3.2. Using the Hotplate & Oven
- It is important that you use only ‘oven proof’ pans and
dishes when using the appliance for cooking or grilling.
Never allow cookware and/or utensils to come into contact
with the top heating element/grill.
Do not use melamine or plastic containers when cooking or
grilling.

and in particular avoid touching the Grill Element.

the heat zones.
During initial operation of your oven, as previously
mentioned, a smell will arise from the insulation materials
and initial warming of the element(s).
To avoid it, we recommend o perating your oven at 250°C
for 45 minutes without putting a ny trays in and also
removing all furniture from your oven cavity (including wire
shelves). This will allow the materials to bur n the smell off
and should then be ready to use without smoking or bad
smells occurring .

For CLOSED DOOR GRILLING, you wouldn’t
need to fit the heat deflector as the door
wouldn’t be able to be closed. For OPEN
DOOR GRILLING, firstly ensure that your
heat deflector (supplied) is fitted, then close
the door as far as it will go. The door should
now be resting on the heat deflector. If it
isn’t please assess and check again.
3.2.1. Using the Hob Heat Zones
Turn the required heat zone control knob (3, 4, 5 or 6) to
the required heat setting between 1 (Low) and 6 (High). Whilst
one or more of the heat zones are in use, the heat zone warning
light will be on.
When you have finished, turn the control knob(s) back to the off
position.
3.2.2. Operating the Grill/Top Oven
Turn the control knob to the required heat setting: top/
bottom heat, top heat, single grill or double grill functions.
The warning light will come on whilst the grill is being used.
You can use the grill either with the door OPEN or
CLOSED. Closed door grilling is more common in Europe
whereas in the UK, we tend to prefer the door to be open.
You have both choices.
To grill, pre-heat the oven to the required temperature for 5
minutes and then insert the grill pan. When using the grill,
you are strongly advised to fit the handle to the grill pan as
shown in the pictures below. When you have finished using
the grill, turn the control knob back to the off position.

3.2.1. Main Oven
We always recommend Pre-Heating. Firstly, set the required
temperature and allow the oven to get to temperature (up-
to 15 minutes) before placing food in the cavity.
To operate the oven, turn the control knob to the required
heat setting. The thermostat light will come on until the
required heat setting is achieved.
When you have finished using the oven, turn the control
knob back to the off position.
When adding or removing items to and from the oven
you are strongly advised to use Oven Gloves!
