Lighting the cooker
The system works by means of an electric spark system. Details about
the plug are given on page 29.
Hotplate & Grill
To light
1. Lift up the lid. You cannot use the hotplate when the lid is down.
2. Push in the control knob and turn it to the large flame symbol
(highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When
the burner has lit release the button.
2. Leave the grill door open when you are using the grill.
Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of
gas may cause the flame to spread.
Please note: If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all
the hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts
have been replaced correctly.
See page 23 for more information.

Lighting the cooker
For your safety
Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill
fires.
For your safety
If you close the lid of the cooker while any of the hotplate burners
are lit the gas will go out. This is because it would be dangerous if
the burners stayed on when the lid was closed.
Always use the control to turn off a burner. Do not use the
lid cut-off device. This will only cut off the gas when the lid is
closed. The gas will flow again when the lid is opened.

The oven
To light:
1 Set the time of day on the clock. See page 17.
2 Open the oven door.
3 Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 9. After a few
seconds, the oven will light automatically and the light will illuminate.
3 Now turn the control knob back to the gas
mark you want.
4 Wait until the burner is showing large
flames.
5 Close the oven door.
To turn off any burner
1 Push in the control knob and turn it to the off position. This is shown
by a large dot.
