Cooker technology is constantly improving. The way you use your new cooker may be different from the way you used your old one. Please read the whole instruction book before using your new cooker. This cooker is intended for normal domestic use. Take care of the instruction book which will be needed by the new owner if the cooker is sold or passed on to someone else. Do not hesitate to contact us with questions or viewpoints about the cooker and its use.

ANY TEXT MARKED WITH A warning triangle is to do with safety. PLEASE READ THESE TEXTS CAREFULLY, so that you do not harm yourself, others or the cooker.

Children are naturally curious and interested in most things, including the cooker. From a safety point of view, we would like to emphasis the following for those with children at home:

There should be worktops on both sides of the cooker extending at least 40 cm to left and to right. Alternatively the cooker can be installed with a wall or a tall kitchen unit on one side and a worktop on the other side. The NON-TIP DEVICE should be fitted to prevent the cooker

from tipping forwards if subjected to an abnormal loading.

The HOB GUARD (included or optional) should be fitted and the DOOR CATCH/DOOR CATCHES should be acti-

vated.

Do not let children use the razor blade scraper. Children should be allowed to help with cooking, but

teach them that pans, hotplates and ovens become hot and retain their heat for some time after use. TOUCHING THESE

CAN CAUSE BURNS.

fåëí~ää~íáçå

Work on the cooker must be carried out by a qualified electrician. Work performed by unqualified persons can damage the cooker, and may also lead to personal injury and/or damage to property.

The cooker is heavy. Certain edges and corners which will not normally be exposed may be sharp. Use gloves when moving the cooker.

The NON-TIP DEVICE should be fitted, to prevent the cooker from tipping if subjected to an abnormal loading.

tЬЙе=млбеЦ=нЬЙ=ЕззвЙк

Never use the ceramic hob if it is cracked, as water from spillages and/or cleaning could penetrate down to live conductors. If the hob is damaged, disconnect the cooker from the electrical supply and contact your service centre to have the cooker repaired.

Never place aluminium foil, plastics etc. on the ceramic hob. If a hotplate is switched on by mistake, these materials will rapidly start to burn or melt.

Never leave the cooker unattended while deep frying, or when using it for melting fats, paraffin wax or other flammable substances. In the event of a fire, turn off all

the controls and turn off the cooker hood fan. SMOTHER

THE FIRE WITH A PAN LID, never use water.

Use only pans which are intended for ceramic hobs. Use only ovenproof dishes and containers in the oven. Check the bases of your pans. Pans with convex bases are poor conductors of heat, and also tend to spin easily on the flat ceramic hob.

Check that the cooker is switched off when not in use. All controls should be turned off.

Warning! Alcohol and other liquids that can form explosive gases, or other substances that could cause a fire or explosion, must not be used in the oven.

Great care must be taken when using such liquids and substances on the hob. For example, when preparing food on the hob with flaming brandy, or any other type of alcohol, there is always a risk that fat particles in the hob fan may catch fire with serious consequences. Flames and burning fat spills can also cause personal injury.

`äÉ~åáåÖ

Keep the ceramic hob and oven clean. Fat and spillages give off smoke and odours when heated, and, at worst, can cause fires.

Use the scraper to remove immediately (while the hob is still warm) any spilt sugar or syrups (e.g. jam), and melted plastics and foil. These can damage the hob if left. Be careful as the razor blade is extremely sharp.

j~бенЙе~еЕЙ=~еЗ=лЙкобЕЙ

Turn all controls off before changing any bulbs.

Service and repairs should be carried out by a service company approved by the supplier. Use only spare parts supplied by such companies.

^н=нЬЙ=ЙеЗ=зС=нЬЙ=ЕззвЙкЫл=дбСЙ

Help prevent accidents when the cooker has reached the end of its useful life. Make sure first that the lead is completely disconnected from the electrical supply (pull out the plug, or have the cooker safely disconnected from the wall), then cut the electrical lead at the point where it enters the cooker. Make sure that the door catch/door catches have been deactivated.

The non-tip device should be fitted, to prevent the cooker from tipping if subjected to an abnormal loading. The non-tip device can only provide protection when the cooker is pushed into its normal position.

Before fitting the non-tip device, make sure the cooker has been levelled and adjusted to the correct plinth height (see “Installation” on p. 19).

1Draw a line on the wall – after levelling the

cooker – along the top edge of the hob (see illustration).

2The measurements shown can be applied

whether the non-tip device is fitted on the left or the right (see illustration). Measure and mark where the non-tip device is to be placed, then screw it onto a solid material or a suitable rein-

forcement or fixings.

NOTE! If the space between kitchen units is wider than

the cooker, you will need to alter the measurements shown in the illustration if the cooker is to be centred.

3 If you alter the measurements, remember to

align the cooker correctly when pushing it into place, so that the non-tip device enters the hole on the cooker rear.

The hob guard should be fitted to make it harder for children to reach pans on the hob.

1 Press the plugs into the front holes.

2 Place the guard on the cooker with the plugs over the

edge of the hob.

3 Angle the guard downwards and then back upwards

so the edges on its two sides engage under the edge of the hob.

4 Lock it in place with the rear plugs.

Clean the cooker with a clean cloth, hot water and a little washing-up liquid straight after use. NEVER USE

ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCOURING AGENTS. The oven vent

cover can be washed in a dishwasher.

Remember that the non-tip device does not work when the cooker has been pulled forward to clean behind it.

Children should be supervised!

The cooker will get very hot.

Before you use the oven for the first time, you need to heat it empty. Follow these instructions:

1Select (top/bottom heat) and maximum temperature. The oven door should be shut.

2Ventilate the room. Switch off the oven once the “new” smell and fumes have ceased.

3Use hot water and washing-up liquid to wipe the

oven, side racks and the inside of the door. Then wipe all of these parts dry.

The ceramic hob has four cooking areas (hotplates). Even with the control still turned on during cooking, these areas may be seen to switch off and on at intervals, depending partly on the heat setting used. This switching can also occur with the control turned to its maximum setting, to prevent overheating.

The hot-hob warning device has four lights. A hotplate light will remain on, even after the hotplate control has been switched off, until the hotplate temperature falls below about 55°C.

The glass of the hob is resistant to heat, cold and rapid temperature changes, but it is vulnerable to impact. A pepper mill falling on the hob could crack it. Never stand or put heavy loads on the hob, or use it as a storage space.

rëáåÖ=íÜÉ=ÜçÄ

NEVER USE THE CERAMIC HOB IF IT IS CRACKED.

Water from spillages could seep through to the live conductors. Disconnect the cooker and contact your service centre to have the cooker repaired. Use the scraper to remove immediately

(while the hob is still warm) spilt sugar or syrups (e.g. jam), and melted plastics and foil. These can damage the hob if left. Never leave the cooker unattended while deep fat frying, melting fats, paraffin wax or other flammable substances. In the event of a fire, turn off all the controls and the

cooker hood fan. SMOTHER THE FIRE WITH A PAN

LID, never use water.

The heating zone controls are graduated from 0 to 12 (12 is the hottest). They can be turned both clockwise and anticlockwise.

TO USE THE HOB:

1Turn the control for the heating zone you are going to use.

2Reset the control after use.

Which heat setting should you use? You will soon learn which setting and heating zone to choose depending on your pans and what you are cooking. Here is a brief guide to choosing the correct setting:

You normally start cooking with the hotplate switched to maximum heat before turning it down to a lower heat. The sound and size of the water bubbles can help you to choose the correct setting:

GENTLE HEAT: Simmering with tiny bubbles as in carbonated

water. Suitable for cooking rice, fish and vegetables such as sugar peas and broccoli.

MEDIUM HEAT: Gently boiling with larger bubbles.

Suitable for boiling most foods, such as meat, root vegetables and potatoes.

HOT: The sound disappears before the water starts

bubbling vigorously. Suitable for boiling water for pasta and rice. Then turn the heat down for more gentle cooking.

cкубеЦ

It is best when frying not to use food that has come straight out of the refrigerator. Only about 2/3 of the bottom of the pan should be covered by food.

Put the margarine or butter in the frying pan and turn on to the recommended heat. In order to get the best results, it is important that the fat is the right colour (temperature) when you start frying. Hold a light-coloured spatula to the bottom of the pan to see the colour of the fat.

LIGHTLY BROWNED FAT: Suitable for eggs, onions, raw

potatoes, chops and steaks and whole fish, etc.

BROWNED FAT: Suitable for frying most foods such as

pancakes, minced meats, sausages, thin fish fillets and stewing steak.

WELL BROWNED FAT: Suitable for thin steaks. Be careful as the fat can easily become burnt.
