Gas Connection Safety

Peculiar Smells

This cooker is a Class 2 Subclass 1 appliance.
This appliance can be converted for use on another gas.
Before installation, make sure that the cooker is suitable
for your gas type and supply voltage. See the data badge.
DO NOT use reconditioned or unauthorised gas controls.
Disconnect from the electricity and gas supply before servicing.
When servicing or replacing gas-carrying components disconnect from the gas supply before starting operation. Check the appliance is gas sound after completion.
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the cooker is wired in and switched on.
In your own interest and that of safety, it is law that all gas appliances be installed by a qualified person(s).
An appliance for use on LPG must not be installed in a room or internal space below ground level, e.g. in a basement.

If You Smell Gas

When you rst use your cooker it may give o an odour. This should stop after use.
Before using for the rst time, make sure that all packing materials have been removed and then, to dispel manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 200 °C and run for at least an hour.
Before using the grill for the 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.
Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air (see ‘Ventilation’ below). People with respiratory or allergy problems should vacate the area for this brief period.

Ventilation

The use of a cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Therefore, make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a powered cookerhood that vents outside. If you have several hotplates/ burners on, or use the cooker for a long time, open a window or turn on an extractor fan

Maintenance

It is recommended that this appliance is serviced annually.
• DO NOT turn electric switches on or off
• DO NOT smoke
• DO NOT use naked flames
Turn off the gas at the meter or cylinder
Open doors and windows to get rid of the gas
Keep people away from the area affected
Call your gas supplier
• DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that
overlap the edges.
Unless specified otherwise in this guide, always allow the cooker to cool and then switch it off at the mains before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work.
• DO NOT use the control knobs to manoeuvre the cooker.
• NEVER operate the cooker with wet hands.
• DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a
glove – it might catch fire if brought into contact with a hot surface.
• DO NOT use hotplate protectors, foil or hotplate covers of any description. These may affect the safe use of your hotplate burners and are potentially hazardous to health.
• NEVER heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make the containers burst and cause injury.
• DO NOT use unstable saucepans. Always make sure that you position the handles away from the edge of the hotplate.
• NEVER leave the hotplate unattended at high heat settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking, and greasy spills may catch on fire. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent fat overheating beyond the smoking point.

Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or oil can be dangerous and may result in fire.
• NEVER leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should be only one third full of fat.
Fig. 1.1
• NEVER try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat
fryer. Wait until the fat is cool. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them together before heating, or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills or overheating of foods when frying at high or medium high temperatures.
• DO NOT use the top of the flue (the slot along the back of the cooker) for warming plates, dishes, drying tea towels or softening butter.
• DO NOT use water on grease fires and never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off and then smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If available, use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam­type fire extinguisher.
• DO NOT modify this appliance. This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external timer or separated remote-control system.
ArtNo.324-0001 Steam burst
If flammable materials are stored in the drawer, oven(s) or grill(s) it may explode and result in fire or property damage.
Oven Care
When the oven is not in use and before attempting to clean the cooker always be certain that the control knobs are in the OFF position.
Use oven gloves to protect your hand from potential burns.
Cooking high moisture content foods can create a ‘steam burst’ when the oven door is opened (Fig. 1.1). When opening the oven, stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
The inside door face is constructed with toughened safety glass. Take care NOT to scratch the surface when cleaning the glass panel.
Accidental damage may cause the door glass panel to fracture.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
• DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
3
Make sure the shelves are pushed firmly to the back of the oven. DO NOT close the door against the oven shelves.

Warming Zone Care

• NEVER attempt to cook directly on the heating zone.
• DO NOT use aluminium foil to cover shelves, linings or
the oven roof.
When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the oven door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the control knobs may become very hot.
• DO NOT use the timed oven if the adjoining oven is already warm.
• DO NOT place warm food in the oven to be timed.
• DO NOT use a timed oven that is already warm.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp
gloves might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface.

Hob Care

• NEVER allow anyone to climb or stand on the hob.
• DO NOT use the hob surface as a cutting board.
• DO NOT leave utensils, foodstus or combustible items
on the hob when it is not in use (e.g. tea towels, frying pans containing oil).
• DO NOT place plastic or aluminium foil, or plastic containers on the hob.
• DO NOT use the heating zone surface as a cutting board.
• DO NOT leave utensils, foodstuff or combustible items on the heating zone when it is not in use (e.g. tea towels, frying pans containing oil).
• DO NOT place plastic or aluminium foil, or plastic containers, on the heating zone.
• DO NOT leave the heating zone switched on unless being used for warming.
• DO NOT stand or rest heavy objects on the heating zone.
Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a sharp blow or sharp falling object (e.g. a salt cellar) might cause the surface to crack or break (Fig. 1.2)
Should a crack appear in the surface, disconnect the
cooker immediately from the supply and arrange for its repair.
Always LIFT pans o the heating zone. Sliding pans may cause marks and scratches (Fig. 1.3). Always turn the control to the ‘OFF’ position before removing a pan.
• DO NOT place anything between the base of the pan and the heating zone surface (e.g. asbestos mats, aluminium foil, wok cradle).
Always turn the control to the OFF position before removing a pan.
Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage both the hob and pan.

Grill/Glide-out Grill™ Care

When using the grill, make sure that the grill pan is in position and pushed fully in, otherwise the control knobs may become very hot.
• DO NOT leave the grill on for more than a few moments without the grill pan underneath it, otherwise the knobs may become hot.
• NEVER close the grill door when the grill is on.
Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use.
Young children should be kept away.
Take care NOT to place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids on the hob surface since they can get hot.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external timer or separated remote-control system.
Avoid warming an empty pan. Doing so may damage both the heating zone and pan.
Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for use on the heating zone; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

Cooling Fan

This appliance may have a cooling fan. When the grill or oven is in operation the fan will run to cool the fascia and control knobs.

Cooker Care

As steam can condense to water droplets on the cool outer trim of the oven, it may be necessary during cooking to wipe away any moisture with a soft cloth. This will also help to prevent soiling and discolouration of the oven exterior by cooking vapours.
