removed.

• The adjustment conditions are shown on a label applied
to the packaging and the appliance.

• Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the hob,
before using the cooker.

• Before assembling the cooker remove all the parts that
are not firmly attached to it, in particular the pan sup­ports and burners. To lighten the weight of the cooker,
the accessories inside the ovens may also be removed,
preventing accidental damage during the overturning
process.

• If the cooker is set on a pedestal, appropriate measures
must be taken to prevent it from sliding off the pedestal.

• Additions or modifications to the appliance are not
permitted.

• Repairs to the cooker must only be carried out by trai­ned registered service engineers.

near the cooker.

• Do not allow children to sit or climb on the drop down
doors.

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

• Whenever the cooker is in use and in the necessary
cooling down period, take care to position the saucepans
in a way to prevent burns or overturning. Avoid leaving
the oven door open during use and immediately after
cooking, the heating elements will still be hot.

• Only allow older children to use the cooker with adult
supervision.

Use

• This cooker is intended for domestic cooking only. It is
not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

• Remove all stickers and film from the glass doors and
the stainless steel cabinet.

• Cookers become very hot with use, and retain their
heat for long periods after use. Care should be taken to
avoid touching the hob area and the inside of the oven
until fully cooled.

• There is the risk of burns from the appliance if used
carelessly.

• Cables from other electrical appliances must not tou­ch the hot surface of the appliance or hot cookware.

• Overheated fat and oil can ignite quickly. When coo­king with fat or oil (e.g. frying chips) do not leave the
appliance unattended.

• Do not leave cookware containing foodstuffs, e.g. fat
or oil in or on the oven or on the hob in case they are
inadvertently switched ON.

• Ensure that you switch the gas hobs and ovens OFF
after use.

• Do not ignite a gas hob without a saucepan over the
burner.

• When in use the gas hob will produce heat and moi­sture in the room in which it has been installed. Ensure
there is a continuous air supply, keeping air vents in
good condition or installing a cooker hood with a ven­ted outlet.

• When using the hob for a long period of time, opening
a window or increasing the extractor speed should im­prove the ventilation.

• All the cookerÊs vents must be free of obstructed to
ensure ventilation of the oven cavity.

• Do not use the cooker if it is in contact with water.

• Do not operate the cooker with wet hands.

• Always stand back from the cooker when opening the
oven doors during cooking or at the end of it, to allow
any build up of steam or heat to release.

• Unstable or misshapen pans should not be used on the
hob as they can cause an accident by tipping or spillage.

• Always support the grill pan when it is in the
withdrawn or partially withdrawn position.

• The cooker must not be used as a work surface or as a
storage surface.

• Never line any part of the oven with aluminium foil.

• Do not allow heatproof cooking materials, e.g. roa­sting bags, to come into contact with the oven elemen­ts.

2

• Do not place or store sealed cans, aerosols, flam­mable liquids, highly inflammable materials or fusible
objects (e.g. plastics film, plastic, aluminium) inside,
on, above or near the cooker.

• Do not hang towels, dishcloths or clothes from the
oven or its handles.

• Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food
in the oven.

Maintenance and cleaning

• For hygiene and safety reasons this cooker should
be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other
foodstuffs could result in a fire especially in the grill
pan.

• Always allow the cooker to cool down and ensure it
is switched of at the wall switch prior to carrying out
any cleaning / maintenance work.

Electrical connection

The electrical connection should be made using a dou­ble pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at least
3mm contact separation in all poles. The cable must
have conductors of sufficiently high cross-sectional area
to prevent overheating and deterioration.
We recommend you use a new length of 2,5 mm2 twin
core and earthed cable to ensure your safety.
Make the connection as shown in figure by proceeding
as follows:
Preform wires to the appropriate shape to suit fitting
into the mains terminal block.

Strip inner insulation on wires using wire strippers.
Ensure all screws are securely tightened.
Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of the
outer insulation is inside the terminal block and that
the wires are not taut but not so slack as to cause any
fouling.
Connect the remaining end of the mains cable to the
appliance to the appliance point / junction box.
Place fuse / miniature circuit breaker in circuit and
switch on at mains.
When refitting the mains terminal cover, ensure that
the lower tabs are located inside the bottom edge of
the aperture, before fixing the two screws into the top
edge of the mains terminal cover. Ensure that the cover
is securely fastened.

Proceed as follows:

• Open the terminal board box, unscrew the screw A
that locks the cable;

• Loosen the screw contacts and replace the cable
with one of the same length that corresponds to the
specifications in the table in section „Electric power
cable section‰;

• The „yellow-green‰ earth wire must be connected
to the terminal and must be approximately 20 mm
longer than the line cables;

• The neutral „blue‰ wire must be connected to the
terminal marked with the letter N;

• The line wire „brown‰ must be connected to the
terminal marked with the letter L.

Gas connection

The room containing the appliance should have an air
supply in accordance with B.S. 5440 part 2.

1. All rooms require an opening window or equivalent,
and some rooms will require a permanent vent as well.

2. For room volumes up to 5m³ an air vent of 100cm² is
required.

3. If the room has a door that opens directly to the
outside, and the room exceeds 1m³ no air vent is re­quired.

4. For room volumes between 5m³ and 10m³ an air
vent of 50cm² is required.

5. If there are other fuel burning appliances in the
same room B.S. 5440 part 2 should be consulted to
determine the air vent requirements.

6. The appliance must not be installed in a bed sitting
room of less than 20m or in a bathroom or shower

room.

We recommend checking that the appliance is

properly set up for the type of gas distributed. The
threaded ½‰ gas connection pipe is located at the

rear on the right hand side of the appliance.

The cooker is designed to match the depth of standard
600mm worktops. An adaptor back plate should, the­refore, be fitted within the shaded area shown to allow
the cooker to be pushed in fully and chased to the
wall.Connection to the cooker should be made with
an approved appliance flexible connection to BS 669.
A length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length
of hose chosen should be such that when the cooker is
in situ, the hose does not touch the floor.The tempe­rature rise of areas at the rear of the cooker that are
likely to come in contact with the flexible hose do not
exceed 70°C.
