Lighting the cooker
The ignition system works by means of a battery. Details on how to replace the battery are given on page 25.
Hotplate
To light
1Lift up the lid. You cannot use the hotplate when the lid is down.
2Push in the control knob and turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button.
Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread.
For your safety
If you close the lid of the cooker while any of the hotplate burners are lit the gas will go out. This is because it would be dangerous if the burners stayed on when the lid was closed.
Always use the control to turn off a burner. Do not use the lid cut-off device. This will only cut off the gas when the lid is closed.

The grill
The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the trivet to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly.
You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food.
For your safety
After replacing the pan, pull it out to make sure it has fitted back properly.
Caution
Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young children should be kept away.
Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill fires.
Heat control
The grill control has two heat settings.
The control knob turns to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. Use the high setting for fast cooking such as toast. Use the low setting to cook thicker food such as chicken after you have browned it on the high setting.
Cooking positions
When using the grill, the shelf must be placed in the lower of the two positions.
Most food should be cooked on the trivet in the grill pan. You can turn the trivet over to suit different thicknesses of food.
You can place some dishes straight on to the grill shelf. This is useful when you are browning the top of food such as cauliflower cheese.

General
Natural Gas Models only
The grill pan handle can be removed. To put the handle on to the pan you should put the chrome bracket over the cut out in the pan and then slide the handle on to the left as far as the bump on the pan.
When you are not using the grill you should remove the handle and store the pan on the shelf in the grill. Turn the grill burner off before you store the pan. Remember that the pan will get hot when you are using the oven.
L.P. Gas Models only
When storing the grill pan the shelf needs to be placed in the top position.
Store the grill pan on the base of the grill compartment. Turn the grill burner off before you store the pan. Remember that the pan will get hot when you are using the oven.
You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are using the oven.
Preheating
You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or when browning food.
Positioning food on the trivet
Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and muffins towards the centre of the trivet.
Place food which needs a more gentle heat, such as tomatoes and mushrooms towards the edge of the trivet.
Arrange meat, meat products and fish to suit their thickness and how you like them cooked.

The hotplate
You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 21 for more information.
Heat control
FRONT LEFT
The hotplate control knobs turn to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. You can adjust the heat by turning the control between the highest and lowest settings. These are shown as a large and a small flame symbol.
Burner sizes
The hotplate has three burner sizes to suit different types of cooking:
Largest burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such as chips.
Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday cooking.
Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering food such as soups and stews.
The largest pan which you should use on any burner is 230mm (9"). The base of the smallest pan should not measure less than 100mm (4").

For your safety
1Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate.
2Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped.
3Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.
Put pans on the centre of the burners.
5Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally knocked.
6Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do not
cover the pan with a lid.
FRONT LEFT
Do not leave a pan unattended. If the pan catches fire, leave it where it is and turn off all controls.
Place a damp cloth or a fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames.
Never put water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for 30 minutes.
7If you are using a Wok we recommend it has a flat base as it will stand stable on the pan supports. If you use a round based Wok with a collar support, the collar must be of the open wire work type. A closed collar will affect the performance of the burner. Before you use the Wok make sure that the collar is stable on the pan supports. Always follow the instructions that come with the Wok.
8Do not use the lid as a work surface or chopping board. This could damage the glass and reduce its strength.

Helpful hints
1Keep flames under the base of the pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas.
2Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans.
3Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen.
4Try cooking more than one vegetable in the same pan, for example potatoes and carrots.
5Cut vegetables into smaller pieces. This way they will cook more quickly.
6A pressure cooker will save time and energy.

The oven
Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust.
Heat zones
There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make use of these heat zones when you are cooking foods that need different temperatures all at the same time.
If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking. Or you can remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking.
Preheating
You do not need to preheat the oven when casseroling and so on. Preheat the oven for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food
such as Yorkshire puddings, soufflés and yeast mixtures.
When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the instructions on the packing.
When you need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for 20 minutes.
Oven shelves
You can slot the oven shelves into any of five positions. Positions are counted from the top downwards.
For safety the shelf will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift it out. To put the shelf into a different position keep the front edge raised, slot the shelf on to the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in.
