range by removing leveling legs, panels, wire
covers, anti-tip brackets/screws, or any other
part of the product.
To avoid personal injury, do not sit, stand or
lean on oven or broiler doors or drawer.
Leaning, sitting or stepping on the doors or
drawer of this range can result in serious
injuries and also cause damage to the range.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on any part of the range.

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65)
requires the Governor of California to publish
a list of substances known to the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers of
potential exposures to such substances.
This appliance contains or produces a chemical
or chemicals which can cause death or serious
illness and which are known to the state of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned
that the burning of gas can result in low-level
exposure to some of the listed substances,
including benzene, formaldehyde and soot, due
primarily to the incomplete combustion of natural
gas or liquid petroleum (LP) fuels. Properly
adjusted burners will minimize incomplete
combustion. Exposure to these substances
can also be minimized by properly venting the
burners to the outdoors.

This appliance must be installed by a
competent person in accordance with the
installation instructions. The installation must
comply with the relevant regulations and
also the local electricity supply company
requirements
This appliance is designed for domestic
cooking only. Use for any other purpose could
invalidate any warranty or liability claim.
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 a window, or more effective
ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
The range should be serviced by a qualified
service engineer and only approved spare
parts used. Have the installer show you the
location of the range control switch. Mark it
for easy reference. Always allow the range to
cool and then switch off at the mains before
cleaning or carrying out any maintenance
work, unless specified otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the range become hot with use
and will retain heat even after you have
stopped cooking.
Take care when touching range, to minimize
the possibility of burns, always be certain that
the controls are in the OFF position and that
it is cool before attempting to clean the range.
Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth
is used to wipe spills on a hot surface, be
careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers
can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface.

Clean only parts listed in this guide.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the
range should be kept clean at all times as
a build up in fats and other food stuff could
result in a fire.
Always keep combustible wall coverings or
curtains etc. a safe distance away from your
range.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the
range while it is in use.
Do not store or use combustible materials,
or flammable liquids in the vicinity of this
appliance.
Take great care when heating fats and oils,
as they will ignite if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
Never leave a deep fry pan unattended.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Deep fry pans should be only one third full
of fat. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause
spill over when food is added. If you use a
combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them
together before heating, or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills
or overheating of foods when frying at high or
medium high temperatures. Never try to move
a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fry pan.
Wait until the fat is cool.
When using an electrical appliance near
the cooktop, be sure that the cord of the
appliance does not come into contact with
the cooktop.
Take care that no water seeps into the
appliance
Make sure that your kitchen is well ventilated
at all times. Use extractor fans or hoods when
fitted.
The range is designed for cooking foods only
and must not be used for any other purpose.
The oven should NOT be used for heating the
kitchen, not only does this waste fuel but the
control knobs may become overheated.
When the oven is on DO NOT leave the oven
door open for longer than necessary.
The specification of this range should not be
altered.
This appliance is heavy, take care when
moving it.
When the range is not in use ensure that the
control knobs are in the off position.

The drawing by each knob indicates which burner that
knob controls. Each burner has a special safety device that
stops the flow of gas if the flame goes out.
Push in and turn a knob to the ( ) lighting position.
Keep holding the knob pressed in to let the gas through
to the burner for few seconds. The igniter should spark
and light the gas.
If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner goes
out, the safety device has not held in. Turn the control
to the off position and wait one minute, then try again
this time holding in the control knob for slightly longer.
Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob. On
this range the low position is beyond high,  between
high and off. The ‘LO’ marks the low position. Turn the knob
towards it after the contents of a pan have boiled.
Make sure flames are under the pans. For safety reasons,
adjust the flames so that they do not extend beyond the
edge of the cooking utensil. This instruction is based on
safety considerations.
Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base
rims should not be used.
Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats,
are NOT recommended. They will reduce burner
performance and could damage the grates.
Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans that may
tilt easily and pans with a very small base diameter
e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers. The minimum pan
diameter recommended is 43/4”.
The Wok burners are designed to provide even heat
over a large area. They are ideal for large pans and
stir frying. When using large pans ensure that the
pan does not over hang the edge of the cooktop. For
heating smaller pans the smaller burners may be more
efficient.

The timer can be used to turn just one oven
or both on and off automatically. The start and
stop time must be the same for both ovens but
different cooking temperatures can be set.
If you want to turn one of the ovens on
at the same time as the timer is set for
automatic cooking, you must wait until
the timer has turned on the oven/ ovens
first. Then you can adjust either of them
manually in the normal way.
You can set the oven for a combined delay and
cook cycle of up to 11 hours 59 minutes.
If you want to cook more than one dish,
choose dishes that require approximately
the same time. However, dishes can be
‘slowed down’ slightly by using small
containers and covering them with
aluminum foil, or ‘speeded up’ slightly by
cooking smaller quantities or placing in
larger containers.
Never allow aluminum foil to
contact the heating elements.
Very perishable foods such as pork, dairy
products or seafood should be avoided if a
long delay period is planned, especially in hot
weather.
Don’t place warm food in the oven.
Don’t use an oven already warm.
Don’t use if an adjoining oven is warm.
Avoid using wine or beer if there is a delay
period, as fermentation may take place.
To avoid curdling, cream should be added to
dishes just before serving.
Fresh vegetables, which may discolor during a
delay period, should be coated in melted fat or
immersed in a water and lemon juice solution.
Fruit pies, custard tarts or similar wet mixtures
on top of uncooked pastry are only satisfactory if
there is a short delay period. Dishes containing
leftover cooked meat or poultry should not be
cooked automatically if there is a delay period.
Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted
before placing in the oven.
Check that meat and poultry are fully
cooked before serving.
Automatic cooking is not recommended for
baked items that require a pre-heated oven such
as cakes, cookies and breads.

Before using for the first time, heat the ovens
to 400°F for 30 minutes to expel manufacturing
odors.
The wire racks should always be pushed firmly
to the back of the oven.
Bakeware, meat pans etcetera should be placed
level centrally on the oven’s wire racks. Keep all
trays and containers away from the sides of the
oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended
size for a baking sheet is 141/4” wide by 12”
deep.
Always place baking sheets with the widest part
across the oven.
Cooking high moisture
content foods can create
a ‘steam burst’, when the
oven door is opened. When
opening the oven stand well
back and allow any steam to
disperse.
When the oven is on, don’t
leave the door open for longer
than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get
very hot.
• Always leave a ‘fingers width’ between dishes
on the same rack. This allows the heat to
circulate freely around them.
• Cover meat when cooking to avoid fat
splashes.
• To reduce fat splashing when you add
vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them
thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.
• Sufficient heat rises out of the oven while
cooking to warm plates in the broiler
compartment.
• If you want to brown the base of a pastry
dish, preheat the baking sheet for 15 minutes
before placing the dish in the center of the
sheet or use the base heat in the Multifunction
oven.
• Where dishes may boil and spill over during
cooking, place them on a baking sheet.

The left hand oven of your range is Multi-
function. It has many varied uses. We suggest
you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you
are familiar with each function. Remember - not
all functions will be suitable for all food types.
Please remember that all ranges vary -
temperatures in your new ovens may differ to
those in your previous range.

This function operates the fan to circulate cold
air only. No heat is applied. This enables small
items such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces
of meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.
Defrosting in this way speeds up the process
and protects the food from flies. Pieces of meat,
fish and poultry should be placed on a rack, over
a tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the
rack and tray after defrosting.
Defrost with the oven door closed.
Large items, such as whole chickens and meat
roasts should  be defrosted in this way. We
recommend this be carried out in a refrigerator.
Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm
oven or when an adjoining oven is in use or still
warm.
Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are
completely defrosted before cooking.

This function operates the fan and the heating
element around it. An even heat is produced
throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large
amounts quickly.
Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for
multi-rack cooking and is a good ‘all-round’
function. It may be necessary to reduce the
temperature by approximately 20°F for recipes
previously cooked in a conventional oven.
If you wish to pre-heat the oven, wait until the
indicator light has gone out before inserting the
food.

This function operates the fan whilst the top
element is on. It produces a more even, less
fierce heat than a conventional broiler. For best
results, place the food to be grilled, on the grid
in the deluxe oven tray. Thick pieces of meat
or fish are ideal for cooking in this way, as the
circulated air reduces the fierceness of the heat
from the broiler. The oven door should be kept
closed whilst cooking is in progress, so saving
energy. You will also find that the food needs
to be watched and turned less than for normal
broiling. Pre-heat this function before cooking.

This function operates the fan, circulating air
heated by the elements at the top and the
base of the oven. The combination of fan and
conventional cooking (top and base heat) makes
this function ideal for cooking large items that
need thorough cooking, such as a large meat
roast. It is also possible to bake on two racks at
one time, although they will need to be swapped
over during the cooking time, as the heat at the
top of the oven is greater than at the base, when
using this function.
This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an
eye on the food cooking until you have become
accustomed to this function.

This function combines the heat from the top
and base elements. It is particularly suitable for
roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits.
Food cooked on the top rack will brown and
crisp faster than on the lower rack, because the
heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the
base, as in ‘Convection assisted oven’ function.
Similar items being cooked will need to be
swapped around for even cooking. This means
that foods requiring different temperatures can
be cooked together, using the cooler zone in the
lower half of the oven and hotter area to the top.

This function uses the element in the top of the
oven only. It is a useful function for the browning
or finishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce
and lasagne, the item to be browned being
already hot before switching to the top element.
 
This function uses the base element only. It will
crisp up your pizza or quiche base or finish off
cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower
rack. It is also a gentle heat, good for slow
cooking of casseroles in the middle of the oven
or for plate warming.
The Browning and Base heat functions are
useful additions to your oven, giving you
flexibility to finish off items to perfection. With
use, you will soon realize how these functions
can combine to extend your cooking skills.
The Right Hand Oven
The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air
continuously, which means faster more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a fanned
oven are generally lower than a non-fanned oven.
The right hand fan oven control is at the right hand end of
the control panel.
Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature you
need.
The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has
reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on
and off during cooking.
Both Ovens
Before using for the first time, heat the ovens to 200°C for
30 minutes to dispel manufacturing odours.
Please remember that all cookers vary - temperatures
in your new ovens may differ to those in your previous
cooker.
The shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of
the oven.
Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed level
centrally on the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all trays
and containers away from the sides of the oven, as
overbrowning of the food may occur.
Cooking high moisture content foods can create a ‘steam
burst’, when the oven door is opened. When opening the
oven stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open for longer

Remember - not all modes will be suitable for all food types. The oven control settings and
cooking times given are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the
temperature to be altered to provide a preferred result.
Food is cooked at a lower temperature in a convection oven than in a conventional oven. When using
recipes, reduce the temperature by 20°F and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. The temperature in
the convection oven is the same throughout, ensuring uniform results.
The racks should not be fitted directly one above the other. When cooking on more than one
rack always leave at least one runner space between them. Place baking sheets, individual
cake tins or baking dishes centrally on the oven rack. For best results pre-heat the oven until
the oven indicator light goes out.
