INSTALLATION
This cooker must be installed in
accordance with the IEE Wiring Regulations
(Current Edition). Detailed recommendations
are contained in the following British Standards
Codes Of Practice:
B.S. 6172/ B.S. 5440, Par.2 and B.S. 6891 Current
Editions.
The appliance must be installed in accordance with
" Y " specification (EN60.335-2.6). The cooker
must not be installed higher than the worktop.
Please ensure that when the appliance is
installed it is easily accessible for the engineer
in the event of a breakdown.
Before your appliance is connected to the mains
electricity supply, check to ensure that the voltage
and the frequency shown on the rating plate
correspond with your supply voltage.
This appliance must be earthed.
LOCATION
The appliance must not be installed in a bed-sitting
room of volume less than 20m3 or in a bathroom or
shower room. It is essential that the appliance is
positioned as in the enclosed figure i.e. shelves, wall
cabinets and cooker hoods must be fitted a minimum
of 690mm directly above the top of hotplate and
400mm above the hotplate when fitted in line with the
outside of the appliance. If the units are intended to
be fitted adjacent to the appliance but less than
400mm above the hotplate, then a minimum space of
100mm must be maintained between the sides of
the unit and the appliance (see fig).
If fitted next to or between two base units a
minimum space of 1mm must be left between each
unit and the sides of the appliance. The levelling
feet fitted to the appliance will achieve a nominal
height to hotplate of 900mm+10mm.
The appliance must be installed in accordance with
EN 1116-1995, regarding the depth of the superior
furniture.
The appliance must be set on a heatproof
floor. The adjustable feet must not be removed.
Levelling
The appliance is provided with adjustable small
feet placed in the back and front corners of the
base.
By adjusting the small feet it is possible to change
the height of the appliance so as to ensure a better
levelling with other surfaces and an even
distribution of the liquids contained in pots and
pans.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Any electrical work required to install
this hob and the supply cable should be
carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person, in accordance with the
current regulations.
THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability
should these safety measures not be
observed.
Before any maintenance or cleaning can
be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the
cooker from the electricity supply.
This cooker is designed to be connected to a
230-240V AC, 50Hz electrical supply.
To connect to the electricity supply, use cable
type H05 RR-F.
Before connection, make sure the electricity
supply voltage is the same as that indicated on
the rating plate.
The cooker is supplied without supply cable. A
flexible supply cable must be fitted, in
accordance with the specification gived in the
relevant table no. 1.
The electrical connection should be made using
a double pole-isolating switch (cooker control
switch) with at least 3mm contact separation in
all poles. The cable must have conductors of
sufficiently high cross-sectional area to prevent
overheating or deterioration.
The switch should be sited within 2m of the
cooker and be easily accessible at all times.
The switch must not interrupt the yellow-green
grounding cable.
NOTE: The earth wire should be about 2 cm
longer than the live and neutral wires.
After installation and connecting, the cable must
be placed so that it cannot at any point reach a
temperature of more than 50°C above the
ambient temperature.
The manufacturer disclaims any responsibility
should these safety instructions not be carried
out.
If the supply cable is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agent or a similarly qualified person
in order to avoid a hazard.
Before connecting check that:
• The fuse and household electrical
installation can carry the absorbed current of
the appliance (see rating plate);
• The cooker connection outlet or the cooker
control switch is easily accessible when the
appliance is installed.
How to proceed?
• Unscrew and remove the protective cover at
the back of the appliance;
• Connect the power cable to the terminal
block of the cooker according to the table
no.1;
• Secure by means of cable clamp;
• Make sure that the connection to the
terminal block is matching the supply
system, see table no.1;
• Refit and screw the protective cover on the
back of the appliance.

USE OF APPLIANCE
Before the First Use of the Oven
Before the first use ensure that the
room is well ventilated: V.M.C.
(Mechanic ventilation) or opened
window.
Remove all packaging, both inside and
outside the oven, before using the oven.
Before first use, the oven should be heated
without food. During this time, an unpleasant
odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.
1. Remove the oven accessories.
2. Remove any adhesive labels or protective
films, if there are any.
3. Heat the oven the corresponding knob on
position “250” for about 45 min.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Clean the accessories with a soft detergent.
Rinse and dry carefully.
Rating Plate
The model number of your cooker can be found
on the rating plate on the lower front frame of
the cooker upon opening the door.
The cooker must be protected by a suitably
rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the
cooker is given on the rating plate.
Condensation and steam
Condensation may form on the cooker. This is
quite normal and nothing to worry about.
The condensation water forms when heat and
moisture are present, for example during cooking.
However, always stand back from the oven
when opening the door to allow any build up of
steam or heat to release.
In order to reduce to minimum the quantity of
condensation water you should take the
following actions:
- Whenever possible try to make sure that food
which contains lots of moisture, for example
casseroles, are covered;
- Preheat the oven for about 15-20 minutes
before introducing the food to be roasted or
baked.
Cookware
Use any ovenproof cookware, which will
withstand temperatures of 250°C.
Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly on the oven base.
During cooking in the oven the oven
door is hot. Take care that children do
not play near it.

ELECTRIC OVEN
Oven Function Control Knob
The control knob is used to select the desired
temperature and to select either the grill or oven
function.
0 Oven switched off
50-250 Temperature selection (bottom and top
heat)
Grill - The grill cannot be used at the
same time as the oven. The oven door must be
closed when grilling.
The grill temperature is not adjustable and always
operates at maximum.
For oven cooking use the control knob to select
the desired temperature between 50º – 250ºC.
Caution
Do not place pans, dripping pans, baking trays or
aluminium foil directly on the base of the oven.
This could cause a heat build-up, which could
affect the performance of the oven and damage
the oven enamel.
Cooking in the oven
Traditional cooking
Traditional cooking is made by natural convection
of the heated air.
It is necessary to pre-heat the oven.
How to proceed?
For small cakes, pastry, beaten mixture cakes in
moulds.
1. Preheat the oven at the selected baking
temperature until the thermostat will
disconnect. Then the flash lamp will turn off.
2. Insert the meal.
Oven thermostat pilot light
Once the oven temperature has been selected,
the oven thermostat pilot light will come on and
remain on until the oven has reached the correct
setting; after that, it will go on and off with the
thermostat, showing that the temperature is being
maintained.
Cooker operation pilot light (Main)
This light will illuminate when the oven function
control knob or any of the hotplate knobs are
turned on and remains lit while these are in use.
