INTRODUCTION  
WARNING: THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED  
RATING PLATE  
The cable should be routed away from potentially hot  
areas marked by X in the diagram below.  
Record the model, product and serial numbers on the  
back cover from the rating plate. This is situated on  
the lower front frame of the cooker and can be seen  
upon opening the top oven door.  
REAR VIEW  
The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated  
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker is  
given on the rating plate.  
To move the cooker, open the fan oven door, and lift  
the cooker by holding inside the top of the  
compartment.  
Do not remove the rating plate from the cooker  
as this may invalidate the guarantee.  
INSTALLATION  
If your cooker has been damaged in transit, contact  
your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install  
it.  
Your cooker left the factory fully packaged to protect  
it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging  
and damage has occurred the manufacturer cannot  
accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for  
advice.  
This is a type Y cooker which means it is  
free-standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one  
or both sides. It may also be fitted in a corner setting.  
Ensure that the cooker is standing level.  
Once the packaging has been removed the cooker  
should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack  
barrow or any other aid to lift the cooker as damage  
may occur.  
Side walls which are above hob level should be  
protected by heat resistant non-combustible material  
and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob  
side.  
Connection to the electricity supply must be carried  
out by a qualified electrician/competent person.  
A nominal air gap of 2mm all around the cooker is  
required to enable the cooker to be moved into  
position.  
The electrical connection should be made using a  
double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at  
least 3mm contact separation. The cable must have  
conductors of sufficiently high cross-sectional area to  
prevent overheating and deterioration.  
Always ensure an air gap is maintained at hotplate  
level. Tiles or other forms of deep wall covering  
should not obscure this gap.  
The recommended cross-section area is six square  
millimetres (6.00mm²).

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS  
Note: Vapours from the oven vents may in time  
cause discoloration of wallcoverings behind the  
cooker. For ease of cleaning it may be preferable to  
tile behind the cooker.  
The cooling fan operates immediately when the grill  
or top oven is switched on. It may run on after the  
controls are switched off until the appliance has  
cooled. If an automatic programme has been set the  
cooling fan does not switch on until the cooktime  
begins.  
Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a  
minimum of 685mm above the hob.  
Note: The action of the cooling fan will depend on  
how long the top oven or grill have been used and at  
what temperature. It may not run on where the grill or  
top oven has been used for a short time or at low  
temperatures. Do not switch the cooker off at its  
power point until the cooling fan has cooled the  
cooker down.  
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS

installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the cooker to  
accommodate uneven floors.  
The neons also indicate when the set temperature  
has been reached. They will turn on and off during  
use to show that the temperature is being  
maintained.  
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR  
COOKER  
If the neons do not operate as the instructions  
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.  
Return all controls to zero and re-set following the  
instructions for the required setting.  
We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 -  
15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from  
their surfaces.  
When the oven has been set for automatic cooking  
the neon will remain unlit until the cooktime begins.  
The procedure should be repeated with the grill for  
approximately 5 - 10 minutes.  
During this period an odour may be emitted, it is  
therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.  
COOKWARE  
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed  
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back  
of the oven.  
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM  
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a  
boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of  
this steam to escape. However, always stand back  
from the cooker when opening the oven door to allow  
any build up of steam or heat to release.  
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm  
(12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat  
and may affect performance.  
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 appliance.  
To prevent discoloration, regularly wipe away  
condensation and also soilage from surfaces  
including the vent at the rear of the hob. See note at  
the top of this page.  
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the  
cooker should be securely fixed to the wall.

In the following pages we explain how to set the  
controls. Read through them a few times until you  
are familiar with the procedure. We have supplied a  
plastic card as a quick reference when setting the  
timer.  
If the oven is switched off on the wall, or there is  
a loss of power, the clock will stop and you will not  
be able to use the ovens. When you first switch the  
electricity supply on, the timer display will flash.

TO SET THE TIME OF DAY  
Turn the selector knob to 'Manual' then turn to  
'Clock'.  
Set the correct time by turning and holding the  
setting knob clockwise. Adjust the time by turning the  
setting knob in either direction.  
Turn the selector knob back to 'Manual'.  
TO USE THE MINUTE MINDER  
Turn the selector knob to 'Timer'. Turn the setting  
knob clockwise until the display shows the time you  
want. The bell symbol (  
) will be showing and this  
will stay lit up during the time. Our diagram shows  
the timer set to 5 minutes.  
If you change your mind and want to cancel the time  
you have set, simply turn the setting knob  
anticlockwise. Then turn the selector to 'Manual'.  
When you are using the minute minder you can  
make the clock show the time of day by turning the  
selector knob to 'Manual'. The bell symbol will stay  
on to remind you that the minute minder is set. At the  
end of the timed period an alarm will sound and the  
bell symbol will go out.  
Switch off the alarm by turning the selector knob  
to 'Clock'. Then turn to 'Manual' and the time of day  
will show in the display.  
Note:  
You can use the minute minder when an automatic  
sequence has been set, as long as you remember  
the following point.

Turn the selector knob to 'Auto' as soon as you  
have entered the timed period into the display.  
AUTOMATIC CONTROL  
The automatic control can be used to control either  
oven but you can only use the control for both ovens  
at the same time if the cooking time is the same.  
When you use the automatic controls for the first  
time it's probably best to choose a time when you are  
at home. That way you can check to make sure  
you've set everything correctly and you'll feel much  
more confident when you are away from home in the  
future.

THE CERAMIC HOB  
CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE COOKER IF THE CERAMIC GLASS IS DAMAGED. IF A FAULT OR CRACK  
BECOMES VISIBLE DURING COOKING, DISCONNECT THE COOKER IMMEDIATELY FROM THE  
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND CONTACT YOUR LOCAL SERVICE FORCE CENTRE.  
USING THE HOB  
NOTE  
To operate the dual hotplate turn the control  
knob clockwise for the full area, or  
anticlockwise for the centre section.  
Occasionally the heated areas may be seen to  
switch ON and OFF when higher heat settings are  
being used. This is due to a safety device which  
prevents the glass from overheating. Some switching  
ON and OFF when cooking at high temperatures,  
e.g. deep fat frying is quite normal, causes no  
damage to the hob and little delay in cooking times.  
The inner section is very economical when  
cooking with small diameter saucepans.  
For single hotplates, turn the control knob in  
either direction to vary the heat setting. The  
highest number represents the hottest setting  
and the lowest the coolest setting. Choose a  
setting appropriate to the quantity and type of  
food to be cooked.  
Excessive switching may however be caused by the  
use of an unsuitable saucepan or a saucepan which  
is smaller than the heated area. If excessive  
switching occurs, discontinue use of the saucepan.  
This model has the added feature of Rapid  
Power Zone hotplates which react more  
quickly than the other ceramic hotplates and  
are easily identified by their instant red glow.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the  
heated areas. This will reduce the risk of  
scratches and metal marks from saucepans with  
aluminium bases. Metal marks can be easily  
cleaned off providing they are not allowed to burn  
on.  
RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS  
For speed and economy only good quality  
saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are  
recommended. The saucepan base should be  
approximately the same size as the cooking area, a  
base diameter of up to 225mm (9") may be used on  
a 180mm (7") heated area.  
Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan  
manufacturer, particularly those relating to  
recommended heat settings.  
Avoid using thin badly dented or distorted  
saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not  
be used.  
Ensure that new saucepans are well scrubbed to  
remove edges and take off any deposits left from  
manufacture.  
Pressure cookers, preserving pans etc., should  
comply with the recommendations given above.  
Traditional round bottomed Woks must not be used  
even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases  
are available and do comply with the above  
recommendations.

turned.  
Once cooked, drain the food on  
absorbent paper.  
Never use an asbestos mat.  
5. Double frying chips  
Never leave the hotplates ON when not  
covered with a saucepan.  
Double frying will ensure good chips. First fry the  
chips for a few minutes at 170°C/340°F to seal  
the outside. Remove the chips from the oil.  
Increase the temperature of the oil to  
190°C/375°F to finish cooking and brown the  
chips.  
Ensure that hob and saucepans are clean and  
dry before the start of cooking to reduce  
cleaning.  
Follow the cleaning instructions very closely to  
keep the hob looking like new.  
Chips may be kept for several hours after the first  
frying before finishing off with the second frying.  
If spillage occurs with sugar solutions, e.g.  
jams and syrups, it must be wiped from the  
hob before it sets and becomes hard  
otherwise damage to the hob will occur.

DEEP FAT FRYING  
SPECIAL FRYING NOTE:  
PRESERVING  
For safety purposes when deep fat frying, fill the pan  
one-third full of oil, DO NOT cover the pan with a lid  
and DO NOT leave the pan unattended. In the  
unfortunate event of a fire, switch the cooker OFF at  
the electricity supply and cover the pan with a lid or  
damp cloth to assist in smothering the flames.  
1. DO NOT use a pan that overlaps the perimeter of  
the hob trim.  
2. To allow for a full rolling boil, the pan should be  
no more than one third full when all the  
ingredients have been added. It is better to use  
two pans rather than overfill one, or use half  
quantities.  
3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before  
using.  
4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however  
granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally  
good flavour.  
DO NOT use water on the fire. Leave the pan to cool  
for at least 30 minutes before moving it.  
DO NOT leave the fat or oil in the frying pan on the  
hob to store it in case the hob is inadvertently  
switched ON.  
1. Preparing the food  
5. Crystallization may be caused if sugar is not  
completely dissolved before bringing jam to the  
boil. Over boiling will affect the flavour, setting  
properties and colour of the jam.  
Seal the food by coating with flour, egg and  
breadcrumbs or batter. Do not use a basket with  
batter coated foods as they will stick.  
2. Amount of oil  
6. To test jam for setting:  
If a jam thermometer is available, boil jam to  
104°C. Marmalade should be boiled to 106°C.  
For safety purposes fill the pan only one-third full  
of oil.  
3. Testing the temperature of the oil  
If a thermometer is not available, remove pan  
from heat, place sample of jam on a cold dish  
and cool quickly (i.e. in a freezer or frozen food  
storage compartment of a refrigerator). When  
cold, it will crinkle and hold the mark of a finger  
run through it, if it is at setting point.  
It is advisable to use a thermometer to test the  
temperature of the oil. Alternatively, drop a small  
cube of bread into the oil which should brown in  
just under a minute if the oil is at the correct  
temperature of 190°C/375°F.  
7. The scum should be removed as soon as  
possible from the surface of the preserve after  
setting point has been reached. Marmalade  
should be allowed to cool before potting to  
prevent the peel rising.  
4. Cooking the food  
Lower the food gently into the oil. Do not add too  
much food at once or the temperature of the oil  
will be reduced and may result in soggy, greasy  
food.

THE GRILL  
USES OF THE DUAL GRILL  
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE  
KEPT AWAY.  
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes the  
centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food.  
SELECTING THE GRILL  
To operate the grill turn the grill control  
clockwise for full area grilling and  
anti-clockwise for centre section grilling only.  
The highest number represents the hottest  
setting and the lowest the coolest setting.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
The cooling fan will operate in conjunction with  
the grill. For more details on the operation of the  
cooling fan see page 9.  
Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not  
necessary to remove the grill pan handle during  
NOTE  
grilling.  
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING  
GRILLING.  
If the grill door is accidentally closed during grilling a  
safety device incorporated in the cooker will cut out  
the grill.  
The top oven cannot be operated when the grill is in  
use. If the grill and top oven controls are selected at  
the same time, only the top oven will operate.  
Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is  
positioned centrally beneath the grill.  
The inner grill element may appear to glow slightly  
brighter than the outer element. This is quite normal.  
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.  
To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right  
and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill  
pan.  
Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump  
on the grill pan.

THE TOP OVEN  
USES OF THE TOP OVEN  
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is  
designed for cooking on one level and for small quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook  
fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.  
The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a  
temperature setting of 80° - 100°C on the top oven control dial.  
SELECTING THE TOP OVEN  
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF

in use. If the grill and top oven controls are  
selected at the same time, only the top oven will  
operate.  
The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods  
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the  
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and  
safety stop mechanism will be affected.  
2. The top oven indicator neon will glow until the  
oven has reached the desired temperature and  
then go out. It will turn ON and OFF showing that  
the oven temperature is being maintained.  
18  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
DO NOT place dishes or baking trays directly  
onto the oven base as it becomes very hot and  
damage may occur.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Most cooking should be carried out using an  
oven shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners.  
Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be  
cooked in the main oven. However, they may be  
cooked on a flat shelf placed on the base of the  
top oven provided there is sufficient room for air  
circulation around the food.  
The material and finish of the baking trays and  
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of  
the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick  
utensils increase base browning. Shiny  
aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat  
away and give less base browning.  
Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on  
the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base  
and to help reduce cleaning.  
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as a baking  
tray as this will increase base browning of the  
food.  
Because of the smaller cooking space, lower  
temperatures and shorter cooking times are  
sometimes required. Be guided by the  
recommendations on page 22.  
For economy leave the door open for the  
shortest possible time, particularly when placing  
food into a pre-heated oven.  
There should always be at least 2.5cm (1")  
between the top of the food and the element.  
This gives best cooking results and allows room  
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc.  
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread etc.,  
place the tins or baking trays centrally on the  
shelf directly below the element.  
19  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
THE MAIN FAN OVEN  
USES OF THE FAN OVEN  
The oven is heated by an element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven  
and the element heats the air which circulates in the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of fan  
oven cooking are.  
PREHEATING  
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without  
preheating however, you may find you need to add an extra 5 - 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.  
For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the  
oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.  
COOKING TEMPERATURES  
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures  
recommended in the chart on page 22. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20° - 25°C for your own recipes  
using a conventional oven.  
BATCH BAKING  
The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.  
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN  
Turn the main oven temperature control to the  
required setting.  
TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES  
The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods  
uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the  
back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and  
safety stop mechanism will be affected.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
1. The main oven indicator neon will glow until the  
oven has reached the desired temperature and  
then go out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically  
during cooking showing that the temperature is  
being maintained.  
2. The interior oven light will come ON when the  
main oven control is turned.

HINTS AND TIPS  
Arrange the shelves in the required positions  
before switching the oven ON. Shelves are  
numbered from the bottom upwards.  
When cooking more than one dish in the fan  
oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves  
rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf,  
this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the  
best cooking results.  
When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria  
sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be  
cooked in the same time.  
It is recommended that when baking larger  
quantities, the shelf positions should be evenly  
spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight  
increase in cooking time may be necessary.  
DO NOT place dishes or baking trays directly on  
the oven base as it interferes with the oven air  
circulation and can lead to base burning: use the  
lower shelf position. However, non critical dishes  
may be cooked on the oven base when more  
space is required.  
The use of excessively high temperatures can  
cause uneven browning. It may be necessary to  
reduce temperatures slightly. Refer to the  
recommendations given in the oven cooking  
chart see page 22.

The roasting temperatures and times given in the chart should be adequate for most joints, but slight adjustments  
may be required to allow for personal requirements and the shape and texture of the meat. However, lower  
temperatures and longer cooking times are recommended for less tender cuts or larger joints.  
Wrap joints in foil if preferred, for extra browning uncover for the last 30 - 60 min. cooking time.

DEFROSTING  
Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed  
or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be  
thawed in 1 - 2 hours.  
USES OF DEFROST FEATURE  
This main oven function defrosts most foods faster  
than more conventional methods. It is particularly  
suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be  
served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered  
with icings or frostings,cheesecakes,biscuits,scones  
etc.  
A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in  
approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as soon  
as possible during the thawing process.  
Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be  
thawed using the defrost function.  
ALL JOINTS OF MEAT AND POULTRY MUST BE  
THAWED THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING.  
It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly  
in the fridge. However, this process can be  
accelerated by using the defrost function.  
ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY  
AFTER THAWING.  
SELECTING DEFROST  
Turn the main oven temperature control to the  
defrost setting.  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Place the frozen food in a single layer where  
possible and turn it over half way through the  
defrosting process.  
When defrost is selected, the oven indicator neon  
may come ON. It will stay on until the oven  
reaches room temperature and then go OFF.  
It may turn ON and OFF periodically during  
defrosting to maintain steady room temperature.  
THINGS TO NOTE  
Care must always be taken when handling foods in  
the home. Always follow the basic rules of food  
hygiene to prevent bacterial and microbial growth  
and cross contamination when defrosting, cooking,  
cooling and freezing foods.  
The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by  
room temperature. On warm days defrosting will  
be faster than on cooler days.  
DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it  
is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store  
cooked food in the fridge.

CARE AND CLEANING  
BEFORE CLEANING THE COOKER, ALWAYS  
ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE  
COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE  
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.  
If Hob Brite is unavailable, one or more of the  
cleaning agents below may be used temporarily:  
a) Jif Cream Cleaner  
b) Baking Soda  
TO REMOVE MORE STUBBORN MARKS  
CLEANING MATERIALS  
1. Bar-Keepers Friend may be used to clean off  
more stubborn stains or to remove discolourations.  
Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker,  
check that they are suitable and that their use is  
recommended by the manufacturer.  
It may be necessary to rub the marks hard for  
several minutes.  
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as  
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives  
should also be avoided. Multi-surface anti-bacterial  
cleaning products should not be used on the ceramic  
hob or on the surrounding trims.  
2. Use a plastic pad specially for non-stick saucepans with  
Bar-Keepers Friend for removal of more stubborn  
soilage.  
CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB  
Make sure the ceramic glass is cool before cleaning.  
It is important to clean the ceramic hob daily to  
prevent soilage being burnt on.  
Take care to avoid the hob trims when cleaning the  
ceramic glass as they may be damaged by the  
cleaning agents recommended.  
TO REMOVE BURNT ON SOILAGE  
We strongly recommend the use of a ceramic hob  
scraper (incorporating a single edge razor blade) to  
remove spillage on the hob, in particular sugar  
solutions, which if not removed can cause permanent  
damage.  
DAILY CLEANING  
Use the recommended Hob Brite Cleaner daily. If  
soilage is not allowed to burn on it will be much  
easier to clean off.  
1. Make sure the ceramic glass is cool.  
2. Use a ceramic hob scraper with care at an angle  
of 30° to remove as much soilage as possible.  
1. Apply a small amount of Hob Brite in the centre  
of each area to be cleaned.  
3. Use Bar-Keepers Friend or Hob Brite to finish off  
as directed above.  
2. Dampen a clean paper towel or a plastic pad  
made specially for non-stick saucepans and rub  
vigorously until all marks are removed. This may  
take a few minutes.  
TO REMOVE DISCOLOURATIONS OR  
WHITE AND SILVER MARKS  
3. Wipe off residues of cleaner with another damp  
paper towel and polish dry with a soft cloth.  
These marks sometimes give the impression of  
being in or underneath the hob glass. They can  
almost always be removed provided they have not  
become excessively burnt on. Follow the instructions  
under 'To Remove more Stubborn Marks' above.  
If this is unsuccessful, make up a paste of one part  
water to three parts Cream of Tartar and leave on  
the discoloured areas overnight. The marks should  
be easily removable the next day provided they have  
not been excessively burnt on. The paste should be  
thoroughly washed off afterwards.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE  
COOKER  
HINTS AND TIPS  
TO REDUCE HOB SOILAGE:  
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials eg Hob  
Brite, Brillo pads or scourers on painted or printed  
finishes as damage may occur. Regularly wipe over  
the control panel, oven doors and cooker sides using  
a soft cloth and liquid detergent.  
Make sure the bottom of the saucepan and the  
cooking area are clean and dry before cooking  
begins.  
Ensure saucepans are large enough to accommodate  
food to avoid boil overs.  
If possible, wipe up spills and splatters as they  
occur, but take care to avoid steam burns.  
Avoid using a dishcloth or sponge to clean the  
hob. These may leave a layer of soiled detergent  
on the hob surface which will burn and discolour  
the next time the hob is used.  
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY OF THE  
CONTROL KNOBS FROM THE PANEL AS THIS  
Avoid the use of:  
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND IS  
HAZARD.  
A
SAFETY  
Household detergents and bleaches.  
Impregnated plastic or nylon pads that are  
not described as suitable for non-stick  
saucepans.  
Brillo pads, Ajax pads, steel wool pads.  
Chemical oven cleaners, e.g. aerosols and  
oven pads.  
Rust stain, bath and sink stain removers.  
CLEANING THE GRILL DEFLECTOR,  
GRILL PAN, GRILL PAN GRID AND OVEN  
SHELVES  
Any of the above products may cause  
damage to the hob.  
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can  
be washed in the dishwasher.  
It is dangerous to mix different cleaning products.  
The chemicals in them may react with each other  
with hazardous results.  
The grill pan, oven shelves and grill deflector may be  
cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad.  
The grill pan grid should be cleaned using hot soapy  
water. Soaking first in soapy water will make cleaning  
easier.  
SOILAGE FROM SUGAR SOLUTIONS MUST  
BE REMOVED FROM THE HOB BEFORE THE  
SYRUP HAS SET OTHERWISE DAMAGE TO  
THE HOB SURFACE WILL OCCUR.  
Avoid placing plastic items, aluminium foil or  
dishes on the hot surface as this will cause  
damage to the hob.  
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN AND  
GRILL COMPARTMENTS  
The sides and back of the oven compartments are  
coated with a special Stayclean coating.  
The Stayclean surfaces inside the ovens should not  
be cleaned manually. See Page 27 'Care of  
Stayclean Surfaces'.  
26  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
It is NOT necessary to add water to the meat tin  
when roasting. The water and the fat juices from  
the joint create excessive splattering during  
cooking - even at normal temperatures, as well  
as causing condensation.  
The vitreous enamel grill compartment base and the  
fan oven base can be cleaned using normal oven  
cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with care. Ensure  
that the manufacturers instructions are followed and  
that all parts are well rinsed afterwards.  
Covering joints during cooking will also prevent  
splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing  
the covering for the last 20-30 minutes will allow  
extra browning if required. Some large joints and  
turkeys especially benefit by this method of  
cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before  
the outside is overbrowned.  
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean  
surfaces and must not come into contact with  
the elements or the door seal as this may cause  
damage.  
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES  
CLEANING THE DOOR GLASS  
Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats  
when the oven temperature is raised to around  
220°C.  
To prevent damaging or weakening the  
door glass panels avoid the use of the  
following:  
It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two  
per week to ensure continued good performance  
from the Stayclean finish.  
Household detergents and bleaches  
Impregnated pads unsuitable for  
non-stick saucepans  
Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads  
Chemical oven pads or aerosols  
Rust removers  
HINTS AND TIPS  
Manual cleaning of Stayclean surfaces is not  
recommended. Damage will occur if oven sprays  
or abrasives of any kind are used.  
Bath/Sink stain removers  
Slight discolouration and polishing of the  
Stayclean surface may occur in time. This DOES  
NOT affect the Stayclean properties in any way.  
CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND  
INNER DOOR GLASS  
The outer door glass is removable for cleaning.  
A good time to allow the oven to run on is after  
the weekly roast. After removing the roast, turn  
the oven up to 220°C and allow to run for an hour  
or so. It is important NOT to allow a build-up of  
soilage as this can prevent the Stayclean from  
working.  
TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS  
1. Open the oven door slightly to gain access to the  
two cross head screws on the top of the oven  
door.  
2. Loosen the two screws using a Pozidrive  
screwdriver.  
Follow the recommendations below to keep oven  
soilage to a minimum.  
3. Hold the door glass securely in place with one  
hand before removing the screws completely with  
the other hand.  
Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher  
temperatures during roasting will increase  
soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an  
increased length of time, you will save energy  
and often the joint is more tender.  
4. Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door  
glass towards you, lift slightly to disengage the  
locators from the two bottom brackets.  
Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting  
meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat  
before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during  
roasting will increase splashing and soilage.

REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT BULB  
The type of bulb required is a 300C 25 watt small  
Edison Screw. Part number 572 491 5431-00/1.  
(Available through Tricity Bendix service centres).  
CAUTION: Disconnect the appliance from the  
electricity supply before replacing the bulb.  
Open door and remove the shelves to enable easy  
access to the oven light assembly. Insert a flat blade  
screwdriver between the oven side and the glass  
which covers the bulb.  
5. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy  
water or Hob Brite may be used. DO NOT try to  
clean the aluminium foil which is inside the door.  
The foil is there to help keep the door cool, if it is  
damaged it will not work. Ensure that all parts  
are well rinsed and thoroughly dry before  
attempting to replace the outer door.  
Support the glass with your hand and prise out  
sufficiently to release the glass cover. Unscrew the  
bulb in an anticlockwise direction until it is possible to  
remove the bulb with ease.  
Fit the new bulb by turning in a clockwise direction  
until it is secure. Ensuring the indent to the flange is  
pointing to the rear of the oven, replace the glass by  
pushing it firmly into the hole to cover the bulb  
assembly.  
TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS  
1. Holding the oven glass with both hands, gently  
place the locators into the holes of the brackets  
at the bottom of the oven door.  
Replace the shelves. Restore the electricity supply  
and adjust the time of day and clock as necessary.  
2. Push the top of the oven glass towards the oven  
door, ensuring the screw location holes line up.  
3. Hold the glass in place with one hand and insert  
the cross head screws into the location holes  
with the other hand. Give the screws one turn to  
ensure the glass is secure.  
4. Tighten the screws positively with a Pozidrive  
screwdriver before closing the oven door.  
Do not attempt to use the oven without the glass  
being in place.  
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or  
has deep scratches the glass will be  
weakened and must be replaced to prevent  
the possibility of the panel shattering.  
Please contact your local Service Centre  
who will be pleased to advise further.  
TO CLEAN THE INNER GLASS DOOR  
PANELS  
Clean the inner door glass panels using a soft cloth  
and hot water to which a little washing up has been  
added. If the inner panel is heavily soiled, Hob Brite  
may be used. Do not use abrasive cleaning materials  
on the door glass. Ensure that all parts are well  
rinsed and thoroughly dried before attempting to  
replace the glass.
