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
Main oven - Do not use baking trays larger
than 30cm x 30cm (12” x 12”) as they will
restrict the circulation of heat and may affect
performance.
Grill and oven furniture
The following items of grill and oven furniture
have been supplied with the appliance.
1 grill pan
2 grill pan handles
1 grill pan grid
2 straight shelves
for oven cooking

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 a
battery.
• Push in and turn the control knob to the
• When the burner has lit release the
left to the highest setting. This is shown
by a large flame symbol. Press the
ignition button immediately.
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.
8
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
• Push in the control knob and turn to the
large flame symbol (highest setting).
Press the ignition button immediately.
• When the burner has lit release the
control and ignition button, adjust the
setting as required.
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
The grill pan requires assembly before use
(see Fig. 1).
Ensure the handle is correctly
located.
10
NOTE: Taptite screws are used to secure
the handle. These are thread forming
screws and sufficient pressure must be
applied to allow the screws to produce a
thread in the plunged holes.
The grill pan is designed so that you can pull
it forward but it will stay supported. To
remove the pan push it back as far as
possible and lift it off. Replace it in reverse
order.
Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the
pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill.
Hints and tips
• Most foods should be placed on the grid
in the grill pan to allow maximum
circulation of air to lift the food out of the
fats and juices.
• Adjust the grid to allow for different
thicknesses of food.
• Food should be thoroughly dried before
grilling to minimise splashing. Brush
lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil
or melted butter to keep them moist
during cooking.
• Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath
the grid when grilling meats.
• When toasting bread, use the grid in the
high position.
• Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before sealing steaks or
toasting. Adjust the heat setting as
necessary during cooking.
• The food should be turned over during
cooking as required.
