Simmering aids, such as
asbestos or mesh mats, are
NOT recommended. They will
reduce burner performance and
could damage the pan supports.
4 5
Avoid using unstable and
misshapen pans that may tilt
easily and pans with a very
small base diameter e.g. milk pans,
single egg poachers. The minimum
pan diameter recommended is
120mm.
The Wok burner is designed to
provide even heat over a large
area. It is ideal for large pans
and stir frying. For heating smaller
pans the smaller burners may be
more efficient.
The drawing by each knob
indicates which burner that knob
controls. Push in and turn a
knob to the large flame symbol ( )
and press the igniter button or light
with a match.
Make sure flames are under the
pans. Using a lid will help the
contents boil more quickly.
Pans and kettles with concave bases
or down turned base rims should not
be used.
Adjust the flame height to suit
by turning the knob. On this
cooker the low position is
beyond high, not between high and
off. The small flame marks the ‘low
position’. Turn the knob towards it
after the contents of a pan have
boiled.

Be safe
You need clean fresh air - so does your cooker. Burner flames produce exhaust gases, heat and
moisture. Make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a
powered cooker hood that vents outside. If you have several burners on or use the cooker for a long time,
open a window or turn on an extractor fan. For more detail see the Installation Instructions.
We recommend you read pages 20 & 21 if you have not used a gas cooker before.
We describe some basic guidelines on how to use a gas cooker safely.
Gas and Electricity on
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the cooker is wired in and switched on.
The cooker needs electricity.
Peculiar smells
When you first use your cooker it may give off a slight odour. This should stop after a little use.

Preheat the griddle for a
maximum of 5 minutes before
adding food. Leaving it longer
may cause damage. The controls
can be turned to a lower position
simply by turning the control knobs
towards the lower position marked
with the small flame symbol.
Position the griddle over the
hotplate burners resting on the
pan support. The griddle can be
lightly brushed with cooking oil
before use. Light the hotplate
burners. Adjust the flame heights to
suit.

GRIDDLE More about the griddle on page 8
Don’t put it crossways - it will
not fit properly and will be
unstable.
Don’t put it on the Wok burner - it is
not designed to fit the Wok burner
pan support.
23
The griddle fits a single pan
support, front to back. It is
designed for cooking food on
directly. Don’t use pans of any
kind on it. The griddle surface is non-
stick and metal cooking utensils (e.g.
spatulas) will damage the surface.
Use heat resistant plastic or wooden
utensils.
1
Always leave space around the
griddle for the gases to escape.
Never fit two griddles side by
side. Large pans should also be
spaced well apart. The maximum
pan base diameter is 250mm.

Warmer
Use the warmer for keeping food
warm while the final touches are put
to a meal. Turn the control knob anti-
clockwise to the on position. The
‘HOT’ indicator lights up. For best
results, pre-heat a covered serving
dish for 10 minutes before adding
food to it.

After placing your food on the
grill tray pan, slide the grill pan
onto the side supports just
below the elements. Make sure it is
pushed right in and touches the
backstop.
Remove the pan from the
bottom of the grill compartment.
For best results preheat for 2
minutes with the grill pan in
position. After placing your food
on the grill pan grid, slide the
grill pan onto the side supports.
Adjust the grill heat to suit by turning
the knob.
Make sure it is pushed right in and
touches the back stop.
The grill pan grid can be turned
over to give two grilling
positions.
The burner does not glow red -
food cooks from the heat of the
flame. The first time you light
the grill there may be a little smoke
given off - this is perfectly normal.
Press in the grill knob, turn to
the large flame symbol ( ) and
press the igniter button or light
with a match.
45The low position, marked with
the small flame symbol, is
beyond high, not between high
and off.
Never close the grill door when
the grill is on.

THE OVENS More about the oven on page 9
Dishes placed above the central
position will be cooked at
approximately 10°C higher,
dishes cooked below approximately
10°C lower. You can therefore cook
dishes requiring different
tempuratures at the same time.
5
Dishes cooking on the central
shelf will cook at the
temperature indicated on the
knob.
Push in and turn the knob
controlling the oven to the full on
position. The oven will light
automatically.
Turn the control knob back to
the temperature you wish to
cook on and for best results pre-
heat the oven for 15 minutes before
placing your dishes in it.

3The two ovens in your cooker
use the our special ‘Heatflow’
system.
Because the oven burner is not
hidden under the oven base you will
see the burner flames at the back of
the oven - this is perfectly normal.
Initially the gas will burn with a small
flame but after approximately one
minute the flame will become larger
indicating that the oven is full on.
You can use the timer to turn
the oven on and off. Check
clock is set to time of day.
To set the time of day
More about the clock on page 13
Press and hold as above. At the
same time, press (-) or (+) until the
correct time shows. Don’t forget it’s a
24 hour clock. If you make a mistake
or press the wrong button, turn off
the power supply for a minute or two
and start again.

Storage
The bottom drawer is for storing oven
trays and other cooking utensils. It
can get very warm, don’t store
anything in it which may melt or
catch fire. The drawer can be
removed completely by pulling it right
out and up.
Oven light
Press the appropriate button to turn
on one of the oven lights.
Warning - if one of the oven lights
fail, turn off the power supply
before you change the bulb to
avoid the possibility of electric
shock. See the ‘Troubleshooting’
section for details on how to
change an oven light bulb.

The hotplate burners
You should read ‘hotplate burners’ in the ‘2
Minute Tour’ before all the following
information
If a burner flame goes out, turn the control knob
off and leave it for one minute before relighting it.
You can remove the burner parts for
cleaning, see page 14.
You should wipe the enamel top surface of the
cooker around the hotplate burners as soon as
possible after spills occur. Try to wipe them off
while the enamel is still warm.
Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans that
may tilt easily and pans with a very small base
diameter e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers.
The minimum pan diameter recommended is
120mm. Smaller pans will be unstable.
Pans and kettles with down turned base rims
should not be used.
The griddle
You should read ‘griddle’ in the 2 Minute Tour
before all the following information
Use the following heat settings as a guide for
griddle cooking.
High/medium:
Drop scones, Bacon, Chops, Steak, Burgers.
Medium/low:
Potato cakes, Eggs, Fish cakes.
Experience will soon familiarise you with the
correct setting to use for cooking.
After cooking allow the griddle to cool before
cleaning.
Don’t put it on the Wok burner - it is not designed
to fit the Wok burner pan support.
The Warmer
The Warmer can be used for keeping food warm
while the final touches are put to a meal. For
best results preheat a covered serving dish for
10 minutes on the Warmer before adding the
food.
Turn the control knob clockwise to the 'On'
position. The 'HOT' indication light glows on the
Warmer.
CAUTION:- If a crack in the Warmer surface
becomes visible, due to accidental damage etc.,
isolate the appliance from the electricity supply
immediately by turning it off at the wall and
arrange for its repair.
DONOT RECONNECT THE COOKER TO THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY UNTIL AFTER REPAIR!
The grill
You should read ‘grill’ in the 2 Minute Tour’
before all the following information
Never close the grill door while the grill is
on.
Don’t leave the grill on for more than a few
moments, without the grill pan underneath it.
For best results, especially on toast, preheat the
grill with the grill pan in the cooking position for
two minutes before use.
The grill trivet can be removed and the food
placed on it while you are waiting for the grill
to preheat.
The grill pan grid can be turned over to give two
grilling positions.

The ovens
You should read ‘the oven’ in the
‘2 Minute Tour’ before all the following
information
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly
to the back of the oven.
Baking trays with food cooking on them should
be placed level with the front edge of the oven’s
wire shelves. Other containers should be placed
centrally. Keep all trays and containers away
from the back of the oven, as overbrowning of
the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended
size of a baking tray is 320mm (12 l/2") by
305mm (12").
When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open
for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs
may get very hot.
Both ovens are protected by a safety cut off,
which reduces the supply of gas to the oven if
the flames go out, e.g. an interruption to the
mains supply.
• Always leave a ‘fingers width’ between dishes
on the same shelf This allows the heat to
circulate freely around them.
•
Plates can be warmed in the ovens on the ‘S’
setting. The ‘S’ setting can be used to keep
foods hot for 3-4 hours after ‘normal’ cooking,
without drying out or overbrowning.
• The self cleaning oven liners (see Cleaning
your cooker) work better when fat splashes
are avoided. Cover meat when cooking.
• To reduce fat splashing when you add
vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them
thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.
• Sufficient heat rises out of the oven while
cooking to warm plates in the grill
compartment.
• If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish,
preheat the baking tray for 15 minutes before
placing the dish in the centre of the tray.
• Where dishes may boil and spill over during
cooking, place them on a baking tray.
Oven shelves
the shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards
The oven shelves can be easily removed and
refitted.
To refit the shelf, line up the shelf with a groove
in the oven side and push the shelf back until the
ends hit the shelf stop. Lift up the front so the
shelf ends clear the shelf stops, and then lower
the front so that the shelf is level and push it fully
back.

The Handyrack
The Handyrack should only be used with the
supplied meat tin, which is designed to fit the
Handyrack. Any other vessel could be
unstable.
The maximum weight which can be held by the
Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb).
Food cooking on it is easy to attend to, because
it’s accessible when the door is open. It can be
fitted at two different heights. One of the oven
shelves must be removed and the other
positioned to suit.
When the Handyrack is used in its highest
position, other dishes can be cooked on the
bottom shelf position of the oven.
When the Handyrack is used in its lowest
position, other dishes can be cooked on the
second shelf position of the oven or standing on
the base of the oven.
The Handyrack fits to the left hand oven door
only.
To fit the Handyrack, locate one side of it on the
door bracket.
The oven control settings and
cooking times given opposite are
intended to be used only as a
guide. Individual tastes may
require the temperature to be
altered to provide a preferred
result.
Always leave at least one runner
space between shelves when 2 tier
cooking. Place baking trays,
individual cake tins or baking
dishes centrally on the oven shelf.
For best results pre-heat the oven
for 15mins.
Then spring the other side out to clip it onto the
other bracket.

For stuffed poultry, you could
cook at 220°C for 20mins. and
then 180°C for remainder. Don’t
forget to include the weight of the
stuffing. For fresh or frozen
prepacked poultry, follow
instructions on the pack.
Thoroughly thaw frozen poultry
before cooking.
When two tier cooking leave at
least one runner space between
shelves. Position the baking tray
with the front edge along the
front of the oven shelf.
Rich fruit cakes made with self-
raising flour should be cooked on
190°C for the first half hour at
least and then finished at the
setting shown.
If cooking more than one tart at
the same time, swap them over
at approx. 25 mins. For even
browning the maximum size of
baking tray recommended is
320mm x 305mm. This ensures
free heat circulation.
If cooking a two tier load, when
the top tray is removed, the tray
in the lower position should be
raised to the higher shelf, or the
trays interchanged, for the
remaining cooking time.
Thoroughly thaw frozen joints
before cooking. Meat may be
roasted at 235°C and the
cooking time adjusted
accordingly. For stuffed and
rolled meats, add approx. 10
min. per 500g. or cook at 220°C
or 20min, then 180°C for the
remainder.

Australia
Cooking using the timer
The timer can be used to turn just one oven or
both on and off automatically. The start and stop
time must be the same for both ovens but
different cooking temperatures can be set.
If you want to turn one of the ovens on at
the same time as the timer is set for
automatic cooking, you must wait until the
timer has turned on the oven/ ovens first.
Then you can adjust either of them manually
in the normal way.
You can set the oven to turn on any time over
the following 24 hour period
If you want to cook more than one dish,
choose dishes which require approximately
the same time. However, dishes can be
‘slowed down’ slightly by using small
containers and covering them with
aluminium foil, or ‘speeded up’ slightly by
cooking smaller quantities or placing in
larger containers.
Very perishable foods such as pork or fish
should be avoided if a long delay period is
planned, especially in hot weather.
Don’t place warm food in the oven.
Don’t use an oven already warm.
Don’t use if an adjoining oven is warm.
Avoid using wine or beer if there is a delay
period, as fermentation may take place.
To avoid curdling, cream should be added
to dishes just before serving.
Fresh vegetables which may discolour during a
delay period should be coated in melted fat or
immersed in a water and lemon juice solution.
Many frozen foods are ideal for delayed
cooking and can be placed in the oven while
still frozen.
Fruit pies, custard tarts or similar wet mixtures
on top of uncooked pastry are only satisfactory if
there is a short delay period. Dishes containing
leftover cooked meat or poultry should not be
cooked automatically if there is a delay period.
Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted
before placing in the oven.
Check that meat and poultry are fully
cooked before serving.

Cleaning your cooker
Essential information
Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity
supply. Remember to switch on the electricity
supply before use.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda,
caustic cleaners, biological powders,
bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners,
coarse abrasives or salt. Don’t mix
different cleaning products - they may
react together with hazardous results.
Recommended cleaning materials are
shown in the chart below.
If you want to move your cooker for cleaning,
see the section called ‘Moving your cooker’.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot
soapy water - but take care that no surplus
water seeps into the appliance.
‡ Indicates how to clean after the oven linings
have been removed. See the oven cleaning
section for how to remove the oven linings.
* VEA is the Vitreous Enamel Association.
Hotplate burners
Some models have a separate trim ring, which
fits on the burner head.
The burner heads and caps can be removed for
cleaning. Make sure they are absolutely dry
before replacing.
The LH hotplate
A cap, B head, C notch, D base, E electrode
When refitting the burner head, make sure that
the notch lines up with the electrode or hole in
the base. Check that the burner head is level
and that the cap is fitted centrally on the burner
head.
The Wok burner
The Wok burner is a little more complicated but it
also can be taken apart for cleaning.

When reassembling the Wok burner, turn over
the large base ring and find the ‘D’ shaped area.
burner base underside of burner head
Turn the head until the ‘D’ matches the one on
the burner base. Turn the head over and place it
on the burner base. To fit the small inner burner,
find the larger electrode notch in the burner rim.
Line this up with the white ignition electrode and
place the inner burner on the large base ring.
A electrode notch B ignitionelectrode
Now fit the two trim rings, making sure that they
are sitting down properly.
Griddle
Always clean the griddle after use. Allow to cool
completely before removing. Immerse the griddle
plate in hot soapy water. Use a soft cloth or, for
stubborn stains, a nylon washing up brush.
NEVER USE CAUSTIC OR ABRASIVE
CLEANERS AS THESE WILL DAMAGE THE
SURFACE.
Grill
The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot
soapy water. After grilling meats or any foods
that soil, leave to soak for a few minutes in the
sink immediately after use. Stubborn particles
may be removed from the grid by using a nylon
brush.
Control Panel and Doors
Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including
cream cleaners, e.g. Jif, on brushed Stainless
Steel surfaces. For best results use a liquid
detergent.
The control panel and control knobs should only
be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean
hot soapy water - but take care that no surplus
water seeps into the appliance. Wipe with a
clean dampened cloth then polish with a dry
cloth. The oven doors should only be cleaned
with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy
water.
Stainless Steel Cookers with window doors
If the inside face of the glass on window door
model becomes marked, the oven door front
panel can be taken off so that the glass panels
can be cleaned.
Move the cooker forward to gain access to the
sides (see the ‘Moving the cooker’ section of
these instructions).
Open the oven door slightly and remove the front
panel fixing screws from the door sides (two
each side).
stainless steel window doors only
Carefully lift off the outer door panel. The inside
face of the glass panels can now be cleaned -
take care not to disturb or wet the door
insulation. Please note that the door is triple
glazed but the inner two panels are fixed and
should not be separated. After cleaning carefully
refit the outer door panel and replace the side
fixing screws.

16
Australia
The Ovens
Cleaning is easier if carried out while the oven is
still warm. Before cleaning, cover the burner to
prevent the burner holes becoming blocked.
The inside of the oven and inner door panel can
be cleaned using any cleaner suitable for enamel
surfaces.
Take care not to disturb the oven thermostat
temperature sensor at the top of the oven
opening.
The enamelled oven burner trim (supplied with
some models only) can be removed for cleaning.
The oven burner trim hooks onto the front of the
oven burner bracket.
When refitting make sure that the trim is in the
middle of the front of the oven burner bracket.
The Oven side linings
The oven has removable oven side lining panels
that have been coated with special enamel that
partly cleans itself. This does not stop all marks
on the lining, but helps to reduce the amount of
manual cleaning needed.
The self cleaning panels work better
above 220°C. If you do most of your
cooking below this temperature,
occasionally remove the panels and wipe
with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water.
The panels should then be dried and
replaced and the oven heated at 235°C
for about one hour. This will ensure the
self cleaning panels are working
effectively.
Don’t use steel wool (Brillo) or any other
materials that will scratch the surface. Don’t use
oven cleaning pads.
Before cleaning the oven, cover the burner at the
rear to stop the holes getting blocked as you
clean. If they are accidentally blocked, clean
them out with thin wire, such as fuse wire.
Removing the Oven Linings
The lining panels can be removed for cleaning
and for cleaning behind. Remove the shelves
first.
Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing
screws. You don’t have to remove the screws to
remove the oven linings. Lift each side panel
upwards and they will slide off the screws. Then
pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel
interior can be cleaned.

Australia
Moving your cooker
Switch off the electricity supply.
The cooker is heavy, two people may be
required to move it. The cooker is fitted with
one roller at the front and two at the back.
There are also two screw down levelling feet
at the front.
The front roller, designed for moving the cooker
can be wound down. The levelling tool which
controls this roller is in the storage drawer
compartment.
Remove the storage drawer (by pulling it
right out and lifting it up slightly) and you
should see the levelling tool.
Your installer may not have left the levelling tool
in place. If not, locate it as shown. If you cannot
find the levelling tool, contact your installer. See
the front of the Installation section of these
instructions.
Turn the levelling tool clockwise, two full
(180°) turns. It will be stiff. The front of the
oven will rise slightly as the roller drops
down.
Open the grill door and right hand oven door so
that you can get a good grip on the bottom of the
fascia panel as you move the oven.
Do not move the oven by pulling the hand
rail, door handles or knobs.
Move the oven a bit at a time, checking behind it
to make sure the gas hose is not caught. Make
sure both electricity and gas cables have
sufficient slack to move the cooker forward as
you go along.
A restraining chain should have been fitted
by your installer. This is intended to prevent
stressing the connection hose and will limit
the amount the cooker can move forward.
When you replace the cooker, wind it down off
the rollers by turning the levelling tool anti-
clockwise. This is important. It will stop the
cooker moving accidentally, while in use.

Troubleshooting
Food is cooking too slowly, too quickly, or burning
Cooking times may differ from your previous oven. The oven control settings and
cooking times are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the
oven temperature to be altered either way, to get the results you want. Try cooking at a
higher shelf position and/or higher temperature. Oven cooking times and temperatures
may need to be increased when other burners are in use. Are the oven burner ports
blocked with spilt food?
The oven is not cooking evenly
Do not use a tin or tray larger than 340mm x 305mm.
If you are cooking a large item, be prepared to turn it round during cooking.
If two shelves are used, check that space has been left for the heat to circulate. When
the baking tray is put into the oven, make sure the front edge is level with the front of the
shelf.
Check that the door seal is not damaged and that the door catch adjusted so that the
door is held firmly against the seal.
NB the seal is intended to have a gap at the bottom of the door
A dish of water when placed on the shelf should be the same depth all over. (For
example, if it is deeper at the back, then the back of the cooker should be raised up or
the front lowered). If the cooker is not level arrange for your supplier to level it for you.
Oven not coming on when turned on manually
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there may be something wrong with the
power supply. Is the clock flashing 0.00? If so set it to the correct time of day. Has the
Timer been set to AUTO by mistake? If AUTO is showing on the clock display, press the
‘cook period’ button and reduce any set cooking time showing to 0.00, with the (+) and (-)
buttons. Press the button twice. Are the burner flames starting low and then rising to
full height? If this does not solve the problem contact a service person. Are the oven
burner ports blocked with spilt food?
Oven not coming on when automatic cooking
Timer set correctly but oven knob left OFF by mistake?
Oven temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older
If turning the knob down has not worked or only worked for a short time then you may
need a new thermostat. This should be fitted by a service person.
Grill Ignition faultyIs the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there maybe something wrong with the
power supply. See ‘power supply’ section further on.

Troubleshooting
Grill not cooking properly
Are you using the pan and trivet supplied with the cooker? Is the pan being used on the
runners, not the floor of the compartment? Is the grill tray pushed fully back to stop?
Hotplate ignition or hotplate burners faulty
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there maybe something wrong with the
power supply.
See ‘power supply’ section further on.
Are the sparker (ignition electrode) or burner slots blocked by debris?
Is the burner trim correctly located?
Are the burner caps correctly located?
See the section entitled ‘Cleaning’
Hotplate burners will not light
If only one or all the hotplate burners will not light, make sure that the parts have been
replaced correctly after wiping or removing for cleaning.
Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can do this by making sure
that other gas appliances you may have are working.
Do the burners spark when you push the button? If not check the power is on - is the
clock illuminated?
The oven light is not working
The bulb has probably blown. You can buy a replacement bulb (which is not covered
under the guarantee) from a good electrical shop. Ask for an Edison screw fitting 15w
240v lamp, FOR OVENS. It must be a special bulb, heat resistant to 300 °C. See the
HELP leaflet for spares by mail order.
There is a glass cover over the bulb which has to be removed before you can replace
the bulb. Turn off the power supply.
Unscrew the bulb cover by turning anticlockwise and unscrew the bulb. Screw in the new
bulb and refit the bulb cover.
Power supply. You think there may be a problem with it
First check the socket by trying out another piece of electrical equipment in it.
If that works, replace the fuse in the cooker plug. Use a 3 amp fuse.
Power failure In the event of a failure in the electrical supply the grill and hotplate may be lit using a
match. The oven however cannot be used either manually or automatically until power is
restored.
Oven ignition faulty
Is the power on? Is the clock running? - if not there may be something wrong with the
power supply.
See the section on ‘Checking the power supply’.
Check that the electrode and burner slots are not blocked by debris.
Has the Timer been set to auto by mistake, or after power cut?
Has the Timer been set correctly but oven tap not left OFF by mistake?

claim.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the
production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is
well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes
open or install a mechanical ventilation device,
(mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may
call for additional ventilation, for example
opening a window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present.
The cooker should be serviced by a Authorised
Person and only approved spare parts used.
Have the installer show you the location of the
cooker control switch. Mark it for easy reference.
Always allow the cooker to cool and then switch
off at the mains and before cleaning or carrying
out any maintenance work, unless specified
otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the cooker become hot with use
and will retain heat even after you have
stopped cooking.
Take care when touching cooker, to minimize the
possibility of burns, always be certain that the
controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool
before attempting to clean the cooker. Avoid
touching heating elements.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable -
using damp gloves might result in steam
burns when you touch a hot surface. Never
operate the cooker with wet hands.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place
of a glove. They might catch fire if they touch a
hot surface.
Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth
