COOKING GUIDE
The baking tray and roasting tin provided are the largest that should be used in this size
oven. Larger items may well affect the circulation and heat distribution. Best results will
be obtained by following the shelf position in this guide.

For best results preheat for 10 - 15 minutes. Most cookery books give detail of the shelf
positions and gas mark settings for each recipe. If in doubt about a recipe you intend to
use, study the recipe carefully, then find a similar dish in our guide and use our shelf
position and gas mark setting recommendation. Shelf positions are from the top down.
When roasting with aluminium foil care must be taken that the foil does not impair
circulation or block the oven flue outlet.
SAFETY
It is important that ordinary safety precautions are observed in the use of this appliance.
1) When cooking keep children away from the vicinity. Turn pan handles inwards so
that they can not be caught accidentally.
2) Never leave fat or oil unattended on the hotplate.
3) When finished, check that all the controls are in the off position.
4) This appliance must not in any circumstances be used as a space heater.
5) If fitted in a touring caravan or motorvan, all burners should be extinguished when
the vehicle in which that appliance is installed is moving. It is preferred that the
cylinder valve on the appliance is turned off.
LEAKS
If a smell of gas becomes apparent, the supply should be turned off at the cylinder
IMMEDIATELY.
Extinguish naked lights including cigarettes and pipes. Do not operate electrical
switches. Open all doors and windows to disperse any gas escape.
Propane gas is heavier than air and any escaping gas will therefore collect at a low
level. The strong unpleasant smell of gas will enable the general area of the leak to be
detected. Check that the gas is not escaping from an unlit appliance.
Never check for leaks with a naked flame; leak investigation should be carried out using
a leak detector spray or soapy solution.
CONNECTION
An 8mm gas inlet connection is provided on the underside of the appliance. Refer to
the "Dimensions" section following for the location of the gas inlet. It is recommended
that the appliance is connected by copper tubing using a 6mm male iron (1/4” BSP) to
an 8mm copper union.
A rubber connection must not be used
After connection the appliance must be tested for soundness
This appliance is suitable for use on
PROPANE GAS ONLY 2.75Kpa.
It is important that the regulator should be set to the correct pressure for the type of gas
being used. Excessive pressure must not be permitted.
If the flame on either the top burners or the grill should show a tendency to lift, it is
possible that the line pressure is too great. Should there be excessive yellow tips
(resulting in sooting) then it is possible that the line pressure is too low. In either case
the burners should not be used until the line pressure has been checked out.
The appliance is fitted with the following injectors
Burners: 0.62mm 5.0MJ/h
Grill 0.62mm 5.0MJ/h
Oven 0.59mm 4.5MJ/h
The burners on this appliance have fixed aeration and no adjustment is necessary.

BEFORE LEAVING
The pipe connections should be checked for leaks
with soap and water. DO NOT use a naked flame
for detecting leaks.
Test all burners on high and low flame for flame
stability. When satisfied with the appliance, please
instruct the user on the correct method of
operation. If the appliance fails to operate
correctly after all the checks have been made,
refer to the authorised service provider in your
area.

WARNINGS
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapours, liquids or items in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
DO NOT spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance whilst it is in operation.
Where this appliance is installed in marine craft or in caravans, it shall not be
used as a space heater.
NEVER check for leaks with an open flame.
OPERATION
Ensure the gas cylinder is turned on.
In the event of a gas smell, turn off the cylinder and contact the supplier.
HOTPLATE BURNER
CAUTION: GLASS LIDS MAY SHATTER WHEN HEATED. TURN OFF ALL
BURNERS AND GRILL BEFORE SHUTTING THE LID.
Each burner is controlled individually and may be monitored by a flame supervision
device. 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. The
respective knob positions are show in Fig 1.
Fig 1.
To light the burner, press in and turn the knob anti-clockwise to the full rate position and
apply a light to the burner or press the ignition button if fitted. It is necessary to hold the
knob depressed during ignition and for approximately fifteen seconds after the burner
has lit to allow the probe to reach temperature. Should the flame go out when the knob
is released, the procedure should be repeated holding the knob depressed for slightly
longer.
Although the grill does heat up quickly, it is recommended that a few minutes preheat
be allowed. The grill pan should be left in position to protect the base lining. The grill
pan trivet can be reversed to give a choice of grilling height. The grill door must be left
open while the grill is in use.
USING THE OVEN
1. Ensure gas cylinder is connected and turned on. In the event of the smell of gas,
turn off at the gas cylinder and contact supplier.
2. Remove all accessories and packing that may be in the oven and clean the interior
before using it for the first time. Use soap and water and rinse carefully.
3. To light: Open door, push in control knob and turn to gas mark 9. Hold a lighted
match or taper to the burner and push and hold the control knob in. The burner
should ignite and the control knob should be held in for 10-15 seconds before
release. If The burner goes out, repeat the procedure, holding the knob in longer.
4. For models fitted with spark ignition, the procedure is similar except that the burner
can be ignited by depressing the ignition button located on the fascia. Ignition must
be carried out with the oven door open and if the burner has not lit within 15
seconds the control knob should be released and the oven left for at least one
minute before a further attempt to ignite the burner.
5. Place the oven shelf in the required position and close the door. Set the control
knob to approximately gas mark 5 and heat the oven for about 20 minutes to
eliminate any residual factory lubricants, which may impart unpleasant smells to
the meals being cooked.
6. To turn off: Turn the control knob until the dot on the control knob is aligned with
the dot on the control panel.
7. Flame Failure Device (FFD): The oven burner is fitted with a flame sensing probe
which will automatically cut off the gas supply in the event of the flame going out.
8. Oven shelves: The oven shelf has been designed to allow good circulation at the
rear of the oven and are also fitted with a raised bar to prevent trays or dishes
making contact with the back of the oven. To remove a shelf, pull forward until it
stops, raise at the front and remove.
DO'S AND DON'TS
DO read the user instructions carefully before using the appliance for the first time.
DO allow the oven to heat before using for the first time, in order to expel any
smells before the introduction of food.
DO clean the appliance regularly.
DO remove spills as soon as they occur.
DO always use oven gloves when removing food shelves and trays from the oven.
DO check that controls are in the off position when finished.
DO NOT allow children near the cooker when in use. Turn pan handles away from the
front so that they cannot be caught accidentally.
DO NOT allow fats or oils to build up in the oven trays or base.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or powders that will scratch the surfaces of the hot
plate and oven.
DO NOT under any circumstances use the oven as a space heater.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature in the oven is controlled by a thermostatic gas tap and is variable over
the range 130 ºC to 240ºC. Approximate temperatures for the settings on the control
knob are shown in the table below. The temperatures indicated refer to the centre of the
oven, and at any particular setting the oven will be hotter at the top and cooler towards
the base. The variation between top to centre, and centre to bottom is approximately
equivalent to one Gas Mark. Good use can be made of the temperature variation in that
several dishes requiring different temperatures may be cooked at the same time. In this
way maximum benefit can be obtained from the gas used to heat the oven. Care should
be taken not to overload the oven; allow adequate spacing for free circulation of heat.
