Installation and Servicing Instructions
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
06/10 EINS 514896
REMEMBER, when replacing a part on this appliance, use only spare parts that you can be assured conform to the safety and performance specification that we require. Do not use reconditioned or copy parts that have not been clearly authorised by Waterford Stanley.
Be safe
Warning
Accessible parts will become hot in use. To avoid burns and scalds children should be kept away.
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 the 'General Safety Instructions' section if you have not used a gas cooker before. We describe some basic guidelines on how to use a gas cooker safely.
Gas and Electricity
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 and a little smoke. This is normal and harmless (from oven lagging and starch binder on the element insulation) and will cease after a short period of use.

Before the fan oven can be used, it will be necessary to set the ‘time-of-day-clock’. This is a 24-hour clock, and when the power supply is initially switched on, or after an interruption in supply, the clock will
show 12.00 and the L 4 will flash above the sign.
SETTING THE TIME OF DAY
1. Whilst the L 4 is flashing, press the plus + and/or minus buttons until the display shows the correct time of day.
2. After 5 seconds, the L4 will stop flashing.
The setting can be altered at any time by using the MODE button until the L 4 flashes and pressing the plus + and minus
- buttons.
The cooker is now ready for use.

The drawing above 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 large flame symbol ( ).
Keep holding the knob pressed in to let the gas through to the burner for a few seconds. The igniter will spark and light the gas automatically.
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.
On this cooker the low position is beyond high, not between high and off. The small flame ( ) marks the ‘low position’.
Turn the knob towards it after the contents of a pan have boiled.
Place all pans centrally over the burners. The flames must be on the base of the pan. Do not allow the flames to go up the sides of the pan.
Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly.
Always position pan handles away from the front of the cooker, out of reach of small children.
Pan and kettles with concave bases or down turned base rims should not be used.
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.
Do not use oversized pans that overhang the edges of the pan supports.
Minimum pan sizes
The minimum pan diameter recommended is 120mm (about 4
3
/4
”).
When the hotplate control knob is pressed in, sparks will be made at every burner, this is normal.
If, after lighting the hotplate burner flame goes out, turn it off and leave it for one minute before relighting it.
IMPORTANT: The cast iron pan supports on the appliance are of a professional design and much heavier than most if not all gas hob cookers. Therefore care must be taken when removing or re­fitting them from or to the hob. It is important that they are lifted from the appliance. Do not drag them across adjacent enamelled components as this could damage the enamel.
Y ou can remove the burner head for cleaning. See the ‘Cleaning your cooker’ section of these instructions for removal and fitting of the pan supports and burner parts.
You should wipe the top surface of the cooker around the hotplate burners as soon as possible after spills occur. Try to wipe them off while the hotplate is still warm.

Hotplate Burners
Deep Fat Frying
z
Use a deep pan large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area.
z
Never fill the pan more than one-third full of fat or oil.
z
Never leave fat or oil unattended during the heating or cooking period.
z
Never use a lid on the pan.
z
IMPORTANT: Oil is a fire risk; do not leave pans containing oil unattended.
z
In the event of fire cover with a lid and turn OFF the appliance.
Do not attempt to extinguish the fire using water.
Smother the flames on the hob rather than attempting to remove the pan to the outside.
Burns and injuries are caused almost invariably by picking up the burning pan to carry outside.
z
Do not try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting in greasy food.
z
Always dry food thoroughly before frying and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in particular, will cause frothing or spitting, if added to quickly.
z
Keep the outside of the pan, clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.
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’ or an enamel rubber.
Fish Kettle Burner
The central hotplate burner can be used to cook whole salmon, trout, etc. in a fish kettle.
Suggested Method for cooking whole Salmon
Place the gutted and cleaned fish, with or without head and tail in to the kettle with sufficient water to almost cover the fish. Season with salt and pepper and add a few pieces of carrot, onion and parsley to give flavour. Bring to the boil, covered and simmer for 8 - 10 mins per 450g (1 lb). When cooked, leave to cool in the liquid before draining, and removing the skin. Decorate as desired.

This oven is for long, slow cooking over 6-8 hours, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods.
Extra care must be taken when warming bone china ­use the lowest setting.
Using the Slow Cooking Setting
The slow cooking setting is in the area marked between 110° - 120°C on the oven control knob.
The Slow Cooking oven has side panels that are coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. For more on cleaning the ovens see the ‘Cleaning your cooker’ section of these instructions.
Points to bear in mind when preparing food. Do not place dishes directly on to the oven base. Always
place onto shelf supplied. The shelf is designed to lock in place, but is removable for
cleaning. See the ‘Cleaning your cooker’ section of these instructions.
Push dishes well back in the oven to ensure that they are positioned over the element beneath the base plate.
Make sure all dishes will fit into the oven before preparing the food.
All dishes cooked by the slow cooking method should be cooked for a minimum of 6 hours. They will ‘hold’ at this setting for a further 1-2 hours but marked deterioration in appearance will be noticed in some cases.
Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at 180°C for 30 minutes before transferring to the slow cooking oven.
Meat over 2.7 kg (6lbs) and poultry over 2kg (4lbs 8ozs) are unsuitable for the slow cooking method.
Always stand covered joints on a rack over a meat tin, to allow good air circulation.
Make sure that pork and poultry reach an internal temperature of at least 90°C.
Slow cooking is unsuitable for stuffed meat and poultry. Always brings soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil
before putting in the oven. When casseroles are used, cover the food first with foil and then the lid to prevent loss of moisture.
Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small pieces. Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of the
cooking time. Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and
should be included in day cooking sessions, where they can be observed from time to time.
Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of ten minutes, after soaking, and before inclusion in any dish.
Storage and Re-Heating of Food
If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it in a clean container as quickly as possible.
Thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re­heating.
Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the hotplate or in a hot oven 200°C (180°C fan oven), and then serve immediately.

CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.
If you find a crack in the glass surface of the grill immediately disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Do not reconnect the appliance until it is repaired.
THE GRILL COMPARTMENT DOOR MUST BE KEPT OPEN WHEN THE GRILL IS ON.
The very high speed instant grill is divided into two areas to save energy and to suit individual grilling requirements.
Turn the grill control clockwise and the whole of the grilling area can be used for large amounts of food.
For small amounts of food e.g. 2 slices of toast, one or two chops etc. turn the control anti­clockwise. Only the middle area of the grill heats up.
Most food is cooked at a high setting but for thicker pieces of meat/poultry and for food such as well done steak the heat can be reduced by turning the control down to a lower setting.
For best results pre-heat at a high setting for approximately 2 minutes.
The grill pan fits on the shelf supplied (shown out of the grill chamber for clarity).
The shelf is designed to lock in place, but is removable for cleaning. See the ‘Cleaning the cooker’ section of these instructions.
Make sure the grill pan is pushed right to the back of the grill chamber.
Food should be cooked on the grid or in the base of the grill pan. You can brown the top of dishes, cooked in the oven, under the grill by placing the dish onto the base of the grill pan, which can easily slide along the floor of the grill cavity.
The grill chamber has side panels that are coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. For more on cleaning the cooker see the ‘Cleaning the cooker’ section of these instructions.

The Grill (Top Right)
During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the ovens.
The clock must be set to the time of day before the left hand oven will work. See ‘Setting up the cooker for use’ section of these instructions for how to set the clock.
Both the lower ovens are fan ovens. The fans circulate hot air continuously, which means faster more even cooking.
It is only necessary to pre-heat the ovens for food such as scones, puff pastry, Yorkshire Pudding, bread etc.
To operate either oven
Before using for the first time, heat the ovens to 200°C for 30 minutes to dispel manufacturing odours.
NOTE: The recommended cooking temperatures for fan ovens are generally lower than non-fanned ovens. (See Page 16).
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.
The Oven Lights
Turn the oven light knob to the left for the left hand oven
light and to the right for the right hand oven light. To turn on both lights turn the knob to the bottom position.

The Fan Ovens

Cooking Hints
When using the fan ovens, reduce conventional oven settings by 10ºC - 20ºC and cooking time by up to 10 minutes for every hour.
Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for baking on several shelves at one time.
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven.
Baking trays, meat tins etc. should be placed level centrally on the oven shelves. Keep all trays and containers away from the sides of the oven, as ovenbrowning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended size of baking tray is 300mm x 240mm (12” x 9
1
/2”).
When the oven is on, do not 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, and between dishes and the sides of the oven, this allows the heat to circulate freely around them.
The base of a pastry dish can be browned by pre-heating 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.
Please remember that all cookers vary - temperatures in the new Aga Masterchef ovens may differ to those other cookers. Settings and cooking times can be changed to suit individual tastes. It is important to check that food is piping hot before serving.
The cooking chart is a general guide but times and temperatures may vary according to individual recipes. The meat sections should be used as a general guide but may vary according to the size, shape of joint on or off the bone.
Thaw frozen joints before cooking them. The times are for open roasting, If covered allow extra
time. The turkey/chicken is cooked when the juices run clear
when pierced with a skewer. If the juices are still pink continue to cook checking every 15 minutes.
Do not place the shelf or food on the base of the ovens.
Steam
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.
Condensation may form on the cooker. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and moisture are present. Whenever possible try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture for example casseroles are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up straight away. Do not leave food in the oven to cool after it has been switched off.
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.
General
The fan ovens are fitted with side, roof and back panels that are coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. The oven liners (see Cleaning the 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 and brush lightly with cooking oil.
For more on cleaning the ovens see the ‘Cleaning the cooker’ section of these instructions.
Do not allow young children to stand on the drop down oven doors.
