Introduction

Your new appliance is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only applicable if the appliance has been installed in accordance with the installation instructions detailed in this booklet.

To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.

The appliance is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.

When the cooker is first used an odour may be emitted, this will cease after a period of use

To help remove the ‘new’ smell, heat up the empty ovens to maximum temperature for a minimum of two or three hours, keeping the oven doors closed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated (e.g. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes.

It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room until the smell has ceased.

This odour is due to temporary finish on oven liners and elements and also any moisture absorbed by the insulation.

*The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:

(a)Has been used solely in accordance with the Users Instruction Book.

(b)Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate attached to this equipment.

(c)Has not been subjected to misuse or accident or been modified or repaired by any person other than the authorised employee or agent.

Safety Information

When used properly your appliance is completely safe but as with any electrical product there are certain precautions that must be observed.

PLEASE READ THE PRECAUTIONS BELOW BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE.

Always

●Always make sure you remove all packaging and literature from inside the oven and grill compartments before switching on for the first time.

●Always make sure you understand the controls prior to using the appliance.

●Always keep children away from the appliance when in use as the surfaces will get extremely hot during and after cooking.

●Always make sure all controls are turned off when you have finished cooking and when not in use.

●Always stand back when opening an oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to disperse.

●Always use dry, good quality oven gloves when removing items from the oven/grill.

●Always take care to avoid heat/steam burns when operating the controls.

●Always turn off the electricity supply at the wall switch before cleaning and allow the appliance to cool.

●Always make sure the shelves are in the correct position before switching on the oven.

●Always keep the oven and grill doors closed when the appliance is not in use.

●Always take care when removing utensils from the top oven when the main oven is in use as the contents may be hot.

●Always keep the appliance clean as a build up of grease or fat from cooking can cause a fire.

●Always follow the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.

●Always keep ventilation slots clear of obstructions.

●Always refer servicing to a qualified appliance service engineer.

●During use the oven becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven,

SAFETY ADVICE

IN THE EVENT OF A CHIP PAN OR ANY OTHER PAN FIRE:

1.TURN OFF THE COOKER APPLIANCE AT THE WALL SWITCH.

2.COVER THE PAN WITH A FIRE BLANKET OR DAMP CLOTH, this will smother the flames and extinguish the fire.

3.LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT. Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing outside with it. NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT A PAN FIRE as the force of the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over. Never use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.

Safety Information

Never

●Never leave children unsupervised where a cooking appliance is installed as all cooking surfaces will be hot during and after use.

●Never allow anyone to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

●Never store items above the appliance that children may attempt to reach.

●Never remove the oven shelves whilst the oven is hot.

●Never heat up unopened food containers as pressure can build up causing the container to burst.

●Never store chemicals, food stuffs or pressurised containers in or on the appliance, or in cabinets immediately above or next to the appliance.

●Never operate the grill with the door closed as this will cause the appliance to overheat.

●Never use the appliance as a room heater.

The Cooking Systems in your Double Oven

Your new oven is equipped with three different cooking systems:

1.Conventional Heating (Top Oven) - with upper and lower heat. This system is

particularly suitable for roasting and baking on one shelf only.

2.Grilling (Top Oven) - Has a full width, fully controllable grill. The grill also has an economy setting which enables you to use just the left section.

NOTE: The oven door should be open when grilling.

(See page 17.)

3.Fan Cooking (Lower Oven) - the fan oven operates by constantly blowing heated air from an element wrapped around the fan into the oven. This gives improved efficiency and, in general, enables the use of lower temperatures for cooking. It also means that there is less need to be particular about shelf positions and that you can bake at more than one level simultaneously (Batch Baking).

It should be noted that at the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.

Cooling Fan: A gentle flow of air will be blown below the control panel when any selector switch is used.

Note: Whenever the appliance has been used, the cooling fan may run on or restart itself after all the controls have been turned off. This indicates that the appliance is still warm.

Oven Interior The oven lights are operated when their respective oven control is used. Lights (N.B. Not all models have a top oven interior light).

The main oven has a light only position.

Slow Cooking The main oven has a “Slow Cook Setting” this can be used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for a short period.

Note: It is advisable to check that all oven controls have been switched off when you have finished using the appliance.

Oven Timer Operation

Note: Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the ovens can be used.

AUTOMATIC COOKING

The Top Oven and Main Oven can be controlled by the automatic timer. When the timer control has been set for one oven, it is possible to use the other oven only during the same automatic cooking programme.

NEVER operate the grill when the ovens are set to cook automatically because the oven cavity can become warm and this may cause

bacterial growth in food.

HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING

1.Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.

2.To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the food is ready when you require it.

3.Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.

4.Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as possible.

5.If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for auto cooking, keep the delay start time to a minimum.

6.Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could cause the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.

7.We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g. Shepherd's Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay period.

8.Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in food.

9.Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it is best to add these ingredients just before serving.

10.Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the oven.

11.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.

12.Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.

13.Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.

14.Only reheat food once.
