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.

• 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, foodstus 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

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.

2. Hob Overview
DocNo.023-0002 - Overview - RI77 hob
Fig. 2.1
Fig. 2.2
The ceramic hob comprises of four cooking zones containing
radiant elements with dierent ratings and diameters (Fig.
2.1), each with a pan detector and residual heat indicator.
Each zone is controlled via the touch sensitive controls with
diode light and an audible signal when operated (Fig. 2.2).

2. On/O
3. Timer
4. Decrease and increase
5. Dual cooking zone
6. Zones
The Hob
Use only pans that are suitable for ceramic hobs. We
recommend stainless steel and enamelled steel pans as pots
and pans with copper or aluminium bases leave traces on the
hob that are dicult to remove. Glass-ceramic cookware is
not suitable because of its poor conductivity. The kind of pan
you use and the quantity of food aects the setting required.
Higher settings are required for larger quantities of food.
Fig. 2.3
Pots and pans should have thick, smooth, at bottoms
(Fig. 2.3). This ensures the maximum heat transfer from the
hob to the pan, making cooking quick and energy ecient.
Never use a round-bottomed wok, even with a stand.
The very best pans have bases that are very slightly curved
up when cold (Fig. 2.4). If you hold a ruler across the bottom
you will see a small gap in the middle. When they heat up the
metal expands and lies at on the cooking surface.
Make sure that the base of the pan is clean and dry to prevent
any residue burning onto the hob panel. This also helps
prevent scratches and deposits.
Always use pans that are the same size as (or slightly larger
than) the areas marked on the hob. Using smaller pans wastes
heat and any spillages will be burnt on. Using a lid will help
the contents boil more quickly.
Always take care before touching the surface, even
when the hob is turned o. It may be hotter than you
think!

ArtNo.312-0010 Cleaning; scraping the ceramic hob
3. Cleaning Your Hob
• DocNo.042-0001 - Cleaning - BI hob ceramic
Fig. 3.1
Essential information
Allow the hob to cool and isolate the electricity supply before
carrying out any thorough cleaning.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic
cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based
bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.
Do not mix dierent cleaning products – they may
react together with hazardous results.
All parts of the hob can be cleaned with hot soapy water –
but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.
Scrape major spills or melted material from the cooking zone
and push into a cold area. Then turn the unit ‘OFF’ and allow
it to cool before cleaning further. After the cooking surface
cools down and the residual heat indicator lights go o,
follow the ‘Daily care’ procedure outlined above.
Cleaning Burned-on Spills
Make sure that the residual heat indicators are o and that
the hob is cool. Remove the excess burned-on substance with
a single-edged razor scraper. Hold the scraper at an angle of
about 30° to the surface and then scrape o the burned-on
matter (Fig. 3.1).
Once you have removed as much as possible with the scraper,
follow the ‘Daily care’ procedure outlined above.
To Remove Metal Rub-off
Sliding pans on the hob – especially aluminium or copper
pans – can leave marks on the surface. These marks often
appear like scratches but can easily be removed using the
procedure described previously for ‘Cleaning Spills’. If the
rub-o marks are especially stubborn, use a cleaning cream
together with the razor scraper, as described in ‘Cleaning
Burned-on Spills’.
Remember to switch on the electricity supply before reusing the hob.
Regular cleaning is recommended. For easier cleaning, wipe
away any spillages immediately.
Daily Care
First of all, make sure that all residual heat indicators are
o and that the cooking surface is cool. Apply a small dab
of ceramic cleaning cream in the centre of each area to be
cleaned. Dampen a clean paper towel and work the cream
onto the cooking surface. As a nal step, wipe the cooking
surface with a clean, dry paper towel.
Cleaning Spills
For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, turn o the
unit and wipe the area surrounding the hot zone with a clean
paper towel. If a spill (other than a sugary substance) is on the
hot zone, do not clean until the unit has completely cooled
down and then follow the instructions below, ‘Cleaning
Burned-on Spills’.
If you accidentally melt anything on the surface, or if you spill
foods with a high sugar content (preserves, tomato sauce,
fruit juice, etc.), remove the spill IMMEDIATELY with a razor
scraper, while the unit is still hot.
IMPORTANT: Use an oven glove to protect your hand from
potential burns.

Positioning the Hob
It is recommended that the hob be installed in a worktop
with a minimum thickness of 38 mm and depth of 600 mm.
The cut-out dimensions and the recommended minimum
clearances from the hob to nearby surfaces are shown in
(Fig. 5.1) and (Fig. 5.2).
NOTE: If installing the hob over a standard cabinet, you may
have to remove part of the cabinet panels to allow the unit to
t correctly.
NOTE: Gap between the cut-out and back of the wall MUST
be 60 mm Fig. 5.1.
If installing a built-in oven directly under the hob, a minimum
thickness of 38 mm worktop is required and must have an
air gap of 10 mm between the oven and the bottom of the
hob (Fig. 5.2).
If no built-in oven is installed underneath, and If the worktop
surface used has less than a 38 mm is used a 10 mm air gap
is still required (Fig. 5.2).
There must be a minimum air gap of 10 mm under
the hob. Failure to maintain a suitable clearance may
impair the performance of the hob.
Fig. 5.1
Fig. 5.2
NOTE: If the built-in hob is being installed directly above
a built-in oven, an additional spacer (not supplied) may be
required to maintain a clearance of 10 mm between the
underside of the built-in hob and the top of the built-in oven
Fig. 5.3.
Any hob hood should be installed in accordance with the
hood manufacturer’s instructions.
Any splashback must be tted in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions. Allowance should be made for
the additional height of the ue trim, which is tted to the
cooker hob.
Surfaces of furniture and walls at the sides and rear of the hob
should be heat, splash and steam resistant. Certain types of
vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to
heat damage and discolouration.
We cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by
normal use of the hob to any material that de-laminates
or discolours at temperatures less than 65°C above room
temperature.
For safety reasons curtains must not be tted immediately
behind the hob.
Fig. 5.3
IMPORTANT
* To achieve a 10 mm gap clearance, a spacer may be
required when installing directly above a built-in oven.

Check the appliance is electrically safe and gas sound when you have nished.
Fixing the seal to the back of the hob
The hob must be sealed to the work surface to prevent liquid
from entering into the cabinet. A tape seal is supplied with
the hob. Refer to Fig. 5.4.
1. Turn the hob over and place on a secure, level surface.
2. Spread the seal around the left, front, right and rear
outer edges of the cooktop. Take special care in the
corners making sure there are no gaps. The ends of the
strips must t together without overlapping.
3. If the surface that the hob is to be tted to is tiled or
is not reasonably smooth, additional sealing with a
waterproof silicone sealant may be required.
4. Turn the hob back the right way up and position it in
the worktop cut-out.
Fastening the Installation Brackets
Each cooktop is provided with an installation kit including
brackets and screws for fastening the top to xture panels
from 20 to 40 mm thick. Refer to Fig. 5.5.
