Cooking in the Oven

Traditional cooking is made by natural convection; the heated air circulates on the principle of ascending and descending draughts. It is necessary to pre-heat the oven.

All cookers vary and it is important to be aware of the approximate cooking temperatures before you use the cooker.

The chart shows the gas mark temperatures together with the approximate equivalent temperatures in

Gas Mark Temperature oC

1 160 2 175 3 190 4 205 5 225 6 245 7 255 8 275

It may be necessary to adjust the temperature to suit your individual requirements. Only experience will enable you to determine the correct setting for your personal requirements.

Accessories delivered with the appliance

The following accessories are supplied with your appliance.

• Grill Deflector

To be used when the grill is operation.

• Shelf for placing dishes on (roast, pastry

mounds) The dish should be put in the middle of the shelf to balance the weight.

• A roasting tray with roasting grid on it.

It is used to collect juice when cooking in it, place it on the shelf 2. If you do not use the roasting tray, remove it from the oven.

• Removable handles

In addition to the accessories supplied we recommend you only use heatproof dishes/pans (according to the manufacturer’s instructions).

Removable drawer

The removable drawer is located underneath the oven cavity.

During cooking the drawer may become hot if the oven is in use for a long period of time. Flammable materials such as oven gloves, tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not be stored in the drawer.

Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will also become hot, therefore care should be taken when removing these items from the drawer whilst the oven is in use or still hot.

To open

• Grasp the drawer from underneath and pull it

out as shown.

• To remove the drawer, pull it out to the stop,

then lift it up slowly and pull it out completely.

To replace the drawer follow the same procedure in reverse.

Hints and Tips

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However,

always stand back from the oven 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven. To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

Use any ovenproof cookware, which will withstand temperatures of 275°C.

Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed directly on the oven base.

Oven Cooking

• Turn off the oven 5 minutes before the end of

cooking time, and use residual heat to complete the cooking.

• The thickness, the material and the colour of the pan will influence the cooking results.

• When cooking, certain dishes increase in volume, ensure the pan is large enough.

• To prevent fat dripping when roasting use tall rim pans proportional to the item being roasted.

• Prick the skin of poultry and sausages with a fork before cooking to avoid spitting.

• Use heatproof glass dishes for soufflés.

The effects of dishes on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to the food inside them.

A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware

and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.

B Enamelled cast iron, anodised aluminium,

aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire. Before cleaning, ensure all control knobs are in the OFF position, and the appliance has cooled completely. Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the electricity supply.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.

Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT

be used as they may dull the surface finishes. A steam cleaner is not to be used. Harsh abrasives should also be avoided.

External cleaning

In the case of stainless steel parts, you may use commercially available stainless steel cleaners with care. These also provide a protective film against finger marks.

- Open the door completely.

- Lift the two locking plates on the hinge arms

to 170°;

- Partially close the door, to a 30

- Lift the door and pull out.

locking plates

angle

To prevent damaging or weakening the

door glass panels avoid the use of the following:

• Household detergent and bleaches

• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non

stick saucepans

• Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads

• Chemical oven pads or aerosols

• Rust removers

• Bath/Sink stain removers

Oven Cavity

The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm. Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.

Cleaning the oven door

For a more complete cleaning of the oven door, it is advisable to remove it in the following way;

Refit the door by reversing the operation described above.

DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed the glass panel may shatter. If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel shattering. Contact your local Service Centre who will be pleased to advise further.

Oven Shelves and shelf support

To clean the oven shelves, and shelf support soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.

Hob

After every use wipe with a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added, avoiding any leakage through the holes of the hob. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. To remove more stubborn stains, wet and leave to dissolve, do not scratch and avoid the use of abrasive or caustic products that could damage the enamel.

Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Wash the burners caps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well-moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove. After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Gas connection must be carried out according to the rules in force.

Your cooker is delivered adjusted for the kind of gas stated on the rating plate.

If the appliance is supplied with natural gas and the pressure for natural gas is 20mbar. The following methods of connection to the gas supply must be used:

Left Hand Connection (from front)

connection

of flexible

hose

Ensure that the rubber hose and power cord are not in contact with any part of the hatched area shown in the diagram and that the loop of the hose when connected is not in contact with the floor when the appliance is in position.

Right Hand Connection (from front)

Ensure that the rubber hose and power cord not in contact with any part of the hatched area shown in the diagram. It will be necessary to fit the maximum length hose when using this method.

Rigid Connection

Where it is not possible to make the connection using a rubber hose, a rigid pipe work connection must be used.

Recommendations when using an appliance flexible connector are as follows:

- For NATURAL the gas installation pipes to the termination point shall comply with:

Specification for installation of low-pressure gas pipe work of up to 20mm (R1) in domestic premises (2nd family gas) – BS 6891;

Replace the nozzles of the hob burners

Before any modifications or conversion to a kind of different gas, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the electricity supply and ensure that all control knobs are in the OFF position, and the appliance has cooled completely.

Hob burners

• Remove the pan supports;

• Remove the caps and the burner crowns;

• Using a No 7 socket spanner unscrew the

nozzles and replace them with those required

for the type of gas in use (see table no. 1). Reassemble the parts following the same procedure in reverse. These burners do not need any primary air regulation.

Adjustment of minimum level for the hob burners

The burner is correctly adjusted when the flame is stable silent and goes out without any noise. When changing the type of gas check that the minimum level is correct. The air admission is correct when the flame is about 4 mm in length. The top burners do not need adjustment of primary air. Check that, turning the knob quickly from the maximum position to the minimum one, the flame does not go out.
