SPECIFICATION

This appliance must be installed in accordance with the local, national and European
regulations in force. Particular attention shall be given to the requirements regarding
ventilation. Read the instructions before installing or using the appliance
The appliance is designed for either high or low level installations. Failure to install the
appliance correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims and lead to prosecution.
Please refer to the methods of installation within this handbook.
Our policy is one of continuous development and improvement. Specifications and
illustrations may change subsequent to publication.
Provision Of Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in a
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 a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present. The room containing the appliance should have an
air supply in accordance with local, national and European standards.
Position
This appliance must be positioned free from draughts, which may affect the combustion
and in a manner that will prevent the accumulation of unburnt gas. When in use ensure
that air vents are not inadvertently blocked or shut off.
We recommend that all ventilation holes in the appliance cabinet are baffled, to prevent
direct draughts on the appliance.
Ensure the gas cylinder is turned on.
In the event of a gas smell, turn off at the cylinder and contact supplier.
The burners on this appliance have fixed aeration and no adjustment is required.
Depending on the gas being used, the burners should flame as follows:-
Propane - The flames should burn quietly with a blue/green colour with no sign of
yellow tips.
Butane - Normally on initial lighting, a small amount of yellow tipping will occur.
This then slightly increases as the burner heats up.
All burners are controlled individually and each is monitored by a thermocouple probe. In
the event the burner flames are accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and
do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute
INTRODUCTION
•
Before using the appliance for the first time, remove all accessories and
packing in the grill and oven, including any plastic surfa
ce protection film.
•Clean all surfaces with hot soapy water to remove any residual
protective covering of oil and rinse carefully.
OPERATION

7
Gas Burners
(1) Ensure gas supply is connected and turned on. (2) Push in the control knob and turn
anticlockwise to full rate – large flame ( ). (3) Continue depressing the knob whilst
holding a lighted match to the burner. (4) After the burner is lit continue depressing the
knob for approximately 10 - 15 seconds. (5) Release knob and turn to required heat
setting. (6) If burner has not lit within 15 seconds, release knob and wait at least 1 minute
before repeating operations (2) to (5). (7) To turn off, rotate the control knob until the line
on the knob is aligned with dot on the control panel.
For models fitted with Spark Ignition the procedure is similar except that the burner is
ignited by depressing the ignition button located on the fascia.
Always make sure the control knob is in the off position when you have finished using the
hotplate burners.
Electric Hotplate (Dual Fuel Models Only)
(1) Ensure the electricity is switched on. (2) The hotplate control is numbered from 1 (Low)
to 6 (High). To turn it on, rotate the knob either clockwise or anti-clockwise to the required
heat setting. (3) To turn the hotplate off, rotate the knob until the line or pointer on the knob
lines up with the zero on the control panel.
The hotplate is a sealed construction and transfers heat through conduction. For maximum
efficiency use the correct size pan with a flat heavy gauge base. The pan size should be
the same or slightly larger than the hotplate (up to 1” / 2.5 cm oversize).
Before using your hotplate for the first time, we recommend that you prime and then
season it.
To prime the hotplate:-
Switch on the hotplate for a short period, without a pan, to harden and burn off the coating.
Use a medium to high setting for 3 – 5 minutes. A non toxic smoke may occur during this
process. Allow it to cool, then season.
To season the hotplate:-
Heat the hotplate for 30 seconds on a medium setting, then switch off. Pour a minimal
amount of unsalted vegetable oil onto a clean dry cloth or paper towel, and apply a thin
coat of oil to the hotplate surface. Wipe off any excess oil, then heat the hotplate on a
medium setting for 1 minute. Occasional seasoning will help to maintain the appearance.
OPERATION
•
Avoid old or misshapen pans as these may cause instability.
•The two in line Hob burners on this appliance will support pans from 10 to
20cm. The single hob burner will support pans from 10 to 22cm.
•Using larger pans may reduce performance or cause damage
• The lid must be opened fully prior to using the hotplate burners .
•
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the
appliance
•Glass lids may shatter when heated. Turn off all burners and hotplate and
allow to cool before closing the glass lid.
•
Remove all spillage from the surface of the glass lid before opening.

Using The Grill
(1) Ensure gas cylinder/supply is connected and turned on. (2) Open door, push in the
control knob and turn clockwise to the large flame symbol ( ). (3) Continue depressing
the knob whilst holding a lighted match to the burner. (4) After the burner is lit continue
depressing the knob for approximately 10 - 15 seconds before releasing the knob. (5) If
burner has not lit within 15 seconds, release knob and wait at least 1 minute before
repeating operations (2) to (4). (6) To turn off, rotate the control knob until the line on the
knob is aligned with dot on the control panel. (7) Always make sure the control knob is in
the off position when you have finished grilling.
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 door open.
On first use of the grill, it should be heated for about 20 minutes to eliminate any residual
factory lubricants that might impart unpleasant smells to the food being cooked. A non-
toxic smoke may occur when using for the first time, open any windows and turn on
mechanical ventilators to help remove the smoke.
Although the grill heats up quickly, it is recommended that a few minutes preheat be
allowed.
It is normal for the flames on this burner to develop yellow tips as it heats up.
Depending on the food to be cooked the correct grilling height can be achieved by
inverting the pan trivet into either the high or low position
•
The control tap on this appliance operates both the Grill and Oven
burner. To ensure safe operation it is not possible to operate both
burners at the same time.
•The grill must only be used with the door open
•Prior to lighting the grill the heat deflector below the fascia should be
pulled out.
• Never adjust the heat deflector without using hand protection – ie oven
gloves.
OPERATION
•The grill pan supplied is multi functional, for use in grill or oven.
•The handle design allows removal or insertion whilst the pan is in use.
•
Care should be taken when removing pans from the grill, i.e. use of oven
gloves, and by making use of the removal grill pan handle.
•Always remove the handle when the pan is in use.

Using The Oven
(1) Ensure gas cylinder/supply is connected and turned on. (2) Open door, push in the
control knob and turn to full rate (Gas Mark 9, 240°C). (3) Continue depressing the knob
whilst holding a lighted match to the burner. (4) After the burner is lit continue depressing
the knob for approximately 10 - 15 seconds. (5) Release the knob and turn to required
heat setting. (6) If the burner has not lit within 15 seconds, release knob and wait at least 1
minute before repeating operations (2) to (5). (7) Place the oven shelf in the required
position and close the door. (8) Although the oven heats up quickly, it is recommended
that a 10 minutes preheat be allowed. The oven should reach full temperature in about 15-
20mins. (9) To turn off, rotate the control knob until the line on the knob is aligned with dot
on the control panel. (9) Always make sure the control knob is in the off position when you
have finished.
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 door open.
The oven shelf has been designed to allow good circulation at the rear of the oven. A
raised bar at the rear of the shelf prevents trays or dishes making contact with the back of
the oven. To remove a shelf, pull forward until it stops, raise at front and remove.
Installation of a shelf is the reverse of this procedure.
Temperature Control
The temperature in the oven is controlled by a thermostatic gas tap and is variable over
the range 130°C to 240°C. 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 and centre, and centre to bottom is approximately equivalent to
one gas mark. Good use can be made of the temperature variation in 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 to ensure free
circulation of heat. When roasting with aluminium foil ensure the foil does not impair
circulation of heat or block anythe oven flue outlet.
OPERATION
Before using your oven for the first time we recommend the following procedure:-
Clean all surfaces with hot soapy water. Light the oven and set control knob to
Gas Mark 5 (200°C). Heat the oven for about 30 minu tes to eliminate any
residual factory lubricants that might impart unpleasant smells to cooked food.
A non-toxic smoke may occur during this procedure, open any windows and turn
on mechanical ventilators to help remove the smoke.
•The pans and trays supplied with this appliance are the maximum sizes
recommended for use. Larger pans and trays may restrict good
circulation of heat, increasing cooking times.
•Always ensure food is properly cooked prior to serving.

10
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
appliance.
DO NOT under any circumstances use the oven as a space heater.
DO NOT put heavy objects onto open grill and oven doors.
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.
Butane/Propane gas is heavier than air; 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 unlighted appliance. Never check for
leaks with a naked flame, leak investigation should be carried out using a leak detector
spray.
