Mains Connection

Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate, which is situated on the outer rear panel.

The model number and serial number are located on the front of the cooker, as shown on the Feature's page.

The cooker must be connected by a competent person such as one who is a, NICEIC registered contractor to a suitable double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of 32A and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm (applicable to newer properties, older properties where a 30A double pole control unit and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm is acceptable).

The double pole control unit should be fitted adjacent to the cooker, in accordance with IEE regulations. The control unit must be within 2 metres of but not directly above the appliance and should be easily accessible in the event of an emergency. The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a conductor size of 6mm2, minimum.

Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the rear access cover. The mains cable must pass through the cable clamp adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable should be used to allow the cooker to be pulled out for servicing.

Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any brackets affixed to the rear panel and is not trapped to the rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between cabinets.

Levelling

Four feet are fitted which can be adjusted up or down to set the height (900mm - 930mm) and level the cooker.

The feet can be simply screwed in or out to lower or raise the cooker.

After the correct height is achieved, lock the feet into position by tightening the locking nut using an open ended spanner.

CAUTION: Some soft floor coverings may get damaged if the cooker is not moved carefully. NOTE: Ensure oven shelves are level by using a spirit level on the rod shelves.

Siting the Cooker

The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets spaced 600mm apart. The space either side need only be sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing and cleaning.

It can be used with cabinets one side or both as well

as in an angled corner setting. It can also be used freestanding. GB Adjacent side walls which project above hob level,

must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm.

Note: This appliance must NOT be fitted on a platform.

Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to the ceramic glass.

The HOT HOB indicator light:

This indicates that the temperature of the corresponding cooking zone is greater than 60°C, even when the heating element has been switched off but is still hot.

Rear Left Dual Circuit hotplate

(models HUE 61 and HAE60) GB

This is a dual purpose hotplate with two elements. The settings on the glass control panel will show 1 - 4 when the control knob is turned clockwise to indicate that the whole hotplate is turned on and can be used for a larger pan, 4 is the highest setting. With the control knob turned anti-clockwise the settings on the glass control panel will show 1 - 4 to indicate that only the inner part of the hotplate is switched on.

This is an energy saving feature and is useful for cooking with smaller pans or for simmering. The control will be OFF when the control knob is turned to the O position.

Choice of saucepan's

It is essential that the saucepan's you use on the ceramic hob are suitable.

ALWAYS USE:

•Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.

•saucepan's manufactured from aluminium (enamelled or machined) or stainless steel.

•Correct size saucepan's. The base of the pan must cover the heating zone completely.

•saucepan's with lids which are well fitting to reduce cooking time and energy use.

NEVER USE:

•Pans with thin, distorted or uneven bases as these will extend cooking times, waste electricity and cause damaging, local hotspots on the glass surface.

•Pans with ridged or recessed bases.

•Pans with damaged or rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.

•Glass or glass ceramic utensils.
