Introduction

To help you make the best use of your cooker,
PLEASE READ THIS BOOKLET CAREFULLY.
Your new cooker is guaranteed and will give lasting
service.
The guarantee is only applicable if the cooker has
been installed in accordance with the Installation
Instructions.
The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use
and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any
other installation.

When first using the cooker 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 any
temporary finish and also any moisture absorbed by
the insulation.

Note: Always ensure that all controls are in the OFF
position, when the appliance is not in use.

Operating the control 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.

The main oven has a ‘S’ setting specially designed to
reduce energy usage. Full details of this can be found
in the Slow cooking section of this book.

Use of Hotplates

Note:
Under no circumstances should the hob be
used with aluminium foil in contact with the
hob surface.

The controls set the hotplates at six pre-set
power levels. Each control can be used to
select one of six temperature settings from a
minimum at position 1 to a maximum at
position 6.

CONTROL SETTINGS GUIDE

This is provided only as a guide – settings also
depend on the type of pan used and the quality of
food.

Safety requirements for deep fat frying

1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely
cover the appropriate heating area.

2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.

3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the
heating or cooking period.

4. Never 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 to 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.

Practical advice on using the hob

• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that
they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.

Knob Position Type of food

1 To melt butter, chocolate, etc.

1 or 2 To heat food gently.

To keep small amounts of water simmering.
To heat sauces, containing egg yolks and butter.
To simmer: stews, meat, fish, vegetables, fruit.

3 To heat solid and liquid foods.

Keep water boiling.
Thaw frozen vegetables.
Make 2-3 egg omelettes.

4 or 5 To cook foods, just above simmering.

To maintain 'rolling' boil for preserve making.

5 or 6 To seal meat and fry fish.

6 Frying potatoes.

Bringing water to the boil.
Deep fat frying.
Dissolve sugar for preserve making.

• Always use pans with a diameter that is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use
all the heat produced.

• Always make sure that the base of the pan is
completely clean and dry: this ensures that the
pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and
that both the pans and the hob remain effective
for a longer period of time.

• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on
gas burners: the heat concentration on gas
burners may have warped the base of the pan,
causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.

• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a
pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone
to become damaged.

Grilling

Grilling

A switch operated by the door changes the heating
element configuration between grill and oven
operation. When the door is open, the top inner
element is activated for intense downward heat;
when the door is closed, the top outer and lower
elements are activated to provide even oven
heating.

To operate the grill proceed as follows:To operate the grill proceed as follows:

To operate the grill proceed as follows:

To operate the grill proceed as follows:To operate the grill proceed as follows:

 Open the grill door.
 Pre-heat the grill on setting 6 for approximately 5

minutes (see chart on guide to grilling).

 Fix the grill pan handle securely in position. See

below.

 Food which only requires browning should be

placed directly on/in the grill pan in the grill pan
runner, or on the floor of the grill compartment.
(the grill pan grid may be removed.)

 Leave the control on setting 6 for toast, sealing

and fast cooking of foods. For thicker foods
requiring longer cooking turn the control to a lower
setting after the initial sealing, on both sides, on
setting 6. The thicker the food the lower the
control should be set.

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.

The food to be cooked should be placed on the grill
pan/grill pan food support.
Place the grill pan on the runners and push back to
the stop position when the grill pan is correctly
positioned beneath the grill element.

Main Oven

Oven Control

Heating of the oven is achieved by turning control
clockwise to the required temperature scale on the
control panel, as recommended in the temperature
charts. The indicator light will immediately come on
and will then automatically go off and on during
cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct
temperature.
The cooking charts provided in this book 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.
The oven is fitted with two rod shelves. The oven is
heated by two tubular sheathed elements located
under the floor of the oven and on the oven roof, inside
the cavity. 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.

Oven Positions

The correct positioning of food is indicated in the
temperature charts.
To prepare meat and poultry for roasting in your
conventional oven.
(a)Wipe the joint, dry well with a clean cloth, kitchen

tissue etc. and weigh it. Meat which has been
stored in a refrigerator should be allowed to come
to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes
before cook ing, and frozen meat or poultry must
be completely defrosted before placing in the
oven.

(b)The weight of any stuffing used should be added

to the oven ready weight of the meat / poultry
before calculating the cooking time.

(c)Place the joint in the meat pan supplied with your

cooker. Small joints weighing less than 1.75kg
(31/2 lbs) should be roasted in a smaller meat
pan/tin - or they may be ‘pot roasted’ - a small
joint in a large meat pan causes unnecessary
oven splashing and evaporation of meat juices.

(d)Additional fat should not be added, except for

veal, very lean meat or poultry which can either be

veryvery

‘larded’ with fat bacon or brushed
sparingly sparingly

sparingly sparingly

(e)Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry may be dusted

lightly with seasoned flour to give a crisp outer
surface. The skin of duck and goose should be
pricked to release excess fat during cooking, and
the rind of pork should be scored, brushed lightly
with oil, and rubbed with salt, to give crisp
crackling.

very

veryvery

(f) Potatoes for roasting only require to be brushed

with cooking oil or melted fat.

(g)It is not necessary to baste when roasting in an

electric oven and stock or liquid should not be
added to the meat pan since this only causes
unnecessary soiling, steam and condensation.

For optimum cooking performance, there must be
clearance between meat pan and oven sides. The meat
pan must be placed lengthways in the oven to allow for
air circulation.

Times and Temperatures for Roasting

The secret of succulent, tender meat, is not to roast it
too quickly, at too high a temperature. Best results
are obtained when roasting is carried out at a low
temperature. When a lower temperature is used, the
joint loses less weight, is more tender (too high a
temperature causes meat to be tough and dry) and
the splashing of fat onto the oven interior is reduced to
a minimum. When a complete meal is being cooked
in the oven, cooking time may need to be increased
and temperature may need to be raised for
approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking
period (for instance when cooking Yorkshire pudding
to serve with roast beef). The suggested times and
temperatures should be used as a guide, but may
vary according to:-

1. Whether you prefer meat rare, medium or well
done.

2. The size and shape of your joint.

(a)A short thick joint requires a longer cooking

period than a long thin joint.

(b)A small joint under 1.5kg (3 lbs) takes longer per

450g (1 lb) cook in the time given for ‘minutes’ per
450g (1 lb) without the ‘minutes’ over added.

(c)Boned/rolled and stuffed joints take longer to

cook through than those with a bone.

N.B.N.B.

N.B.

N.B.N.B.

Remember to switch off the oven control after cooking
is finished. If the door of the oven is left open for long
periods of time with the control switch ON, then the
grill element will become hot. The correct positioning

of food is indicated in the temperature charts.

WARNING! The oven is
provided with a stop sys­tem to extract the racks
and prevent them from
coming out of the oven.(1)
As shown in the drawing,
to extract them comple­tely, simply lift the racks,
holding them on the front

part, and pull (2).

The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert a meat thermometer into
the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat thermometer will
indicate when the required internal temp has been reached.

Using the Main Oven
for Other Functions

GB

‘S’ SLOW Setting

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
the Main Oven Control clockwise ensuring the oven
door is fully closed.

Storage and re-heating of food:

1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately,
place it in a clean container and cool as soon as
possible.

2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the
refrigerator before re-heating.

3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is
piping hot before serving.

4. Only re-heat food once.

Points to consider when preparing food
for “SLOW” cooking:

1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into
the oven ensuring enough room for air to circulate.

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 Ib) or
poultry over 2.0kg (4lb 8oz).
We do not recommend that joints of meat or poultry
are stuffed before cooking on the slow setting.

4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or
poultry at 170°C for 30 minutes before wrapping in foil
and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air
circulation) before turning the control to the slow
setting and cooking immediately.

5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are
thoroughly cooked by checking with a meat
thermometer before serving.

6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before
cooking. We do not recommend placing frozen food in
the oven to cook.

7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the
boil before placing in the oven.

8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal
(not airtight) and cover to the top with foil to prevent
loss of moisture.

9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even
sized small pieces to cook properly.

10. Always adjust seasoning before serving.

11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important that
the beans are soaked and then boiled fora minimum of
10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any
toxins.

12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be
necessary to check during cooking to avoid
overcooking.

Care and Cleaning

Electric sealed hotplates

The cleaning of sealed hotplates should be done when
they are cold, using a soap filled Brillo pad, following
the grain of the hotplate. This will ensure that any
stubborn, burnt on spillages are removed. Wipe over
with a damp clean cloth, making sure that all the
cleaner has been removed.
Finally, turn on hotplate to warm for a few minutes,
then smear with a little cooking oil to provide a
protective coating, or the restorative agent Homecare
Four Hob, available from our spares department or
leading supermarkets. The bezels will mellow with use
to a burnished gold colour, a soap filled Brillo pad will
help to keep them bright, care should be taken not to
damage the vitreous enamel hob surface.
Note: We do not recommend the use of decorative
covers over the hot hotplates as these can hold
condensation and cause corrosion. Accidental
operation with a cover in place can cause intense
heat. Never place saucepan lids on the hotplates, as
this may cause corrosion.

Grill

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.

Control Panel

Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or
aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.

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 furthermore that the lettering is
not blurred or removed.

Ovens

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.

Oven Shelf Supports

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.

GB

Decorative Trims

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.

Doors

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.

To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear

fixing hole and push in the front leg.

Oven Lamp Replacement

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 (25W
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.

! Do not use the oven lamp as/ for ambient
lighting.

The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the
product reminds you of your obligation, that when
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct
disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the
environment

• Whenever possible, avoid pre-heating the oven
and always try to fill it. Open the oven door as little
as possible because heat is lost every time it is
opened. To save a substantial amount of energy,
simply switch off the oven 5 to 10 minutes before the
end of your planned cooking time and use the heat
the oven continues to generate.

• Keep gaskets clean and tidy to prevent any door
energy losses

• If you have a timed tariff electricity contract, the “delay
cooking” option will make it easier to save money by
moving operation to cheaper time periods.

• Make the most of your hot plate's residual heat by
switching off cast iron hot plates 10 minutes before the
end of your cooking time and glass ceramic hot plates
5 minutes before the end of cooking time.

• The base of your pot or pan should cover the hot plate.
If it is smaller, precious energy will be wasted and
pots that boil over leave encrusted remains that can
be difficult to remove.

• Cook your food in closed pots or pans with well-fitting
lids and use as little water as possible. Cooking with
the lid off will greatly increase energy consumption

• Use purely flat pots and pans

• If you are cooking something that takes a long time,
it's worth using a pressure cooker, which is twice as
fast and saves a third of the energy.

Disposal of old electrical appliances
