Operating the control when the grill is in use
The knobs for the hotplates can be rotated in either
direction to provide variable heat control, the Main
Oven knob can only be rotated clockwise from the
Off position.
Note: Always ensure that all controls are in
the OFF position, when the appliance is not
in use.
In common with all cookers having controls sited
above the grill compartment, care must be taken
when setting the controls, due to hot air being
emitted from the grill compartment.
Slow cooking ‘S’*
The main oven has a ‘S’ setting specially designed
to reduce energy usage. Full details of this can be
found in the Slow cooking section of this book.
The hob hot warning lights will operate soon after
each of the heating areas have been switched on.
Each warning light will remain illuminated until each
heating area has cooled down.

Hotplate
Turn the control to 6 for fast cooking. To cook more
slowly or simmer, turn the control to a lower setting
according to the size of the saucepan and the
amount of liquid. The two small Hotplates are
specially for smaller pans, low temperature cooking
and simmering.
GB
CAUTION: IF AT ANY TIME A CRACK IN THE
SURFACE BECOMES VISIBLE, DISCONNECT THE
APPLIANCE IMMEDIATELY FROM THE SUPPLY.
Under no circumstances should the hob be used
with aluminium foil in contact with the hob surface as
damage can occur.
The following boiling plates are located beneath the
decorative circular patterned cooking areas:-
Do Not leave a hotplate switched on without a pan
as this wastes energy and may shorten the life of
the hotplate.
Front left 6 heat: 1200W
Rear left 6 heat: 1700W
Rear right 6 heat: 1200W
Front right 6 heat: 1700W
CONTROL SETTINGS GUIDE
This is provided only as a guide – settings also
depend on the type of pan used and the quality of
food.
The cooking areas change colour when heated
(become red) indicating which heating element is
switched on. The cooking area returns to its original
colour when the heating element is switched Off.
Safety requirements for deep fat frying
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely
cover the appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the
heating or cooking period.
4. Never try to fry too much food at a time,
especially frozen food. This only lowers the
temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting in
greasy food.
5. 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 to quickly.
Warning: Even though the cooking area has
returned to its original colour it may still be hot.
The controls for the hotplates can be turned in either
direction.
Turn the control to 6 for fast cooking. To reduce the
heat to cook more slowly or simmer, turn the control
to a lower setting according to the size of the
saucepan and the amount of liquid.
Pans can be placed on the unheated areas of the
panel when cooking is finished and before serving
food. It is inadvisable at any time to leave a heating
element switched on without a pan in position as this
wastes energy, and could make soil or rub-off from
aluminium pans more difficult to remove. To protect
elements against over-heating, safety cut-outs have
been incorporated with each element. After several
minutes with the control at setting 6 the safety cut-
out switches the element Off and On continuously,
thus preventing any adverse effects that may be
caused by an excessive build-up of heat in the
cooking area.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from
streaks of oil or fat.

are usually lined with a different material such as tin.
A stainless steel pan with a sandwich base of
aluminium and stainless steel is an excellent
conductor of heat and is suitable for use on ceramic
and halogen hobs, providing they are used in
accordance with the saucepans manufacturers’
recommendations.
Stainless steel pans with a sandwich base of
aluminium and copper are excellent conductors of
heat. If using stainless steel saucepans with
aluminium and copper sandwich bases on ceramic
and halogen hobs, the use of these pans must be in
accordance with the saucepan manufacturers’
recommendations.
Extra care should be taken to ensure the base of the
pan and the hob is cleaned, and the hob
conditioned, after each and every use, when using
this type of saucepan.
If these recommendations are not followed, the
result will be a build up of small copper deposits on
the surface of your hob which, if not cleaned after
each use, will result in permanent marking of your
hob.
Always lift the pan from the hob, do not drag or
slide across the hob surface as damage may occur.

Fix the grill pan handle securely in position. See
below.
Plates and dishes placed on the floor of the grill
compartment will be heated when the oven is in use.
Grill Compartment as a ‘Hotcupboard’
Food which only requires browning should be
placed directly on/in the grill pan in the grill pan
runner, or on the floor of the grill compartment.
(the grill pan grid may be removed.)
Do not operate the grill control when using the
compartment as a hotcupboard.
Leave the control on setting 6 for toast, sealing
and fast cooking of foods. For thicker foods
requiring longer cooking turn the control to a lower
setting after the initial sealing, on both sides, on
setting 6. The thicker the food the lower the
control should be set.
Do take care when removing plates, dishes and
utensils from the grill compartment when the oven is
in use as they may become quite hot.
You may need to use oven gloves when removing
warmed items.
Warning: Take care as the grill will be hot –
always wear oven gloves. Always ensure that
the grill pan is clean BEFORE use. Excess
fat build up in the bottom of the pan could
cause a fire hazard. Never line grill pan with

Oven
Main Oven - Fan Cooking
Using the Main Oven for Other Functions
GB
This control switches on the main oven. To select
Fan Cooking - Turn thecontrol clockwise and select
any temperature between 100°C and Max. As the
control is turned the fan will start.The main oven light
will immediately come on.
The thermostat light indicates that the main oven is
heating. When it turns off, the temperature inside the
oven has reached the setting made with the main
oven knob. At this point, the light will turn on and off
as the oven maintains the temperature at a constant
level.
‘S’ SLOW Setting
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and
warming plates for short periods. Extra care should
be taken when warming bone china, as it may be
damaged in a hot oven.
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the
oven floor as this could damage both the oven
lining and the plates which are being warmed.
The fan and the oven interior light will remain on
throughout cooking. The red main oven thermostat
light will come on until the oven reaches therequired
temperature. It will then cycle off and on as the oven
thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are:
The oven stays cleaner because there is less
splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less
fear of overcooking.
The heat for fan cooking in the main oven is
provided by an element situated at the back of the
oven, around the fan.
Fan cooking is ideal for large poultry or joints of
meat, reducing cooking times and often eliminating
the need for pre-heating the oven. It is also ideal for
batch cooking where food is cooked on morethan
one level, because the forced circulation of hot air
gives aneven temperature from the top to the bottom
of the oven.
Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.
Fully loading the oven can be economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by
up to 2 hours.
Operation:
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and
ensure the door is fully closed.
2. Select ‘S’ (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning
the Main Oven Control and ensuring the oven door
is fully closed.
To use the oven proceed as follows:
Storage and re-heating of food:
The shelves should be evenly spaced. To avoid
unnecessary cleaning, shelves which are not in
use should be removed from the oven.
Set the main oven control to the required
temperature. Pre-heating is not normally
necessary, but some foods such as bread,
scones and Yorkshire pudding do benefit from
being placed in a hot oven (see cooking charts).
Place the food to be cooked in the centre of each
shelf to allow for even air circulation around the
food.
1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately,
place it in a clean container and cool as soon as
possible.
2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the
refrigerator before re-heating.
3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is
piping hot before serving.
4. Only re-heat food once.

Points to consider when preparing food for
“SLOW” cooking:
GB
1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into
the oven ensuring enough room for air to circulate.
2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require
a minimum of 6 hours, however, if they are
cooked for 1 -2 hours longer then deterioration in
their appearance may be noticed.
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 Ib) or
poultry over 2.0kg (4lb 8oz).
We do not recommend that joints of meat or
poultry are stuffed before cooking on the slow
setting.
4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or
poultry at 170°C for 30 minutes before wrapping in
foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good
air circulation) before turning the control to the
slow setting and cooking immediately.
5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are
thoroughly cooked by checking with a meat
thermometer before serving.
6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before
cooking. We do not recommend placing frozen
food in the oven to cook.
7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the
boil before placing in the oven.
8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal
(not airtight) and cover to the top with foil to
prevent loss of moisture.
9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even
sized small pieces to cook properly.
10.Always adjust seasoning before serving.
11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important
that the beans are soaked and then boiled fora
minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish
to destroy any toxins.
12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be
necessary to check during cooking to avoid
overcooking.

Care and Cleaning
Decorative Trims
Ceramic hob
GB
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly
to prevent any build up of soiling. The
To reduce the amount of cleaning always ensure that
the hob and cooking utensils are clean and dry
before use. Regular use of cleaner conditioner is
recommended for proper care and protection of the
hob surface. Apply conditioner before using the hob
for the first time. It contains a mild cleaning agent,
so that subsequent applications may clean off soil
and apply a protective film at the same time. For
stubborn stains or heavy soiling use any of the
following materials, and finish off with conditioner.
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.
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.
1.
2.
3.
Cif, non-scratch scouring cream.
Liquid Gumption Kitchen Cleanser.
Special Powder Cleanser.
Powder Cleanser – Mineral deposits that are
present in hard water, and some foods, may cause
‘discolourations’ that appear in the form of grey or
brown stains. The stains sometimes appear to be in
or under the glass surface. If there are some
persistent stains after using any of the other
recommended cleaning materials, powder cleanser
may be applied, following the manufacturers
instructions.
Oven Shelf Supports
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher
safe.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or the powder
cleanser on the painted metal framework.
To remove hold the support at the front 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.
Cleaner Conditioner – Regular use of the
conditioner will make the surface easier to clean thus
ensuring that years of heavy abrasive cleaning do
not progressively dull the surface.
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the
rear fixing hole and push in the front leg.
Grill
Oven Lamp Replacement
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.
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.
WARNING: To avoid electric shocks - please
ensure that the electricity supply to the
appliance is switched off and the appliance
is fully cold, before removing the lamp lens.
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.

CLEANING THE DOORS
3. The inside of the outer door glass can now be
cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.
Take particular care not to damage the inner
surface of the door inner glass that is coated
with a heat reflective layer. Do not use
scouring pads, or abrasive powder,which will
scratch the glass. Ensure that the glass
panel is not subjected to any sharp
mechanical blows.
GB
NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE
INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.
Refit the door inner glass as follows.
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine
steel wool soap pad. For slight soiling theinner glass
panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without
removing it from the door. Aftercleaning, rinse and
dry with a soft cloth.
1. Open the door fully.
2. Locate the inner door glass into its slots, so that
the printing is readable from the face nearest the
oven in the closed position and the widest black
band is towards the bottom of the door. The inner
door glass has a special reflective coating on one
side, in order to minimise surface temperatures
and energy consumption during use, it is
important it is fitted correctly.
SIDE OPENING DOORS
Cleaning the door glass is the same as the
drop down doors, except take care to
support the weight of the inner glass when
removing and refitting.
3. Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it
will go and replace the end caps.
DROP DOWN DOORS
'Stay Clean' Panel
Remove the door inner glass as follows.
1. Open the door fully and remove the extrusion end
caps (This should be done by hand but if it
proves too difficult, simply lift the inner glass to
ease the end caps out of position).
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
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.
NOTE: If you need to use a tool - be
careful not to damage the extrusion or end
cap.
2. Carefully slide the inner glass towards you
andwithdraw it from its locating slots. Ensure that
the door is not allowed to slam shut, due to the
reduction in door weight. Clean the glass as
described above.
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh
abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind.
