Use only pans that are suitable for ceramic hobs.
We recommend stainless steel and enamelled steel pans because pots and pans with copper or aluminium bases leave traces on the hob that are difficult to remove.
Glass-ceramic cookware is not suitable because of its poor conductivity.
1
Pots and pans should have thick, smooth, flat bottoms. This
ensures that there is the maximum heat transfer from the hob to the pan, making cooking quick and energy efficient.
Never use a round bottomed Wok even with a stand.
3
The very best pans have bases that are very slightly curved in
when cold. 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 flat 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 (such as lime specks).
HOB

When you cook on a ceramic hob its
very
important to use the right sort of pans...
2 Minute Tour
Be safe
Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the hob. Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a sharp blow or sharp falling object might cause the surface to crack. As soon as any crack in the surface becomes visible disconnect the appliance immediately from the supply and arrange for its repair. Care should be taken that no water seeps into the appliance.
During use, and afterwards, the appliance will be warm, so be careful with little children. If the younger members of your family are allowed into the kitchen we strongly advise that they are kept under supervision at all times.
We recommend you read pages 20 - 21 if you have not used an electric cooker before. We describe some basic guidelines on how to use a cooker safely.
Electricity on
Make sure that the electricity supply is turned on.
Peculiar smells
When you first use your cooker It may give off a slight odour. This should stop after a little use.

The ratings of the cooking areas are shown on the diagram above.
Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a heavy or
sharp falling object (a salt cellar for example) might cause the surface to crack. If you find a crack in the surface immediately disconnect the appliance from the supply and arrange for its repair.
Care should be taken that no water seeps into the appliance.

Never cook directly on the
surface.
There are indicator lights for each of the cooking areas. These come on when a hob
control is turned on and stay lit while the surface cools. Always take care before touching the surface even when it is turned off - it may be hotter than you think.
1210
The areas marked with two concentric circles have an inner
and an outer element. Turn the control knob clockwise to heat the whole area for larger pans - turn it the other way to just heat the inner part for smaller pans.
9
On the right of the hob is a dual purpose area. The inner ring
marks out a 1.2kW hob area, the outer line marks the extent of the Warmer. Turn the control to the first (Warmer) position to heat the whole area to a low temperature. Use the Warmer for keeping food warm while the final touches are put to a meal. For best results, pre-heat a covered serving dish for 10 minutes before adding food to it. Use only heat resistant dishes.
Turn it further to use the inner ring as a normal hob plate.
Always use pans that are the same size as (or slightly larger
than) the areas marked on the hob top. Using smaller pans wastes heat, and any spillage will be burnt on. Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly.
The drawing by each knob indicates which area that knob controls. This one is the left
hand dual circuit control. The setting you need depends on
the kind of pan you use and the quantity of food. Higher settings are required for larger quantities of food.
Always lift pans off the hob. Sliding pans may cause marks
and scratches. Always turn the control to the off position before removing a pan.

GRILL
More about the grill on page 10
Remove the pan from the bottom of the grill compartment.
A cooling fan will start to run as soon as the grill is turned on. The fan will continue to run while the grill (or oven) is on and for about 10min after it is turned off. Never turn off the power supply to the cooker before the cooling fan stops.
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 backstop.
The grill has two elements that allow either the whole area of
the pan to be heated or only the right hand half of the grill pan to be heated.
Turn the control knob clockwise to heat the whole grill - turn it the other way to just heat the right hand half.

THE OVENS
More about the ovens on page 10
During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid the touching heating elements inside the oven.
3
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 oven indicator light will glow until the oven has
reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on and off during cooking.
2
Turn the oven knob to the temperature you need.
A cooling fan will start to run as soon as an oven is turned on. The fan will continue to run while the oven (or grill) is on and for about 10min after it is turned off. At low oven settings the fan may cycle on and off. Never turn off the power supply to the cooker before the cooling fan stops.

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 LEFT HAND OVEN THE RIGHT HAND FAN OVEN
The left hand conventional oven is fitted 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 deflector when placing or removing items from the oven.

You can use the timer to turn
the oven on and off. Check
clock is set to time of day. The clock must be set to the time of
day before the ovens will work.
To set the time of day
More about the clock on page 12
Press and hold as shown. 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.

PAR TS CHECK
You should have these loose parts with your cooker
Handyrack. The Handyrack is explained above. It may have been left fitted. It is easily removable.
Levelling tool. Your installer may have left this loose. Alternatively it may have been left behind the storage drawer. See page 12. You will only need it if you want to move your cooker
Handyrack
The Handyrack fits to the left hand oven door onl
y.
Food cooking on it is easy to attend to, because it’s accessible when the door is open. It can be fitted 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.
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.
The maximum weight which can be held by the Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb).
The roasting tray supplied with the oven fits into the Handyrack.
To fit the Handyrack, locate one side of it on the door bracket.
Then spring the other side out to clip it onto the other bracket.

The Hob
The hob control knobs can be turned either clockwise or anticlockwise.
On the dual circuit sections (those with two circles) turning the knob anticlockwise turns on the inner circle, turning it the other way heats up the whole area.
The kind of pan you use and the quantity of food affects the setting required. Higher settings are required for larger quantities of food.
Naturally, the surface must be washed after use in order to prevent it from becoming scratched or dirty.
When cooking on the hob you may see the hob area you are using switch off and on. This is caused by a safety device that limits the temperature of the hob. It is quite normal, especially when cooking at high temperatures. If it happens a lot with a particular pan however it may mean the pan is not suitable – perhaps too small or too uneven - for a ceramic hob.
Sugar spillage will permanently damage the hob and therefore must be cleaned off with care immediately. Never let sugar spillage cool before trying to remove it.
If sugar or foods with high sugar content, aluminium foil or plastic items are accidentally allowed to melt on the hob surface remove them immediately from the hot cooking area using a scraper to avoid any possible damage to the surface. See ‘Cleaning your cooker’.
Never cut directly on the cooking surface. Don't Cook directly on the hob surface i.e.
without a pan or utensil
Don’t Use the hob as a work surface Don’t Drag or slide utensils across the hob
surface
Don’t Place anything between the base of the pan and the hob surface (i.e. asbestos mats, aluminium foil, Wok stand)
Don't Leave utensils, foodstuffs or combustible items on the hob when it is not in use. (e.g. tea towels, frying pans containing oil)
Don't Place plastic or aluminium foil, or plastic containers on the hob
Don't Leave the hob zones switched on unless being used for cooking
Don't Place large preserving pans or fish kettles across two heating zones
Don't Place utensils partly covering a heating zone. Always place utensils centrally.
Never allow anyone to climb or stand on the hob.
The Warmer
The Warmer can be used for keeping food warm while the final touches are put to a meal.
Turn the control knob to the first position - don’t turn it any further as this will heat up the inner hob plate and plates etc. may be damaged.
For best results, pre-heat a covered serving dish for 10 minutes before adding food to it.
Use only heat resistant dishes.

The Grill
You should read ‘grill’ in the ‘2 Minute Tour’ before all the following information.
Never close the grill door while the grill is on.
Before using for the first time, run the grill full for 15 minutes (with the grill pan in position) to dispel manufacturing odours. Open a window to clear the smell.
Don’t leave the grill on for more than a few moments, without the grill pan underneath it.
A cooling fan will start to run as soon as the grill is turned on. The fan will continue to run while the grill (or oven) is on and for about 10min after it is turned off. Never turn off the power supply to the cooker before the cooling fan stops.
For best results, especially on 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 Ovens
You should read ‘the ovens’ in the ‘2 Minute Tour’ before all the following information.
The two ovens in your cooker are of different types.
• The right hand oven is a fanned oven. The fan circulates hot air continuously which results in faster heat transfer to the food.
• The left hand conventional oven is fitted with two 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.
Before using for the first time, heat the ovens to 200°C for 30 minutes to dispel manufacturing odours. Open a window to clear the smell.
A cooling fan will start to run as soon as an oven is turned on. The fan will continue to run while the oven (or grill) is on and for about 10min after it is turned off. At low oven settings the fan may cycle on and off. Never turn off the power supply to the cooker before the cooling fan stops.
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 320mm (12 1/2") by 305mm (12").
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.
• Always leave a ‘fingers width’ between dishes on the same shelf This allows the heat to circulate freely around them.
11
GB/IE
• 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.
Sufficient 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.
Oven shelves
The oven shelves can be easily removed and refitted.
the shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards
To refit 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
You should read ‘the oven’ in the ‘2 Minute Tour’ before all the following information
The maximum weight that can be held by the Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb).
When the Handyrack is used in its highest position, other dishes can be cooked on the bottom shelf position of the oven.
When the Handyrack is used in its lowest position, other dishes can be cooked on the fourth shelf position of the oven.
The meat tin supplied with the oven fits into the Handyrack.
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 finish to meat.
After the normal cooking is finished turn the left hand oven thermostat knob clockwise to the browning position, indicated by (
) on the 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.

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

GB/IE
The oven control settings and cooking times given opposite are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to provide a preferred result.
When baking in the right hand fanned oven, use the minimum cooking time shown in the table. Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce the temperature by 10°C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. The temperature in the fanned oven does not vary with height in the oven - so you can use any shelf.
Always leave at least one runner space between shelves when 2 tier cooking. Place baking trays, individual cake tins or baking dishes centrally on the oven shelf. For best results pre-heat the oven until the oven indicator light goes out.
Moving your cooker
Switch off the electricity supply.
The cooker is heavy; two people may be required to move it. The cooker is fitted with one roller at the front and two at the back. There are also two screw down levelling feet at the front.
The front roller, designed for moving the cooker can be wound down. The levelling tool that controls this roller is in the storage drawer compartment.
Remove the storage drawer (by pulling it right out and lifting it up slightly) and you should see the levelling tool.
Your installer may not have left the levelling tool in place. If not, locate it as shown. If you cannot find the levelling tool, contact your installer.
Turn the levelling tool clockwise, two full (180°) turns. It will be stiff. The front of the oven will rise slightly as the roller drops down.
Open the grill door and right hand oven door so that you can get a good grip on the bottom of the fascia panel as you move the oven.
Do not move the oven by pulling the handrail, door handles or knobs.
Move the oven a bit at a time, checking behind it to make sure the power cable is not caught. Make sure the electricity cable has sufficient slack to move the cooker forward as you go along.
When you replace the cooker, wind it down off the rollers by turning the levelling tool anti­clockwise. This is important. It will stop the cooker moving accidentally, while in use.

Cleaning your cooker
Essential information
Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity supply. Remember to switch on the electricity
supply before use.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt. Don’t mix different cleaning products - they may react together with hazardous results. Recommended cleaning materials are shown in the chart below.
If you want to move your cooker for cleaning, see the section called ‘Moving your cooker’.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy water - but take care that no surplus
water seeps into the appliance.
‡ Indicates how to clean after the oven linings have been removed. See opposite page for how to remove the oven linings
* VEA is the Vitreous Enamel Association. Look for aerosols with the VEA label.
Grill
The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot soapy water. After grilling meats or any foods that soil, leave to soak for a few minutes in the sink immediately after use. Stubborn particles may be removed from the grid by using a nylon brush.
Hob
It’s very easy to clean the Hob with a recommended cleaner.
CAUTION — Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads, oven aerosols or pads or stain removers on the surface.
Daily care
First of all, be sure that all heat indicator lights are off and the cooking surface is cool. Apply a small dab, about the size of a 10p piece, of ceramic cooking cleaning cream in the centre of each area to be cleaned. Dampen a clean paper towel and work the cleaning cream on the cooking surface as if you were cleaning a window. As a final step, wipe the cooking surface with a clean, dry paper towel.
Cleaning for spills
For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, turn the unit off 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 is completely cooled down and follow the instructions below (“Cleaning for burned-on spills”). If you accidentally melt anything on the cooking or if you spill foods with a high sugar content (preserves, tomato sauce, 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. Scrape the major spill or melted material from the cooking zone and push into a cold area. Then, turn the unit “OFF” and allow to cool before cleaning further. After the cooking surface cools down and the heat indicator lights go off, use the daily care procedure as outlined above.
17
GB/IE
Cleaning for burned-on spills
Be sure that the heat indicator lights are off and the hob is cool. Remove excess burned-on substance with a single-edged razor scraper. Hold the scraper at approximately a 30° angle to the surface and scrape off the burned-on matter as you would scrape paint off of a window.
IMPORTANT: Take care when using a sharp scraper.
When you have removed as much as possible with the scraper clean using the daily care procedure as described 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 be easily removed using the procedure described above for cleaning spills. If the rub-off marks are especially stubborn, use the cleaning cream together with the razor scraper, using the technique described above.
Control Panel and Oven Doors
Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream cleaners, e.g. Cif, on brushed Stainless Steel surfaces. For best results liquid detergents, e.g. Domestos Multi Surface Cleaner, should be used.
The control panel and control knobs should only be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water - but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance. Wipe with a clean dampened cloth then polish with a dry cloth. The oven doors should only be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water.
Oven
The ovens have removable panels that have been coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. This does not stop all marks on the lining, but helps to reduce the amount of manual cleaning needed.
The Cook & Clean panels work better above 200°C. If you do most of your cooking below this temperature, occasionally remove the panels and wipe with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water. The panels should then be dried and replaced and the oven heated at 200°C for about one hour. This will ensure the Cook & Clean panels are working effectively.
Don’t use steel wool (Brillo) or any other materials that will scratch the surface. Don’t use oven cleaning pads.
Removing the Oven Linings
Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning and for cleaning behind. Remove the shelves first.
The right hand fanned oven has a removable oven roof - slide the roof liner forward and remove.
The side panels of either oven can be removed. Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing screws. You don’t have to remove the screws to remove the oven linings. Lift each side panel upwards and they will slide off the screws. Then pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel interior can be cleaned.
When replacing the linings fit the side linings first.
Make sure you fit the oven roof with the slot at the front.

Troubleshooting
A crack has appeared in the Hob surface
Disconnect the cooker immediately from the power supply and arrange for its repair. Don’t use the cooker until after the repair. See the Customer care leaflet for how to contact a service person.
My Hob is scratched
Have you used the correct cleaning methods? Pots and pans with rough bottoms, or coarse particles (salt or sand) between the pan
and the surface of the hob may cause scratches. Use the recommended cleaning methods. Make sure pan bottoms are smooth and clean.
Tiny scratches are not removable but will become less visible in time as a result of cleaning.
Metal markings on the Hob
Do not slide aluminium or copper pans across the surface. Marks from aluminium and copper pans as well as mineral deposits from water or food can be removed with the cleaning cream.
Steam is coming from the oven
When cooking foods with a high water content (e.g. oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille. Take care when opening the oven door as there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
The oven fan is noisy
The note of the oven fan may change as the oven heats up - this is perfectly normal.
What cleaning materials are recommended for the cooker?
See the ‘Cleaning’ section of the Easy Guide for a full list of recommended cleaning materials. We do not recommend Mr. Muscle, as it contains chemicals that may damage the surfaces of your cooker.
The knobs get hot when I use the oven or the grill, can I avoid this?
Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven or the grill, and heating them up. Don’t leave the oven door open. Make sure that the grill pan is pushed right back to the ‘back stop’ when grilling.
If there is an installation problem and I don’t get my original installer to come back to fix it who pays?
You do. Service organisations will charge for their call outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original installer. It’s in your interest to track down your original installer.
Current Operated Earth Leakage Breakers
Where the cooker installation is protected by a 30 milliamp sensitivity residual current device (RCD), the combined use of your cooker and other domestic appliances may occasionally cause nuisance tripping. In these instances the cooker circuit may need to be protected by fitting 100mA device. This work should be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Troubleshooting
Food is cooking too slowly, too quickly, or burning
Cooking times may differ from your previous oven. Check that you are using the recommended temperatures and shelf positions. See page 15. The oven control settings and cooking times are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered either way, to get the results you want. Try cooking at a higher temperature setting. Is the oven roof in?
The oven is not cooking evenly
Do not use a tin or tray larger than 320mm x 305mm. If you are cooking a large item, be prepared to turn it round during cooking. If two shelves are used, check that space has been left for the heat to circulate. When a baking tray is put into the oven, make sure it is placed centrally on the shelf. Check that the door seal is not damaged and that the door catch is adjusted so that the door is held firmly against the seal. A dish of water when placed on the shelf should be the same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper at the back, then the back of the cooker should be raised up or the front lowered). If the cooker is not level arrange for your supplier to level it for you.
Oven not coming on when turned on manually
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there may be something wrong with the power supply. Is the cooker supply on at the isolator switch? Is the clock flashing 0.00? If so set it to the correct time of day. Has the Timer been set to AUTO by mistake? If AUTO is showing on the clock display, press the ‘cook period’ button and reduce any set
cooking time showing to 0.00, with the (+) and (-) buttons. Press the
button twice. If
this does not solve the problem contact a service person.
Oven not coming on when automatic cooking
Timer set correctly but oven knob left OFF by mistake?
Oven temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older
If turning the knob down has not worked or only worked for a short time then you may need a new thermostat. This should be fitted by a service person.
Grill not cooking properly
Are you using the pan and trivet supplied with the cooker? Is the pan being used on the runners, not the floor of the compartment? Is the grill tray pushed fully back to stop?
The oven light is not working
The bulb has probably blown. You can buy a replacement bulb (which is not covered under the guarantee) from a good electrical shop. Ask for an Edison screw fitting 15w 240v lamp, FOR OVENS. It must be a special bulb, heat resistant to 300 °C. See the Customer Care leaflet for spares by mail order.
Open the oven door and remove the Handyrack (if fitted) and oven shelves.
Turn off the power supply.
Unscrew the bulb cover by turning anticlockwise. Unscrew the old bulb. Screw in the new bulb, screw back the bulb cover. Turn on the electricity supply and check that the bulb now lights.

GB/IE
The cooker must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the installation instructions. It should be serviced by a qualified service engineer and only approved spare parts used. Have the installer show you the location of the cooker control switch. Mark it for easy reference. Always allow the cooker to cool and then switch off at the mains and before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work, unless specified otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the cooker become hot with use and will retain heat even after you have stopped cooking.
Take care when touching the hob especially the marked cooking areas. The glass surface of the hob will retain heat after the controls have been turned off. To minimize the possibility of burns, always be certain that the hob controls are in the OFF position and that the entire glass surface is cool before attempting to clean the hob.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable ­using damp gloves might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface. Never operate the cooker with wet hands.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a glove. They might catch fire if they touch a hot surface.
Always turn the surface unit controls off before removing the pans.
Don’t place utensils on the hob surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.
Clean the hob with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Do not use unstable saucepans and position the handles away from the edge of the hotplate.
Babies, toddlers and young children should not be allowed near the cooker at any time. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance. Teach them not to play with controls or any other part of the cooker.
General Safety Instructions
Never store anything of interest to children in cabinets above a cooker - children climbing on the cooker to reach them could be seriously injured.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the cooker should be kept clean at all times as a build up in fats and other food stuff could result in a fire.
We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator light has gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to this. Please see ‘Cleaning your cooker’. When the hob is cool, use only the recommended cleaning cream to clean the hob.
To avoid possible damage to the cooking surface, do not apply the cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream labels. After cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove any cleaning cream residue.
Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage the hob and the pan.
Always keep combustible wall coverings or curtains etc. a safe distance away from your cooker.
Do not place or store items on top of the glass hob surface when it is not in use.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the cooker while it is in on.
Do not store or use combustible materials, or flammable liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. 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 multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Never leave the hob unattended at high heat settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking and greasy spills may catch on fire.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging clothes while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets over the hob.
21
GB/IE
Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with a hot surface unit and may cause severe burns.
Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they will ignite if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
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. 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. Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
When the grill is on, 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.
When using an electrical appliance near the hob, be sure that the cord of the appliance does not come into contact with the surface area.
If you find a crack in the hob surface immediately disconnect the appliance from the supply and arrange for its repair.
Take care that no water seeps into the appliance
Only certain types of glass, glass­ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for hob cooking; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.
Use proper pan size-select pans having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit’s heating area. The use of undersized pans will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of pans to surface unit will also improve efficiency.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on any part of the cooker.
Do not use aluminium foil to cover shelves, linings or the oven roof.
Make sure that your kitchen is well ventilated at all times. Use extractor fans or hoods when fitted.
Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make container burst and cause injury.
The cooker is designed for cooking foods only and must not be used for any other purpose.
The oven should NOT be used for heating the kitchen, not only does this waste fuel but the control knobs may become overheated.
When the oven is on DO NOT leave the oven door open for longer than necessary.
The specification of this cooker should not be altered.
This appliance is heavy, take care when moving it.
When the cooker is not in use ensure that the control knobs are in the off position.
Do not slide pans across the hob because this can scratch the glass - the glass is scratch resistant, not scratch proof. Sharp instruments, rings or other jewellery and rivets on clothing could scratch the hob surface.
Do not use the surface as a cutting board.
Don’t store heavy items above the hob. If they drop on the hob, they could cause damage.

Positioning the Cooker
The diagrams below show the minimum recommended distance from the cooker to nearby surfaces.
The cooker should not be placed on a base.
The hob should be level with, or above, any adjacent work surface. Above hob level a gap of 75mm should be left between each side of the cooker and any adjacent vertical surface. Surfaces above hobplate level at the sides and rear of the appliance should be heat, splash and steam resistant e.g. tiles.
For non combustible surfaces (such as unpainted metal or ceramic tiles) the gap at the side of the cooker above hotplate level can be reduced to 25mm.
For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the cooker.
A minimum space of 650mm is required between the top of the hob and a horizontal combustible surface.
We recommend a gap of 1110mm between units to allow for moving the cooker. If a flush fit is required, fit the cooker up to the unit at one side then fit the unit the other side. Do not box the cooker in; it must still be possible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and servicing.
*Any cooker hood should be installed in accordance with the hood manufacturer’s instructions.
Plan view A clearance of 130mm each side is required to allow for oven door opening.
Unpacking the Cooker
Do not take any packaging off the cooker until it is directly in front of the place it is to be installed (unless it will not fit through a door in its outer packaging). Cut the banding straps and lift the cardboard box off the cooker, LEAVING THE COOKER STANDING ON THE BASE PACKAGING. See the loose unpacking sheet.

Moving the Cooker
The cooker is very heavy. Take great care. We recommend two people manoeuvre the cooker. Ensure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker around. You will need the levelling tool.
Pull the warmer drawer out to its furthest point. Lift it up and out.
Fit the levelling tool on the rectangular adjuster as shown below.
LOWER THE FRONT ROLLER by doing 14 complete (360°) turns clockwise. (This means turning and removing the levelling tool 56 times).
Now LOWER THE TWO REAR ROLLERS. First fit the levelling tool on the hexagonal adjusting nut as shown below.
Make 10 complete (360°) turns clockwise. (This means turning and removing the levelling tool 20 times).
Make sure you lower BOTH REAR ROLLERS. There are two adjusting nuts, one for each roller, at both the front bottom corners of the cooker.
Carefully push the cooker backwards close to its final position leaving just enough space to get behind it. Take care not to damage the power cable.
Do not use the door handles or control knobs to manoeuvre the cooker. Remove the pack base tray.
Levelling
You are recommended to use a spirit level on a shelf in one of the ovens to check for level.
Place the cooker in its intended position taking care not to twist it within the gap between the kitchen units as damage may occur to the cooker or the units.
The rollers can be adjusted to level the cooker. To adjust the height of the rear of the cooker use the levelling tool supplied to turn the adjusting nuts at the front bottom corners of the cooker.
Adjust the height of the front roller to level the cooker. Turn clockwise to raise the cooker and anticlockwise to lower.
When you are satisfied with the height and level raise the front of the cooker by one turn of the front roller adjuster. Screw down the front feet to meet the floor. Screw the front roller adjuster anticlockwise to raise the front roller so that the front of the cooker is supported on the feet, not the front roller, to prevent accidental movement of the cooker.
Leave the levelling tool on the adjuster with the handle of the tool facing the rear of the cooker, so that the customer can use it if they wish to move the cooker.
Replace the drawer by locating on side runners and push in.
