INTRODUCTION
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE 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 of this instruction book, from the rating
plate. This is situated on the lower front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the oven
door.
To move the cooker, open the main oven door and
lift the cooker by holding inside the top of the
compartment.
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is
given on the rating plate.
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 appliance 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.
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.
Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a
minimum of 685mm above the hob.
Six square millimetres (6.00mm²) is the recommended
cross-section area.
It is important to ensure that the appliance is level
after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front
of the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.

REVERSIBLE MAIN OVEN DOOR
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
The following items of oven furniture have been
supplied with the cooker:
If you require the oven door to be hinged on the
opposite side, you will need to contact a qualified
Service Engineer. See page 32 for your nearest
Service Centre. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will be
made.
1 grill pan
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR
COOKER
1 grill pan handle
1 grill pan grid
1 grill deflector
1 meat tin
We suggest that you run all the elements for a short
period to burn off any residue from their surfaces.
To do this, run the ovens at 220°C for approximately
45 minutes. The procedure should be repeated with
the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
During this period an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window
for ventilation.
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 appliance 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 appliance, 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.
1 trivet
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
1 cranked shelf for
grilling and top oven
cooking only
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
PUSH TO TURN CONTROLS
2 straight shelves
for main oven cooking
The control knobs must be pushed in towards the
panel before they can be turned or adjusted.
Scuffing of the Stayclean oven lining by the oven
furniture pack may occur during transit.
These marks will disappear after the oven elements
have been burnt off for the first time.

THE CERAMIC HOB
CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE IF THE CERAMIC GLASS IS DAMAGED. IF A FAULT OR CRACK
BECOMES VISIBLE DURING COOKING, DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE IMMEDIATELY FROM THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND CONTACT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTRE.
NOTE
To operate the dual hotplate, push in and turn the
control knob clockwise for the full area or
anti-clockwise 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 represents 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 two Reflex
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.
The hob indicator neon will glow when using any
of the hotplates.
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 (9in) may be used on
a 180mm (7in) 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.
15

To prolong the life of the hotplates:-
Never use utensils with a skirt, e.g. a bucket
Never use an asbestos mat
Turn the food if necessary; doughnuts float to the
surface so will not brown on the upperside if not
turned. Once cooked, drain the food on
absorbent paper.
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.

SPECIAL FRYING NOTE:
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 OFF at the
electricity supply and cover the pan with a lid or
damp cloth to assist in smothering the flames.
PRESERVING
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.
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.
3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before
using.
1. Preparing the food
4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however
granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally
good flavour.
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.
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.
2. Amount of oil
For safety purposes fill the pan only one-third full
of oil.
6. To test jam for setting:
3. Testing the temperature of the oil
If a jam thermometer is available, boil jam to
104°C. Marmalade should be boiled to 106°C.
If a jam 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 ready.
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.
4. Cooking the food
7. The scum should be removed as soon as
possible after setting, but marmalade should be
allowed to cool before potting to prevent the peel
rising.
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 DUAL GRILL
USES OF THE GRILL
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD
BE KEPT AWAY.
c
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 dual grill, push in and 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.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
To insert the handle, press the button on the handle
with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards
inserting the lip into widest part of the bracket. Move
the handle towards the left, lower into position and
release the button.
The grill indicator neon will glow.
THINGS TO NOTE
Ensure the handle is positively located.
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING
GRILLING.
When removing the handle, press the button on the
handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly
upwards and towards the right to remove from the
bracket.
The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the grill
compartment, but a straight shelf from the main oven
may be used to provide alternative positions.
Ensure your hand is protected when removing
the grill pan handle as the grill element can
become very hot.
Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident as
the grill cleans itself.
ALWAYS REMOVE THE GRILL PAN HANDLE
DURING GRILLING.
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.
The outer grill element may appear to glow slightly
brighter than the inner element. This is quite normal.

Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid
when grilling meats.
To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure
that the cut out on the underside of the handle
bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.
When toasting bread use the cranked shelf in
position 2 with the grid in the high position.
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to tend the
food during cooking, or the carrier shelf can be lifted
away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant
work surface.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before cooking. Adjust the heat setting
and the shelf as necessary during cooking.
The food should be turned over during cooking
as required.

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 smaller 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
Push in and turn the top oven temperature
control to the required setting.
HINTS AND TIPS
Most cooking should be carried out using an
oven shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. The top oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go out. It will then cycle ON and OFF
showing that the oven temperature is being
maintained.
TO FIT THE TOP OVEN SHELF
The cranked shelf must only be used in the top oven
compartment but a straight shelf from the main oven
may be used to provide alternative positions.
Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be
cooked in the main oven. However, they may be
cooked on a flat shelf from the main oven placed
on the base of the top oven provided there is
sufficient room for air circulation around the food.
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.
Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on
the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base
and to help reduce cleaning.

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.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
If you use the automatic timer to cook food in the
top oven be guided by the recommendations
given below.
*
*
*
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread, etc.,
place the tins or baking trays centrally on the
shelf directly below the element.
When cooking is complete do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
Always ensure food in the oven is covered if its
not possible to remove food immediately after
cooking.
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven
base as it becomes very hot and damage may
occur.
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.
DO NOT use the grill pan 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 pages 23 and 24.
For economy leave the door open for the
shortest possible time, particularly when placing
food into a preheated oven.

THE MAIN FAN OVEN
USES OF THE FAN OVEN
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.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperatures
recommended in the charts on pages 23 and 24. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°C - 25°C for your
own recipes.
BATCH BAKING
The fan oven cooks evenly on both shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking.
SELECTING THE FAN OVEN
Push in and 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 cycle ON and OFF periodically
during cooking showing that the temperature is
being maintained.
Back of the Oven
2. The interior oven light will come ON when the
temperature is selected.

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
charts on pages 23 and 24.
HINTS AND TIPS
Arrange the shelves in the required positions
before switching the oven ON. Shelves are
numbered from the bottom upwards.
DO NOT use the cranked shelf from the grill in
the main oven.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
If you use the automatic timer to cook food in the
main oven be guided by the recommendations
below.
*
*
*
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
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 cooking is complete do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
If it is unavoidable that several dishes are placed
on the shelves, for your safety DO NOT withdraw
the shelf when removing food or dishes from the
oven.
Always ensure food in the oven is covered if its
not possible to remove food immediately after
cooking.
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 floor as it interferes with the oven air
circulation and can lead to base burning; use the
lower shelf position. However non critical dishes
can be placed on the oven base when more
space is required.

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.

DEFROST FEATURE
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 fan 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
Push in and 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.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. 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 cycle ON and OFF periodically during
defrosting to maintain
temperature, inside the oven.
a
steady room
2. 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,
preparing, 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
If Hob Brite is unavailable, one or more of the
cleaning agents below may be used temporarily:
a) Jif Cream Cleaner
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF THE
SUPPLY AND ALLOW THE COOKER TO
COOL BEFORE CLEANING.
ELECTRICITY
b) Baking Soda
CLEANING MATERIALS
TO REMOVE MORE STUBBORN MARKS
1. Bar-Keepers Friend may be used to clean off
Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker,
check that they are suitable and that their use is
recommended by the manufacturer.
more
stubborn
stains
or
to
remove
discolourations.
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
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. If required a Ceramic Hob Scraper can be
purchased using the mail order form provided with
the hob care kit.
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. Apply a small amount of Hob Brite in the centre
of each area to be cleaned.
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.
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.

HINTS AND TIPS
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE
COOKER
TO REDUCE HOB SOILAGE:
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials, or
scourers on the outside of the cooker as some of the
finishes are painted and 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:

CLEANING THE GRILL DEFLECTOR,
GRILL PAN, GRILL PAN GRID, MEAT TIN
AND OVEN SHELVES
Rust stain, bath and sink stain removers.
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, meat tin, grill deflector and oven
shelves 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.
CLEANING INSIDE THE GRILL/OVEN
COMPARTMENTS
Avoid placing plastic items, aluminium foil or
dishes on the hot surface as this will cause
damage to the hob.
The sides, top and back of the grill/top oven and
main oven are coated with a special Stayclean
coating.
The Stayclean coating should not be cleaned
manually.
The vitreous enamel fan oven base and grill
compartment 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.
27

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.
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean
surfaces and must not come into contact with
elements as this may cause damage.
For advice on how to keep the Stayclean coating in
good condition see 'Care of Stayclean Surfaces'.
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 over-browned.
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES
Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats
when the oven temperature is raised to around
220°C.
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.
CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND
INNER DOOR GLASS
The outer door glass is removable for cleaning.
Do use the trivet in the roasting tin. During roasting,
the fat from the joint will be contained beneath the
trivet and therefore prevent it from splashing onto the
Stayclean finish.
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.
HINTS AND TIPS
2. Loosen the two screws using a pozidrive
screwdriver.
Manual cleaning of Stayclean Surfaces IS NOT
recommended. Damage will occur if oven sprays or
abrasives of any kind are used.
3. Hold the door glass securely in place with one
hand before removing the screws completely with
the other hand.
Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean
surface may occur in time. This does not affect the
Stayclean properties in any way.
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.
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.
Follow the recommendations below to keep oven
soilage to a minimum.
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.
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.
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.

TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS
1. Holding the oven door glass with both hands,
gently place the locators into the holes of the
brackets at the bottom of the oven door.
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.
TO CLEAN INSIDE THE INNER GLASS DOOR
The inner glass door is not removable. Clean using
hot soapy water or Hob Brite and a soft cloth. Take
care NOT to use abrasives as they may damage the
glass or seal.
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 the 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.
Support the glass with your hand and prise out
sufficiently to release the glass cover. Unscrew the
bulb in a 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.
Replace the shelves. Restore the electricity supply
and adjust the time of day and clock, as necessary.
