cooker itself with a screwdriver*.
N.B.: the following installation procedure must be
carried out by a qualified electrician. The electrical
installation must comply with the IEE Regulations,
Building & local By-Lays.
For the installation of the feeding cable carry out the
following operations:
1 Open the terminal board by inserting a
screwdriver into the side
tabs of the cover. Use
the screwdriver as a
lever by pushing it down
to open the cover (see
diagram).
2 Loosen the cable
clamp screw and
remove it, using a
screwdriver as a lever
(see figure).
3 Slacken the wire
contact screws L-N, then fasten the wires
under the screw heads,
respecting the colour
code: Black/Blue (N),
Red/Brown (L) and Bare

NOTE: This appliance
must not be fitted on a
platform.
The cooker is
Moving the Cooker
designed to fit
between kitchen
cabinets spaced
500mm apart. The
space either side
need only be sufficient
to allow withdrawal
of the cooker for
servicing. It can be
used with cabinets
one side or both as
well as in a corner
setting. It can also be
used free-standing.
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.
Before moving your cooker check that it is cool, and
switch off at the cooker control unit.
Once the connections have been made, tighten all
the terminal screws fully.
Fasten the supply cable in place with the clamp
and close the cover of the terminal board.
Movement of your cooker is most easily achieved by
lifting the front as follows:
Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable
grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof,
avoiding any grill elements.
Note: Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy.
Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not
damaged.

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
Remove all packing from the appliance before switching on for the first
time.
Understand the controls prior to using the appliance.
Keep children away from the appliance when cooking as the surfaces will
get extremely hot during and after use.
Turn controls off when not in use.
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 place pans centrally over the hotplate making sure handles are
kept away from the edge of the hob and cannot become heated by other
hotplates or pans.
Always take care to avoid heat or steam burns when operating the
controls.
Always turn off the electricity supply at the wall switch and allow the
appliance to cool before cleaning (or changing an oven lamp if fitted).
Always make sure the shelves are in the correct position before switching
on the oven or grill.
Always keep the oven/grill door closed when the appliance is not in use.
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.
Always take care when removing items from the grill compartment when
the lower oven is in use as the contents will be hot.
Always turn off the electricity supply to the appliance at the wall switch
should any glass panel (if fitted) crack or shatter and then DO NOT USE
THE APPLIANCE until repaired.
During use, the oven becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside the oven.
· The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation
of food, in accordance with the instructions outlined in this
booklet. Any other use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room)
constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The manufacturer
may not be held liable for any damage resulting from improper,
incorrect and unreasonable use of the appliance.
Never
Never stare at Halogen heating units.
Never leave children unsupervised where a cooking appliance is installed
as all surfaces will be hot during and after its 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 leave anything on the hob surface when unattended and not in use.
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 place flammable or plastic items on or near the hob.
Never fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, or use a lid.
DO NOT LEAVE DEEP FAT FRYING PANS UNATTENDED WHILE
COOKING.
Never use the appliance as a room heater.
Never use the grill to warm plates.
Never dry any items on either the hob or oven doors.
Never install the appliance next to curtains or other soft furnishings.
· Never operate the grill with the grill door closed as this will
cause the appliance to over heat.
· Never use ‚steam cleaners’.
SAFETY ADVICE IN CASE OF A CHIP-PAN FIRE
In the event of a chip pan fire 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.
! The appliance should not be operated by people (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, by inexperienced
individuals or by anyone who is not familiar with the product. These
individuals should, at the very least, be supervised by someone who
assumes responsibility for their safety or receive preliminary instructions
relating to the operation of the appliance.

Control Knobs
The knobs for the hotplates can be rotated in either
direction to provide variable heat control, the Main
Oven knob can only be rotated clockwise from the Off
position.
!: Always ensure that all controls are in the OFF
position, when the appliance is not in use.
The hob hot warning lights will operate soon after each
of the heating areas have been switched on. Each
warning light will remain illuminated until each heating
area has cooled down.
Turn the control to 12 for fast cooking. To cook more
slowly or simmer, turn the control to a lower setting
according to the size of the saucepan and the amount
of liquid. The two small Hotplates are specially for
smaller pans, low temperature cooking and simmering.
Do Not leave a hotplate switched on without a pan
as this wastes energy and may shorten the life of the
hotplate.
Operating the controls when the grill is in use
In common with all cookers having controls sited above
the grill compartment, care must be taken when setting
the controls, due to hot air being emitted from the grill
compartment.
