Be safe

Warning

Accessible parts will become hot in use. To avoid burns and scalds children should be kept away.

You need clean fresh air - so does your cooker. Burner ﬂ ames produce exhaust gases, heat and moisture. Make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a powered cooker hood that vents outside. If you have several burners on or use the cooker for a long time, open a window or turn on an extractor fan. For more detail see the Installation Instructions.

We recommend you read the ‘General Safety Instructions’ section if you have not used a gas cooker before. We describe some basic guidelines on how to use a gas cooker safely.

Gas and Electricity on

Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the cooker is wired in and switched on. The cooker needs electricity.

Peculiar smells

When you ﬁ rst use your cooker it may give off a slight odour. This should stop after a little use.

Before using for the ﬁ rst time, make sure that all packing materials have been removed and then to dispel manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 240°C and run for an hour.

Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on a cooker hood for example. We recommend that people with respiratory or allergy problems should vacate the area for this brief period.

Before using the grill for the ﬁ rst time you should also turn on the grill and run for 30 minutes with the grill pan in position, pushed fully back, and the grill door open.

Installation

In the UK the cooker must be installed by a CORGI registered engineer. Failure to install the appliance correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims and lead to prosecution

This appliance shall be installed in accordance with the regulations in force and only in a well ventilated space. Read the instructions before installing or using this appliance.

This appliance should not be installed in a boat or caravan.

Hotplate burners

Some models have a glass lid over the hotplate.

If it is not open, lift it up at the front.

There is a safety device which cuts off the gas to the hotplate burners if the lid is accidentally closed with a burner on. Do not use this to turn the burners

off. The gas supply is restored when the lid is raised. The toughened glass lid is not intended as a

work surface and should not be used for this purpose.

Before closing the lid remove all pans from the hotplate and ensure that all hotplate control knobs are in the off position.

Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh

mats, are NOT recommended. They will reduce burner performance and could damage the pan supports.

Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans that

may tilt easily and pans with a very small base diameter e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers. The minimum pan diameter recommended is 120mm.

Pans and kettles with down turned base rims should not be used.

The drawing by each

knob indicates which

burner that knob controls. Press the igniter button,

and push in and turn a knob to the large ﬂ ame symbol (

). Alternatively light with a

match. If a burner ﬂ ame goes out, turn the control knob off

and leave it for one minute before relighting it.

Adjust the ﬂ ame height to

suit by turning the knob.

On this cooker the low position is beyond high, not between high and off. The small ﬂ ame marks the ‘low position’.

Turn the knob towards it after the contents of a pan have boiled.

Note.

If you leave the gas taps in the ‘On’ position when the lid has been closed, unburnt gas will escape when the lid is raised.

When the spark button (IGN) is pressed, sparks will be made at every burner, this is normal.

You can remove the burner parts for cleaning, see the ‘Cleaning your cooker’ section of these instructions.

You should wipe the enamel top surface of the cooker around the hotplate burners as soon as possible after spills occur. Try to wipe them off while the enamel is still warm.

Make sure ﬂ ames are under the pans. Using a

lid will help the contents boil more quickly.

Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base rims should not be used.

The Griddle

The griddle ﬁ ts a single pan support, front to back. It is designed for cooking food on directly. Don’t use pans of any kind on it. The griddle surface is nonstick and metal cooking utensils (e.g. spatulas) will damage the surface. Use heat resistant plastic or wooden utensils.

Always leave space around the griddle for the gases to escape. Never ﬁ t two griddles side by side. Large pans should also be spaced well apart. The maximum pan base diameter is 250mm.

Use the following heat settings as a guide for griddle cooking.

High/medium: Drop scones, Bacon, Chops, Steak, Burgers.

Medium/low: Potato cakes, Eggs, Fish cakes.

Don’t put it crossways - it will not ﬁ t properly and will be unstable.

Don’t put it on the High burner - it is not designed to ﬁ t the High burner pan support.

Position the griddle over the hotplate burners resting on the pan support. The griddle can be lightly brushed with cooking oil before use. Light the hotplate burners. Adjust the ﬂ ame heights to suit.

Experience will soon familiarise you with the correct setting to use for cooking.

After cooking allow the griddle to cool before cleaning.

Don’t put it on the High burner - it is not designed to ﬁ t the Hogh burner pan support.

War mer

Use the warmer for keeping food warm while the ﬁ nal touches are put to a meal. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the on position. The ‘HOT’ indicator lights up. For best results, pre-heat a covered serving dish for 10 minutes before adding food to it.

Preheat the griddle for a maximum of 5 minutes before adding food. Leaving it longer may cause damage. You can reduce the heat by turning the control knobs towards the lower position (marked with the small ﬂ ame symbol).

CAUTION:- If a crack in the Warmer surface

becomes visible, due to accidental damage etc., isolate the appliance from the electricity supply immediately by turning it off at the wall and arrange for its repair.

DO NOT RECONNECT THE COOKER TO THE

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY UNTIL AFTER REPAIR!

The Grill

CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.

Before using the grill for the ﬁ rst time turn on the grill and run for 30 minutes with the grill pan in position, pushed fully back, and the grill door open. Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on a cooker hood for example.

Remove the pan from the bottom of the grill compartment.

For best results preheat for 2 minutes with the grill pan in position. After placing your food on the grill pan grid, slide the grill pan onto the side supports. Adjust the heat to suit by turning the knob.

Make sure it is pushed right in and touches the back stop.

Never close the grill door when the grill is on.

The grill pan grid can be turned over to give two grilling positions.

After placing your food on the grill tray pan, slide the grill pan onto the side supports just below the elements. Make sure it is pushed right in and touches the back stop.

The grill has two elements that allow either the whole area of the pan to be heated or just the right hand half. To heat the whole grill, turn the knob clockwise to position 3.

To heat the right hand half turn it anticlockwise.

Don’t leave the grill on for more than a few moments, without the grill pan underneath it.

For best results, especially with toast, preheat the grill with the grill pan in the cooking position for two minutes before use.

The grill trivet can be removed and the food placed on it while you are waiting for the grill to preheat.

The grill pan grid can be turned over to give two grilling positions.

You can brown the top of dishes cooked in the oven, under the grill by placing the dish onto the base of the grill pan, which can easily slide along the ﬂ oor of the grill cavity.

The Ovens

During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the ovens.

Before using for the ﬁ rst time, to dispel manufacturing odours turn the ovens to 230°C and run for an hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on a cooker hood for example. We recommend that people with respiratory or allergy problems should vacate the area for this brief period.

Turn the oven knob to the temperature you need.

The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will work. See ‘The Clock’ section of these instructions for how to set the clock.

Before using for the ﬁ rst time, heat the ovens to 200°C for 30 minutes to dispel manufacturing odours. Open a window to clear the smell.

The Left hand Oven

The left hand conventional oven is ﬁ tted with two heating elements, one visible in the top of the oven and the second under the oven base. Be careful to avoid touching the top element and element deﬂ ector when placing or removing items from the oven.

The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on and off during cooking.

When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the grille at the rear of the hotplate. This is perfectly normal.

The Right hand Fan Oven

The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air continuously, which means faster more even cooking.

The recommended cooking temperatures for a fanned oven are generally lower than a non-fanned oven.

The fan only setting. The fan circulates air inside the oven but the heating element is not turned on. This setting is useful for defrosting frozen foods.

Whole chickens and large joints of meat should be defrosted in the refrigerator. Do not defrost in a warm oven or whilst the adjoining oven is hot.

The Clock

You can use the timer to turn the ovens on and off. The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will work.

To set the time of day

Press and hold as above. At the same time, press (-) or (+) until the correct time shows. Don’t forget it’s a 24 hour clock. If you make a mistake or press the wrong button, turn off the power supply for a minute or two and start again.

To start and stop the oven automatically

Before you set the clock, you must have two numbers clearly in mind.

The ‘cook period’, which is the period of time you want the oven to cook.

The ‘stop time’, which is the time of day you want the oven to stop cooking.

You cannot set a start time directly - this is set automatically by setting the cooking period and stop time.

Press and hold the Cook Time ( button. At the same time press (-) or (+) until your required ‘cook period’ shows.

Clock Special Features

Key Lock

When the key lock is activated, the clock can be operated as usual but the oven is locked and will not come on. This means that your child could select a cook program but the program will not be activated and oven will not be switched on.

To activate the key lock

Make sure that the clock is in manual mode and cancel any active programs.

Hold the Minute Minder (

) and Cooktime ( ) buttons for about 8 seconds.

‘On’ will appear on the display.

Press the ‘+’ button once.

‘Of’ will appear on the display.

Cooking using the timer

The timer can be used to turn just one oven or both on and off automatically. The start and stop time must be the same for both ovens but different cooking temperatures can be set.

If you want to turn one of the ovens on at the same time as the timer is set for automatic cooking, you must wait until the timer has turned on the oven/ ovens ﬁ rst. Then you can adjust either of them manually in the normal way.

You can set the oven to turn on any time over the following 24 hour period

If you want to cook more than one dish, choose dishes that require approximately the same time. However, dishes can be ‘slowed down’ slightly by using small containers and covering them with aluminium foil, or ‘speeded up’ slightly by cooking smaller quantities or placing in larger containers.

Very perishable foods such as pork or ﬁ sh should be avoided if a long delay period is planned, especially in hot weather.

The clock oven control functions are now locked.

After a few seconds the display will revert to show the time of day and the key symbol (

To turn off the key lock

Hold the Minute Minder (

and Cooktime ( ) buttons for about 8 seconds.

‘Of’ will appear on the display.

Press the ‘+’ button once. ‘On’ will appear on the display.

)

Don’t place warm food in the oven. Don’t use an oven already warm. Don’t use if an adjoining oven is warm.

Avoid using wine or beer if there is a delay period, as fermentation may take place.

To avoid curdling, cream should be added to dishes just before serving.

Fresh vegetables, which may discolour during a delay period, should be coated in melted fat or immersed in a water and lemon juice solution.

Many frozen foods are ideal for delayed cooking and can be placed in the oven while still frozen.

Fruit pies, custard tarts or similar wet mixtures on top of uncooked pastry are only satisfactory if there is a short delay period. Dishes containing leftover cooked meat or poultry should not be cooked automatically if there is a delay period.

Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted before placing in the oven. Check that meat and poultry are fully cooked before serving.

After a few seconds the display will revert to show the time of day.

The oven and the clock oven control functions can now be used normally.

Oven cooking

The wire shelves should always be pushed ﬁ rmly to the back of the oven.

Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed level centrally on the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all trays and containers away from the sides of the oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.

For even browning, the maximum recommended size for a baking tray is 340mm by 340mm.

Cooking high moisture content foods can create a ‘steam burst’, when the oven door is opened. When opening the oven stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.

When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get very hot.

Oven shelves

the shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards

As well as the ﬂ at shelves some models are supplied with a drop shelf. The drop shelf increases the possibilities for oven shelf spacing.

• Always leave a ‘ﬁ ngers width’ between dishes on the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate freely around them.

• The Cook & Clean oven liners (see Cleaning your cooker) work better when fat splashes are avoided. Cover meat when cooking.

• To reduce fat splashing when you add

vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.

• Sufﬁ cient heat rises out of the oven while cooking to warm plates in the grill compartment.

• If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish, preheat a baking tray for 15 minutes before placing the dish in the centre of the tray.

• Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking, place them on a baking tray.

The oven shelves can be easily removed and reﬁ tted.

Pull the shelf forward until the back of the shelf is stopped by the shelf stop bumps in the oven sides.

Lift up the front of the shelf so the back of the shelf will pass under the shelf stop and then pull the shelf forward.

To reﬁ t the shelf, line up the shelf with a groove in the oven side and push the shelf back until the ends hit the shelf stop. Lift up the front so the shelf ends clear the shelf stops, and then lower the front so that the shelf is level and push it fully back.

The Handyrack

The maximum weight that can be held by the Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb). It should only be used with the supplied meat tin, which is designed to ﬁ t the Handyrack. Any other vessel could be unstable.

Oven light

Press the appropriate button to turn on one of the oven lights.

If one of the oven lights fail, turn off the power supply before you change the bulb.

See the ‘Troubleshooting’ section for details on how to change an oven light bulb.

The Handyrack ﬁ ts to the left hand oven door only. Food cooking on it is easy to attend to, because it’s accessible when the door is open. It can be ﬁ tted at two different heights. One of the oven shelves must be removed and the other positioned to suit.

When the Handyrack is used in its highest position, other dishes can be cooked on the bottom shelf position of the oven or standing on the base of the oven

When the Handyrack is used in its lowest position, other dishes can be cooked on the second shelf position of the oven or standing on the base of the oven.

To ﬁ t the Handyrack, locate one side of it on the door bracket.

The Browning Element

The Browning Element is positioned in the top of the left hand oven. It can be used at the end of a normal cooking period to give extra browning to au gratin dishes or give a crisper ﬁ nish to meat.

After the normal cooking is ﬁ nished turn the left hand oven thermostat knob clockwise to the browning position, indicated by ( facia panel. Only the browning element will operate when the thermostat is turned to this position. The top and base cooking elements will automatically switch off.

) on the

Storage

Then spring the other side out to clip it onto the other bracket.

The bottom drawer is for storing oven trays and other cooking utensils. It can get very warm, don’t store anything in it that may melt or catch ﬁ re. The drawer can be removed completely by pulling it right out and up.
