2) 3.00 kW rapid burner
3) 1.80 kW semi-rapid burners
4) 1.00 kW auxiliary burner
6) 3.80 kW triple crown (wok) burner
Before first use
IMPORTANT: You should clean the hob surface (see
“Cleaning and maintenance” section).
oYou should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes
at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new
smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on
the heating elements during transit.
oDo not burn off more than one zone at once.
oYou must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on
each zone as you burn it off.
Lighting a burner
oPress the relevant burner dial and rotate anticlockwise to the
large flame icon. Release the dial and the burner will
automatically ignite.
12

oMatches can also be used to light the burner during a power cut.
Simply follow the previous step but place a lit match to the
burner as you press the dial. Once lit, keep the dial pressed for
about ten seconds.
WARNING: Extra care should be taken when lighting a burner
with matches. There is a risk of burning as the cooking zone
ignites so take necessary precautions.
Optimum use of the burners
oIn order to achieve maximum results with the minimum
consumption of gas, it is important to adjust the flame according
to your needs and to use the appropriate size pans (see table
below).
oWhen the contents of a pan begin to boil it is recommended that
you adjust the dial to the small flame position.
oAlways place a lid on the pan in use.
Burner Diameter of pan (cm)
Triple crown 22 – 24
Rapid 20 – 22
Semi-rapid 16 – 18
Auxiliary 12 - 14
oAlways remember to turn the control knob to OFF when cooking
is completed.
oThe appliance is equipped with pan supports (1), on which the
wok support (2) must be placed. To ensure stability, position the
notch (A) of the wok support on the pan support fingers as
indicated in the diagram above.
13

Hob guidelines
oThe first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid,
burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated
use.
oThe worktop is fitted with cooking areas of different diameter
and power.
oThe positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked
on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on
these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the
same diameter as the cooking zone that they are being used on.
oYou should not use saucepans with rough bottoms, as this can
scratch the surface.
oBefore use, make sure that the bottoms of the saucepans are
clean and dry.
oWhen cold, the bottom of the pans should be slightly concave, as
they expand when hot and lie flat on the surface of the hob. This
will allow the heat to transfer more easily.
oThe best thickness for the bottom of the pans is 2 – 3 mm of
enamelled steel and 4 – 6 mm for stainless steel with sandwich
type bottoms.
oIf these rules are not followed, then there will be a great loss of
heat and energy. Heat not absorbed by the saucepan, will spread
to the hob, frame and surrounding cabinets.
oPreferably cover pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower
heat.
oAlways cook vegetables and potatoes, etc. in as little water as
possible to reduce cooking times.

15
oFood or liquid that has a high sugar content may damage the
hob top if it comes into contact with the hob surface. Any
spillages should be wiped up immediately, however this may not
prevent the hob surface from becoming damaged.
oIMPORTANT: The hob surface is tough; however it is not
unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or hard
objects are allowed to fall on it with some force.
oDO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN
OR CRACKED. YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE BAUMATIC
SERVICE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY.
Using the oven
Before first use
oTo remove any residue from the oven that may have been left
from the manufacturing process, you should select either the
main or grill oven function and turn the thermostat dial to its
maximum temperature setting.
oIt is perfectly normal for a smell to be produced during this
process.
oYou should make sure that any windows in the room are left
open during this process.
oIt is advisable for you not to remain in the room whilst the
burning off process is taking place.
oYou should leave each oven on maximum setting for 30 – 40
minutes.
oIMPORTANT: You should not burn off both ovens
simultaneously.
oAfter both cavities have cooled, they should then be cleaned with
warm soapy water, using either a sponge or soft cloth. No
abrasive cleaners should be used.
oOuter parts of the oven should be cleaned with warm soapy
water, using either a sponge or soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners
should be used.
oWe would recommend that an appropriate stainless steel cleaner
and polish is regularly used on the stainless steel surfaces of this
appliance.

Using the main oven
oYou can rotate this dial anti-
clockwise to select the fixed electric
grill function.
oYou can also turn the dial clockwise
to switch on the gas oven and then
proceed to set the oven
temperature.
REMEMBER: When using the grill function, it is important to
place a drip pan at the base of the oven cavity to collect any
juices which may drip down (see image below).
The oven walls are fitted with various guide bars on which you can
place an oven shelf or a drip tray (see image below).

Base burner appliances
IMPORTANT: Your appliance is a Continental style/base burner gas
oven, please follow the guidance below, to achieve the best cooking
results.
oThere are two different types of heating methods for gas ovens,
traditional U.K. style and Continental style.
oIn U.K. style gas ovens, the hot air moves around the oven and
the hottest part of the cavity is at the top.
oIn Continental style gas ovens, the heat source is underneath
the base of the oven, which means that the hottest part of the
cavity is at the bottom.
oYour oven is a Continental style gas oven, which may require
some adjustment in your cooking method, if you are used to a
U.K. style gas oven.
oWe would recommend that you place the enamelled baking tray
into the lowest shelf position.
oThis will deflect some of the fierce heat generated by the base
burner away from the food that you are cooking.
oThis will allow food to cook all of the way through, without
getting burnt on the base.
oYou may also need to make small adjustments to the cooking
temperature and cooking times that you normally used
previously.

18
Cooking guidelines
oPlease refer to the information given on food packaging for
guidance on cooking temperatures and times. Once familiar with
the performance of your appliance, temperatures and times can
be varied to suit personal preference.
oMake sure that frozen foods are thoroughly thawed before
cooking, unless the instructions on the food packaging advise
that you can “cook from frozen”.
oYou should pre-heat the oven and not place food inside of it until
it is properly heated.
oBefore cooking, check that any unused accessories are removed
from the oven.
oPlace cooking trays in the centre of the oven and leave gaps
between the trays to allow air to circulate.
oTry to open the door as little as possible to view the dishes.
Warnings
oKeep the oven door closed when using either the grill or oven
functions.
oDuring cooking, never place pans or cookware directly onto the
bottom of the oven. They should always be placed on the shelves
provided.
oThe grill heating element becomes extremely hot during
operation, avoid touching it inadvertently when handling the
food which you are grilling.
oImportant: Be careful when opening the door, to avoid contact
with hot parts and steam.
oIMPORTANT: In case of fire, close the main valve of the gas
supply and switch off the electricity supply to the appliance.
NEVER pour water onto burning oil.
oNEVER try to extinguish a fire with water. Switch off the
appliance and then cover the flame with a lid or a fire blanket.
For general cooking guides for each of the ovens, please see the tables
on the following page.

Cooking guide for the main oven
Cooking tips for cakes and bread
oHeat the oven for at least 15 minutes before you start cooking
bread or cakes.
oDo not open the door during baking because the cold air will stop
the yeast from rising.
oWhen the cake is cooked turn the oven off and leave it in for about
10 minutes.
oDo not use the enamelled baking tray or drip pan to cook cakes in.
oTo test if a cake is cooked, about 5 minutes before the end of
cooking time, put a cake tester or skewer in the highest part of the
cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is cooked.
oIf the cake sinks, next time use less liquid or lower the temperature
by 10°C.
oIf the cake is too dry, make some tiny holes with a toothpick and
pour some drops of fruit juice or spirits on it. The next time,
increase the temperature by 10°C and set a shorter cooking time.
oIf the cake is too dark on top next time put the cake on a lower
shelf and cook it at a lower temperature for longer.
oIf the top of the cake is burnt, cut off the burnt layer and cover with
sugar or decorate with cream, jam and confectioner’s cream.
oIf the cake is too dark underneath next time place it on a higher
shelf and cook it at a lower temperature.
oIf the cake or bread is cooked nicely outside but is still uncooked
inside, next time use less liquid and cook at a lower temperature for
longer.
oIf the cake will not come out of the tin, slide a knife around the
edges, place a damp cloth over the cake and turn the tin upside
down. Next time, grease the tin well and sprinkle with flour or
bread crumbs.
oIf the biscuits will not come away from the baking tray, put the tray
back in the oven for a while and lift the biscuits up before they cool.
The next time use a sheet of baking parchment to prevent this
happening again.

Cooking tips for meat
oIf, when cooking meat, the time needed is more than 40 minutes,
turn the oven off 10 minutes before the end of cooking time to
exploit the residual heat and save energy.
oYour roast will be juicer if cooked in a closed pan. It will be crispier
if cooked without a lid.
oNormally white meat, poultry and fish need medium temperatures
(less than 200°C).
oTo cook “rare” red meats, high temperatures (over 200°C) and
short cooking times are needed.
oFor a tasty roast, lard and spice the meat.
oIf your roast is tough, next time leave the meat to ripen longer.
oIf your roast is too dark on top or underneath, next time put it on a
higher or lower shelf, lower the temperature and cook for longer.
oIf your roast is undercooked, cut it in slices and arrange the slices
on a baking tray with gravy and finish cooking it.
Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning operations must only be carried out
when the oven is cool.
The appliance should be disconnected from your
mains supply before commencing any cleaning
process.
oThe oven should be thoroughly cleaned before it is operated for
the first time and after each use. This will avoid residual food
stuffs becoming baked on the oven cavity. After residues have
been baked on several times, they are far more difficult to
remove.
oNever clean the oven surfaces by steam cleaning.
oThe oven cavity should only be cleaned with warm soapy water,
using either a sponge or soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners should
be used.
oAny stains that may appear on the bottom of the oven will have
originated from food splashes or spilt food, these splashes occur
