FOR YOUR SAFETY
NEVER . . .
NEVER leave children unsupervised where the cooker is installed as all surfaces will get hot during and after
use.
NEVER allow anyone to sit or stand on any part of the cooker.
NEVER store items that children may attempt to reach above the cooker.
NEVER heat up unopened food containers as pressure can build up causing the container to burst.
NEVER store chemicals, food stuffs, pressurised containers in or on the cooker, or in cabinets immediately
above or next to the cooker.
NEVER fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, and never use a lid. DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED
WHILE COOKING.
NEVER place flammable or plastic items on or near the hotplate.
NEVER use proprietary spillage collectors on the hotplate.
NEVER use the cooker as a room heater.
NEVER dry clothes or place other times over or near to the hotplate or oven/gril doors.
NEVER wear garments with long flowing sleeves whilst cooking.
NEVER operate the grill with the grill doors closed. This may cause overheating of your cooker.
NEVER line the shelves, floor or sides of the oven or grill with aluminium foil as over heating and damage can
result.
NEVER use steam cleaners.
NEVER touch the heating elements inside the oven or grill even when off.
NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it
is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes open or install a
mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
In particular when using the grill or more than one hotplate burner, open a window if a mechanical ventilation
device is not operating.
!The appliance should not be operated by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capacities, by inexperienced individuals or by anyone who is not familiar with the product. These individuals
should, at the very least, be supervised by someone who assumes responsibility for their safety or receive
preliminary instructions relating to the operation of the appliance.

OVEN TIMER OPERATION
The oven timer (only ventilated Oven) offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or is just about to finish cooking on your return to the oven.
This will ensure the food has not cooled down and does not require reheating before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven, ideally straight from the refrigerator. Frozen
meat and poultry should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. Warm food should never be placed in the oven if there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the
meat and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. Dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automati-
cally if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so that the delay period is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start
should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients
just before serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been
added, prior to placing food in the oven.
10.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
11.Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Alu-
minium foil gives a good seal.
12.Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
