Before using the appliance

Rating plate

This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable). The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.

Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.

Preparing to use your appliance

Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth and hot soapy water and wash the furniture before use. We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum temperature, to burn off any residue from their surfaces. Accessible parts may become hotter than in normal use. Children should be kept away. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The vents allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the appliance when opening the door(s) 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.

Cookware

The hob

Using the hob

The gas hob has different burner sizes to suit different types of cooking: To ensure maximum burner efficiency only use pots and pans with flat bases appropriate to the burner size used. Larger burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such as chips. Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday cooking. Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering foods 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").

Ensure the pan supports are

correctly fitted before using the hob.

To light the hob burners

The hob ignition works by means of an electric spark system.

• Push in and turn the control knob to the

control and ignition button, adjust the setting as required.

Warning: If the ignition button is

not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread.

To turn off any burner

1. Turn the control knob to the off position. This is shown by a large dot.

When lighting any burner, ensure

that it is lit before you leave the appliance.

When turning off a burner, ensure

the flame has gone out before leaving the appliance.

In the event of the burner flames

being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least 1 min.

Things to note

If you are having any difficulty lighting a hob burner turn all the hob controls off and make sure the burner parts have been replaced correctly.

Hints and tips

• Do not overfill pans or they will boil over.

• Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.

• Do not leave accidental spillage on the hob or removable parts. The spillage should be wiped up and the parts washed and carefully dried as soon as the hob, pan supports and burner parts are cool enough to touch.

• A flat based Wok will stand stable on the pan supports. If you use a round Wok with a collar support, the collar must be the open wirework type otherwise the performance of the burner will be affected.

Take care to avoid burns and

scalds when reaching across the hotplate.

Take extra care when deep fat

frying, do not cover the pan with a lid. 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 to cool for 30 minutes.

Place pans on the centre of the

burners.

Position pans so the handles

cannot be accidentally knocked or overhang the appliance.

Lift pans on and off the pan

supports.

Do not slide them across the hob.

The grill

CAUTION – Accessible parts may

be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.

When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the burner heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance.

Using the grill

• Fully open the door. Push 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 control and ignition button, adjust the setting as required.

The grill door must be left open when grilling.

Things to note

• Some smoke from fat splashes may be

evident as the grill cleans itself.

Never cover the grill pan or grid

with foil as this can lead to grill fires.

The grill pan and handle

(LPG models only)

The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.

TOP OVEN/GRILL

To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan.

Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan.

Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to remove the grill pan handle during grilling.

Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill.

To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill pan.

The grill pan and handle

(NG models only)

The grill pan has a removable handle. To insert the handle, press the button on the

handle with the thumb and pivot slightly upwards inserting the lip into the widest part of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left, lower into position and release the button.

Ensure the handle is properly located.

To remove the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards and towards the right to remove from the bracket.

Protect your hands when removing the grill pan handle.

Always remove the grill pan handle during grilling.

To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking.
