9USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP
Using your gas hotplates
NOTE: Gas controls turn anticlockwise from ‘Off’ and
have limited movement.
Lighting the burners
Electronic ignition
These hobs are fitted with mains powered electronic
ignition. When the appliance has been connected
and the power is on, depressing any knob will release
sparks to all burners. To light a burner, depress the
corresponding knob and while continuing to depress
knob turn anti-clockwise to ‘HI’ position. The knob may
be released once the flame is established, and turned
further anti-clockwise to r,educe the flame height
as desired.
The burners are equipped with a flame failure device
providing security in case of an accidentally extinguished
flame. If such a case occurs, the device will block the
burners gas lines and will avoid any accumulation of
unburned gas. Wait 90 seconds before re-igniting an
extinguished gas burner
WARNING
WARNING
• Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.
• If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob
to ‘Off’ position, allow gas to disperse, then try
lighting again.
• Burners MUST be operated between ‘HIGH’ and
‘LOW’ settings only.
ENVIRONMENTAL TIPS
ENVIRONMENT
To conserve gas, place the pan centrally over the burner
and adjust the flame so that it does not go past the edge
of the cookware.
Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most
economic way of using gas is to choose the correct
size gas burners for your cooking pan size and to bring
the flame to minimum position once the boiling point
is reached. It is recommended to always cover your
cooking pan. In order to obtain maximum performance
from the main burners, use pots with the following flat
bottom diameters. Using smaller pots than the minimum
dimensions stated below will cause energy loss.
Intense heat wok Burner: 22-26cm
Medium heat (Semi-rapid) Burner: 14-22cm
Low heat (auxiliary) Burner: 12-18cm
Make sure that the tips of the flames do not spread out of
USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP
the outer circumference of the pan, as this may also harm
the plastic accessories around the pan (handles etc.).
NOTE: In the absence of electrical power, carry out
the ignition directly to the burner with a hand held
ignition source.

• Even though the heating element turns off the oven
will still retain substantial heat. This will continue to
cook the food until it is removed or the oven cools
down. If you do not plan on being present when the
oven turns off, you should take this extra heating
time into account.
• Turn the function and temperature controls to the
off position.
• Press any button to stop the timer beeping.
Cooling/Venting fan
Your appliance is fitted with a cooling fan.
This prevents your appliance from overheating and
reduces the condensation inside the oven. It will operate
whenever you are using your oven or grill and will expel
warm air from the appliance. In some
appliances the cooling fan may continue to operate after
the appliance is turned off. It will switch off by itself once
the oven is cool
Condensation
Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may
happen when you are cooking large quantities of food
from a cold start. You can minimise condensation by:
• Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking
to a minimum.
• Making sure that the oven door is firmly closed.
• Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly
smaller than the water container.
• Cooking casseroles with the lid on.
NOTE: If you are using water in cooking, this will turn to
steam and may condense outside your appliance. This is
not a problem or fault with your oven.

Get to know your new oven with this ‘Simple Test Cake’
Although we strive for a perfect performing oven, it’s
possible that there will be some variation in colour
when baking. Therefore, we suggest this simple, easy
and delicious to make Simple Test Cake, it can help you
understand your new oven. All ovens do sometimes have
hot or cold spots, therefore it is important to judge with
your eye as you may require to rotate during baking.
‘Simple Test Cake’
125g butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup caster sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla essence
4 large eggs
2 cups self-raising flour
pinch of salt
4 tablespoons (80ml) full-cream milk
NOTE: If desired substitute butter for either margarine
or olive oil spread. Recipe is based on the Australian
standard metric 250ml cup and 20ml tablespoon sets.
Method:
1. Butter base and sides of two 20cm straight-sided
round or square cake pans. Then line the base with
grease proof or baking paper.
2. Preheat oven to moderate ‘180°C’ (170°C fan
forced) and ensure oven shelf is in the centre
position of oven.
3. Cream softened butter and sugar until light in colour.
4. Add vanilla essence.
5. Then eggs one at a time, beating well after each
addition.
6. Sift flour and salt into the mixture and beat until
well combined.
7. Add milk and beat or stir to combine.
8. Spoon mixture equally between prepared cake pans.
9. Bake in preheated oven, middle shelf for about 25
to 35 minutes or until when tested with a fine cake
skewer it comes out clean, or the edges of the
cakes have come away slightly from the sides of
the cake pans.
10. Remove from oven to wire cake rack and rest for 5
minutes before removing from cake pans.
Cool completely.
To Serve: sandwich together with your favourite jam or
conserve, and dust top with pure icing sugar.
• For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes.
• Select the correct shelf location for food being
cooked.
• Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you
switch it on.
• Keep edges of baking dishes at least 40mm from
the side of the oven. This allows free circulation of
heat and ensures even cooking.
• Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
• Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven
with other foods. This will cause food to steam and
not brown.
• After the oven is turned off it retains the heat
for some time. Use this heat to finish custards or to
dry bread.
• Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This
will prevent splattering oil on the sides of the oven
and the oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave
residue which is very difficult to remove.
• When cooking things which require a high heat from
below (e.g. tarts), place the cooking dish on a scone
tray in the desired shelf position.
• For sponges and cakes use aluminium, bright
finished or non-stick utensils.
• Remove unnecessary trays or dishes when roasting
or baking.
Oven shelf location
Your oven has five positions for shelves. These are
number from 1 (the lowest shelf position to 5 (the
highest shelf position) See diagram.
1. Rack
2. Rack
3. Rack
4. Rack
5. Rack
Shelf
positions
To give maximum space above and below the shelves,
load them in this way:
• When cooking with 1 shelf, use position 3 or 4.
• When cooking with 2 shelves, use position 1 and 4.
Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of food
at the same time. For example:
• Cook 2 trays of scones, small cakes or sausage rolls.

between 180°C and 200°C. (It is recommended to
wrap your meats in an oven roasting bag or foil to
prevent fats and oils from splattering, making it easier
to clean your oven.)
2. Use the grill/oven dish and grill insert.
Place the meat on the insert.
3. Do not pierce the meat, as this will allow juices
to escape.
4. When the meat is cooked, take the roast out of
the oven, wrap in aluminium foil and leave to stand
for about 10 minutes. This will help retain the
juices when the meat is carved. The table shows
temperatures and cooking times for different kinds
of meat. These may vary depending on the thickness
or bone content of the meat.

2. Place a layer of foil over the fish for about three
quarters of the cooking time.

Grilling Guide
WARNING
WARNING
Always clean the grill/oven dish after every use.
Excessive fat build up may cause a fire.
Grilling is conducted with the oven door closed
As a method of cooking, grilling can be used to:
• Enhance the flavours of vegetables, fish, poultry
and meat.
• Seal the surface of the food and retain the
natural juices.
This table shows how to grill different types of meat:
Beef Tenderloin, rump, sirloin. Brush with oil
or melted butter, especially if the meat is
very lean.
Lamb Loin chops, short loin chops, chump
chops, and forequarter chops. Remove
skin or cut at intervals to stop curling.
Brush with oil or melted butter.
Sausages Prick sausages to stop skin from bursting.
Poultry Divide into serving pieces. Brush with oil.
Fish Brush with oil or melted butter and
lemon juice.
Bacon Remove rind. Grill flat.
Guide to better grilling
Steak 15 – 20 minutes
Chops 20 – 30 minutes
Fish 8 – 10 minutes
Bacon 4 – 5 minutes
No definite times can be given for grilling because this
depends on your own tastes and the size of the food.
These times should only be used as a guide and remember
to turn the food over halfway through the cooking process.
For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:
1. Preheat grill for at least 5 minutes.
2. Choose only prime cuts of meat or fish. If the cut is
less than 5mm thick it will dry out. If the cut is more
than 40mm thick, the outside may burn whilst the
inside remains raw.
3. Do not place aluminium foil under the food as this
prevents fats and oils from draining away, which could
result in a fire.
4. Baste the food during cooking with butter, olive oil
or marinade. Grilled food is better if marinated
before cooking.
5. Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface
and will let juices escape.
Fan Grill
The “Fan Grill” assists the grilling process by circulating
the heat evenly around the food. The recommended
temperature setting is 180°C for all fan grilling functions.
1. Place the grill dish on the bottom rack.
2. Place meat/poultry on an oven shelf above the
grill dish.
3. Wipe off any oil or fat which spatters while the oven
is still warm.
