Thank you for choosing a British built
appliance by New World
We hope that the following information
will help you to familiarise yourself
with the features of the appliance, and
to use it successfully and safely.
Our policy is one of constant
development and improvement. Strict
accuracy of illustrations and specifications
is not guaranteed. Modification to
design and materials may be
necessary subsequent to publication.
This appliance must be installed in
accordance with the regulations in
force, and only in a well ventilated
space. Read the instructions before
installing or using this appliance.
Your 1st Year Guarantee
To fulfil the conditions of your guarantee,
this appliance must be correctly
installed and operated, in accordance
with these instructions, and only be
used for normal domestic purposes.
Please refer to your Guarantee Card
for further details.
Please note that the guarantee, and
Service availability, only apply to the
UK and Republic of Ireland.
The User’s Section in this handbook
covers the operation of the ovens, grill,
hotplate and griddle (if supplied), but to
help you make the most of your cooker,
we have produced the accompanying
Cooking Guide which gives more
details of its features and benefits.
Your new appliance is designed to be
installed free-standing or flush to base
units. Certain features, such as the griddle,
are only available on some models.
Before using the appliance for
the first time, remove any protective
polythene film and wash the oven
shelves and furniture in hot soapy
water, to remove their protective
coating of oil. Even so, when you first
turn on the oven or grill you may
notice a smell and some smoke.
Ventilation
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 of a
window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
Stability bracket
If the cooker is to be fitted with a
flexible inlet connection, a stability
bracket should also be fitted to engage
in the back of the cooker. Make sure
this is re-engaged whenever you move
the cooker for cleaning.

For optimum safety and performance,
we recommend the use of flat bottomed
pans with a base diameter of minimum
100mm (4”) and maximum 250mm
(10”).
Do not use double pans, rim based
pans, old misshapen pans or any pan
which is unstable when placed on a
flat surface.
Turn pan handles to a safe position
so they are out of reach of children,
not overhanging the appliance and
cannot be caught accidentally.
Position pans over the centre of the
burners, resting on the pan supports.
If positioned off centre, smaller pans
may be unstable.
When cooking with fat or oil, never
leave unattended.
Commercial simmering aids should
not be used as they create excessive

may be inverted to give a high or low
position or the trivet may be removed.
1. The HIGH trivet position is suitable
for toasting bread.
2. The LOW trivet position is suitable
for grilling all types of meat and
fish.
3. With the grill trivet removed the
food is placed directly on the base
of the grill pan - eg; when cooking
whole fish or browning dishes
such as cauliflower cheese.

Caution: Accessible parts may be
hot when the ovens are used. Young
children should be kept away.
The cooker has two conventional gas
ovens. Please refer to the accompanying
cooking guide for instructions on using
the ovens.
Ignition
Open the oven door. Push in and turn
the control knob to the full on position
(gas mark 9). Hold the control knob in
and operate the ignition button (if fitted)
or hold a lighted match or taper to the
burner.
A few seconds after the flame has
established, the control knob can be
released.
Turn the control knob to the required
gas mark setting.
In the event of the burner flames being
accidentally extinguished, turn off the
burner control and do not attempt to
re-ignite the burner for at least one
minute.
To turn off, push in the control knob
and turn clockwise until the dot on the
control knob is below the line on the
facia panel.
Preheating
The oven must be preheated for 15
minutes when cooking frozen or
chilled foods, and we recommend
preheating for yeast mixtures, batters,
soufflés, and whisked sponges.
Notes:
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the top of
the oven(s). When opening the oven
door, care should be taken to avoid
any possible contact with potentially
hot air, since this may cause discom-
fort to people with sensitive skin. We
recommend that you hold the under-
neath of the oven door handle.
If you find that over a period of time,
the oven becomes hotter when used at
a particular gas mark, the thermostat
may need to be replaced.

USING THE OVENS
Glass parts (if fitted)
GLASS DOOR PANELS
Do not use abrasives or polishes as
they will scratch and damage the glass.
Use a mild cream cleaner - eg; “Cif”.
Rinse away excess cleaner and dry
with a soft cloth.
Warning: Do not operate the appliance
without the glass panel correctly fitted.
Important: the inner door glass
panel can be removed for cleaning but
it must be replaced the right way up
(so the reflective side - if fitted - faces
inwards), and pushed fully in to the
stop position. To remove the glass
panel, open the door wide, hold the
top and bottom edges and slide out.
Griddle care and cleaning
Do not use metal implements as they
may damage the non stick surface.
After cooking allow the griddle
to cool completely before
attempting to remove or clean.
Once the griddle has cooled, remove
any excess fat with kitchen paper
before moving.
The griddle can be cleaned with hot
soapy water and a nylon brush. If any
food residue is left on the griddle,
leave it to soak for a few minutes in hot
soapy water before attempting to
clean it. Do not use caustic pastes,
abrasive cleaning powders, coarse
wire wool or any hard implements, as
they will damage the surface.
Do not clean in a dishwasher.
After cleaning, dry thoroughly then
re-season the cooking surface by wiping
sparingly with a minimum amount of
oil, and store in a dry place.

RUNNERS, GRILL PAN TRIVET
Use a moist soap pad, eg; “Brillo”.
Note: Oven shelf runners (if fitted) can
be removed for cleaning. Grasp the
runners and slide out of the hanging
holes as shown.
Note: These items may also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
Painted, plastic & metal finish

hot soapy water.
Ticene® oven interior (if fitted)
OVEN SIDES AND BACK
We recommend that the appliance is
cleaned after open roasting, and also
after roasting at temperatures higher
than gas mark 5, to help prevent a
build up of fats. Use of a trivet in a
roasting tin when roasting will help
reduce fat splashing.
Caution: Most types of cleaning
agent will damage these surfaces.
Only use a few drops of washing up
liquid in hot water. Wipe the surfaces
with a clean cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water - if larger splashes of fat
do not readily disappear scrub the
area with a nylon brush or nylon pan
scourer and hot soapy water. Rinse
well and heat the oven to dry the surfaces.

CLEANING
Oven furniture
Shelf positions
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand at the rear of the oven and
facing upwards.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
1 clear shelf position between shelves,
to allow for circulation of heat.
Baking tray and roasting tins
For best cooked results and even
browning, the maximum size baking
trays and roasting tins that should be
used are as follows;
Baking tray 290mm x 270mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
16 small cakes.
Roasting tin 320mm x 270mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.

Caution: Any cleaning agent
used incorrectly may damage
the appliance.
Always let the cooker cool
before cleaning.
Some cooking operations generate
considerable amount of grease, this
combined with spillage can become a
hazard if allowed to accumulate on
the appliance through lack of
cleaning. In extreme cases this may
amount to misuse of the appliance and
could invalidate your guarantee.
It is recommended that the appliance
is cleaned after open roasting.
Do not use caustic, corrosive or
abrasive cleaning products, products
containing bleach, coarse wire wool
or any hard implements, as they will
damage the surfaces.
All parts of the cooker can be safely
cleaned with a cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water.
