Lighting the appliance
The system works by means of an electric spark system. Details about
the plug are given on page 29.
Hotplate & Grill
To light
1. Lift up the lid. You cannot use the hotplate when the lid is down.
2. Push in the control knob and turn it to the large flame symbol
(highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When
the burner has lit release the button
3. Leave the grill door open when you are using the grill.
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 appliance 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 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
opened.
Please note: If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all
the hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts
have been replaced correctly.
See page 23 for more information.

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 grid 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
You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit.
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
GRILL
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
There is only one position for the
grill shelf.
Most food should be cooked on
the grid in the grill pan. You can turn
the grid 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.

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 browning food.
Positioning food on
the grid
Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and
muffins towards the centre of the grid.
Place food which needs a gentle heat,
such as tomatoes and mushrooms towards
the edge of the grid.
Arrange meat, meat products and fish to
suit their thickness and how you like them
cooked.

The grill pan and handle
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
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.
Note
If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered
from your Local Service Force Centre by quoting part number
311479800\6.

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 23 for more information.
Heat control
The hotplate control knobs turn
anticlockwise 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
Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you
are reaching across the hotplate.
Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable
than pans which are warped.
Do not use pans with very heavy handles which
cause the pan to tip.
Put pans on the centre of the burners.
Position pan handles so they cannot be
accidentally knocked.
Take extra care when you are 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 the pan to cool for 30 minutes.
If 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.

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

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

Baking trays and dishes
For your safety
Never place cooking dishes, trays and
so on over the oven burner. This will
damage the appliance as well as the
cookware and possibly the floor
covering underneath the appliance.
Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all
dishes and the sides of the oven so the
heat can circulate properly.
Do not push dishes too far back as
food will burn if it overhangs the burner
flames.
For the best results from the oven we recommend that you use a baking
tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which is larger
than this, you may need to turn it around during cooking.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking.
Roasting
For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to
prevent splashing.
It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when
roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended
cooktimes.
If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be
prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb).
When cooking large items such as turkeys, the use of foil may be
required to prevent the breast becoming dry before the rest of the bird is
fully cooked.

Condensation
Condensation may form on the appliance. This is quite normal and
nothing to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and
moisture are present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible
try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture, for example
casseroles, are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up
straight away.

Slow cooking
The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly
useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the
long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender.
You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn
the oven down to the slow cook setting. This makes sure that the
temperature of the food gets hot enough to start the food cooking.
Turn to S
Mark 6
Some foods such as pastry and biscuits are not suitable for slow
cooking because the temperature is too low.
Cover all food during cooking to prevent it from drying out. You can
uncover food for the last half hour if it is normally served golden brown.
Food preparation - slow cooking
Joints of meat and poultry
Do not cook meat joints over 2.7kg (6lb).
Do not cook poultry over 2kg (4lb 8oz).
Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or above.
Cook stuffing separately.
Cook for a minimum of 6 hours.
Joints of pork must only be cooked if you can ensure, by using a
o
meat thermometer, that an internal temperature of at least 88 C has
been reached.
For good air circulation always stand joints on a rack in the roasting
tin or casserole.
Thaw all frozen meat and poultry before cooking.
Prime cuts of meat do not benefit from slow cooking.
Remove excess fat and skin unless browned first.
Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.

Soups, casseroles and stews
Do not cook casseroles over 2.7kg (6lb).
Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook.
Cook in the middle of the oven or above.
Cover food with tight fitting lid or tin foil.
Vegetables
Cut into small pieces.
Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15
minutes before adding to any dish.
Place vegetables under meat in casseroles.
Cover food with tight fitting lid or tin foil.
Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.
Milk puddings
Cover the cereal with boiling water and allow to stand for 30 minutes.
Drain and make the pudding in the usual way.
Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.
General points for slow cooking
Frozen foods
Thaw thoroughly before cooking.
Thickening
Toss meat in flour for casseroles. Alternatively blend cornflour with
water and add at the end of cooking.
Flavouring
Flavours are retained because there is little evaporation. Adjust at the
end of the cooking time.
Liquid
Reduce normal liquid quantities slightly as there is little evaporation
during cooking time.
Milk and milk products, for example cream
Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling.
Reheating
Left over food should be cooled quickly and refrigerated.
Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food
conventionally or in a microwave. Only reheat food once.

Care and cleaning
For your safety
For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas
appliance clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuff could cause
a fire.
Try to mop up spills and splashes as soon as they happen. But
be careful as parts of the appliance will be hot.
Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or
soap powder except those recommended in this booklet.
Please note: If we recommend you
use hot soapy water we mean hot water
with washing up liquid in it and not any
other cleaning product.
If you own a dishwasher please
read the operating instructions for the
machine before you wash any part of
your appliance in it.
Clean your appliance regularly using a cloth that has been wrung out
in hot soapy water. Rinse and polish it dry using a soft cloth.
When you remove parts of your appliance for cleaning do not
plunge them into water whilst they are very hot as this may damage the
finish of the parts.
The hotplate
Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as 'Cif'. Take care not
to damage the spark electrodes. If the spark electrodes are damaged
the burners will not light.
You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns
to clean them. Again take care not to damage the spark electrodes.
If any food spills during cooking you can place the pan on another
burner to finish cooking. Then you can remove the dirty parts and clean
them before the spill 'burns on'.

Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water.
You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad
such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will
stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time.
Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the
pan supports. Clean the pan supports regularly to remove the marks
using a mild abrasive like 'Cif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn
marks you can use a soap-filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
After cleaning the appliace parts, dry
them thoroughly before you put them back.
When replacing hotplate burner parts
1. Crown to body (Do not try to force the
crown on to the body).
Make sure that the hole in the crown is
over the electrode. Check that the two
longer location pegs sit in the slots in the
body. When the crown is in this position
let it fall freely on to the body. Check that
the crown can be moved slightly from
side to side.
2. Cap to crown
Place cap centrally on the top of crown
(enamel side up). Move sideways and
front to back to check the cap is properly
fitted.
3. Check for ignition
If a burner will not light then you need to
check the crown and cap positions.
The grill and oven furniture
Clean the grill and oven furniture frequently using hot soapy water.
After use you can soak the grill pan for a few minutes and then clean
it using mild abrasives or a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
Clean the shelf, grill pan grid and handle using hot soapy water. Mild
abrasives can be used if necessary.

The oven
The sides and back of your oven are coated in a special material which
helps to keep itself clean.
Follow these simple rules to maintain the appearance of the special
finish.
Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over.
Do not put dishes too high in the oven. If
you do they may stick to the oven roof.
Cover your roasting tins with foil. This will
prevent fat splashing.
Use a roasting tin which is just large
enough for the meat and potatoes. This will
help to reduce fat splashing.
Dry any vegetables that you are going to
roast. If they are wet there will be more fat
splashing.

Oven cleaning cycle
You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good
condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to
follow the cycle.
If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should
follow the cleaning cycle once a week. If you do very little roasting you
will only need to follow the cleaning cycle every 2-3 weeks.
To carry out a cleaning cycle:
1. Remove the oven shelves.
2. Set the oven to mark 5 for at
least 30 minutes.
3. Turn the temperature up to
mark 7 for 2 hours or until the
oven is presentably clean.
Some staining will remain.
Do not use any cleaning
agents or scrapers on the
inside of the oven. Do not
wash the special finish.
You can replace the oven roof if you need to. You may order this from
your supplier. When you are ordering quote part number 359001018.
General
Clean the base of the oven, the oven shelves, the roasting tin and the
oven door while they are still slightly warm. This way you can easily
remove any splashes or spills. Wipe the oven base with a cloth that has
been wrung out in hot soapy water. You may use mild abrasives.

Cleaning between the outer and inner door
glass.
You can remove the glass from the oven and grill doors if you need to.
Note: For grill door it is important not to open the door when the glass is
removed because the door is lighter and it will spring shut.
To remove the outer glass
1 Open the door so you can get at the two cross head screws on the
top of the door.
Note: Open the grill door slightly to access screws.
2 Loosen these two screws using a pozidrive screwdriver.
3 You should hold the door glass securely in place with one hand,
whilst removing the screws completely, with the other hand. If you do
not do this, the door glass could fall forward.
4 Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door glass towards you.
Lift it slightly to disengage the locators at the bottom of the door.
5 Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water and mild
abrasives such as 'Cif'. DO NOT try to clean the aluminium foil which
is inside the door. The foil is there to keep the door cool, if it is
damaged it will not work.
6 Replace the glass by holding it in both hands and gently placing the
locators into the holes of the brackets at the bottom of the door, and
make sure the screw location holes line up.
7 Hold the glass in place with one hand and replace the cross head
screws into the location holes, with the other hand.
8 Tighten the screws using a pozidrive screwdriver. Close the door.

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 appliance 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 appliance and tell your
installer.

What is wrong and why?
We strongly recommend that you carry out the following checks on your
appliance before calling a Service Engineer.
Problem
The oven, grill or hotplate will not light.
Check
If only the hotplate burners will not light make sure that the burner
parts have been replaced correctly. See instructions on page 23.
If you cannot hear any sparking when you press the ignition button
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,
renew the fuse in the plug. Use a 3 amp fuse. If the fuse 'blows'
again there is a fault on the appliance. Do not use a fuse with a
rating higher than 3 amps. Do not carry out other electrical work.
Unplug the appliance and tell your installer. If the appliance will not
light because there is an electrical power failure such as a power cut,
you cannot use the Main Oven, burners may be lit with a match.
Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can do
this by making sure that other gas appliances such as your central
heating or gas fire are working.
Problem
Food is cooking too quickly or too slowly.
Check
Check that you are using the recommended gas marks and shelf
positions. See pages 15 - 17. Be prepared to adjust the gas mark up
or down to get the results you want.
Problem
The oven is not cooking evenly.
Check
Check that the appliance is installed properly and is level.
Check that the main oven roof is pushed fully back into position.
Check that you are using the recommended size baking trays. See
