Gas connection
The cooker should be connected to the gas-supply by a corgi registered installer. During installation of this
product it is essential to fit an approved gas tap to isolate the supply from the appliance for the convenience
of any subsequent removal or servicing. Connection of the appliance to the gas mains or liquid gas must be
carried out according to the prescribed regulation in force, and only after it is ascertained that it is adaptable
to the type of gas to be used. If not, follow the instructions indicated in the paragraph headed “Adaptation to
different gas types”. On some models the gas supply can be connected on the left or on the right, as
necessary; to change the connection, reverse the position of the hose holder with that of the cap and replace
the gasket (supplied with the appliance). In the case of connection to liquid gas, by tank, use pressure
regulators that conform to the regulation in force. The gas supply must be connected to the left of the
appliance. Be sure that the hose does not pass through the rear of the cooker touching hot parts.
HOT PARTS
Important: make sure the supply pressure conforms with the values shown in the table entitled “Caracteristics of
the burners and nozzles”. When the cooker is installed between cabinets (recessed), the gas connection
must be effected by an approved flexible hose with bayonet fitting (BS 669 Current Edition).The gas inlet
for the cookers is a threaded G 1/2 gas female fitting.
Connecting the gas supply
To make the connection, a flexible hose should be used corresponding to the current gas regulations which are:
•
•
•
the hose must never be at any point in its lenght in contact with the “hot” parts of the cooker;
the hose must never be longer than 1,5 metre;
the hose must not be subject to any tension or torsional stress and it must not have any excessively narrow
curves or bottlenecks;
•
•
the hose must be easy to inspect along its entire length to check its condition;
the hose must always be in good condition, never attempt to repair.
Important: the installation must comply with gas safety (installation and use) regulations 1984. In all cases for the
above, by low, a qualified, corgi approved engineer must be called for installation.
Important: Before using the oven, position the oven burner deflector "A" (provided with the appliance) in the
correct place by inserting the lower tab into the support slot (see figure).

Use of Hotplates
Practical Advice on Using the Burners
To use the burners as efficiently as possible, some basic guidelines should be followed:
• Use cookware that is the right size for each burner (see table) in order to prevent the flame from spreading
beyond the bottom of the cookware.
• Only use cookware with flat bottoms.
• As soon as the boiling point is reached, turn the knob to the lowest setting.
• Always use lids with pots and pans.

Auxiliary (A)
N.B.: On models equipped with a reduction grid, the grid should only be used with the auxiliary burner when
cookware with a diameter of less than 12 cm is used.
1. To light a specific burner push the corresponding knob all the way in and turn it counter-clockwise to
maximum keeping it pressed down until the burner lights.
2. To turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the desired setting. Only turn the control knob between the
large flame symbol and the small flame symbol for adjusting the setting.
3. 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 (if fitted) 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
electrode using a small nylon brush such as a tooth brush. Access to the electrode 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.
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.
HOWTO DEALWITH 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.

Grilling
CAUTION: ACCESSIBLE PARTS WILL BECOME HOT WHENTHE GRILL
IS USED - CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
To operate the grill proceed as follows:
l Press the ignition button and then push in and turn the grill control knob anti-clockwise to the large
flame symbol. Continue to press the ignition button until the spark lights the gas.
l Only turn the control knob between the large flame symbol and the small flame symbol for adjusting
the setting.
Grill Pan Handle
l To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat and create a fire hazard.
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, fish,
chicken portions 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.
NOTE: Strong detergents used in dishwashers may damage the grill pan grid finish; clean in soapy
water as described in CARE AND CLEANING section.
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.

Grill
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.
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.
Control Panel
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.
Decorative Trims
Wipe over the outer door glass panels with a cloth 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.
Doors
Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) – open the door fully and unscrew the two screws securing
the glass panel, taking care not to allow the glass to fall.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.
Warning: Oven must not be operated with inner door glass removed.
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.
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.
Ovens
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher safe.
Oven Shelf
Supports
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.
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear fixing hole and push in the front leg.
The battery is not covered bye the guarantee.Use an alkaline AA battery.The battery holder is located
in the plinth panel below the oven door.Open the oven door fully.Press the tag on the left hand side of
the battery holder/cover and withdraw it just enough to get access to the battery. Fit the new battery
with the end marked “+” on the same side of the battery holder as the red lead. Replace the battery
