extend over the pan base.

To turn off, push in the control knob
and turn clockwise until the dot on the
control knob is below the dot on the
facia panel.

To simmer

The simmer position is marked by the
small flame symbol.

Once lit turn the selected control knob
anticlockwise
symbol (FULL ON) to the small flame symbol.

You may hear a slight popping noise
when the hob burners are operating
and this is quite normal, but if anything
about the cooker appears unusual,
such as change in flame appearance,
or the operation of controls - seek
expert advice.

past the large flame

Pans

For optimum safety and performance, we
recommend the use of flat bottomed pans
with a base diameter of minimum 100mm
(4”) and maximum 250mm (10”).

Do not use traditional style double
pans (excluding steamer pans), rim
based pans, old misshapen pans or
any pan which is unstable when
placed on a flat surface.

Position pans over the centre of the
burners, resting on the pan supports.
If positioned off centre, smaller pans
may be unstable.

When cooking with fat or oil, never
leave unattended.

Turn pan handles to a safe position,
so they are out of reach of children,
not overhanging the appliance, and
cannot be caught accidentally.

Commercial simmering aids should
not be used as they create excessive
temperatures that can damage the
surface and may cause a hazard.

Pan supports

Always make sure the pan supports
are replaced correctly, and located in
the hob spillage well.

USING THE HOB

To save gas

• Use the size of pan most suited to
the size of the burner - ie; larger
pans on the larger burners, smaller
pans on the smaller burners.

• Adjust the flames so that they do
not lick up the sides of the pan.

• Put lids on saucepans and only heat
the amount of liquid you need.

• When liquids boil, reduce the control
setting to maintain a simmer.

• Consider the use of a pressure
cooker for the cooking of a
complete meal.

• Potatoes and vegetables will cook
quicker if chopped into smaller
pieces.

The fold down lid

Caution: Glass lids may shatter when
heated. Turn off all the burners before
shutting the lid.

When opening and closing the lid, use
the cooler outer sides of the lid trim.

The lid must be opened fully, so there
is no danger of it closing while the hob
is being used.

The appliance is fitted with a switch­back system, which will automatically
turn off the hotplate controls if they
are inadvertently left on as the lid
is closed.

The lid is not intended to be used as a
work surface, as it becomes hot when
any part of the cooker is in use, and
the surface may be scratched if items
with rough or sharp surfaces are
placed on it.

Hold the control knob in for 15 sec­ondsthe release. If the burner fails to
light within this time, release the con­trol knob and wait one minute before
attempting to re-ignite.

USING THE GRILL

Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the grill is used,
young children should be kept
away.

Detachable grill pan handle

Place the handle over the edge of the
grill pan, at the narrow side edges.
Slide the handle to the centre, and
locate between the handle position
indicators.

the handle to pour hot fats from the
grill pan.

Food for grilling should be positioned
centrally on the trivet.

Aluminium foil

Using aluminium foil to cover the grill
pan, or putting items wrapped in foil
under the grill can create a fire hazard,
and the high reflectivity can damage
the grill element.

The cooling fan

When the grill is switched on, you will
hear the cooling fan come on - this
keeps the fascia and control knobs of
the appliance cool during grilling. The
fan may continue to operate for a peri­od after the grill control has been
switched off.

The handle should be removed from
the pan during grilling, to prevent
overheating.

The handle is designed for removing /
inserting the grill pan under the grill
when grilling.

If cleaning the grill pan when it is hot,
use oven gloves to move it. Do not

use

chicken joint pieces, use the low shelf
position.
