Disposal of your product
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.
The appliance is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for

To help remove the ‘new’ smell, heat up the empty ovens to maximum temperature for a
minimum of two or three hours, keeping the oven doors closed. 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.
When the cooker is first used an odour may be emitted,
this will cease after a period of use

get extremely hot during and after cooking.
●Always make sure all controls are turned off when you have finished cooking
and when not in use.
●Always stand back when opening an oven door to allow any build up of steam or
heat to disperse.
●Always use dry, good quality oven gloves when removing items from the
oven/grill.
●Always take care to avoid heat/steam burns when operating the controls.
●Always turn off the electricity supply at the wall switch before cleaning and
allow the appliance to cool.
●Always make sure the shelves are in the correct position before switching on the

SAFETY ADVICE
IN THE EVENT OF A CHIP PAN 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 of
the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over. Never use water to extinguish
oil or fat fires.

The Cooking Systems in your Double Oven
Your new oven is equipped with
three different cooking systems:
1. Conventional Heating
(Top Oven) - with upper and
lower heat. This system is
particularly suitable for roasting
and baking on one shelf only.
2. Grilling (Top Oven) - Has a full
width, fully controllable grill. The
grill also has an economy setting
which enables you to use just the
left section.
NOTE: The oven door should
be open when grilling.
(See page 17.)
3. Fan Cooking (Lower Oven) - the fan
oven operates by constantly blowing
heated air from an element wrapped
around the fan into the oven. This gives
improved efficiency and, in general,
enables the use of lower temperatures
for cooking. It also means that there is
less need to be particular about shelf
positions and that you can bake at
more than one level simultaneously
(Batch Baking).
It should be noted that at the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff
of steam when the oven door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a
perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.

Oven Timer Operation
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Top Oven and Main Oven can be controlled by the automatic timer. When the timer
control has been set for one oven, it is possible to use the other oven only during the same
automatic cooking programme.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the
food is ready when you require it.
3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.
4. Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as possible.
5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for auto cooking,
keep the delay start time to a minimum.
6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could cause
the oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.
7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g.
Shepherd's Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay period.
8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in
food.
9. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it is
best to add these ingredients just before serving.
10. 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.
11. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
12. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of
liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
13. Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.
14. Only reheat food once.
Note: Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the ovens
can be used.
NEVER operate the grill when the ovens are set to cook automatically because
the oven cavity can become warm and this may cause
bacterial growth in food.
