Safety
Cooker development has progressed rapidly. You cannot always use your new cooker in the
same way as your old one. For this reason, you should read the instructions carefully and
familiarise yourself with your new cooker and what it can do. The cooker is intended for
normal household use. Please let us know if you have views or questions about your cooker
and its use. You can find our address and telephone number in the “Service” chapter.
Text marked with a WARNING TRIANGLE concerns safety. READ THIS TEXT VERY
CAREFULLY , so that you do not injure yourself or others, or damage the cooker.
Unpacking
Check that the cooker is in perfect
condition and not damaged. You must
notify the dealer immediately of any
damage that has occurred during
transport. For direct deliveries, any
transport damage must be notified to
Customer Services within seven days
according to the freight note.
The packaging can be recycled. Contact
your local authority if you do not know
where you can deposit it.
Do not forget to remove packing material
from inside the oven before it is used.
Installation
Any work required on the cooker must be
carried out by a
QUALIFIED EXPERT . Any
work carried out by non-qualified people
can mean poorer cooker performance and
result in personal injury and/or damage to
property.
For cookers with a plug: Make sure
that the plug is completely pushed into
the mains socket.
The cooker is heavy. Edges and
corners with which you do not normally
come into contact, can be sharp. Use
gloves when moving the cooker.
THE ANTI - TIP GUARD must be fitted so
that you avoid the cooker tipping when
subjected to abnormal loading.
IMPORTANT! Do not place the cooker
on an extra plinth or other height-
increasing unit. This meansmore risk that
the cooker will tip over!
Children and the cooker
Children are by nature curious and
interested in most things, even cookers.
In the interests of safety, we should like to
mention a few things that you should
think about if you have children or
children come to visit:
There must bea clear surface of at least
40 cm (16") on both sides of the cooker.
If you have a
HEATING PLATE GUARD for
your cooker, then this must be fitted.
THE
DOOR LOCK must also function properly.
Never allow children to use the blade-
scraper.
Let children help you at the cooker,
but teach them that pots and pans, hobs
and ovens become very hot and retain
heat for some time after use.
TOUCHING
THEM CAN RESULT IN BURNS .
How to use
The appliance get hot during use. Do not
touch the hob or the heatingelements
inside the oven when the appliance is in
use. Never use a cracked ceramic glass
plate. Liquids could, if they boil over, or
during cleaning, penetrate down into the
live electrical components. Switch off the

5
power supply to the cooker and contact
Service for repairs.
Never place metal objects such as
lids, knives and spoons on the hob. They
become hot if a heating zone is switched
on by mistake.
Never leave a deep fat fryer, melting
fat, paraffin or other easily flammable
substance unattended. In the event of fire,
turn off the cooker knobs and switch off
the fan.
EXTINGUISH THE FIRE WITH A POT
LID , never use water.
Use only pans intended for use with
an induction hob or oven.
Check the bottoms of pots and pans.
Pans which bulge outwards tend to swivel
easily on the ceramic glass hob.
Check that the cooker is switched off
when not in use. All the knobs should be
turned to zero.
Warning! Alcohol and similar
substances, which can form explosive
gases,or othersubstances that cancause a
fire or explosion must not be used in the
oven.
The ceramic glass plate must be used
with the greatest care. For example,
flaming with brandy or other forms of
alcohol can result in traces of fat in the
fan igniting and causing serious fires.
Similarly, flames and burning fat spills
can cause injury to people.
Do not keep chemicals or cleaning
agents in the storage drawer.
Cleaning
Keep the ceramic glass hob and oven
clean. Fat and spilled material can cause
much smoke when heated and are also a
possible fire hazard.
Immediately after use (while the plate
is still hot) clean with the blade scraper to
remove sugar and spills with a high sugar
content, such as marmalade, and also any
melted plastic or foil, in order to avoid
damage to the hob. Be careful, the blade
scraper is extremely sharp.
Maintenance and service
Turn all knobs to zero before replacing a
defective oven light bulb.
Service and repairs should only be
carried out by a repair company approved
by the supplier. Use only genuine spare
parts.

Installation
Any work required on the cooker
must be carried out by a
QUALIFIED
EXPERT . The cooker is heavy. Edges
and corners, with which you do not
normally come into contact, can be
sharp.
U SE GLOVES WHEN MOVING
THE COOKER .
When delivered, the cooker is adjusted to a
bench height of 900 mm (35.4"). The cooker
has a telescopic plinth. You can change the
height so that the cooker suits a bench height
from 848 mm (33.4") up to 933 mm (36.7").
Take care when positioning the cooker
that you do not block the ventilation outlets
(behind the cooker and at the top behind the
hood), the cooker must not be pushed in
under a tiled edge or similar.
The cooker must have a clearance on both
sides (see Safety).
Make sure that the cooker cable does not
get crushed when moving the cooker.

Adjusting the height of the base
If you wish to adjust the height, please read
the following points before you start.
1Lay down the cooker gently
(
SEE ILLUSTRATION ). Use, for example,
the polystyrene from the packaging
between the cooker and the floor as
protection. Remember to locate a
protective layer under the lower rear
corners of the cooker sides to protect
the floor.
2Unscrew the screws A (4
SCREWS , SEE
ILLUSTRATION ). Pull out the inner base
slightly if you only wish to change the
height. Pull the brackets on which the
wheels and feet are fitted. NOTE! Be
careful, there are sharp edges underthe
cooker.
3Screw in the screws again A in one of
the holes for a bench height of 850 to
920 mm (33.4" to 36.2"). The distance
between the holes varies between
7 mm (0.28") and 14 mm (0.51")
(see illustration a).
4Lift the cooker upright and connect it
up to the mains. Push the cooker back
into position and make sure that it is
absolutely level before fitting the
safety equipment.
Horizontal adjustment
The cooker must be level so that, for
example, fat spreads evenly in the frying pan.
Place a spirit level or a frying pan containing
water on the ceramic glass plate when you
want to check whether the cooker is level.
If necessary, from the front of the plinth,
you can adjust the cooker wheels and feet by
15 mm (0.6"). Use a screwdriver to adjust the
rear wheels and a Polygrip for the front feet.

The anti-tip guard
The anti-tip guard must be fitted to
prevent the cooker from tipping over
with abnormal loads.
The anti-tip guard only works
when the cooker has been pushed
into place.
HOW YOU FIX THE ANTI - TIP GUARD
TO THE COOKER :
1Before fitting the anti-tip guard,
make surethat the cooker has been
adjusted to the correct height and
is standing level (see page 7).
2The attachment (B) is fitted to the
left side when delivered. Measure
out where the anti-tip guard (A) is
to be located, 60 mm (2.4") down
from the edge of the ceramic glass
plate and 50 mm (2.0") from the
wall(cupboard). Screw it firmly
into solid material or use suitable
reinforcement. The entire anti-tip
guard (A+B) can also be located
on the right-hand side (
SEE F IG . 1).
Make sure that the surface
behind the cooker is smooth.
If there are tiles or a moulding
behind the edge of the ceramic
glass plate then there must be a
space with the same dimension
between the anti-tip guard and
the wall. This is so that the anti-
tip guard is firmly attached to
the cooker and functions
correctly.
Check that the anti-tip guard
projects at least 20 mm (0.8")
into the hole in the back of the
cooker (B) when the cooker is
pushed in (
SEE F IG . 2).
NOTE! If the space between the bench
cupboards is greater than the width of the
cooker, then you must adjust the side
measurement if you want to centre the
cooker..

Electrical connections
Any work required on the cooker must
be carried out by a
QUALIFIED EXPERT .
Any work carried out by non-qualified
people can mean poorer cooker
performance and result in personal
injury and/or damage to property.
The electrical installation is to include a
device whereby it is possible to separate all
the poles of the equipment from the power
supply, with a contact opening of at least
3 mm.
This requirement must be satisfied for
safety reasons.
The connected rating and voltage are
shown on the data plate. There is a wiring
diagram on the back of the cooker.
Decor plinth (optional accessory)
NOTE! Take due care when fitting
the base trim to the cooker. Edges
with which you do not normally come
into contact with can be sharp.
NOTE ! ONLY FITS COOKERS WITH A HEIGHT
OF 900 MM (35.5").
Remove the protective plastic before use.
1Remove the drawer from the cooker by
lifting it diagonally upwards and then
pulling it all the way out.
2 Fit the base trim by pressing it firmly
onto the base (snap fastener, no tools
needed).
3 Re-fit the storage drawer.
