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.
Child Safety
 This oven is designed to be operated by adults. Do not
allow children to play near or with the oven.
 The oven gets hot when it is in use. Children should be
kept away until it has cooled.
During Use
 This oven is intended for domestic cooking only. It is not
designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

bags, to come into contact with oven elements.
 Never place plastic or any other material which may melt
in or on the oven.
 Do not place sealed cans or aerosols inside the oven.
They may explode if they are heated.
 Do not hang towels, dishcloths or clothes from the oven
or its handle.
 Do not use this oven if it is in contact with water and never
operate it with wet hands.
 Take great care when heating fats and oils as they will
ignite if they become too hot.
 Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in
the oven.
 Ensure that all control knobs are in the OFF position
when not in use.
 Do not leave cookware containing foodstuffs, e.g. fat or
oil in or on the oven in case it is inadvertently switched
ON.
 When using other electrical appliances, ensure the
cable does not come into contact with the hot surfaces
of the oven.

Grill Control Light
The Grill (thermostat) control light will come on when the
thermostat control knob is turned. The light will remain on
until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle
on and off to show the temperature is being maintained.
Gas Oven Control Knob
Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 8. Upon
ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5/10 seconds,
then turn the control knob to the gas mark you want.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero,
and try again, keeping the oven knob pushed in for a
longer time. It is possible to check the flame through the
holes in the bottom of the oven. The gas oven control knob
must not be kept pushed in for over 15 seconds. If the oven
burner does not light even after this time, release the
knob, open the oven door and wait for at least 1 minute
before trying to light the oven burner again.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is expelled
through vents between the oven door and the control
panel, as shown in the diagram.
The cooling fan may run on after the oven is switched off
to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
The Safety Thermostat (Electric
Grill)
This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case of
malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and consequent
over-heating, the safety device will stop the power supply
to the appliance. If this happens, call your local ervice
Force Centre. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

Using the Oven
Always cook with the oven door closed.
 Stand clear when opening the drop down oven
door. Do not allow it to fall open - support the
door using the door handle, until it is fully open.
 The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied
with two shelves. The shelf positions are counted
from the bottom of the oven as shown in the
diagram.
It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned as shown in the diagram.
 Do not place cookware directly on the oven
base.
The anti-tip shelf has four small metal tabs on its frame
to prevent it from sliding out from the shelf supports.

Cook are
 Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.
 Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
on the oven base.
 Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of
heat and may affect performance.
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand back from
the oven when o ening the oven door to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Hints and Tips
The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
AAluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
BEnamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium
with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark,
heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
1. Place the proper spit support in the oven.
2. Place the food in the spit and fix the forks by means
of the screws.
3. Insert the point of the spit in the motor drive hole,
which can be found in the back panel of the oven.
4. Place the outside edge of the spit on the spit
support and unscrew the handle.
5. Insert the dripping pan in the lowest level, after
pouring a little water in it.
6. Turn the function control knob to l

Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check
that they are suitable and that their use is recommended
by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
The periodic lubrication of the gas thermostat must be
carried out by qualified personnel, which you must refer
to also in case of malfunctioning.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door
seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little washing up liquid has been added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass
panels avoid the use of the following:
 Household detergent and bleaches
 mpregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans
 Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
 Chemical oven pads or aerosols
 Rust removers
 Bath/Sink stain removers
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy
water. hould the inner door glass become heavily soiled
it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite, or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass
panels are warm. f this precaution is not observed
the glass panel may shatter.
f the door glass panel becomes chipped or has
deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and
must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the
panel shattering. Contact your local Service Centre
who will be pleased to advise further.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be
necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a
proprietary oven cleaner.
Cleaning the Oven
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire,
especially in the grill pan.
Oven Shelves
To clean the oven shelves, soak in warm soapy water
and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap
impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
Oven lamp replacement
Disconnect the appliance.
Unscrew the lamp and replace it with another suitable
for higher temperatures (300°C) having the following
characteristics:
Voltage: 230-240V (50Hz)
