young children should be kept
away.
Grill ignition
Important: The door must be fully
open when the grill is used.
Open the grill door.
Push in and turn the grill control knob
anticlockwise to the full-on position
(large flame symbol).
Adjust to the required setting (there is
a turn down to a slightly reduced
setting).
Do not operate the grill between the
“full on” flame setting and the “off”
position.
If for any reason the burner fails to
ignite, turn off the control and wait at
least one minute before repeating the
ignition procedure.
To switch off, turn the control knob
clockwise to return it to the “off”
position.
If the oven is set for automatic
cooking, you can still use the grill, but
the oven ignition will start.

moving the grill pan up or down.
Important: Never operate the grill
between the large flame and the off
position.
The grill trivet, inside the grill pan, can
be inverted to give a high or low
position, or it may be removed.
Always use the top shelf position for
fast toasting.
Always preheat the grill for a few
minutes for best results.
When you have finished grilling,
check that the control knob is
returned to the off position.

USING THE OVEN
When you are cooking, keep
children away from the vicinity
of the oven.
Oven ignition
Push in and turn the oven control knob
anticlockwise to gas mark 9.
When the oven is switched on the
oven light will come on automatically.
It can take up to 60 seconds for the
oven burner to come on to full rate,
and the oven burner may not come on
to full rate unless the oven door is
closed.
The automatic ignition will continue to
spark for a short time after the burner
has lit until the flame is established.
Adjust to the required setting.
To switch off, return the control knob to
the off position.
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.
Manual operation
The programmer must be set to
manual before the oven can be used
manually; if A(Auto) is showing on the
programmer display, press the cook
time and ready time buttons
simultaneously to reset to manual
operation.
Preheating
The oven must be preheated for 15
minutes when reheating frozen or
chilled food, and we recommend
preheating for yeast mixtures, batters,
soufflés and whisked sponges.
If you are not preheating the oven, the
cooking times in the Baking Guide
may need to be extended, as they are
based on a preheated oven.
Zones of heat
The temperature at the centre of the
oven corresponds with the selected
gas mark and is slightly higher
towards the top of the oven and
slightly lower towards the oven base.
These zones of heat can be useful as
different dishes requiring different
temperatures may be cooked at the
same time - eg; the temperature at the
oven base is suitable for cooking baked
vegetables, baked fruit, milk pudding,
etc, and for warming bread rolls,
soup, coffee, or plates and dishes.
If it is found over a period of time that
the oven becomes hotter when used at
a particular gas mark, the thermostat
may need to be replaced.

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 350 mm x 280 mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
20 small cakes.
Roasting tin 370 mm x 320 mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.
Oven shelves
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand facing up.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
Slow cooking
• Make sure that frozen foods are
thoroughly THAWED before cooking.
• Do not slow cook joints of meat
or poultry weighing more than
21⁄4 kg / 41⁄2lb.
• For roasting joints of meat or
poultry and for pot roasts preheat
the oven to gas mark 6 and cook
for 30 minutes, then adjust the
oven control to ‘S’ slow set for the
remainder of the cooking time.
• Always use the top half of the oven
when slow cooking.
• Slow cooking times will be about
three times as long as conventional
cooking times.

Cooking frozen & chilled foods
• When cooking frozen or chilled foods,
please follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. If cooking more than
one tray or item, cooking times
may need to be increased.
• Please ensure that foods are
piping hot before consumption.
• Always use the temperature
setting stated on food packaging
when cooking convenience food.
• Preheat the oven if requested.
• Never overload the tray - eg; oven
chips should be placed onto the
baking tray in one even layer for
satisfactory cooking.
• Follow the cooking times given on
packaging but remember they are
only intended as a guide and do
not take individual preferences
into account.
• Always cook frozen convenience
foods straight from the freezer
unless packaging advises otherwise.
Baking guide - hints
To protect a very rich fruit cake during
cooking, stand the tin larger tin or tie
2 layers of brown paper around the tin.
Cooking times for pastry dishes
depend on the size and type of
cooking dish and also the filling.
When cooking 2 trays of items,
remove the top item when it is cooked
and raise the lower item to the higher
shelf to finish cooking, or where
additional browning of the base is
required - eg; pies and pastries -
interchange part way through cooking.

Traditional fruit cakes
It should be remembered that ovens
can vary over time, therefore cooking
times can vary, making it difficult to be
precise when baking fruit cakes.
It is necessary, therefore, to test the
cake before removal from the oven.
Use a fine warmed skewer inserted
into the centre of the cake. If the
skewer comes out clean, then the cake
is cooked.
• Do not attempt to make Christmas
cakes larger than the oven can
cope with; you should allow at
least 25 mm (1 inch) space
between the oven walls and the tin.
• Always follow the temperatures
recommended in the recipe.
• To protect a very rich fruit cake
during cooking, tie 2 layers of
brown paper around the tin.
• We recommend that the cake tin is
not stood on layers of brown
paper, as this can hinder effective
circulation of air.
• Do not use soft tub margarine for
rich fruit cakes unless specified in
the recipe.
• Always use the correct size and
shape of tin for the recipe quantities.
Roast turkey
Roasting turkey perfectly involves
cooking two different types of meat -
the delicate light breast meat, which
must not be allowed to dry out, and
the darker leg meat, which takes
longer to cook.
The turkey must be roasted long
enough for the legs to cook, so
frequent basting is necessary. The
breast meat can be covered once
browned.
• Turkey should be roasted at
gas mark 4 for 20 minutes per lb,
plus 20 minutes unless packaging
advises otherwise.
• The turkey can be open roasted,
breast side down, for half of the
cook time, and then turned over for
the remainder of the cooking time.
• If the turkey is stuffed, add 5
minutes per lb to the cooking time.
• If roasting turkey covered with
foil, add 5 minutes per 1lb to the
cooking time.
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a
fine skewer into the thickest part of the
thigh. If the juices run clear, the turkey
is cooked. If the juices are still pink,
the turkey will need longer cooking.

Roasting guide
The times given in the roasting guide
are only approximate, because the
size and age of the bird will influence
cooking times as will the shape of a
joint and the proportion of the bone.
Frozen meat should be thoroughly
thawed before cooking. For large
joints it is advisable to thaw overnight.
Frozen poultry should be thoroughly
thawed before cooking. The time
required depends on the size of the
bird - eg; a large turkey may take up
to 48 hours to thaw.
Use of a trivet with a roasting tin will
reduce fat splashing and will help to keep
the oven interior clean. Alternatively,
to help reduce fat splashing, potatoes
or other vegetables can be roasted
around the meat / poultry.
Notes;
• When cooking stuffed meat or
poultry, calculate the cooking time
from the total weight of the meat
plus the stuffing.
• For joints cooked in foil or covered
roasters, and for lidded casseroles,
add 5 minutes per 450 g (1 lb) to
the calculated cooking time.
• Smaller joints weighing less than
1.25 kg (21⁄2lb) may require 5
minutes per 450 g (1lb) extra
cooking time.
• Position the oven shelf so that the
meat or poultry will be in the
centre of the oven.

Automatic cooking
The automatic cooking facility is
controlled by the programmer (see
‘Programmer / Clock’ section) and
allows complete meals, or individual
dishes to be cooked while you are out
of the house, to be ready for when you
return. The ‘READY TIME’ should be set
as close as possible to, or just after,
your anticipated return, so food is not
left standing in a warm oven.
Do:
• Select foods which are fresh as
possible, and as cold as possible -
ie; preferably straight from the
refrigerator.
• Choose foods which are suitable
for cooking from a cold start, as
some dishes will be affected by
being left uncooked, at room
temperature, perhaps for several
hours - eg; a wet filling on a
pastry base.
• Make sure that meat and poultry
are thoroughly thawed (but still
cold from the refrigerator) before
placing them in the oven, and avoid
using rolled joints of meat, which
can be more susceptible to the
growth of food poisoning organisms.
• Cover dishes with lids or foil to
keep the food moist, and protect
from possible contamination; the food
can be uncovered towards the end
of cooking to crisp and brown.
Do not:
• Warm food should never be
placed in the oven if there is a
delay period.
• Stews prepared by frying the
meat and vegetables first should
be cooked as soon as possible,
or refrigerating prior to placing in
the oven.
• Some dishes are not suitable for
cooking on automatic - eg; dishes
containing left over meat or
poultry, dishes containing eggs,
cooked rice, or seafood.
• Do not put food items (intended
for automatic cooking) into a
warm oven; allow the oven to cool
before setting for automatic cooking.
• Do not over fill dishes containing
liquids, as they might boil over.
• Never leave food in the oven to
cool slowly after cooking; serve
immediately or refrigerate.
• Never use the automatic facility to
reheat ‘cook chill’ foods, as they
should go straight from the
refrigerator into a preheated oven.
• To help keep foods as cool as
possible, do not leave the oven
lights on when the oven is set for
automatic cooking.
23894 02 - Q901G/900G RS2 03/04/2001 14:19 Page 15

USING THE OVEN
Important: Food is more susceptible
to the growth of food poisoning
organisms in warm conditions. If the
weather is hot, either take care to
ensure that food is not left standing in
a warm oven, or avoid using the
automatic cooking facility.
Hints for automatic cooking
• Food is placed in a cold oven so
you will need to add about 10 -
15 minutes onto the cooking time
to allow for the oven to reach the
selected temperature.
• Wine or beer may ferment, and
cream may curdle during the delay
period, so it is best to add these
ingredients just before serving.
• Potatoes should be parboiled or
brushed with oil to prevent
discolouration during the delay
period.
• Meat can be brushed with oil to
prevent it drying.
• Lemon juice can be added to
certain fruits and vegetables such
as apples, pears, turnips and
parsnips to prevent discolouration
during the delay period.
