Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the hob. Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a sharp blow or sharp
falling object might cause the surface to crack. As soon as any crack in the surface becomes visible disconnect the
appliance from the supply and arrange for its repair. Care should be taken that no water seeps into
the appliance.
During use, and afterwards, the appliance will be warm, so be careful with little children. If the younger members of
your family are allowed into the kitchen we strongly advise that they are kept under supervision at all times.
If you have not used a ceramic electric cooker before, we recommend you read the ‘General Safety Instructions’
where we describe some basic guidelines on how to use your cooker safely.
Electricity on
Make sure that the electricity supply is turned on.
Peculiar smells
When you first use your cooker it may give off a slight odour. This should stop after a little use.

Glass-ceramic cookware is not suitable because of its poor
conductivity.

Pots and pans should have thick, smooth, flat bottoms.
This ensures that there is the maximum heat transfer from
the hob to the pan, making cooking quick and energy
efficient.
Never use a round bottomed Wok even with a stand.

The very best pans have bases that are very slightly
curved in when cold. If you hold a ruler across the bottom
you will see a small gap in the middle. When they heat up
the metal expands and lies flat on the cooking surface.
Make sure that the base of the pan is clean and dry to
prevent any residue burning onto the hob panel. This
also helps prevent scratches and deposits (such as lime
specks).

Always use pans that are the same size as (or slightly
larger than) the areas marked on the hob top. Using
smaller pans wastes heat, and any spillage will be burnt
on. Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly.

Always lift pans off the hob. Sliding pans may cause marks
and scratches. Always turn the control to the off position
before removing a pan.

There are indicator lights for each of the cooking areas.
These come on when a hob control is turned on and
stay lit while the surface cools. Always take care before
touching the surface even when it is turned off - it may be
hotter than you think.

The ratings of the cooking areas are shown on the
diagram above.

ArtNo.312-0001 Not cooking surface
“On the right of the hob is a dual purpose area. The inner
ring marks out a 1.2kW hob area which can be used in
the same way as all the other cooking zones on the hob.
The outer line marks the extent of the Warmer. Turn the
control to the first (warmer) position to heat both ends of
the area to a low temperature. The centre part of the zone
will also become hot making it ideal for keeping ready
cooked food in saucepans warm. Use only heat resistent
dishes on the warming area”.
For best results, pre-heat a covered serving dish for 10
minutes before adding food to it.

Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a heavy or
sharp falling object (a salt cellar for example) might cause
the surface to crack. If you find a crack in the surface
disconnect the appliance from the supply
and arrange for its repair.
Care should be taken that no water seeps into the
appliance.

The areas marked with two concentric circles have
an inner and an outer element. Turn the control knob
clockwise to heat the whole area for larger pans - turn it
the other way to just heat the inner part for smaller pans.

 cook directly on the surface.
The kind of pan you use and the quantity of food
affects the setting required. Higher settings are
required for larger quantities of food.
Naturally, the surface must be washed after use in
order to prevent it from becoming scratched or dirty.
When cooking on the hob you may see the hob area
you are using switch off and on. This is caused by a
safety device that limits the temperature of the hob.
It is quite normal, especially when cooking at high
temperatures. If it happens a lot with a particular
pan however it may mean the pan is not suitable
– perhaps too small or too uneven - for a ceramic hob.
Sugar spillage will permanently damage the hob and
therefore must be cleaned off with care immediately.
Never let sugar spillage cool before trying to remove
it.
If sugar or foods with high sugar content, aluminium
foil or plastic items are accidentally allowed to melt
on the hob surface remove them immediately from
the hot cooking area using a scraper to avoid any
possible damage to the surface. See ‘Cleaning your
cooker’.

area of the pan to be heated or just the right hand
half.
To heat the whole grill, turn the knob clockwise.
To heat the right hand half turn it anticlockwise.
The neon indicator light by the grill control will come
on.
For best results preheat for 2 minutes with the grill
pan in position. After placing your food on the grill
pan grid, slide in the grill carriage. Adjust the heat to
suit by turning the knob.

The grill pan grid can be turned over to give two
grilling positions.
Don’t leave the grill on for more than a few moments,
without the grill pan underneath it.
For best results, especially with toast, preheat the
grill with the grill pan in the cooking position for two
minutes before use.
Before you remove any of the grill parts for cleaning
make sure that they are cool or use oven gloves.
The grill trivet can be removed and the food placed
on it while you are waiting for the grill to preheat.
The grill pan and grill pan carriage can be easily
removed for cleaning. See the ‘Cleaning your cooker’
section of these instructions.
When you pull the grill pan forward is the wide rim at
the front? It’s important that the wider part is at the
front.

The left hand oven is a Multi-function oven. As well as
the oven fan and fan element, it is fitted with two extra
heating elements, one visible in the top of the oven
and the second under the oven base. Take care to avoid
touching the top element and element deflector when
placing or removing items from the oven. For more detail
on this oven see the section ‘Multi-function oven’.
The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air
continuously, which means faster more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a fanned
oven are generally lower than a non-fanned oven.
The Multi-function oven has two controls, a function
selector and a temperature setting knob.
The right hand fan oven control is on the right hand side
of the control panel.

Cooking using the timer
The timer can control the left hand Main oven only.
You can set the oven to turn on any time over the
following 24 hour period
If you want to cook more than one dish, choose
dishes that require approximately the same time.
However, dishes can be ‘slowed down’ slightly by
using small containers and covering them with
aluminium foil, or ‘speeded up’ slightly by cooking
smaller quantities or placing in larger containers.
Very perishable foods such as pork or fish should be
avoided if a long delay period is planned, especially in
hot weather.
Don’t place warm food in the oven.
Don’t use an oven already warm.
Don’t use if an adjoining oven is warm.
Avoid using wine or beer if there is a delay period, as
fermentation may take place.
To avoid curdling, cream should be added to dishes
just before serving.
Fresh vegetables, which may discolour during a delay
period, should be coated in melted fat or immersed in
a water and lemon juice solution.
Fruit pies, custard tarts or similar wet mixtures on top
of uncooked pastry are only satisfactory if there is a
short delay period. Dishes containing leftover cooked
meat or poultry should not be cooked automatically
if there is a delay period.
Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted before
placing in the oven.
Check that meat and poultry are fully cooked
before serving

Multi-function oven functions
The Multi-function oven has many varied uses. We
suggest you keep a careful eye on your cooking until
you are familiar with each function. Remember - not
all functions will be suitable for all food types.

The Rapid Response setting enables you to
pre-heat the oven faster than normal. It uses the
fan oven element with additional heat from one of
the elements in the top of the oven. Rangemaster
fan ovens heat up quickly; but the Rapid Response
feature speeds this process up enabling you to
commence cooking sooner.
To use the Rapid Response feature, simply turn the
function control knob to R and set the temperature
you require. The light on the control panel adjacent
to the R symbol will come on. When temperature is
reached, the light will go out as will the element at
the top of the oven. The fan element and oven fan
will then continue to maintain your chosen oven
temperature.
Should you choose to place food into the cold oven
prior to cooking whilst using the Rapid Response
function, ensure that cakes etc. are not positioned
too near the top of the oven.
As with any cooking, particularly poultry, meat and
ready meals, be sure the food is piping hot before
serving.

This function operates the fan to circulate cold
air only. No heat is applied. This enables small items
such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of meat, fish
and poultry to be defrosted.
Defrosting in this way speeds up the process and
protects the food from flies. Pieces of meat, fish and
poultry should be placed on a rack, over a tray to
catch any drips. Be sure to wash the rack and tray
after defrosting.
Defrost with the oven door closed.
Large items, such as whole chickens and joints should
not be defrosted in this way. We recommend this be
carried out in a refrigerator.
Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm oven
or when an adjoining oven is in use or still warm.
Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are
completely defrosted before cooking.

This function operates the fan and the heating
element around it. An even heat is produced
throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large
amounts quickly.
Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for baking
on three shelves at one time and is a good ‘all-
round’ function. It may be necessary to reduce the
temperature by approximately 10°C for recipes
previously cooked in a conventional oven.
If you wish to pre-heat the oven, wait until the
indicator light has gone out before inserting the food.

This function operates the fan whilst the top
element is on. It produces a more even, less fierce
heat than a conventional grill. For best results, place
the food to be grilled, on a grid over a roasting tin,
which should be smaller than a conventional grill
pan. This allows greater air circulation. Thick pieces
of meat or fish are ideal for grilling in this way, as the
circulated air reduces the fierceness of the heat from
the grill. The oven door should be kept closed whilst
grilling is in progress, so saving energy. You will also
find that the food needs to be watched and turned
less than for normal grilling. Pre-heat this function
before cooking.

This function operates the fan, circulating air
heated by the elements at the top and the base of
the oven. The combination of fan and conventional
cooking (top and base heat) makes this function ideal
for cooking large items that need thorough cooking,
such as a large meat roast. It is also possible to bake
on two shelves at one time, although they will need
to be swapped over during the cooking time, as the
heat at the top of the oven is greater than at the base,
when using this function.
This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an
eye on the food cooking until you have become
accustomed to this function.


This function combines the heat from the top and
base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting
and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked
on the top shelf will brown and crisp faster than on
the lower shelf, because the heat is greater at the top


of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Fan assisted oven’
function. Similar items being cooked will need to be
swapped around for even cooking. This means that
foods requiring different temperatures can be cooked
together, using the cooler zone in the lower half of
the oven and hotter area to the top.

This function uses the element in the top of the
oven only. It is a useful function for the browning or
finishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce and
lasagne, the item to be browned being already hot
before switching to the top element.

This function uses the base element only. It
will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or finish off
cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower shelf.
It is also a gentle heat, good for slow cooking of
casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate
warming.
The Browning and Base heat functions are useful
additions to your oven, giving you flexibility to finish
off items to perfection. With use, you will soon realise
how these functions can combine to extend your
cooking skills.

The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air
continuously, which means faster more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a
fanned oven are generally lower than a non-fanned
oven.
Oven shelves
the shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards
As well as the flat shelves some models are supplied
with a drop shelf. The drop shelf increases the
possibilities for oven shelf spacing.

To avoid damage to the interior enamel, do not place
a meat tin or baking trays on the bottom of the oven
and do not line the base of the oven with aluminium
cooking foil. Do not use aluminium foil to cover
shelves, linings or the oven roof.
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to
the back of the oven.
Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed
level centrally on the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all
trays and containers away from the sides of the
oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.
For even browning, the maximum recommended size
for a baking tray is 340mm by 340mm.
Cooking high moisture content foods can create a
‘steam burst’, when the oven door is opened. When
opening the oven stand well back and allow any
steam to disperse.
When the oven is on, don’t leave the door open for
longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get
very hot.
• Always leave a ‘fingers width’ between dishes on
the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate
freely around them.
• The Cook & Clean oven liners (see Cleaning your
cooker) work better when fat splashes are avoided.
Cover meat when cooking.


• To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables
to hot fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or
brush lightly with cooking oil.
• If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish,
preheat a baking tray for 15 minutes before placing
the dish in the centre of the tray.
• Where dishes may boil and spill over during
cooking, place them on a baking tray
The oven shelves can be easily removed and refitted.
Pull the shelf forward
until the back of the shelf
is stopped by the shelf
stop bumps in the oven
sides.
Lift up the front of the
shelf so the back of the
shelf will pass under the
shelf stop and then pull
the shelf forward.
To refit the shelf, line up the shelf with a groove in the
oven side and push the shelf back until the ends hit
the shelf stop. Lift up the front so the shelf ends clear
the shelf stops, and then lower the front so that the
shelf is level and push it fully back.
The Handyrack
The maximum weight that can be held by the
Handyrack is 5.5kg (12lb). It should only be used with
the supplied meat tin, which is designed to fit the
Handyrack. Any other vessel could be unstable.
The Handyrack fits to the left hand oven door only.
Food cooking on it is easy to attend to, because it’s
accessible when the door is open. It can be fitted at
two different heights. One of the oven shelves must
be removed and the other positioned to suit.
When the Handyrack is used in its highest position,
other dishes can be cooked on the bottom shelf
position of the oven.
When the Handyrack is used in its lowest position,
other dishes can be cooked on the second shelf
position of the oven.
To fit the Handyrack,
locate one side of it
on the door bracket.
Then spring the
other side out to
clip it onto the
other bracket.
Oven light
Press the button to turn on the oven lights.
If one of the oven lights fail, turn off the
power supply before you change the bulb.
See the ‘Troubleshooting’ section for details
on how to change an oven light bulb.

Multi-function Oven cooking guide
Remember - not all functions will be suitable for all food types. The oven control settings and cooking times
given are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to
provide a preferred result.
Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce
the temperature by 10°C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. The temperature in the fanned oven does not
vary with height in the oven - so you can use any shelf.
As a guide for fan cooking on three levels, use the drop shelf in position 1 (bottom position) and flat shelves on
levels 2 and 4.
The shelves should not be fitted directly one above the other. When cooking on more than one shelf always
leave at least one runner space between them. Place baking trays, individual cake tins or baking dishes
centrally on the oven shelf. For best results pre-heat the oven until the oven indicator light goes out.

Cleaning your cooker
Essential information
Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity
supply. Remember to switch on the electricity supply
before use.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic
cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine
based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.
Don’t mix different cleaning products - they may
react together with hazardous results.
Recommended cleaning materials are shown in
the table at the end of this section.
If you want to move your cooker for cleaning, see the
section called ‘Moving your cooker’.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy
water - 

First of all, be sure that all heat indicator lights are off
and the cooking surface is cool. Apply a small dab,
about the size of a 10p piece, of ceramic cooking
cleaning cream in the centre of each area to be
cleaned. Dampen a clean paper towel and work the
cleaning cream on the cooking surface as if you were
cleaning a window. As a final step, wipe the cooking
surface with a clean, dry paper towel.

For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking,
turn the unit off and wipe the area surrounding the
hot zone with a clean paper towel. If a spill (other
than a sugary substance) is on the hot zone, do
not clean until the unit is completely cooled down
and follow the instructions below (“Cleaning for
burned-on spills”). If you accidentally melt anything
on the cooking or if you spill foods with a high sugar
content (preserves, tomato sauce, etc.), REMOVE the
spill IMMEDIATELY with a razor scraper, while the
unit is still hot. IMPORTANT: Use an oven glove to
protect your hand from potential burns. Scrape the
major spill or melted material from the cooking zone
and push into a cold area. Then, turn the unit “OFF”
and allow to cool before cleaning further. After the
cooking surface cools down and the heat indicator
lights go off, use the daily care procedure as outlined
above.

Be sure that the heat indicator lights are off and the
hob is cool. Remove excess burned-on substance
with a single-edged razor scraper. Hold the scraper at
approximately a 30° angle to the surface and scrape
off the burned-on matter as you would scrape paint
off of a window.
IMPORTANT: Take care when using a sharp scraper.
When you have removed as much as possible with
the scraper clean using the daily care procedure as

Sliding pans on the hob - especially aluminium or
copper pans can leave marks on the surface. These
marks often appear like scratches, but can be easily
removed using the procedure described above for
cleaning spills. If the rub-off marks are especially
stubborn, use the cleaning cream together with the
razor scraper, using the technique described above.

The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot soapy
water. After grilling meats or any foods that soil, leave

Lift the grill pan clear of the support frame. The
support frame is held to the side rails by two clips on
each side.
For each side, support the side rail with one hand and
with the other hand lift the frame up and out of the
side clips.
For safety, push the side rails back into the grill
chamber.
The side rails can be removed to make cleaning the
grill chamber easer by unhooking them from the grill

The main ovens have removable panels that have
been coated with a special enamel that partly cleans
itself. This does not stop all marks on the lining, but
helps to reduce the amount of manual cleaning
needed.
The Cook & Clean panels work better above
200°C. If you do most of your cooking below this
temperature, occasionally remove the panels and
wipe with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water.
The panels should then be dried and replaced and
the oven heated at 200°C for about one hour. This
will ensure the Cook & Clean panels are working
effectively.
Don’t use steel wool (Brillo) or any other materials
that will scratch the surface. Don’t use oven cleaning
pads.

If you are cooking a large item, be prepared to turn it
round during cooking.
If two shelves are used, check that space has been
left for the heat to circulate. When a baking tray is put
into the oven, make sure it is placed centrally on the
shelf.
Check that the door seal is not damaged and that the
door catch is adjusted so that the door is held firmly
against the seal.
A dish of water when placed on the shelf should be
the same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper
at the back, then the back of the cooker should be
raised up or the front lowered). If the cooker is not

General Safety Instructions
The cooker must be installed by a qualified electrician
in accordance with the installation instructions. It
should be serviced by a qualified service engineer
and only approved spare parts used. Have the
installer show you the location of the cooker control
switch. Mark it for easy reference. Always allow the
cooker to cool and then switch off at the mains and
before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance
work, unless specified otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the cooker become hot with use and
will retain heat even after you have stopped
cooking.
Take care when touching the hob especially the
marked cooking areas. The glass surface of the hob
will retain heat after the controls have been turned
off. To minimize the possibility of burns, always be
certain that the hob controls are in the OFF position
and that the entire glass surface is cool before
attempting to clean the hob.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable - using damp
gloves might result in steam burns when you touch
a hot surface. Never operate the cooker with wet
hands.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of
a glove. They might catch fire if they touch a hot
surface.
Always turn the surface unit controls off before
removing the pans.
Don’t place utensils on the hob surface when it is in
use. They may become hot and could cause burns.
Clean the hob with caution. If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be
careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Do not use unstable saucepans and position the
handles away from the edge of the hotplate.
Babies, toddlers and young children should not be
allowed near the cooker at any time. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance. Teach them not to play with controls or
any other part of the cooker.
Never store anything of interest to children in
cabinets above a cooker - children climbing on the
cooker to reach them could be seriously injured.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the cooker
should be kept clean at all times as a build up in fats
and other food stuff could result in a fire.
We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface
unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator
light has gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to
this. Please see ‘Cleaning your cooker’. When the
hob is cool, use only the recommended cleaning
cream to clean the hob.
To avoid possible damage to the cooking surface,
do not apply the cleaning cream to the glass surface
when it is hot. Read and follow all instructions
and warnings on the cleaning cream labels. After
cleaning, use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove
any cleaning cream residue.
Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may
damage the hob and the pan.
Always keep combustible wall coverings or curtains
etc. a safe distance away from your cooker.
Do not place or store items on top of the glass hob
surface when it is not in use.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the cooker
while it is in on.
Do not store or use combustible materials, or
flammable liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming
pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely
with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If available
use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
Never leave the hob unattended at high heat
settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking and
greasy spills may catch on fire.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging clothes while
using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for
items stored in cabinets over the hob. Flammable
material could be ignited if brought in contact with a
hot surface unit and may cause severe burns.
Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they
will ignite if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to
prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Never leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat
slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should
be only one third full of fat. Filling the pan too full
of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If
you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir
them together before heating, or as the fats melt.
