This cooker 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

6
Always use oven gloves to remove
and replace food in the oven.
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when it is in the withdrawn or partially
withdrawn position.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 20 and 24.
Never line any part of the cooker

Cookers and hobs become very hot,
and retain their heat for a long period
of time after use. Children should be
kept well away from the cooker until
it has cooled.
GENERAL
Under no circumstances should
repairs be carried out by
inexperienced persons as this may
cause injury or serious malfunction.
This cooker should be serviced by

INTRODUCTION
WARNING: THIS COOKER 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
cooker and can be seen upon opening the main oven
door.
The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker 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.
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,
remove the grill deflector and lift the cooker by
holding inside the top of the oven compartment.
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.
This is a type Y appliance which means it is
free-standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one
or both sides. If 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 the sides of the cooker
is required to enable the cooker to be moved into
position.
A spacer has 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 34 for your nearest
Service Centre. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will
be made.
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR
COOKER
We suggest that you run all the elements for a short
period to burn off any residue from their surfaces.
To do this, run the ovens at 220°C for approximately
45 minutes. The procedure should be repeated with
the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
During this period an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window
for ventilation.
POP IN POP OUT CONTROL KNOBS
These control knobs can remain flush with the
control panel when not in use, or pushed and
released to stand out from the panel for easy
operation.
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 the
cooling fan does not switch on until the cook time
begins.
NOTE:The action of the cooling fan will depend on
how long the top oven or grill have been used and at
what temperature. It may not run on where the grill or
top oven has only been used for a short time or at
low temperatures. Do not switch the cooker off at
the power point, until the fan has cooled the cooker
down.
THE SHELF POSITIONS
Recommended shelf positions have been shown in
the cooking charts on pages 22 and 26.
Bulk cooking with even spacing can be achieved
using three shelves at any one time, e.g. position 1
straight, position 3 straight and position 5 straight.
It is important that the shelves are fitted right
side uppermost and are between the wirework
side runners.
If not fitted correctly the shelf will lie at an angle and
the safety stop will not be effective. To ensure that
the shelf has the correct side uppermost, the wire
stringers which make up the shelf should lie on top of
the surrounding frame.
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. 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 cooker.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
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 cycle 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. When the oven has been
set for automatic cooking the neon should remain
unlit until the cook time begins.
9
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 meat tin
1 trivet

Scuffing of the Stayclean oven lining by the oven
furniture pack may occur during transit.

have been burnt off for the first time.
