or fat.
GB
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 lo-
wer it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in
particular will cause frothing and spitting if added
too quickly.
The hotplate has two high speed burners and two
simmering burners which will accommodate pans
between 100mm (4”) and 240mm (91/2”) diameter. All
pans should be positioned centrally over the burners.
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free
from streaks of oil or fat.

large flame symbol and the small flame symbol
when adjusting the setting.
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.

DO NOT use the hotplate unless all pan supports
are in position.
DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be un-
stable.
! 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.
DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan
supports.
HOB GAS BURNER
SAFETY DEVICE
DO NOT use the glass lid as a working surface.
Practical Advice on Using
the Burners
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.
ELECTRONIC
LIGHTING DEVICE
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.
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.
• Always use lids with pots and pans.
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.

Fixing the Grill PanHandle
IS USED - CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle
securely before use:
To operate the grill proceed as follows:
Open the grill door and remove the grill pan.
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.
Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the desired
setting. There is a delay of about six seconds whilst
the safety device operates before the burner comes
on full. Only turn the control knob between the large
flame symbol and the small flame symbol when
adjusting the setting.
1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external
‘hooks’ embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)
2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits
exactly the protruding support of the pan
(fig .2) and holds the pan from the bottom.
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The best
results are achieved by placing the oven rack on the
uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into the grill
pan will make the collection of grease particles more
efficient and prevent the formation of smoke.
To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to
the symbol O
! When using the grill, the
oven door must be left
open by positioning the
deflector “B” between

Slide the grill pan along the runner towards the rear of
the grill compartment until it stops. An odour may be
noticed when first using the grill - this schould cease
after a short period of use.
Grill can be started from cold but for the best result
preheat for approximately five minutes. Most cooking is
done with the heat on full, but it may be necessary after
sealing the food to reduce the heat as required.

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.
DO NOT
cover the grill pan or grid with
aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat
and create a fire hazard.

Oven
ROASTING OF LARGE POULTRY
The main oven is fitted with a safety device that will
cut off the gas supply to the burner if the flame has
been extinguished for any reason. Each time the main
oven 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.
GB
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.
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.
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used
is 325mm x 350mm (13” x 14”).
3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the
hotplate or in a hot oven, Mk. 6, and then serve
immediately.
TO USE THE MAIN OVEN
4. Only re-heat food once.
1. Place the oven shelves in the appropriate positions
(refer to cooking charts).
‚COOK CHILL’ DISHES
2. Press in the ignition button and then push in and
turn the control knob fully anti-clockwise. 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.
3. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required
setting (refer to cooking chart).
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 coo-
king 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.
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise the
the symbol O.
If for any reason the oven burner has not lit after 15
seconds, turn the control knob to the OFF position.
Leave the main oven door open and wait for at least 1
minute before attempting to light the burner again.
Never place dishes over the burner.
The oven temperature control marking are gas marked
0 to 9. The equivalent degrees Celsius (sometimes
called Centigrade) and degrees Fahrenheit are shown
below as a guide.
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven -
this should cease after a short period of use.

Anything requiring long slow cooking such as

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.

Care and Cleaning
Grill
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.
GB
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.
Control Panel
Main Oven Cleaning
Main oven is fitted with “Stay Clean” panel.
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols,
scouring pads or abrasive powder for cleaning the
plastic knobs as damage will occur.
‚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.
Decorative Trims
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.
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh
abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind.
Doors
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.
Oven Shelf Supports
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher
safe.
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.
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.
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear
fixing hole and push in the front leg.
Replacing the Battery
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 holder by pushing it firmly
into the hole in the plinth.
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.
