To get the best from your new Tricity Bendix cooker, we ask that you PLEASE
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. Particular attention should be

be taken when moving it.
Ensure that all packaging, both
inside and outside the cooker has

contact with water. Never operate it
with wet hands.
This cooker is designed to be
operated by adults. Young children
must not be allowed to tamper with
the cooker or play with the controls.
During use the cooker becomes hot.
Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside the
oven.
Accessible parts especially around
the grill area may become hot when
the cooker 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 cooker has been designed for
cooking edible foodstuffs only, and
must not be used for any other
purposes.
The electrical installation work must
be undertaken by a qualified
electrician / competent person.
It is dangerous to alter or modify
the specifications of the cooker in
any way.
Do not use the cooker if the ceramic
glass is damaged. If a fault or crack
becomes visible during cooking,
disconnect the cooker immediately
from the electricity supply and
contact your local Tricity Bendix
Service Force Centre. Do not place
silver foil or plastic containers on
ceramic glass.
After installation, please dispose of
the packaging with due regard to
safety and the environment, your
local authority can arrange this.
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. Use the
handle provided in the
recommended way.
6
Always use oven gloves to remove
and replace food in the oven.
Ensure that you support the grill pan

withdrawn position.
Ensure that all vents are left
unobstructed to ensure ventilation of
the oven.
Ensure that the anti-tilt shelves are

instructions on pages 18 and 20.
Never line any part of the cooker with
aluminium foil. Do not allow
heatproof cooking material, e.g.
roasting bags to come into contact
with oven elements.
Always stand back from the cooker
when opening the oven door to allow
any build up of steam or heat to
release.
Cookers and hobs become very hot,
and retain their heat for a long period
of time after use. Children should be

INTRODUCTION
WARNING: THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED
RATING PLATE
Record the model, product and serial numbers on the
back cover from the rating plate. This is situated on
the lower front frame of the cooker and can be seen
upon opening the top oven door.
The cable should be routed away from potentially hot
areas marked by X in the diagram below.
The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker is
given on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the cooker
as this may invalidate the guarantee.
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.
REAR VIEW
To move the cooker, open the fan oven door, and lift
the cooker by holding inside the top of the
compartment.
This is a type Y cooker 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.
Ensure that the cooker is standing level.
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.
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.
The recommended cross-section area is six square
millimetres (6.00mm²).
8
A nominal air gap of 2mm all around the cooker is
required to enable the cooker to be moved into
position.
Always ensure an air gap is maintained at hotplate
level. Tiles or other forms of deep wall covering
should not obscure this gap.
Air gap
Note: Vapours from the oven vents may in time
cause discolouration of wallcoverings behind the
cooker. For ease of cleaning it may be preferable to
tile behind the cooker.
Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a
minimum of 685mm above the hob.
It is important to ensure that the cooker is level after
installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the cooker to
accommodate uneven floors.
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
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
The cooling fan operates immediately when the grill
or top oven is switched on. It may run on after the
controls are switched off until the appliance has
cooled. If an automatic programme has been set for
the top oven, the cooling fan does not switch on until
the cooktime begins.
The cooling fan may operate after a time when the
fan oven is in use. This will depend on the
temperature setting and the length of time the oven
has been in use.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the ovens are switched
on.
The neons also indicate when the set temperature
has been reached. They will turn on and off during
use to show that the temperature is being
maintained.
If the neons do not operate as the instructions
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.
Return all controls to zero and re-set following the
instructions for the required setting.
When the oven has been set for automatic cooking
the neon should remain unlit during OFF periods.
COOKWARE
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven.
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of
this steam to escape. However, always stand back
from the cooker 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 cooker, 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
including the vent at the rear of the hob. See note
at the top of this page.
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the
cooker should be securely fixed to the wall.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm
(12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.
