Introduction
Glass door panels
To meet the relevant Standards of
Domestic cooking appliances, all the
glass panels on this appliance are
toughened to meet the fragmentation
requirements of BS3193. This ensures
that, in the unlikely event that a panel
breaks, it does so into small fragments
to minimise the risk of injury.
Please take care when handling, using
or cleaning all glass panels as any
damage to the surfaces or edges may
result in the glass breaking without
warning or apparent cause at a later
date. Should any glass panel be
damaged, we strongly recommend
that it is replaced immediately.
The cooling fan
When the appliance is switched on,
holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood). Prolonged intensive use of the
appliance may call for additional
ventilation, for example, opening of a
window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
If the ignition fails:
n
Check there is a spark when the
ignition button is depressed. If there
is no spark, check that the electricity
supply is switched on at the socket.
Check that the gas supply is
n
switched on.
Try another appliance in the socket,
n
if that works, replace the 3 amp
fuse in the cooker plug.
you may hear the cooling fan come
on. This keeps the fascia and control
knobs cool during grilling / cooking
and will continue to operate for up to
15 minutes after the appliance has
been switched off.
During oven use the fan may cycle on
and off. Should any fault occur with the
cooling fan, the appliance will require
servicing. Contact Customer Support.
Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance
results in the production of heat and
moisture in the room in which it is
installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated: keep natural ventilation
Moving the cooker
Do not attempt to move the cooker by
pulling on the doors or handles. Open
the door and grasp the frame of the
cooker, taking care that the door does
not shut on your fingers.
Take care to avoid damage to soft or
uneven floor coverings when moving
the appliance. Some cushioned vinyl
floor coverings may not be designed
to withstand sliding appliances without
marking or damage.

FULL ON
) to the
small flame symbol.
You may hear a slight popping noise
when the hob burners are operating
and this is quite normal, but if anything
about the cooker appears unusual,
such as change in flame appearance,
or the operation of controls - seek
expert advice.
The control knob can be set at any

cooking.

Using the Hob
Pans
For optimum safety and performance, we
recommend the use of flat bottomed pans
with a base diameter of minimum 100mm
(4”) and maximum 250mm (10”).
Do not use double pans, rim based
pans, old misshapen pans or any pan
which is unstable when placed on a
flat surface.
Position pans over the centre of the
burners, resting on the pan supports.
If positioned off centre, smaller pans
may be unstable.
To save gas
Use the size of pan most suited to
n
the size of the burner - ie; larger
pans on the larger burners, smaller
pans on the smaller burners.
Adjust the flames so that they do
n
not lick up the sides of the pan.
n
Put lids on saucepans and only heat
the amount of liquid you need.
n
When liquids boil, reduce the control
setting to maintain a simmer.
n
Consider the use of a pressure
cooker for the cooking of a
complete meal.
n
Potatoes and vegetables will cook
quicker if chopped into smaller pieces.
When cooking with fat or oil, never
leave unattended.
Turn pan handles to a safe position,
so they are out of reach of children,
not overhanging the appliance, and
cannot be caught accidentally.
Commercial simmering aids should
not be used as they create excessive
temperatures that can damage the
surface and may cause a hazard.
Pan supports
Always make sure the pan supports
are replaced correctly, and located in
the hob spillage well.

be hot when the grill is used young children should be kept
away.

lit, switch off the grill and leave the
compartment door open. Wait at
least one minute before a further
attempt to ignite the burner.
Do not hold the control knob in for
more than 15 seconds.
In the event of the grill burner flames
being accidentally extinguished, turn
off the burner control and do not
attempt to re-ignite the burner for at
least one minute.
When slower cooking is required the
grill can be turned down anti-clockwise
to a slightly reduced setting, past the
full grill symbol (full on), to the half grill
symbol. This can be used in conjunction with the different grilling positions
achieved by adjusting the grid as
detailed later in this book.
