Use of Hotplates
Practical Advice on Using the Burners
To use the burners as efficiently as possible, some basic guidelines should be follo wed:
Use cookware that is the right size for each burner (see table) in order to prevent the flame from spreading
beyond the bottom of the cookware.
Only use cookware with flat bottoms.
As soon as the boiling point is reached, turn the knob to the lowest setting.
Always use lids with pots and pans.
Burner ø Cookware diameter (cm)
Fast (R) 24 - 26 Semi Fast (S) 16 - 20
Auxiliary (A) 10 - 14
N.B.: On models equipped with a reduction grid, the grid should only be used with the auxiliary burner when cookware with a diameter of less than 12 cm is used.
1. Press the ignition button and then push in and turn the control knob of the chosen burner anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol. Continue to press the ignition button until the sparks light the gas.
2. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the desired setting. Only turn the control knob between the large flame symbol and the small flame symbol for adjusting the setting.
3. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O.
DO NOT use the hotplate unless all pan supports are in position. DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be unstable. DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan supports. DO NOT use the glass lid (if fitted) as a working surface.
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignitor for lighting the gas. To ensure rapid lighting of the burners every time they are used, the ignitors must be kept clean and dry. Remove any food spillage or cleaning materials from the electrode using a small nylon brush such as a tooth brush. Access to the electrode can be achieved by lifting off the loose burner parts carefully when the burners are cool.
When the hotplate burner bodies and caps are removed for cleaning, be careful not to drop any food particles or cleaning materials into the burner bases, to avoid the possibility of blocking the gas jets.
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit may appear on the top edge of the pan support fingers. See 'Care and Cleaning' section for cleaning information.
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR DEEP F AT FR YING
1. Never fill chip pans more than one third full with oil or fat.
2. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooling period.
3. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
4. 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.
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.
HOW T O DEAL WITH A FA T FIRE
1. Do not move the pan.
2. Turn off the hotplate burners.
3. Smother the flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth to extinguish the fire. Do not use water or a fire extinguisher as the force of it may spread the burning fat or oil over the edge of the pan.
4. Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving it.

Slide the grill pan along the runner towards the rear of the grill compartment until it stops. An odour may be noticed when first using the grill - this schould cease after a short period of use.
Grill can be started from cold but for the best result preheat for approximately five minutes. Most cooking is done with the heat on full, but it may be necessary after sealing the
food to reduce the heat as required. For au gratin dishes eg. Macaroni Cheese and meringue toppings eg. Baked Alaska place the dish on the floor of the grill compartment. The base of the grill pan can be used for warming fruit garnishes on the reduced setting.
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat and create a fire hazard.
Relighting‘ the burner
Fixing the Grill Pan Handle
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan, to facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the grill pan handle securely in position before use. The handle fits onto the grill pan edge with the small recess, Fig.1. Tilt the handle over the recess and slide it towards the centre, Fig.2. Ensure the handle is fully located. Insert the washer and fixing screw and tighten fully to ensure handle is secured, Fig.3.

In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute
Anything requiring long slow cooking such as casseroles and rich fruit cakes can be put into a cold oven. Satisfactory results can also be obtained with creamed mixture, rich pastries or yeast mixtures, but for perfection we recommend preheating the oven for about 15 minutes.
The maximum weight of poultry that can be accommodated is 8kg (18 Ibs) of suitable shape. It is important to check that the bird DOES NOT overhang the burner at the back of the oven.
It is vitally important to strictly adhere to the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.
1. If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it in a clean container as quickly as possible.
2. Completely thaw frozen food in the refrigerator before reheating.
3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the hotplate or in a hot oven, Mk. 6, and then serve immediately.
4. Only re-heat food once.
These should always be placed in a pre-heated oven ideally on the first or second shelf position. Follow the packet instructions for cooking time.
ALUMINIUM FOIL If using Aluminium Foil:
1. Remember that it is important to increase the cooking time by one third.
2. Never allow the foil to touch the sides of the oven.
3. Never cover the oven interior with foil.
4. Never cover the oven shelves with foil.

Care and Cleaning
Grill
Control Panel
Decorative T rims
Doors
Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it is best to wash these items immediately after use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again. Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill runners and the floor of the compartment. Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build up of soiling. The recommended method of cleaning is to wipe over the trims with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water or mild non-abrasive cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner on a small area of trim which is not noticeable in normal use). Then, after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth.
Wipe over the outer door glass panels with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water, then after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth. Ensure that glass doors
are not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows. Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) – open the door fully and unscrew the two screws securing
the glass panel, taking care not to allow the glass to fall. The glass panel may now be washed at the sink. Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. Ensure the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows. Take particular care not to damage the inner surface which is coated with a heat reflective layer. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft cloth. For slight soiling the inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from the door. Warning: Oven must not be operated with inner door glass removed. Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort the door seals. Do not lift the door seal from the 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 fur thermore that the lettering is not blurred or removed.
Ovens
Oven Shelf Supports
Oven Lamp Replacement
Remove the rod shelves and grill pan. Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the rod shelves, grill pan and the floor of the oven.
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher safe. To remove hold the support at the front and pull away from the oven side, this can then be cleaned in a sink or a dishwasher. When removed it allows access to the oven side, which can be cleaned with warm soapy water. To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear fixing hole and push in the front leg.
Open the oven door and remove the rod shelves. Using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers grip the light glass dome, unscrew anti-clockwise and lift. Reach into the aperture with fingers, and unscrew the lamp anticlockwise. Fit replacement lamp (15W 300°C rated SES), refit dome.
WARNING: To avoid electric shocks - please ensure that the electricity supply to the
appliance is switched off and the appliance is fully cold, before removing the lamp lens.
