Be safe
You need clean fresh air - so does your cooker. Burner flames
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 ‘General Safety Instructions‘ (especially
if you have not used a dual fuel cooker before) where we describe
some basic guidelines on how to use a duel fuel 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 first use your cooker it may give off a slight odour. This
should stop after a little use.

Hotplate Burners
The drawing by each knob indicates which burner
that knob controls. There is a spark ignition system
that works when the knob is pressed in. Each burner
also has a special safety device that stops the flow of
gas if the flame goes out.
Push in and turn a knob to the solid flame symbol ( ).
Keep holding the knob pressed in to let the gas
through to the burner for few seconds. The igniter
should spark and light the gas.
If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner
goes out, the safety device has not held in. Turn the
control to the off position and wait one minute, then
try again this time holding in the control knob for
slightly longer.
Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob.
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 (about 43/4").
On this cooker the low position is beyond high, not
between high and off. The outline flame symbol
marks the ‘low position’. Turn the knob towards it
after the contents of a pan have boiled.
Make sure flames 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 Wok burners are designed to provide even heat
over a large area. They are ideal for large pans and
stir frying. For heating smaller pans the smaller
burners may be more efficient.
When hotplate control knob is pressed in,
sparks will be made at every burner, this is
normal.
If after lighting, a hotplate burner’s flame goes
out, turn it off and leave it for one minute before
relighting it.
You can remove the burner cap and trim
rings for cleaning, see the ‘Cleaning your
cooker’ section.
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.
Note:
Use of aluminium pans may cause metallic
marking of the pan supports. This does not affect
the durability of the enamel and may be cleaned
off with a metal cleaner such as 'Brasso'.
5
The Griddle
The griddle fits the centre left 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.
Don’t put it crossways - it will not fit properly and will
be unstable.
Don’t put it on the Wok burners - it is not designed to
fit the Wok burner pan supports.
Preheat the griddle for a maximum of 5 minutes
before adding food. Leaving it longer may cause
damage. The controls can be turned to a lower
position simply by turning the control knobs towards
the lower position marked with the small flame
symbol.
Always leave space around the griddle for the gases
to escape. Never fit two griddles side by side. Large
pans should also be spaced well apart.
Use the following heat settings as a guide for
griddle cooking.
Position the griddle over the hotplate burners resting
on the pan support.
Check that it is securely located.
The griddle can be lightly brushed with cooking oil
before use. Light the hotplate burners. Adjust the
flame heights to suit.
High/medium:
Drop scones, Bacon, Chops, Steak, Burgers.
Medium/low:
Potato cakes, Eggs, Fish cakes.
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 a Wok burner - it is not designed
to fit the Wok burner pan supports.

The Wok cradle
The Rangemaster Wok cradle is designed to fit a
TyphoonTM Professional 14” Wok.
This is available from CookCraft
(www.cookcraft.com) and also from other retailers.
If you use a different Wok make sure that it fits the
cradle. Woks vary very widely in size and shape. It’s
important that the Wok sits down on the pan support
- but if the Wok is too small the cradle will not
support it properly.
Make sure the cradle is stable and that the Wok is
sitting level in the ring.
The cradle will get very hot in use - allow
plenty of time for it to cool before you pick it
up.
Care and Cleaning
Essential information
Never use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic
cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine
based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.
Recommended cleaning materials are hot soapy
water, a moistened soap pad, cream cleaner or a
nylon scourer.
The cradle should be used on the triple ring Wok
burner only.
When you fit the cradle check that the Wok is
properly located on the front and rear fingers and that
it is supported properly on a pan support.

The Ovens
During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid the touching heating
elements inside the oven.
The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will work. See ‘The Clock’ section for
instructions on setting the time of day.
The Left Hand Oven
The left hand oven is a Multi-function oven. As well
as the oven fan and fan element, it is fitted with two
extra heating elements, one visible in the top of the
oven and the second under the oven base. Take care
to avoid touching the top element and element
deflector when placing or removing items from the
oven. For more detail on this oven see the section
‘Multi-function oven’.
The Multi-function oven has two controls, a function
selector and a temperature setting knob.
The Right Hand 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 right hand fan oven control is at the right hand
end of the control panel.
Turn the function selector control to a cooking
function. This is the fan oven setting.
Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature
you need.
The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has
reached the temperature you selected. It will then
cycle on and off during cooking.

Cooking using the timer
The timer can be used to turn just one oven, or
both ovens, 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 first. Then you can
adjust either of them manually in the normal
way.
You can set the oven to turn on at 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 fish should
be avoided if a long delay period is planned,
especially in hot weather.
Both Ovens
Before using for the first time, heat the ovens to
200°C for 30 minutes to dispel manufacturing
odours.
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly
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 of a baking tray is 330mm by 290mm.
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.
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.
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.
When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open
for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs
may get very hot.
• Always leave a ‘fingers 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.
•
If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish,
preheat the 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.

Multi-function oven
The left hand oven of your cooker is Multifunction. It has many varied uses. We suggest
you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you
are familiar with each function. Remember - not
all functions will be suitable for all food types.
Please remember that all cookers vary temperatures in your new ovens may differ to
those in your previous cooker.
Multi-function oven functions
Defrost
This function operates the fan to circulate cold air
only. No heat is applied. This enables small items
such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of
meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.
Defrosting in this way speeds up the process and
protects the food from flies. Pieces of meat, fish
and poultry should be placed on a rack, over a
tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the rack
and tray after defrosting.
Defrost with the oven door closed.
Large items, such as whole chickens and joints
should not be defrosted in this way. We
recommend this be carried out in a refrigerator.
Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm
oven or when an adjoining oven is in use or still
warm.
Fan oven
This function operates the fan and the heating
element around it. An even heat is produced
throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large
amounts quickly.
Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for
baking on several shelves at one time and is a
good ‘all-round’ function. It may be necessary to
reduce the temperature by approximately 10°C
for recipes previously cooked in a conventional
oven.
If you wish to pre-heat the oven, wait until the
indicator light has gone out before inserting the
food.
Fanned grilling
This function operates the fan whilst the top
element is on. It produces a more even, less
fierce heat than a conventional grill. The supplied
pan can used either on an oven shelf or on the
Handygrill rack (see the Handygrill section of the
instructions) The pan is designed to allow air
circulation. Thick pieces of meat or fish are ideal
for grilling in this way, as the circulated air
reduces the fierceness of the heat from the grill.
The oven door should be kept closed whilst
grilling is in progress, so saving energy. You will
also find that the food needs to be watched and
turned less than for normal grilling. Pre-heat this
function before cooking.
Fan assisted oven
This function operates the fan, circulating air
heated by the elements at the top and the base of
the oven. The combination of fan and
conventional cooking (top and base heat) makes
this function ideal for cooking large items that
need thorough cooking, such as a large meat
roast. It is also possible to bake on two shelves at
one time, although they will need to be swapped
over during the cooking time, as the heat at the
top of the oven is greater than at the base, when
using this function.
This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an
eye on the food cooking until you have become
accustomed to this function.
Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are
completely defrosted before cooking.
