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.

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.

SAFETY ADVICE IN CASE OF A CHIP-PAN FIRE
In the event of a chip pan fire or any other pan fire.
1. TURN OFF THE COOKER APPLIANCE AT THE WALL SWITCH.
2. COVER THE PAN WITH A FIRE BLANKET OR DAMP CLOTH, this will smother the flames and extinguish the
fire.
3. LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT. Injuries are often caused by
picking up a hot pan and rushing outside with it.
NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT A PAN FIRE as the force

Control Knobs The knobs for the hotplates can be rotated in either direction to provide variable heat control, the Main
Oven knob can only be rotated clockwise from the Off position.
Note: Always ensure that all controls are in the OFF position, when the appliance is not in
use.
The hob hot warning lights will operate soon after each of the heating areas have been switched on.
Each warning light will remain illuminated until each heating area has cooled down.
Operating the
control when
the grill is in use
In common with all cookers having controls sited above the grill compartment, care must be taken
when setting the controls, due to hot air being emitted from the grill compartment.
Main oven control This control switches on the main oven.To select Fan Cooking - Turn the control clockwise and select
any temperature between 80 °C and 230 °C. As the control is turned the fan will start, the oven interior
light and the main oven thermostat light will come on and the heating element around the fan will start
heating.The fan and the oven interior light will remain on throughout cooking.The main oven thermostat
light will come on until the oven reaches the required temperature. It will then cycle off and on as the
oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
Slow cooking ‘S’ The main oven has a ‘S’ setting specially designed to reduce energy usage. Full details of this can be
found in the Slow cooking section of this book.

Ceramic Hob
CAUTION: IF AT ANY TIME A CRACK IN THE SURFACE BECOMES VISIBLE, DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE
IMMEDIATELY FROM THE SUPPLY.
Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with the hob surface as damage can
occur.
The following boiling plates are located beneath the decorative circular patterned cooking areas:-
Front left 6 heat: 1200W
Rear left 6 heat: 1700W
Rear right 6 heat: 1200W
Front right 6 heat: 1700W
The cooking areas change colour when heated (become red) indicating which heating element is switched on. The
cooking area returns to its original colour when the heating element is switched Off.
Warning: Even though the cooking area has returned to its original colour it may still be hot.
The controls for the hotplates can be turned in either direction.
Turn the control to 6 for fast cooking. To reduce the heat to cook more slowly or simmer, turn the control to a lower
setting according to the size of the saucepan and the amount of liquid.
Pans can be placed on the unheated areas of the panel when cooking is finished and before serving food. It is
inadvisable at any time to leave a heating element switched on without a pan in position as this wastes energy, and
could make soil or rub-off from aluminium pans more difficult to remove. To protect elements against over-heating,
safety cut-outs have been incorporated with each element. After several minutes with the control at setting 6 the
safety cut-out switches the element Off and On continuously, thus preventing any adverse effects that may be
caused by an excessive build-up of heat in the cooking area.
Use of Hotplates
Note: Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with the hob surface.
Turn the control to 6 for fast cooking. To cook more slowly or simmer, turn the control to a lower setting according to
the size of the saucepan and the amount of liquid. The two small Hotplates are specially for smaller pans, low
temperature cooking and simmering.
Do Not leave a hotplate switched on without a pan as this wastes energy and may shorten the life of the hotplate.
