anticlockwise to maximum position. At the same time
push the electric ignition button which is marked with a
little spark. Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is quite normal
for the spark generator to be activated
automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only
use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used (see table).

Do not close the lid whilst the burners are lit as
this will cause the lid to become extremely HOT
and could cause a burn if touched. The lid MUST
be raised when any part of the appliance is in
use.

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond
the bottom of the pan, causing the handle to
overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the
flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as
the overheated splashes could easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Parkinson Cowan
Service Centre.

Before the First Use of the Cooker
Remove all packaging, both inside and
outside the cooker, before using it.
Before first use, the oven should be heated without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is quite normal.
1. Ignite the gas oven burner (see page 8) and
F
set the oven function control knob to MAX.
2. Open a window for ventilation.
3. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately
45 minutes.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Do not clean the oven while it is still warm.
6
Using the Oven
Always cook with the oven door closed.
Stand clear when opening the drop down
oven door. Do not allow it to fall open -
support the door using the door handle, until
it is fully open.

The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied
with two shelves.
The shelf positions are counted from the bottom
of the oven as shown in the diagram.
It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned as shown in the diagram.
Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.
Hints and Tips
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand back from
the oven when opening the oven door 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer is located underneath the oven
cavity.
•
Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperaturesof250°C.
•
Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of
the oven, or placed on the oven base.
During cooking the storage drawer may become
hot if the oven is on high for a long period of time,
therefore flammable materials such as oven
gloves, tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not
be stored in the drawer.
•
Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm (12
in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.
Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will
also become hot, therefore care should be taken
when removing these items from the drawer
whilst the oven is in use or still hot.
The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
7
Using the Gas oven
Before using your oven
Switch the oven to MAX. and leave it to run empty for
about 30 minutes to remove any unpleasant smell.
During cooking, the door should be opened as little as
possible to avoid heat loss, and excessive fuel
consumption.
To ignite the oven gas burner:
1. Open the oven door.
F 2. Hold a flame to the right-hand side hole (see
fig.)
3. Press the oven control knob and turn it anti-
clockwise until the maximum temperature is
reached.
4. Firmly press the oven control knob for
approximately 5 seconds, until the safety valve
automatically keeps the oven burner lit.
5. Release the control knob and then gently
close the oven door. To adjust the
temperature, turn the knob to the required
setting after a few minutes.
If the oven burner accidentally goes out,
turn the oven knob to "l" and wait at least
1 minute before trying to light the burner
again.
Grill burner ignition
1. Open the oven door.
2. Hold a flame to the gas grill burner holes (see fig.).
3. Press the oven control knob and turn it to
.
4. Firmly press the oven control knob for approximately
5 seconds, until the safety valve automatically keeps
the grill burner lit.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the
electricity supply.
The Hob Top
The Pan Support
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage
can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.
The pan support is dishwasher proof. If washing it by
hand,takecarewhendryingitastheenamellingprocess
occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove
stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well

Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is
recommendedthatacleaningproductsuchasHobBrite
or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the Oven
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire,
especially in the grill pan.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check
that they are suitable and that their use is recommended
by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door
seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little washing up liquid has been added.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass
panels are warm. If this precaution is not
observed the glass panel may shatter.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door
glass panels avoid the use of the following:
•
•
Householddetergentandbleaches

This cooker is designed to be installed with an appliance
flexible connection. Connection is made to the RC 1/2
(1/2" B.S.P.) threaded entry pipe located just below the
hotplate level on the rear right-hand side of the cooker.
Check for gas soundness after connecting the gas
supply.
If the cooker has to be installed with a flexible supply
pipe, it is necessary that a stability device is fitted.
(See Safety Requirements: Page 16).
If a stability bracket is to be fitted by the installer, these
instructions should be read in conjunction with the leaflet
packed with the stability bracket.
The gas bayonet connector must be fitted in the shaded
area indicated in the diagram. Take into account that it
must be possible to pull the cooker forward sufficiently.
The hose must not get caught on the stability bracket.
Place the cooker in its intended position and level
cooker.
Note:
Mark off 245mm (11 1/2") from the right hand side of the
cooker as shown, this is the centre line of the bracket
fixing.
For certain types of gas bayonet connection used, it
may not be possible for the appliance to be pushed fully
back to the wall stops.
Draw a line 100mm (4") from the front edge of the
levelling feet (see Fig. 2) and remove cooker from its
position. Mark off 480mm (19") back from this line on
the centre line of the bracket to locate the front edge of
the lower bracket.
Important:
Flexible tubing MUST comply with BS.669 Current
Edition.
Fix lower bracket (with two fixing holes) to the floor, then
measure height from floor level to engagement edge on
back of cooker, dimension 'A' of Fig. 2.
Assemble upper bracket to lower bracket so that
underside of bracket is dimension 'A' +3mm (1/8") above
floor level. Re-position cooker and check that top
bracket engages into cooker back to a depth of 75mm
(3"), as shown in Fig. 2.

Electrical connections
Any electrical work required to install this
Permanent Connection
cooker should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person, in accordance
with the current regulations.
In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary
that you install a double pole switch between the cooker
and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap
of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type
suitable for the required load in compliance with the
current electric regulations.
THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should these
safety measures not be observed.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth
cable at any point.
This cooker is designed to be connected to a 230-
240V 50Hz AC electrical supply.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply
voltage is the same as that indicated on the cooker rating
plate. The rating plate is located on the oven frame.
Ensure that the cooker supply cord does not
come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.
The cooker is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord
incorporating a 13amp plug fitted. In the event of having
to change the fuse, a 13ampASTAapproved (BS 1362)
fuse must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the
wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth

Blue
Brown
- Neutral
-Live
— Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with
F
the letter 'E' or the earth symbol
green and yellow.
or coloured
— Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'N'
or coloured black.
— Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in
the plug which is marked with the letter 'L' or
coloured red.
FO 0390
NOTE: The earth wire should be about 2 cm. longer
than the live and neutral wires.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands
of wire present and the cord clamp must be secure over
the outer sheath.
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket
is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure
that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
