LOCATION  
SPACE FOR FIXING  
GB  
The cooker may be located in a kitchen, kitchen/diner  
or a bed-sitting room, but not in a room containing a  
bath or shower. The cooker must not be installed in a  
bed-sitting room of less than 20m3.  
The cooker can be close fitted below hotplate level.  
This requires a minimum distance of 600mm between  
cupboard units of hotplate height.  
When installing next to a tall cupboard, partition or wall,  
for a minimum distance of 400mm above hotplate level,  
allow a side clearance of at least 65mm. The diagram  
below illustrates the minimum clearance between the  
cooker and adjacent walls, cupboards etc.  
When adjusted for use on Butane (G30) or Propane  
(G31), the cooker must not be installed in a room or  
internal space below ground level, e.g. in a basement.  
PROVISION FOR VENTILATION  
The room containing the cooker should have an air  
supply in accordance with BS 5440: Part 2.  
The wall behind the cooker, 50mm below and 450mm  
above, and the width of the cooker, must be a non-  
combustible material such as ceramic wall tiles.  
If the cooker is to be fitted close to a corner on the left  
hand side, ensure that there is a clearance of at least  
50mm to allow the main oven door to open fully for  
when removing oven shelves.  
The room must have an opening window or equivalent;  
some rooms may also require a permanent vent. If the  
room has a volume between 5 and 10m3, it will require  
an air vent of 50cm2 effective area unless it has a  
door which opens directly to outside. If the room has  
a volume of less than 5m3, it will require an air vent of  
100cm2 effective area. If there are other fuel burning  
appliances in the same room, BS 5440: Part 2 should  
be consulted to determine air vent requirements.

CONVERSION FOR USE ON BUTANE  
(G30) OR PROPANE (G31)  
Each burner requires the injector to be replaced and  
bypass screws adjusted or replaced as follows:  
CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY  
1. Remove the loose hotplate burner parts.  
2. Using a 7mm socket, replace the hotplate injectors  
as appropriate (see table on previous page).  
3. Re-position the loose burner parts.  
4. Remove the enamelled baffle at the front of the grill  
(2 screws).  
5. Remove the screw on the right hand side of the  
burner and gently slide the burner off the injector.  
6. Using a 7mm socket, replace the grill injector as  
appropriate (see table on previous page).  
7. Re-assemble the burner and baffle.  
8. Inside the top oven, remove the central screw se-  
curing the burner retainer. Slide the retainer to the  
right slightly and lift away.  
9. Lift the burner assembly and place on the floor of  
the oven to the right of the burner opening.  
10.Using a 7mm socket, replace the oven injector as  
appropriate (see table on previous page).  
11.Re-assemble the oven burner and retainer.  
12.Replace the main oven injector following the same  
procedure as for the top oven.  
Connection to the cooker should be made with an  
approved appliance flexible connection to BS 669. A  
length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length of  
hose chosen should be such that when the cooker is in  
situ, the hose does not touch the floor.  
Those cookers converted to use on LPG should be  
connected with a hose suitable for LPG and capable of  
withstanding a pressure of 50 mbar.  
An adaptor backplate should be fitted within the  
shaded area shown, to allow the cooker to be pushed  
fully to the wall and to ensure that the flexible hose is  
only likely to come into contact with areas at the rear  
of the cooker that do not exceed a temperature rise of  
70°C.  
13.Carefully pull off the control knobs and timer but-  
tons.  
14.Remove the 2 screws securing the underside of  
the control panel. Slide the control panel to the left  
slightly to remove.  
15.Remove the 6 screws securing the timer mounting  
panel. Without completely removing it, manoeuvre  
the timer mounting panel to gain access to the  
thermostat bypass screws.  
16.Using a narrow flat bladed screwdriver rotate the  
bypass screws fully clockwise. The main oven  
thermostat bypass screw is located on the body  
of the thermostat below the spindle, the top oven  
thermostat bypass screw is located on the body of  
the thermostat to the right of the spindle and the  
hotplate tap bypass screws are located down the  
centre of the spindle.  
17.Re-assemble the control panel parts ensuring that  
when the connections are made to the ignition  
switch, the wires are above the switch rather than  
below.  
18.Secure the self-adhesive LPG conversion label over  
the gas details on the data badge.

Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it  
should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug as  
outlined below.  
NOTE: The removed plug cannot be used for any other  
appliance and should therefore be properly disposed  
of and not left where children might find it and plug  
it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent  
danger.  
marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol  
coloured green or green and yellow.  
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected  
to the terminal which is marked with the N or coloured  
black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected  
to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or  
coloured red.  
When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire  
are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to  
tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug.  
As the appliance must be earthed, do not use 2-pin  
sockets outlets, if you are in doubt, consult a  
qualified electrician.  
or  
IF THE FITTED PLUG IS REMOVED  
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected  
as below to a three pin plug of not less than 13 amp  
capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be  
fitted with a fuse which is approved to B.S. 1362.  
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead fitted to  
this appliance are coloured in accordance with the  
following code:  
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it  
is essential that this operation be carried out by a  
qualified electrician and should only be replaced with  
a flexible cord of the same size i.e. 1.0mm2 cross  
sectional area PVC cable, available from our parts  
department (see Back Cover).  
IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED  
In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied an  
ASTA approved fuse to BS1362 must be fitted.  
NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing  
the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug  
must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has  
been obtained and fitted. A new fuse cover can be  
obtained from your local Electricity Board. The colour  
of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the  
coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug.  
Make sure that the cable does not become trapped  
when pushing the cooker into position.

Hotplate  
The hotplate lid is fitted with a safety device which cuts  
off the gas supply to the hotplate burners unless the lid  
is fully open. Do not use the safety device as a means  
of controlling the hotplate burners.

GB  
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR DEEP FAT FRYING  
1. Never fill chip pans more than one third full with oil  
or fat.  
2. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating  
or cooling period.  
3. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.  
4. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lo-  
wer it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in  
particular will cause frothing and spitting if added  
too quickly.  
The hotplate has two high speed burners and two  
simmering burners which will accommodate pans  
between 100mm (4”) and 240mm (91/2”) diameter. All  
pans should be positioned centrally over the burners.  
TO USE THE HOTPLATE  
1. Remove any items or spillage from the top of the  
lid and then raise it to its fully open position.  
2. Push in and turn the control knob of the chosen  
burner anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol.  
Continue to press the ignition button until the sparks  
light the gas.  
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free  
from streaks of oil or fat.  
HOW TO DEAL WITH A FAT FIRE  
1. Do not move the pan.  
For the models with the electronic ignition button (  
), press the button and then turn the knob.  
2. Turn off the hotplate burners.  
3. Smother the flames with a fire blanket or damp  
cloth to extinguish the fire. Do not use water or a  
fire extinguisher as the force of it may spread the  
burning fat or oil over the edge of the pan.  
4. Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving  
it.  
3. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the  
heat input. Only turn the control knob between the  
large flame symbol and the small flame symbol  
when adjusting the setting.  
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to  
the symbol O.  
DO NOT use the hotplate unless all pan supports  
are in position.  
DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be un-  
stable.

HOB GAS BURNER  
SAFETY DEVICE  
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignitor for lighting the  
gas. To ensure rapid lighting of the burners every time  
they are used, the ignitors must be kept clean and dry.  
Remove any food spillage or cleaning materials from  
the ignitor using a small nylon brush such as a tooth  
brush. Access to the ignitor can be achieved by lifting  
off the loose burner parts carefully when the burners  
are cool.

has been lighted to allow the gas to pass until the  
safety thermocouple has heated.  
When the hotplate burner bodies and caps are  
removed for cleaning, be careful not to drop any food  
particles or cleaning materials into the burner bases, to  
avoid the possibility of blocking the gas jets.  
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit  
may appear on the top edge of the pan support  
fingers. See ‚Care and Cleaning’ section for cleaning

), press the button and then turn the knob.  
GB  
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.  
The grill is fitted with a safety device that will cut off the  
gas supply to the burner if the flame is extinguished  
for any reason. Each time the grill is used, the safety  
device has to be activated by pushing and holding in  
the control knob for 3 seconds after the gas has lit.  
5. Slide the grill pan along the shelf towards the rear  
of the grill compartment until it stops.  
6. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the  
heat input. Only turn the control knob between the  
large flame symbol and the small flame symbol  
when adjusting the setting.  
7. To turn off, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to  
the symbol O.  
Grill Pan Handle  
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to  
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle  
securely before use:  
1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external  
‘hooks’ embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)  
2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits  
exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2) and  
holds the pan from the bottom.  
The grill cannot be used at the same time as the top  
oven. If for any reason the grill burner has not lit after  
15 seconds, turn the control knob to the off position,  
leave the grill door open and wait for at least one  
minute before attempting to light the burner again. An  
odour may be noticed when first using the grill this  
should cease after a short period of use.  
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.  
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The best  
results are achieved by placing the oven rack on the  
uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into the grill  
pan will make the collection of grease particles more  
efficient and prevent the formation of smoke.  
DO NOT use the grill with the door closed.  
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium  
foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat  
and create a fire hazard.  
RELIGHTING THE BURNER  
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally  
extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not  
attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.  
Grilling can be started from cold but for best results  
preheat for approximately two minutes. Most cooking  
is done with the heat on full, but it may be desirable to  
reduce it for thicker pieces of meat or for keeping food  
warm.

3. Place the shelf in the appropriate position.  
4. Push in and turn the control knob clockwise to the  
large flame symbol. Continue to push in the control  
knob for a further 3 seconds after the gas has lit,  
to allow time for the safety device to operate. If  
the burner extinguishes when the control knob is  
released, repeat the procedure ensuring the control  
knob is fully depressed and allowing more time for  
the safety device to operate.  
NOTE: Strong detergents  
used in dishwashers may  
damage the grill pan grid finish; clean in soapy water  
as described in CARE AND CLEANING section.  
Always ensure that the grill pan handle is correctly  
fitted to the grill pan.

Main Oven  
COLD START COOKING  
The main oven is fitted with a safety device that will  
cut off the gas supply to the burner if the flame has  
been extinguished for any reason. Each time the main  
oven is used, the safety device has to be activated by  
pushing and holding in the control knob for 3 seconds  
after the gas has lit.  
The oven has different heat zones - the thermostat  
settings refer to the temperature on the middle shelf  
position; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is  
cooler. Two shelves provide five possible cooking  
levels enabling full use of the different temperatures  
inside the oven.  
Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent it from being  
pulled out too far when attending to food. Shelves are  
removed from the oven by pulling them out to the stop  
and then lifting them at the front to withdraw.  
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used  
is 325mm x 350mm (13” x 14”).  
GB  
Anything requiring long slow cooking such as  
casseroles and rich fruit cakes can be put into a cold  
oven. Satisfactory results can also be obtained with  
creamed mixture, rich pastries or yeast mixtures, but  
for perfection we recommend preheating the oven  
for about 15 minutes at the gas mark you require for  
cooking.  
ROASTING OF LARGE POULTRY  
The maximum weight of poultry that can be  
accommodated is 11.5kg (25 lbs) of suitable shape.  
It is important to check that the bird DOES NOT  
overhang the burner at the back of the oven.  
STORAGE AND RE-HEATING OF FOOD  
It is vitally important to strictly adhere to the basic  
principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the  
possibility of bacterial growth.  
1. If food is to be frozen or not served immediately,  
cool it in a clean container as quickly as possible.  
2. Completely thaw frozen food in the refrigerator  
before re-heating.  
3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the  
hotplate or in a hot oven, Mk. 6, and then serve  
immediately.  
TO USE THE MAIN OVEN  
1. Place the oven shelves in the appropriate positions  
(refer to cooking charts).  
2. Push in and turn the control knob fully anti-  
clockwise. Continue to push in the control knob  
for a further 3 seconds after the gas has lit to allow  
time for the safety device to operate. If the burner  
extinguishes when the control knob is released,  
repeat the procedure ensuring the control knob  
is fully depressed and allowing more time for the  
safety device to operate.  
4. Only re-heat food once.  
‚COOK CHILL’ DISHES  
These should always be placed in a pre-heated oven  
ideally on the first or second shelf position. Follow the  
packet instructions for cooking time.  
For the models with the electronic ignition button (  
), press the button and then turn the knob.  
ALUMINIUM FOIL  
If using Aluminium Foil:  
1. Remember that it is important to increase the coo-  
king time by one third.  
2. Never allow the foil to touch the sides of the oven.  
3. Never cover the oven interior with foil.  
4. Never cover the oven shelves with foil.  
3. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required  
setting (refer to cooking chart).  
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise the  
the symbol O.  
If for any reason the oven burner has not lit after 15  
seconds, turn the control knob to the OFF position.  
Leave the main oven door open and wait for at least 1  
minute before attempting to light the burner again.  
Never place dishes over the burner.  
The equivalent degrees Celsius (sometimes called  
Centigrade) and degrees Fahrenheit are shown below

Care and Cleaning  
temperatures are not used regularly then it may be  
necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run  
the oven at maximum temperature for at least two  
hours, from time to time. The ‚Stay Clean’ panel can  
be washed in warm soapy water followed by rinsing in  
clear water. Dry well with a soft cloth.  
Grill  
GB  
Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support,  
it is best to wash these items immediately after use to  
prevent stains from being burnt on when used again.  
Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine steel wool  
soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill  
runners and the floor of the compartment. Wipe over  
the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a  
dry cloth.  
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh  
abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind.  
Oven Lamp Replacement  
Control Panel  
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols,  
scouring pads or abrasive powder for cleaning the  
plastic knobs as damage will occur.  
Open the oven door and remove the rod shelves.  
Using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers grip the  
light glass dome, unscrew anti-clockwise and lift.  
Reach into the aperture with fingers, and unscrew the  
lamp anticlockwise. Fit replacement lamp (25W 300°C  
rated SES), refit dome.  
Decorative Trims  
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly  
to prevent any build up of soiling. The recommended  
method of cleaning is to wipe over the trims with a soft  
cloth wrung out in warm water or mild non-abrasive  
cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner on a small area of  
trim which is not noticeable in normal use). Then, after  
wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a  
soft clean cloth.  
! To avoid electric shock please ensure that the  
electricity supply to the appliance is switched off and  
the appliance is fully cold, before removing the lamp  
lens.  
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on  
the appliance.  
! Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge  
and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry  
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive  
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could  
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.  
! The accessories can be washed like everyday  
crockery (even in your dishwasher).  
Ovens  
Remove the rod shelves and grill pan. Use a fine steel  
wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the rod  
shelves, grill pan and the floor of the oven. Clean the  
glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-  
abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a  
soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or sharp  
metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and  
cause the glass to crack.  
! Switch off the electricity supply and allow to cool  
before cleaning the cooker.  
! Clean the cooker regularly and wipe up spills soon  
after they occur to prevent them from becoming  
burnt on. Never use biological washing powder,  
caustic cleaners, harsh abrasives, scouring pads,  
steam cleaners, aerosol cleaners or oven chemical  
cleaners of any kind.  
! If it is necessary to remove the cooker for  
cleaning, ensure that it is cool and beware that it is  
heavy (approximately 70 kg 155 lbs).  
! To move the cooker forward, open the top oven/grill  
door and with both hands positioned under the roof  
of the compartment, lift and pull forward. Replace by  
pushing the cooker backwards.  
Oven Shelf Supports  
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher  
safe.  
To remove hold the support at the front, lift and pull  
away from the oven side, this can then be cleaned in a  
sink or a dishwasher. When removed it allows access  
to the oven side, which can be cleaned with warm  
soapy water.  
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear  
fixing hole and push in the front leg.  
! Check that the cooker is level. Take care not to  
damage any floor coverings.  
‚Stay Clean’ Panel*  
‚Stay Clean’ panels are covered with a special enamel  
which absorbs cooking soils. At higher temperatures  
the soiling is slowly destroyed. In most cases normal  
cooking at higher temperatures will permit this cleaning  
to take place automatically. However, if higher cooking

wrung out in warm soapy water, then after wiping with  
a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean  
cloth. Ensure that glass doors are not subjected to any  
sharp mechanical blows.  
SIDE OPENING DOORS  
Cleaning the door glass is the same as the drop

of the inner glass when removing and refitting.  
Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort  
the door seals. Do not lift the door seal from the oven  
chassis, if necessary remove the seal by carefully  
unhooking the corner clips.  
Take care that the rating label edges are not lifted  
during cleaning, and furthermore that the lettering is  
not blurred or removed.  
Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) –  
open the door fully and  
carefully slide the inner  
glass towards you,  
taking care not to allow  
the glass to fall.  
When refitting the glass make sure it is fitted correctly  
i.e. reflective face is fitted the right way round.  
The glass panel may now be washed at the sink.  
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel  
wool soap pad. Ensure the glass panel is not subjected  
to any sharp mechanical blows. Take particular care  
not to damage the inner surface which is coated with a  
heat reflective layer. After cleaning, rinse and dry with  
a soft cloth. For slight soiling the inner glass panel may  
be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from  
the door.
