Gas Cut Off

This cooker has a safety cut out feature which switches off the burners when you close the cover. This device is provided as a safety feature in case the cover is lowered with the burners on.

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.

! 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.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 GB 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.

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 itmay spread the burning fat or oil over the

edge of the pan.

4.Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before

moving it.

! After prolonged used of the gas hob there may be some small amount of discolouration in the area around the large burners. This is normal and can be easily removed using propriety stainless steel cleaning agents.

CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME

GB 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 must stop using and switch off the grill burner immediately and contact our service department.

WARNING ??? DO NOT USE THE GRILL WITHOUT AN

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE COOKER

Grill Pan Handle

The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle securely before use:

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.

The grill pan can be stored in the top compartment with the handle attached by placing the shelf in the middle or lower position and tilting the grill pan over the rear edge of the shelf.

TO USE THE GRILL

1.Open the top oven/grill door and remove the grill pan.

2.Place the shelf in the appropriate position.

3.Push 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. Ensure that the appliance is connected to the correct electrical supply and and that the supply is switched on.

5.Slide the grill pan along the shelf towards the rear of the grill compartment until it stops.

6.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.

7.To turn off, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the symbol ??? .

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 one 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.

NOTE: Strong detergents used in dishwashers may damage the grill pan grid finish; clean in soapy water as described in CARE AND CLEANING section. Always ensure that the grill pan handle is correctly fitted to the grill pan.

Top Oven

The top oven can be used to cook small quantities of food or used in conjunction with the main oven to provide additional cooking space.

The top oven 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 top oven is used, the safety device has to be activated by pushing and holding in the control knob for 5 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 top oven is in use, you must stop using and switch off the oven burner immediately and contact our service department.

TO USE THE TOP OVEN

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.

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:

The following times and setting are for guidance GB only. You may wish to alter the setting to give a result more to your satisfaction. When a different

setting to that shown below is given in a recipe, the recipe instructions should be followed.

Allow 15 minutes preheat for best results. Always turn the thermostat knob to Mark 9 first, before turning back to the required Gas Mark. Shelf position 1 is the highest.

???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.

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.

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.

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 for a minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any toxins.

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.

Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) ???

open the door fully and carefully slide the inner glass towards you, 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.

When refitting the glass make sure it is fitted correctly i.e. reflective face is fitted the right way round.
