Before using the appliance

Rating plate

• This is usually situated on the front frame of
the appliance and can be seen upon opening
either the main or top oven 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 using hot soapy water. 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.

The cooling fan for the controls

• The cooling fan comes on immediately when

the grill/top oven is switched on and after a
short time when the main oven is in use. It
may run on after the controls are switched
off until the appliance has cooled.

• During the initial period the cooling fan may

turn on and off, this is quite normal.

WARNING!

Always allow the cooling fan to cool the
appliance down before switching off at
the wall prior to carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance work.

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 foodstuff from
surfaces.

• For your safety wall coverings at the rear of
the appliance should be securely fixed to the
wall.

Cookware

• 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.

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.

• The hob surface should be allowed to cool
before closing the lid.

WARNING!

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

• 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.

.

WARNING!

Take care to avoid burns and scalds when
reaching across the hob.

WARNING!

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.

IMPORTANT!

Do not allow hot pans or baking trays to
touch the controls as damage may occur.

WARNING!

Do not use the lid as a work surface or
chopping board. This could damage the
glass and reduce its strength.

WARNING!

If you close the lid of the appliance whilst
any of the hob burners are lit the gas will go
out. This is because it would be dangerous if
the burners stayed in when the lid was shut.

WARNING!

Always use the contro knob to turn off a
burner. Do not use the lid as a cut off device.
This will only cut off the gas when the lid is
closed. The gas will flow again when the lid
is next opened.
