GB
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
Automatic Cooking
The Main Oven (only) 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
manually.
Hints on Automatic Cooking
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook
and require approximately the same temperature.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished
or about to finish cooking on your return to the oven.
This will ensure the food has not cooled down and
does not
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes
into the oven, ideally straight from the refrigerator.
Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed
thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. We advise that warm food should never be placed
in the oven if there is to be a delay period. Stews
prepared by frying the meat and vegetables should
be cooked as soon as possible.
require reheating before serving.
5. We advise dishes containing left-over cooked
poultry or meat, for example Shepherds Pie, should
not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay
period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow
method, so that the delay period is kept to a
minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth
in certain foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed
start should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle
during the delay period, so it is best to add these
ingredients just before serving.
9. 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.
10.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full
to prevent boiling over.
11.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.
12.Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
Timer Operation
1. Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.
2. Check that the electricity supply to the oven is
turned On.
3. Check that the oven clock is at the right time of
day.

The Working of the Heating Zones
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.

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.

Care of the Ceramic Hob
GB
Do Not
In order to keep your ceramic hob in good
condition, follow these simple guidelines:
Do not stare at halogen heating units.
Do not cook directly on the hob surface without a
cooking utensil, as this will result in damage
to the surface of the hob.
Do not use the hob as a worktop surface as
damage may occur to the smooth surface of
the hob.
Do not drag or slide utensils on the hob surface, as
this will cause scratches in the surface of the
hob.
Do not allow a cooking utensil to come into contact
with the hob surround.
Do not place anything between the base
of the utensil and the ceramic
hob, e.g. do not use asbestos
mats, aluminium or wok stand.
Do not leave any utensils, food or combustible
items on the hob when it is not in use.
Do not place aluminium or plastic foil, or plastic
containers on the hob.
Do not leave the hotplates or cooking areas
switched On unless they are being used.
Do not leave heating zones uncovered when they
are switched On. We recommend not to
place large preserving pans or fish kettles
across two heating areas.
Do not leave utensils partly covering the
heated areas. Always ensure that
they are placed centrally over the
heated areas and have the same
diameter as the heating area used.
Do
Always ensure that the bottom of the pan is both
clean and dry. Dirt or moisture between the
pan and the hob can cause pitting of the
surface of the glass.
We do not recommend the use of utensils with a
base diameter greater than 25cm (l0ins).
Pressure cookers or other large pans should be
used on the front cooking areas.
IMPORTANT As with any cooking appliance
there could be some fire risk attached to the heating
of oil, particularly for deep fat frying, cooking
utensils containing oil must not be left
unattended (e.g. to answer the telephone) on or in
close proximity to the patterned cooking areas.
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely
cover the appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full with fat
or oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the
heating or cooking period.
4. Do not try to fry too much food at a time,
especially frozen food. This only lowers the
temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting
in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and
lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen
foods, in particular, will cause frothing and
spitting, if added too quickly.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from
streaks of oil or fat.
8. Never allow excessive splashing of oil onto the
hob.
Safety requirements for deep fat frying
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:
1. Switch Off the electricity supply.
NEVER attempt to move the pan - burns and
injuries are caused almost invariably by picking
up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.
2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.
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.
When smothering the flames DO ENSURE that
your FACE and ARMS are WELL PROTECTED
from the flames to save you from becoming hurt.
3. After the fire has been extinguished LEAVE THE
PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES
BEFORE MOVING IT.
4. If you fail to put the fire out, call the fire brigade
immediately.
Always ensure that saucepan handles are positioned
safely.
Always take extra care when cooking foods with a
high sugar content eg. jam, as spillage will
cause damage to the surface of the glass.
Always clean spills immediately (see Care and
Cleaning).

Grill Pan and Handle
Grill Pan Handle
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle
securely before use:
1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external
hooks embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)
2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits
exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2)
and holds the pan from the bottom.
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The
best results are achieved by placing the oven rack
on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into
the grill pan will make the collection of grease
particles more efficient and prevent the formation of
smoke.

Top Oven
Cookery Notes
GB
The top oven should be used to cook small
quantities of food.The oven is designed so that the
grill element operates at a reduced heat output, this
is combined with a heating element situated
underneath the floor of the oven.
To ensure even cooking of the food it is important
that cooking utensils are positioned correctly on the
oven shelf so that the element is directly above.
There are two cooking positions, the shelf placed on
runner 1 or 2 (from the base), do not use shelves
upside down.
Food/utensils must not be placed directly on the
oven floor.
There should always be at least 25mm (1in) between
the top of the food and the grill element.
Warning: Items stored in top oven will get hot when
main oven is in use.
Operation
To heat the oven, turn the control knob
clockwise.The top oven pilot light will come on and
remain on until the oven reaches the required
temperature.The pilot light will automatically go on
and off during cooking as the thermostat maintains
the correct temperature.
Cooking meat/poultry
Small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3 lbs), or poultry,
up to 3.6kg (8 lbs) (60cm cookers) in weight can be
roasted in a small meat pan in the top oven. Larger
joints of meat/poultry weighing more than 3.6kg (8
lbs) (60cm cookers) should be roasted in the main
oven.
Do not use the grill pan as a meat pan in the
top oven as air circulation will be seriously
restricted.

Main Oven
Cookery Notes
The oven is fitted with wirework shelf supports and
two rod shelves.
To heat the oven turn the knob clockwise, selecting
the require temperature between 80°C (176°F) and
230°C (450°F) as recommended in the temperature
chart. The pilot light will immediately come on and
remain on until the oven reaches the required
temperature. This light will then automatically go off
and on during cooking as the oven thermostat
maintains the correct temperature.
It should be noted that at the end of the 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.
Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more
quickly,and generally cooks food at a lower
temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is
often unnecessary.However, foods such as bread,
scones,Yorkshire pudding,do benefit from being
placed in a pre-heated oven.
The 'oven temperature charts' are a guide only,
giving approximate cooking temperatures and
times.To suit personal taste and requirements, it
may be necessary to increase or decrease
temperatures by 10°C.
Unless otherwise indicated in the charts food should
be placed in a cold oven, i.e. without pre-heating. If
food is placed in an already hot oven, the
suggested cooking time should be reduced,
depending on the type and quantity of food being
cooked.
Oven positions
Since the distribution of heat in the circulaire fan
oven is very even, most foods will cook satisfactorily
on any shelf position, but the shelves should be
evenly spaced.
The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven
when cooking large quantities of food. Additional
shelves can be purchased through your oven
supplier or our Parts Department (see Key Contacts,
back page).
Food or utensils should Never be placed
directly an the floor of the oven for cooking.
Never use more than 3 shelves in the oven as air
circulation will be seriously restricted.To ensure oven
circulation do not use meat pans larger than 390 x
300mm (15"x12") and baking trays no larger than
330 x 255mm (13"x 10"), these should be positioned
centrally on the oven shelf.
Food should not be placed directly on the floor of
the oven. To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rod
shelves which are not in use, should be removed
from the oven.
Temperature and time
When all three shelves are used to cook large
quantities of food for home freezing or parties, it
may be necessary to increase the cooking times
given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to
allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to
load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking
trays should have an equal gap at either side of the
oven.
Frozen meat and poultry
Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted
slowly, preferably in a domestic refrigerator (allowing
5-6 hours per 450g (1 lb), or at room temperature
(allowing 2-3 hours per 450g (1 lb).

'S' SLOW setting
"Slow" cook is identified as 'S' on the oven
temperature scale. This is used for slow cooking,
keeping food warm and warming plates for short
periods. Extra care should be taken when warming
bone china, as it may be damaged in a hot oven.
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the
oven floor as this could damage both the oven
lining and the plates which are being warmed.
Advantages of "SLOW" cooking are:
The oven stays cleaner because there is less
splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear
of overcooking.
Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.
Fully loading the oven can be economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by
up to 2 hours.
Operation:
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure
the door is fully closed.
2. Select 'S' (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning

2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a
minimum of 6 hours, however, if they are cooked
for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their
appearance may be noticed.
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry
over 2.0kg (4 lb 8oz). We do not recommend that
joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking
on the slow setting.

'STAY CLEAN'Oven liners
Refer to the instructions below for cleaning the 'Stay
clean' panels.
How "STAY CLEAN" works:
The surfaces of the 'Stay clean' oven liners are
treated on the mottled face with a special vitreous
enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At
temperatures of 220°C (425°F) or above, the special
surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed.
The higher the temperature the more effective it is.
In most cases normal cooking operations at this
temperature will permit this cleaning operation to
proceed during cooking. However if higher cooking
temperatures are not used regularly it may be
necessary in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run
the oven without a meat pan at maximum setting for
a couple of hours.

or mild non-abrasive cleaner. (If in doubt try the
cleaner on a small area of trim which is not
noticeable in normal use).

water, dry with a soft clean cloth.

oven chassis, if necessary remove the seal by
carefully unhooking the corner clips.
Take care that the rating label edges are not lifted
during cleaning, and furthermore that the lettering is
not blurred or removed.
