Introduction
Your new appliance is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only
applicable if the appliance has been installed in accordance with the installation
instructions detailed in this booklet.
To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.
The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be
accepted for use in any other installation.
When the cooker is first used an odour may be emitted,
this will cease after a period of use
When first using the cooker ensure that the room is well ventilated (e.g. open a window or
use an extractor fan) and that persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any
fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room until the smell has
ceased. This odour is due to temporary finish on oven liners and elements and also any
moisture absorbed by the insulation.
* The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:
(a) Has been used solely in accordance with the Users Instruction Book.
(b) Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the
rating plate attached to this equipment.

Installation
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
MAINS CONNECTION
Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your
supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate, which is situated on the rear panel.
The cooker must be connected by a competent person such as a NICEIC registered
contractor to a suitable double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of 32A (30A
double-pole control switch installations found in older properties are acceptable) and a
minimum contact clearance of 3mm, which should be fitted adjacent to the cooker, in
accordance with IEE regulations. The control unit must be within 2 metres of but not
directly above the appliance and should be easily accessible in the event of an emergency.
The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a conductor size of 6mm2,
minimum.
Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the rear access cover. The mains
cable must pass through the cable clamp adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable
should be used to allow the cooker to be pulled out for servicing.
Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any brackets affixed to the rear panel
and is not trapped to the rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between
cabinets.
COOKER HEIGHT
Your cooker must stand on a flat surface so that the hob is perfectly level, and the cooker
is stable and cannot be rocked.
Note: If the cooker is to be placed on a base, precautions must be taken to prevent it
from slipping off the base.
SITING THE COOKER
The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets spaced 500mm apart. The space
either side need only be sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing. It can
be used with cabinets one side or both as well as in an angled corner setting. It can also
be used freestanding. Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must not be
nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be protected by heat resistant material. Any
overhanging surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm.
The height of the cooker can be adjusted by means of adjustable feet in the plinth (900 -
915mm). Adjust the feet by tilting the cooker from the side. Then install the cooker into
position.
MOVING THE COOKER
Before moving your cooker, switch off at the cooker control unit, ensure that it is cool.
Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of
the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements.
Note: Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy. Take care to ensure that any floor
covering is not damaged.
RADIO INTERFERENCE
This appliance conforms to EN 55014 regarding suppression of radio and television
interference.

Hotplates General Information Notes
Note: Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with
the hob surface.
Use of Hotplates
The controls set the hotplates at six pre-set power levels. Each control can be used to
select one of six temperature settings from a minimum at position 1 to a maximum at
position 6. The red spot hotplates heat up more rapidly to give faster boiling.
Control Settings Guide
This table is provided only as a guide – settings also depend on the type of pan used and the
quality of food.

Safety requirements for deep fat frying
1.
Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area.
Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.
2.
3.
4.
Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking period.
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.
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.
Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.

Oven Timer Operation
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Top Oven and Main Oven can be controlled by the automatic timer. When the timer
control has been set for one oven it is possible to use the other oven only on the same
automatic cooking programme.
NEVER OPERATE THE GRILL WHEN THE OVENS ARE SET TO COOK AUTOMATICALLY.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook and require approximately the
same temperature.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or 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. We advise that 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. We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, for example Shepherds
Pie, should not be cooked automatically 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. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
TIMER OPERATION
1. Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.
2. Check that the electricity supply to the oven is turned On.
3. Check that the oven clock is at the right time of day.

Top Oven - Cookery Notes
TOP OVEN COOKING
The Top Oven is used in exactly the same way as the main oven to cook all types of food. It
can either be used alone, to cook small quantities of food, or in conjunction with the main
oven to provide additional cooking space, so often necessary when entertaining.
There are two cooking positions, the shelf placed directly on the floor of the oven, or one
runner from the floor of the oven. To correctly position the rod shelf the side rods with
indents must be uppermost and to the rear, this forms a stop position in conjunction
with the side liners. The correct positioning of food is indicated in the top oven charts.
These charts are a guide only, giving approximate cooking temperatures and times. To
suit personal tastes and requirements, it may be necessary to increase or decrease
temperatures by 10°C. Food must never be placed directly on the floor of the oven
without a shelf in position, and there should always be at least 25mm (1”) between the top
of the food and the grill element. Always ensure a 75mm (3”) gap is left at the front of
the baking tray to ensure even cooking.
COOKING MEAT/POULTRY IN THE TOP OVEN
The top oven is most useful for the longer, slower cooking methods required for cheaper
cuts of meat, casserole cooking, pot roasting and braising.
Small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3 lbs) or poultry up to 2.5kg (6 lbs) in weight can be
roasted in a small meat pan in the top oven, but should preferably be slow roasted or
covered with a lid of aluminium foil (one or two incisions in the top of the foil will allow the
meat or poultry to brown). Always ensure that there is at least 25mm (1”) between the
top of the foil and the grill element. Larger joints of meat weighing more than 1.5kg (3
lbs), or poultry weighing more than 2.5kg (6 lbs), should be roasted in the main oven.
TOP OVEN AS A HOT CUPBOARD
Plates and dishes placed on the floor of the top oven will be heated when the main oven is
in use. When the main oven is not in use (for instance when a meal is being cooked on the
hob) place the plates and serving dishes on the rod shelf, using the bottom runner, and
turn the top oven control to approximately 100°C. A maximum time of 10 - 12 minutes is
all that is required to heat the plates and dishes.
Do not operate the grill control when using the top oven for cooking or as a hot
cupboard.

Oven
With the oven door closed, heating of the oven is achieved by
turning the control clockwise to the required ‘oven temperature’
scale on the control panel, as recommended in the temperature
charts.
Oven Control
The pilot light will immediately come on and go off during cooking
as the thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
Note: At the end of the cooking period there may be a momentary
puff of steam when the oven door is opened. This will disperse in a few
seconds and is perfectly normal characteristics of an oven with a
good door seal.
Note: Remember to switch off the oven control after cooking is
finished.
Oven Cookery Notes
The ‘oven temperature charts’ are a guide only, giving approximate
cooking temperatures and times. To suit personal taste and
requirements, it may be necessary to increase or decrease
temperatures by 10˚C.
Wipe the joint, dry well with a clean cloth, kitchen tissue, etc., and
weigh it. Meat which has been stored in a refrigerator, should be
allowed to come to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes
before cooking.
To prepare meat
for roasting in your
electric oven
Always completely thaw frozen meat before cooking.
Beef, lamb and mutton may be lightly floured, but pork should have
the rind scored, brushed over lightly with olive oil, and sprinkled
with salt – for crisp crackling.
Place the joint in a suitably sized meat pan (a small joint in a large
meat pan causes unnecessary oven splashing). Small joints
weighing less than 1.5kg (3lbs) may be pot roasted. Additional fat
should not be used, except for veal, very lean meat, poultry, which
can either be ‘larded’ with fat bacon, or brushed over very
sparingly with melted fat/cooking oil. When potatoes are roasted
round the joint, they only require to be coated in melted fat/cooking
oil. It is not necessary to baste, when roasting in an electric oven,
and liquid/stock should not be added to a meat pan.

Oven Cookery Notes
Temperature and
Time
The secret of succulent, tender meat, is not to roast quickly at too
high a temperature. Best results are obtained when roasting is
carried out at low temperatures. When a lower temperature is used,
the joint loses less weight, is more tender (too high a temperature
causes meat to be tough and dry), and the splashing of fat onto oven
interior is reduced. When a complete meal is being cooked in the oven,
cooking time may need to be increased, and temperature may need to
be raised for approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking period
(for instance when cooking Yorkshire pudding to serve with roast
beef).
The times and temperature suggested should be used as a guide but
may vary according to:–
1. Whether you prefer meat rare, medium or well done.
2. The size and shape of your joint.
a) A short thick joint requires a longer cooking period than a long
thin joint.
b) A small joint under 1.5kg (3lbs) takes longer per 450g (1lb) than
a large one, whereas a large joint over 3kg (6lbs) will cook in
the time given for ‘minutes’ per 450g (1lb) without the ‘minutes
over added.
’
c) Boned/rolled and stuffed joints take longer to cook through
than those with a bone. (The weight of stuffing should be
added to the oven ready weight of meat/poultry to calculate
roasting times.)
Never use meat pans larger than 390 x 300mm (15”x12”) and baking
trays no larger than 330x255mm (13”x10”), these should be positioned
centrally on the oven shelf. Food should not be placed directly on the
floor of the oven. To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rod shelves which
are not in use, should be removed from the oven.

Care and Cleaning
WARNING
Turn off the main switch before cleaning. Before switching on again, ensure that all controls are in
the off position.
Never use biological washing powder, harsh abrasives, scouring pads, aerosols cleaners or oven
chemical cleaners of any kind.
CONTROL PANEL
Wipe with a damp cloth wrung out in warm soapy water and polish with a dry cloth.
Stubborn stains can be removed with a cream, paste or liquid cleaner. Care must be
taken to ensure that this does not come into contact with plastic parts.
HOB
Clean hob with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water. Stubborn stains can be removed
with a cream, paste or liquid cleaner, or by gently rubbing with liberally soaped, very fine
steel wool pads. Check that the cleaning agent used is approved by the Vitreous Enamel
Development Council.
OVEN DOORS
Wipe over the door outer 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. Do not use
scouring pads or abrasive powder which may scratch the surface. Clean the door inner
panels with a cloth wrung out in soapy water. Stubborn stains can be removed with a
cream, paste or liquid cleaner, or by gently rubbing with liberally soaped, very fine steel
wool pads. Check that the cleaning agent used is approved by the Vitreous Enamel
Development Council.

Care and Cleaning
HOW ‘STAY CLEAN’ WORKS
The surface of the ‘Stay clean’ oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a special
vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220˚C (425˚F) or above, the
special surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature
the more effective it is. In most cases normal cooking operation at this temperature will
permit this cleaning operation to proceed during cooking. However if higher cooking
temperatures are not used regularly it may be necessary, to prevent heavy soiling, to run
the oven without rod shelves or a meat pan at maximum setting for a couple of hours.
This may be necessary once a month or once every two or three months, depending on
the type and amount of oven cooking.
‘STAY CLEAN’ OVEN LINERS
It should not normally be necessary to clean the oven liners.
If the user feels it is desirable to do so remove the rod shelves and wash the side panels
in warm soapy water followed by rinsing in clear water.
GRILL/TOP OVEN
Remove the rod shelf, 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/oven compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove any
stubborn stains left on the floor of the compartment.
MAIN OVEN
Remove the rod shelves and wipe out the oven compartment, use a fine steel wool soap
pad to remove any stubborn stains left on the floor of the compartment.
CLEANING MATERIALS TO AVOID
1. Plastic or nylon pads
2. Household abrasive powders and scourers, these may scratch the surface.
3. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.
4. Caustic cleaners, these will etch the surface and attack the metal frame.
5. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.
NOTE: We do not recommend the use of decorative covers over the hot hotplates as these can
hold condensation and cause corrosion. Accidental operation with a cover in place can cause
intense heat. Never place saucepan lids on the hotplates, as this may cause corrosion.
