which is adjacent to but not directly above, and not more than 1.25m away from the appliance and capable of
electrical isolation.
The mains lead should be routed such that it cannot touch hot parts of the cooker i.e. the back panel above a
height of 650mm from the floor.
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.
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
Green &
Yellow to
Earth
code:
Brown
to Live
GREEN AND YELLOW
BLUE

Clamp
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with
the letter E or by the earth symbol
or 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.
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.

CONTROL PANEL
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or is just about to finish cooking on your return to the oven.
This will ensure the food has not cooled down and does not require reheating before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven, ideally straight from the refrigerator. Frozen
meat and poultry should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. Warm food should never be placed in the oven if there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the
meat and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. Dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automati-
cally if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so that the delay period is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start
should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients
just before serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been
added, prior to placing food in the oven.
10.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
11.Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Alu-
minium foil gives a good seal.
12.Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.

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.
The hotplate has two high speed burners and two simmering burners which will accommodate pans between
100mm (4”) and 240mm (9 ½”) 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.
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 unstable.
DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan supports.
DO NOT use the glass lid as a working surface.
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.
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 information.
Models with Hob Gas Burner Safety Devices to Prevent Leaks *
These models can be identified by the presence of the device itself.
! Since the hob burners are equipped with a safety device, you must hold the control knob in for about 3-7
seconds after the burner has been lighted to allow the gas to pass until the safety thermocouple has heated.

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 lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in particular will
cause frothing and spitting if added too quickly.
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.
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.

GRILL
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS USED.
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.
A gentle flow of air will be blown from underneath the control panel when the grill or top oven is in use. If the fan
fails to blow air when the grill is in use, you should contact your service engineer immediately.
PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24
23
TO USE THE GRILL
1. Open the top oven/grill door and remove the grill pan.
2. Remove the heat shield from the rear of the shelf for maximum grilling area and place the shelf in appropriate position
- (Chesterfield only).
3. 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.
4. Slide the grill pan along the shelf towards the rear of the grill compartment until it stops.
5. 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.
6. To turn off, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the symbol O.
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 a 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.
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.
For au gratin dishes eg. Macaroni Cheese and meringue toppings eg. Baked Alaska, place the dish on the floor of
the grill compartment. The base of the grill pan can be used for warming fruit garnishes on the reduced setting.
REMOVE HEAT SHIELD
FROM SHELF WHEN
GRILLING FOR MAXIMUM
GRILLING AREA - (Chesterfield only).
NOTE: Strong detergents used in dishwashers may damage the grill pan grid finish; clean in soapy water as
described in CARE AND CLEANING section.

MAIN OVEN
The main oven is fitted with a safety device that re-lights the burner if the flame has been extinguished for any
reason and another safety device that reduces the gas flow to a safe level if, for any reason, the burner fails to
light.
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 if 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”).
TO USE THE MAIN OVEN
1. Check that the timer is set to manual.
2. Place the oven shelves in the appropriate positions (refer to cooking charts).
3. Push in and turn the oven control knob fully anti-clockwise. Sparking will continue until the burner is lit.
4. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting (refer to cooking chart). There is a delay of about one minute
whilst the safety device operates before the burner comes on full.
5. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise the the symbol O.
Never place dishes over the burner.
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven - this should cease after a short period of use.
The oven temperature control marking are gas marked 0 to 9.

MAIN OVEN
COLD START COOKING
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.
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.
ALUMINIUM FOIL
If using Aluminium Foil:
1. Remember that it is important to increase the cooking 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.

THE ‘SLOW COOK’ SETTING
The 'Slow Cook' setting on the main oven thermostat is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming
plates for short periods.
USING THE 'SLOW COOK' SETTING FOR SLOW COOKING
1. All dishes cooked by the 'Slow Cook' setting should be cooked for a minimum 6 hours. They will 'hold' at this
setting for a further hour but marked deterioration in appearance will be noticed in some cases.
2. Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at Mk. 6 for 30 minutes before turning to the 'Slow Cook' setting
and never be cooked lower than the middle shelf position.
3. Joints of meat over 6 lbs (2.7kg) and poultry over 4 lbs 8oz (2 kg) should not be cooked using the 'Slow Cook'
setting.
4. Always stand covered joints on a rack over the meat tin to allow good air circulation.
5. A meat thermometer should be used when cooking pork joints and poultry. The internal temperature of the food
should reach at least 88°C.
6. This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and stuffed poultry.
7. Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil before putting in the oven.
8. Cover casseroles with foil and then the lid to prevent loss of moisture.
9. Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.
10.Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small pieces.
11.Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of the cooking time.
12.Use the zones of heat in the oven, e.g. meringues and milk puddings can be cooked lower in the oven whilst
other dishes requiring greater heat can be cooked above them.
13.Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and should be included in day cooking sessions, when they
can be observed from time to time.
14.Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of ten minutes after soaking, before inclusion in any dish.

CARE AND CLEANING
! 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).
! 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.
! Check that the cooker is level. Take care not to damage any floor coverings.
OVEN HEAT CLEAN LININGS
The oven side linings are coated with a special enamel which has a continuous cleaning action.
The higher the oven temperature the more effective the action. In most cases this cleaning operation will proceed
during normal cooking. However, if roasting is done frequently, or high temperatures are not used regularly, it may be
necessary to occasionally operate the oven empty at Mark 8 for about an hour.
It should not normally be necessary to clean the linings with water, but if desired, wipe them over with a soapy cloth,
followed by a wipe with a damp clean cloth.
OVEN DOORS
The door inner glass panels can be removed for ease of cleaning by simply sliding the panels out of the frame.
REPLACEMENT OF OVEN LIGHT BULB
CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE
REPLACING THE LAMP TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Light bulbs are not covered by the manufacturer's guarantee.
A new 25W, 300°C rated SES bulb can be obtained from your cooker supplier or any major electrical retailer.
1. Remove the shelves from the oven.
2. Unscrew the lens using a thick cloth to protect your fingers in the unlikely event of a lens fracture.
3. Unscrew bulb.
4. Fit new bulb and refit lens.

brush (e.g. a toothbrush). After cleaning wipe the burner with a cloth to remove the detergent waste and let it
dry for at least 2 hours.
WARNING!
1. Brush the burner in the directions indicated below.
2. DO NOT re-ignite the burner with the detergent residue.

WITH YOUR COOKER
Before contacting your nearest Service Centre/Installer, check the problem guide below; there may be
nothing wrong with your cooker.
ꢚꢏꢛꢍꢜꢑꢘ
ꢗꢑ !
Burner will not light:
If all burners fail to ignite:
Check that sparks appear at the burners; a clicking noise should
be heard.
If not;
Check that the electricity supply is turned on.
If the electricity supply has failed, all burners can be lit by a match.
If only one burner fails to ignite:
Check that the burner is dry and that spillage of food or cleaning
fluid remains are not affecting the ignitor or burner ports.
Clean away any debris with a dry nylon brush such as an old
toothbrush. If a wire wool pad has been used for cleaning around
the burner ensure the ignitor is free from any stray strands. Any
water on the burner should be dried with a cloth or kitchen towel.
Hotplate burner:
Make sure that all the burners parts are correctly seated.

DISPOSAL
Disposal of your product
To minimise the risk of injury to children please dispose of your product carefully and safely. Remove all doors

appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they
contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of
the appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their
old appliance.
