Thank you for choosing a British
built appliance by Belling
We hope that the following information
will help you to familiarise yourself
with the features of the appliance, and
to use it successfully and safely.
Our policy is one of constant development
& improvement. Strict accuracy of
illustrations and specifications is not
guaranteed. Modification to design
and materials may be necessary
subsequent to publication.
This appliance must be installed in
accordance with the regulations in
force, and only in a well ventilated
space. Read the instructions before
installing or using this appliance.
Your new appliance is designed to be
installed flush to base units.
Your 1st Year Guarantee
To fulfil the conditions of your guarantee,
this appliance must be correctly
installed and operated, in accordance
with these instructions, and only be
used for normal domestic purposes.
Please note that the guarantee, and
Service availability, only apply to the
UK and Republic of Ireland.
Stability bracket
If the cooker is to be fitted with a flexible
inlet connection, a stability bracket
should also be fitted to engage in the
back of the cooker. Make sure this is
re-engaged whenever you move the
cooker for cleaning.
Gas & Electrical connection
Please refer to installation instructions
for the Gas & Electrical Safety Regulations
and the Ventilation Requirements.
In your own interest, and that of safety,
it is the law that all gas appliances be
installed by competent persons, who
will e n s u r e that the installation is in
accordance with “The Gas Safety
(Installation & Use) Regulations 1994”,
and the “The Gas Safety (Installation
and Use) (Amendment) R e g u l a t i o n s
1996”. Failure to comply with these
Regulations is a criminal offence.

Glass door panels
To meet the relevant Standards of
Domestic cooking appliances, all the
glass panels on this appliance are
toughened to meet the fragmentation
requirements of BS3193. This ensures
that, in the unlikely event that a panel
breaks, it does so into small fragments
to minimise the risk of injury.
Please take care when handling, using
or cleaning all glass panels as any
damage to the surfaces or edges may
result in the glass breaking without
warning or apparent cause at a later
date. Should any glass panel be
damaged, we strongly recommend
that it is replaced immediately.
The cooling fan
When the appliance is switched on,
you may hear the cooling fan come
on. This keeps the fascia and control
knobs cool during grilling / cooking
and will continue to operate for up to
15 minutes after the appliance has
been switched off.
During oven use the fan may cycle on
and off. Should any fault occur with the
cooling fan, the appliance will require
servicing. Contact Customer Support.
Ventilation
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 of a
window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
If the ignition fails:
•Check there is a spark when the
ignition button is depressed. If there
is no spark, check that the electricity
supply is switched on at the socket.
• Check that the gas supply is
switched on.
• Try another appliance in the socket,
if that works, replace the 3 amp
fuse in the cooker plug.

BE SAFE - NOT SORRY
25388 02 Format G754 Belling 1/7/05 9:03 AM Page 7

Ignition
Push in and turn the selected control
knob anticlockwise to the ‘full on’ position
and press the ignition switch, or hold
a lighted match or taper to the burner,
until the burner lights. Turn the control
knob to the required setting.
Adjust the burner flame so that it does
not extend over the pan base.
To turn off, push in the control knob
and turn clockwise until the dot on the
control knob is below the dot on the
facia panel.
To simmer
The simmer position is marked by the
small flame symbol.
Once lit turn the selected control knob
a n t i c l o c k w i s e past the large flame
symbol (FULL ON) to the small flame
symbol.
You may hear a slight popping noise
when the hob burners are operating
and this is quite normal, but if anything
about the cooker appears unusual,
such as change in flame appearance,
or the operation of controls - seek
expert advice.
Pans
For optimum safety and performance, we
recommend the use of flat bottomed pans
with a base diameter of minimum 100mm
(4”) and maximum 250mm (10”).
Do not use double pans, rim based
pans, old misshapen pans or any pan
which is unstable when placed on a
flat surface.
Position pans over the centre of the
burners, resting on the pan supports.
If positioned off centre, smaller pans
may be unstable.
When cooking with fat or oil, never
leave unattended.
Turn pan handles to a safe position,
so they are out of reach of children,
not overhanging the appliance, and
cannot be caught accidentally.
Commercial simmering aids should
not be used as they create excessive
temperatures that can damage the
surface and may cause a hazard.
Pan supports
Always make sure the pan supports
are replaced correctly, and located in
the hob spillage well.

USING THE HOB
25388 02 Format G754 Belling 1/7/05 9:03 AM Page 8

7
To save gas
•Use the size of pan most suited to
the size of the burner - ie; larger
pans on the larger burners, smaller
pans on the smaller burners.
•Adjust the flames so that they do
not lick up the sides of the pan.
• Put lids on saucepans and only heat
the amount of liquid you need.
• When liquids boil, reduce the control
setting to maintain a simmer.
•Consider the use of a pressure
cooker for the cooking of a
complete meal.
•Potatoes and vegetables will cook
quicker if chopped into smaller pieces.
The fold down lid
Caution: Glass lids may shatter when
heated. Turn off all the burners before
shutting the lid.
When opening and closing the lid, use
the cooler outer sides of the lid trim.
The lid must be opened fully, so there
is no danger of it closing while the hob
is being used.
The appliance is fitted with a switch-
back system, which will automatically
turn off the hotplate controls if they are
inadvertently left on as the lid is closed.
The lid is not intended to be used as a
work surface, as it becomes hot when
any part of the cooker is in use, and
the surface may be scratched if items
with rough or sharp surfaces are
placed on it.
USING THE HOB
25388 02 Format G754 Belling 1/7/05 9:03 AM Page 9

Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the grill is used -
young children should be kept
away.
Important: The top oven / grill door
must be fully open when the grill is used.
Ignition
Open the top oven / grill door. Push
in and turn the top oven / grill control
knob clockwise to the ‘FULL ON’ position
and press the ignition s w i t c h until the
burner lights.
In the event of the grill burner flames
being accidentally extinguished, turn
off the burner control and do not
attempt to re-ignite the oven burner for
at least one minute.
To switch off, push in the control knob
and turn anticlockwise to return it to
the off position.
Preheating
For best cooked results, we
recommend that you preheat the
grill for about 3 minutes.
Shelf positions
On a higher shelf position, the grill
gives coverage over the area directly
beneath the grill burner.
Use a higher shelf position for thinner
foods and faster grilling. These shelf
positions are suitable for toasting
bread.
Use the l o w e r shelf positions for
grilling thick portions of food, or for
slower grilling. The lower shelf
positions are suitable for grilling all
types of meat and fish.
Using aluminium foil
Using aluminium foil to cover the grill
pan, or putting items wrapped in foil
under the grill creates a fire hazard.
