DURING OPERATION
Do not use this appliance if it is in contact with water. Never operate it with wet hands.
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Young children must not be allowed to tamper with the product or play with the controls.
Accessible parts especially around the grill area may become hot when the appliance is in use. Children should be kept away until it has cooled.
Take great care when heating fats and oils as they will ignite if they become too hot.
This product has been designed for cooking edible foodstuffs only, and must not be used for any other purposes.
Never place plastic or any other material which may melt in the oven or on the hob.
Ensure cooking utensils are large enough to contain foods to prevent spillages and boil overs.
The handles of saucepans which are smaller than the heated area on the hob will become hot. Ensure your hand is protected before handling the pan.
Take care to follow the recommendations given for tending the food when grilling.
Do not leave the handle in position when grilling as it will become hot.
6
Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the oven. Similarly always use oven gloves to remove and replace the grill pan handle when grilling.
Recommendations given on page 15.
Ensure that you support the grill pan when it is in the withdrawn or partially withdrawn position.
Ensure that all vents are left unobstructed to ensure ventilation of the oven cavity.
Ensure that the anti-tilt shelves are put in place correctly. Refer to instructions on pages 17 and 20.
Never line any part of the appliance with aluminium foil.
Always stand back from the appliance when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
Do not place sealed cans or aerosols inside the oven. They may explode if they are heated.
Do not leave the hotplates switched on for long periods when not covered by a saucepan. The controls and cabinets may overheat.
AFTER USE
Ensure that all control knobs are in the OFF position when not in use.
For hygiene and safety reasons this appliance should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially in the grill pan.
Do not leave utensils containing foodstuffs, e.g. fat or oil in or on the appliance in case it is inadvertently switched ON.

INTRODUCTION
The cable should be routed away from potentially hot ed by X in the diagram below.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
RATING PLATE
Record the model, product and serial numbers on the back cover of this instruction book, from the rating plate. This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the oven door.
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.
INSTALLATION
If your cooker has been damaged in transit, contact your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install it.
Your cooker left the factory fully packaged to protect it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging and damage has occurred, the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for advice.
Once the packaging has been removed the cooker should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack barrow or any other aid to lift the cooker as damage may occur.
Connection to the electricity supply must be carried out by a qualified electrician/competent person.
The electrical connection should be made using a double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at least 3mm contact separation. The cable must have conductors of sufficiently high cross-sectional area to prevent overheating and deterioration.
Six square millimetres (6.00mm²) is the recommended cross-section area.
The cable should be routed away from potentially hot areas marked by X in the diagram below.
To move the cooker, open the main oven door and lift the cooker by holding inside the top of the compartment.
This is a type X appliance which means it is free-standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one or both sides. It may also be fitted in a corner setting.
Side walls which are above hob level should be protected by heat resistant non-combustible material and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob side.
A nominal air gap of 2mm at either side of the cooker is required to enable the cooker to be moved into position. It is recommended that proprietary trims are fitted to protect the worktops of either side of the appliance. These are available from most DIY stores.
Two spacers have been incorporated into the back of the appliance to ensure an air gap of 10mm is maintained at hotplate level. Tiles or other forms of deep wall covering should not obscure this gap.
8
Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a minimum of 685mm above the hob.
It is important to ensure that the appliance is level after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front of the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.
REVERSIBLE MAIN OVEN DOOR
If you require the oven door to be hinged on the opposite side, you will need to contact a qualified Service Engineer. See page 29 for your nearest Service Centre. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will be made.
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR COOKER
We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 - 15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from their surfaces.
The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of this steam to escape between the wall and the rear of the appliance. However, always stand back from the appliance when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
For your safety, wall coverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
OVEN / GRILL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the ovens or grill are switched on. In the case of the ovens, they also indicate when the set temperature has been reached. They will cycle on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained. The grill neon may cycle when the grill is switched on.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
The cooling fan will always come on when the grill and the top oven are switched on. If they are only used for a short period of time the fan will switch off when the controls are turned off. If the grill or the top oven are used for a longer period of time the fan will run on depending on the temperature, and may cycle on and off until the cooker has cooled.
In the case of the main oven the cooling fan may not switch on except when used for a longer period of time. The cooling fan may run on, and cycle on and off after the control knobs have been switched off, until the cooker has cooled. Do not switch the cooker off at its power point until the fan has cooled the cooker down.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker:
1 grill pan
1 grill pan handle
1 grill pan grid
1 grill deflector
1 cranked shelf for grilling and top oven cooking only
2 straight shelves
for main oven cooking
The grill deflector sits above the grill element and prevents fat splashing onto the grill roof.
The deflector may be easily removed for cleaning.
