ŸRemove all packing materials and protective film, where used
ŸMake sure that the area behind the stove is kept clear and that there are no flammable
materials above the stove. At the back of the stove is a flue for the oven burner and hot air
will rise from this area. It is best to keep the stove about 150 mm away from the wall.
ŸEnsure that the top burners and burner caps are correctly fitted into their specific locations
ŸCheck that the pot support grids are in place.
3. Preparing the appliance for use
pot lid or a wet towel. Never throw water onto the flames as this will not extinguish
them and may even cause the flames to spread.
ŸMake sure that flammable materials are not place closer than 500 mm to the stove.
ŸWhere the stove is placed adjacent to work tops or cupboards, keep a minimum clearance
of 50 mm between the sides of the stove and the work tops or cupboards.
ŸThis stove is equipped with battery powered semi automatic ignition.(see Fig 5) The battery is
housed in a recessed box at the back of the stove on the right hand side towards to bottom It is
protected by a removable cover plate. To fit or change the battery remove the cover plate. When
fitting or changing a battery ensure the battery is a Type D LR20 (1,5v). Once the battery, is fitted
remember to replace and secure the cover plate (see Fig 6).
ŸRepeat the above process to ignite the other burners as required.
ŸTurning the control knob in a clockwise direction from the mid position will again reduce the
flame level and it the knob is turn fully in a clockwise direction it will shut down the burner.
ŸTo adjust the flame to the required level, turn the burner control knob further in an anti clockwise
direction to reduce the flame. If turned to fully in this direction the flame will continue to burn at
the simmer position. Turning the control knob back to the mid position will give the maximum
flame level.
ŸThe flame height of the oven burner can be adjusted by turning in an anti clockwise direction to
ŸTo light the oven burner, open the oven door and with the light a match or hand held igniter torch.
Turn the Oven control knob to the high position (See Figs.2 & 5) and then place the lit match or
igniter torch to the hole in the centre front of the oven floor(see Fig. 6). This will ignite the oven
burner.
ŸTo light the cooker burners. Push in and turn the control knob of the burner you wish to light in an
anti clockwise direction to the mid position (see Figs. 2 & 3) and then press the ignitor button(See
Fig.2). This will create the ignitor spark to all burners at the same time but only the burner you
have activated will ignite. Once the burner is ignited, continue to hold the control knob in the
pushed in position for about 10 seconds to allow the flame failure sensor (see Fig.5) to recognise
that the burner is alight and then release the knob. The burner flame should remain lit. If it does
not, repeat the above process and hold the knob in for a few more seconds once the flame is lit.
ŸIf for any reason the ignition system does not function - e.g. in the case of a flat ignitor battery,
then hold a lit match or igniter torch to the selected burner with the control knob at the ignite
position and pushed in. The burner will then ignite.
ŸIt is not necessary or desired to put the lit match or igniter through the hole. All that is required is
to offer it up to the hole and that will ignite the oven burner.
ŸNote that each burner is fitted with a flame failure sensor which will shut off the gas supply if the
burner flame goes out (see Fig. 5). After lighting the burner hold the control knob in the pressed
in position for 5-10 seconds to allow the flame failure sensor to function correctly, If the fame
goes out when the knob is released, repeat the light procedure and hold the control knob in for a
few more seconds
4. Lighting the Burners
ŸTo clean the enameled and stainless steel surfaces of the appliance use a wet cloth or non
abrasive sponge and a mild soapy detergent. Abrasive cleaners and scourers should not be
used as this may permanently damage the surface.
ŸTo turn off the oven burner turn the oven control knob fully in a clockwise direction.
ŸThe pot support grids may be immersed in a soapy solution in order to clean them. Take note of
the locations for the pot supports to make sure they are firmly in place once refitted.
ŸWhen placing food in the oven, always place the food on the wire grid supplied with the stove.
Best results will be obtained with the grid in the middle position.
ŸWhen cooking using the top burner always use the burner that suits the pot size. For pots
smaller that 200 mm diameter use the medium burners. For larger pots use the large burner This
will ensure that you will achieve the best cooking efficiency. If the flame appears to extend up the
sides of the pot either place the pot on a smaller burner or reduce the flame height by adjusting
the required burner control knob.
ŸNever let water dry or evaporate on the cleaned surfaces as this may cause stains . It is best to
dry the cleaned surfaces immediately after cleaning.
ŸPre heat the oven for 10 minutes on a medium heat before placing any food in the oven.
ŸWhen cleaning the area around the burners never let water get into the burner ports as this may
prevent them from igniting or operating correctly.
ŸNever place any food or container on the oven floor.
ŸTo remove the burners from the stove top, firstly remove the pot support grids an place them to
one side. Lift off the burner caps from the burners and then lit out the burners from the stove top,
noting the relative positions of the medium and large burners.(See Figs. 2 & 3)
ŸIn the event that water does get into the burner ports, remove the burners from the stove and
shake them dry. Also blow through them to make sure that no water remains in the burners
before placing them back on the stove.
ŸWhilst it is acceptable to wash the burner caps in a soapy water solution it is best to simply wipe
the burners wit a damp cloth soaked in a detergent solution rather than to immerse them. Be
sure to make sure the burners and burner caps are dry before replacing them in their original
positions.
ŸClean the stove top and oven afer every use to prevent the build up of fat or food particles which if
left may be difficult to remove.
ŸAvoid opening the oven door during cooking as this will affect the cooking time. Examine the
food through the window in the oven door.
increase the flame and in a clockwise direction to decrease it.
ŸWhen using the oven, always open or close the oven door slowly to avoid air movement
which could affect the flame.
ŸFor details of the oven temperature settings refer to the Table and Fig. 7 below
