Main Oven

Your built in cooker comprises of a gas oven and grill in the top compartment. The top oven is
convenient and economical for mid-week use because of its size.
The main oven is the larger of the two ovens. It is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of
food. In addition, the Slowcook feature allows you to cook a range of foods over a long period of time at
a low temperature.
The Main oven can be automatically controlled by the electronic timer.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

Your cooker has a cooling fan fitted behind the
controls to prevent them from overheating.
The cooling fan will come on immediately when
the top oven or grill is switched on and after a
short time when the main oven is in use.
The cooling fan may run on after the ovens or
grill are turned off for a period of time to cool
the cooker down. It may continue to switch on
and off until the cooker is cool.

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

NOTE

The action of the cooling fan will depend on
how long the ovens or grill have been used and
at what temperature. It may not run on where
the grill or oven has only been used for a short
time.

Do not stand too close to the grill or
oven when in use as warm air will
exhaust from the grill cavity and oven
vents.

LOCATION

All gas ovens require adequate
ventilation. The room the oven is fitted in
must have a good air supply that meets
the standard BS 5440 Part 2 (current
edition). Your installer will tell you if you
are not sure.
The oven may be placed in a kitchen,
kitchen/diner or bedsit but not in a
bathroom or shower room. It should not
be installed in a bedsit smaller than 20m
L.P.G. cookers MUST NOT be installed
below ground level, i.e. in a basement.

The use of a gas cooking appliance results in
the production of heat and moisture in the room
in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is
well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes
open or install a mechanical ventilation device
(mechanical extractor hood).

.

Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may
call for additional ventilation, for example
opening of a window, or more effective
ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.

BEFORE USING THE COOKER

RATING PLATE

Record the model, serial and product numbers
of your cooker on the back page of this
instruction book for future reference. You can
find these numbers on the rating plate on the
front frame of the cooker upon opening the top
oven door.
The cooker must be protected by a suitably
rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the
cooker is given on the rating plate.

CONNECTING TO THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

This cooker must be earthed and

protected by a 3 amp fuse.

The plug supplied with the oven can be fitted
directly to a suitable three pin earthed socket.
If you have to change the fuse replace it with a
3 amp fuse which has been ASTA approved to
BS 1362.
Do not use the plug until you have put the fuse
cover back on. If you cut the plug off dispose of
it safely as it will be a shock hazard if it is
inserted into a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the
house.
If the ignition system doesn't work there may be
a fault with the electrical supply. First, check the
socket by trying out another piece of electrical
equipment in it, if that works correctly renew the
fuse in the plug.
If the fuse keeps failing there is a fault in the
oven which must be put right. Do not use a fuse
with a rating higher than 3 amps. Do not carry
out other electrical work. Unplug the oven and
tell your installer.

WHEN FIRST SWITCHING ON

The timer must be set to manual operation
before the main oven can be operated. This
must be done whenever the cooker is switched
off at the wall or when there has been a power
failure. For instructions on how to set the timer
see page 11.
The Top Oven and the Grill are not controlled
by the electronic timer.

8

PREPARING TO USE YOUR
COOKER

Wipe over the grill compartment and oven base
with a soft cloth and hot soapy water and wash
the grill and oven furniture before use.
The grill and ovens should be heated without
food to burn off any residue from the grill and
oven surfaces. To do this run the ovens at Gas
Mark 7 for approximately 30 minutes.
The procedure should be repeated with the grill
for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
During this period an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a
window for ventilation.

CONDENSATION AND STEAM

When food is heated it produces steam in the
same way as a boiling kettle does. The ovens
are vented to allow some of this steam to
escape. However, always stand back from the
cooker when opening the oven doors 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 cooker, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is
quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the
cooker.
To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly
wipe away condensation and any soilage from
the cooker surfaces.

COOKWARE

Baking trays, dishes etc., should not be placed
over the oven burner. This will damage the
oven as well as the ovenware.
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.
Advice on the effect of different materials and
finishes of bakeware is given in 'Hints and Tips'
in the appropriate oven section.
If using a baking tray larger than 30cm x 25cm
(12" x 9") in the top oven you may need to turn
it round during cooking.

THE TRIVET

When roasting we recommend that you use the
trivet in the meat tin. Fat and meat juices will
drain into the meat tin below and can be used
to make gravy. The trivet also prevents
splashes of fat from soiling the oven interior.

Note. The meat tin should not be placed on a
heated hotplate as this may cause the enamel
to crack.

GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE

The following items of oven furniture have been
supplied with the cooker.

1 grill pan

1 grill pan handle

1 grill pan grid
