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 trivet 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.
Heat control
The grill control has two heat settings.
The control knob turns to the right 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
You can put the grill shelf in either of the two
positions.
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.

General
The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the
main oven. It is important that you do not swap them over. Only use the
shelf with the solid metal plate underneath it in the grill/second oven.
The grill pan handle can be
removed. To put the handle on to
the pan you should put the chrome
bracket over the cut out in the pan
and then slide the handle on to the
left as far as the bump on the pan.
When you are not using the grill you should remove the handle and
store the pan on the shelf in the grill. Turn the grill burner off before you
store the pan. Remember that the pan will get hot when you are using
the main oven.
You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are
using the main oven.
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.
Putting 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 hotplate
Heat control
The hotplate control knobs turn to the left 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.
7
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.

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
5
6
Try cooking more than one
vegetable in the same pan, for
example potatoes and carrots.
Cut vegetables into smaller
pieces. This way they will cook
more quickly.
A pressure cooker will save time
and energy.

The ovens
Before you use the oven you should wipe it
out with a damp cloth to remove any dust.
Heat zones
Main Oven - 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 requiring 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 could
remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to
the higher shelf to finish cooking.
Second Oven - You should turn food round during the cooking time.
Preheating
You do not need to preheat the main or second 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 are using the second oven to
cook or reheat convenience food you should preheat the oven to gas
mark 8.
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 main oven and any of two
positions in the second oven. Positions are
counted from the top downwards.
The shelf in the grill/second oven is different
from the shelves in the main oven. Only use the
shelf with the solid metal plate underneath it in
the grill/second oven. The plate may glow red
when you are using the oven. This will not
affect the cooking performance.

Most second oven cooking should be carried
out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2.
However, when cooking a small joint or a deep
cake you can use the shelf on the base of the
second oven to allow enough air to circulate
around the food.
Shelf on base
Baking trays and dishes
For your safety
Never place cooking dishes, trays
and so on over the oven burners.
This will damage the cooker as
well as the ovenware and possibly
the floor covering underneath the
cooker.
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 your main 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.
The size of tray which should be used in the second oven should
measure no more than 310mm x 230mm (12" x 9"). Position the longest
side parallel with the door.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking. Turn all food round in the second
oven.
Condensation
Condensation may form on the cooker. 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.

Soups, casseroles and stews
l Do not cook casseroles over 3 kg (6lb).
l Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook.
l Cook in the middle of the oven or above.
Vegetables
l Cut into small pieces.
l Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15
minutes before adding to any dish.
l Place vegetables under meat in casseroles.
l Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.
Milk puddings
l Cover the cereal with boiling water and leave it to stand for 30
minutes.
l Drain and make the pudding in the usual way.
l 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. Blend cornflour with water and add it
at the end of cooking.
Flavouring
Flavours are held in the food because there is little evaporation. Adjust
flavouring at the end of the cooking time.
Liquid
Use slightly less liquid as there is little evaporation during cooking.
Milk and milk products, for example cream
Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling.
Reheating
Cool left over food quickly and then put it in the fridge.
Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food in the
usual way or in a microwave.
Only reheat food once.

Care and cleaning
For your safety
For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas cooker
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 cooker.
Clean your cooker 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 cooker 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 'Jif'. 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 do occur 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'.

You can wash the removable parts in very hot soapy water. You may
use mild abrasives. Make sure that the electrode and the hole and slots
in the crown are not blocked with food or cleaning materials.
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 'Jif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn
marks you can use a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. After cleaning the
cooker 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 centrally over the
electrode. Check that the two longer
location pegs sit in the slots in the body.
When the crown is in the 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 second oven
Clean the grill and oven frequently using hot soapy water.
After use you can soak the pan for a few minutes and then clean it
using mild abrasives or a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
Clean the shelf using hot soapy water. Mild abrasives can be used
if necessary. The heat in the oven will change the colour of the solid
plate on the shelf. You must not remove the solid plate from the shelf.
You can soak the shelf for a few minutes in hot soapy water to make
cleaning easier.

The main oven
The top, 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.
Follow the oven cleaning cycle
regularly.

Oven cleaning cycle
Please note: The oven cleaning cycle can only be used in the main
oven.
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.
General
Clean the base of the oven, the oven shelves and the oven doors while
they are still slightly warm. This way you can easily remove any
splashes and spills. Wipe the 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 main oven door if you need to.
To remove the outer glass
1 Open the oven door so you can get at the two cross head screws on
the top of the door.
2 Loosen these 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 'Jif'. 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.

Installing the cooker
For your safety
This cooker must be installed and serviced by a competent
person as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use)
regulations current editions.
It is important that the cooker is suitable for your gas supply.
Your installer should check the data badge.
Ensure that a stability bracket is fitted.
Location
For your safety
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.
For further details see page 36.

General information
For your safety
Do not block any of the cooker vents.
Never line any part of the cooker with aluminium foil.
Don't let items which can catch fire or electric mains leads
such as kettle flexes trail over any part of the cooker.
Moving your cooker
You may damage some soft or badly fitted floor coverings when you
move the cooker. The floor covering under the cooker should be
securely fixed so it does not ruck up when you move the cooker across
it. Alternatively you could remove the floor covering.
To move the cooker open the grill door. Raise the cooker off its
front feet by lifting from inside the grill. Pull the cooker forward. When
you replace the cooker push it back to the stop and make sure there is
the same gap at each rear corner.
The battery
The battery for the ignition will
usually last for many months. If the
ignition system doesn't work you
probably need to replace the
battery.
The battery is at the base of the
cooker on the left-hand side of the
front. You can see it through the
slots between the oven and the
plinth.
When you need to replace the
battery, open the main oven door,
turn the battery holder clockwise
about its pivot point. The battery
you need is AA size.
When you fit the new battery, make sure the positive end (marked with
a + sign) is next to the (+) sign on the battery holder. Return the battery
holder to its original position by turning it anti-clockwise.
You can light the burners with a match until you have time to change the
battery.
