The Gas Hob Controls
To light a burner:
- Push the electric ignition button which is marked with
a little spark ( ).
- At the same time push in and turn the relevant control
knob anticlockwise to maximum position.
- Then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after installation or
a power cut, it is quite normal for the spark
generator to be activated automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only
use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used (see table).
Burner minimum maximum
diameter diameter
Large (rapid) 180 mm. 260 mm.
Medium(semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm.
Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread beyond
the bottom of the pan, causing the handle to
overheat.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the
flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as
the overheated splashes could easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Service Force Centre.

Always cook with the oven door closed.
Stand clear when opening the drop down oven
door. Do not allow it to fall open - support the
door using the door handle, until it is fully
open.
The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied with
two shelves.
The shelf positions are counted from the bottom
of the oven as shown in the diagram.
It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned.
Do not place cookware directly on the oven
base.
Using the Oven
Before the First Use of the Cooker
Remove all packaging, both inside and outside
the cooker, before using it.
Before first use, the oven should be heated without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is quite normal.
1. Ignite the gas oven burner and set the gas oven
control knob to "240".
2. Open a window for ventilation.
3. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45
minutes.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Do not clean the oven while it is still warm.

The minute minder will mark the end of a timed period
with an acoustic alarm. The maximum timing is 60
minutes.
Turn the Minute Minder knob clockwise to the maximum
time position, then turn it back to the required time.
The Minute minder will not affect in any way the oven
operation, if it is in use.
The Minute Minder

Cookware
• Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand
temperatures of 250°C.
• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven, or placed on the oven base.
• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm x 35 cm
(12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of
heat and may affect performance.
The effects of dishes
on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to
the food inside them.
AAluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright
shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
BEnamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,
aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured
exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking
and base browning.
To ignite the oven gas burner:
1. Open the oven door.
2. Push the electric ignition button which is marked
with a little spark ( ).
3. At the same time press the oven control knob and
turn it anti-clockwise until the maximum
temperature ("240") is reached.
4. Firmly press the oven control knob for
approximately 5 seconds, until the safety valve
automatically keeps the oven burner lit.
5. Release the control knob and then gently close the
oven door. To adjust the temperature, turn the knob
to the required setting after a few minutes.
If the oven burner accidentally goes out, turn
the oven knob to "" and wait at least 1
minute before trying to light the burner
again.
Using the Gas oven
Oven safety device
The cooker features a thermocouple; if for any reason
the flame should extinguish, the device will stop the gas
flow.

Condensation and Steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way
as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this
steam to escape. However, always stand back from
the oven when opening the oven door to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and
produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a
fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer is located underneath the oven
cavity.
During cooking the storage drawer may become
hot if the oven is on high for a long period of time,
thereforeflammablematerialssuchasovengloves,
tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not be
stored in the drawer.
Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will also
become hot, therefore care should be taken when
removing these items from the drawer whilst the
oven is in use or still hot.

Grilling
Grilling must be carried out with the oven door
closed. The grill pan handles must be removed
from the pan.
How to Use the Grill
1. Turn the oven control function knob to .
The grill pilot light will come on.
2. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow
for different thicknesses of food. Position the food
close to the element for faster cooking and further
away for more gentle cooking.
Preheat the grill for a few minutes before sealing steaks
or toasting. Adjust the shelf level as necessary, during
cooking.
Hints and Tips
- Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill
pan to allow maximum circulation of air and to lift
the food out of the fats and juices. Food such as
fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly on
the grill pan, if preferred
- Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to
minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish lightly
with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist
during cooking
- Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms
may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats
- When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner
position is used.
- The food should be turned over during cooking, as
required.

Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check
that they are suitable and that their use is recommended
by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door
seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little washing up liquid has been added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass
panels avoid the use of the following:
• Household detergent and bleaches
• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans
• Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
• Chemical oven pads or aerosols
• Rust removers
• Bath/Sink stain removers
The Hob Top
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage
can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well
wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid
has been added. Avoid the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is
recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob Brite
or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
The Pan Support
The pan support is dishwasher proof. If washing it by
hand, take care when drying it as the enamelling process
occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove
stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Cleaning the Oven
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy
water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well
moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used
with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to
remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be
carried out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker
from the electricity supply.
This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or
with a steam cleaning machine.
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially
in the grill pan.
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy
water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled
it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite, or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass panels
are warm. If this precaution is not observed the
glass panel may shatter.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has
deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and
must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the
panel shattering. Contact your local Service Force
Centre who will be pleased to advise further.

B) Burner Crown
C) Spark Electrode

11
Oven Shelves
To clean the oven shelves, soak in warm soapy water
and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap
impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be
necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a
proprietary oven cleaner.
Replacing the Oven Light
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity
supply.
If the oven bulb needs replacing, it must comply with
the following specifications:
- Electric power: 25W,
- Electric rate: 230V (50 Hz),

Fitting the Stability Bracket
(Not supplied)
If the cooker has to be installed with a flexible supply
pipe, it is necessary that a stability device is fitted.
(See "Important Safety Requirements").
The stability bracket is to be fitted by the installer and
these instructions should be read in conjunction with
the leaflet packed with the stability bracket.
Place the cooker in its intended position and level
cooker.
Mark off 295mm (11 1/2") from the right hand side of the
cooker as shown, this is the centre line of the bracket
fixing.
Draw a line 100mm (4") from the front edge of the
levelling feet (see Fig. 2) and remove cooker from its
position. Mark off 480mm (19") back from this line on
the centre line of the bracket to locate the front edge of
the lower bracket.
Fix lower bracket (with two fixing holes) to the floor, then
measure height from floor level to engagement edge on
back of cooker, dimension 'A' of Fig. 2.
Assemble upper bracket to lower bracket so that
underside of bracket is dimension 'A' +3mm (1/8") above
floor level. Re-position cooker and check that top
bracket engages into cooker back to a depth of 75mm
(3"), as shown in Fig. 2.
Should the stability bracket currently installed not allow
the cooker to stand correctly, ask the installer to replace
it with the correct type.

Connecting to Gas
This cooker is designed to be installed with an appliance
flexible connection. Connection is made to the RC 1/2
(1/2" B.S.P.) threaded entry pipe located just below the
hotplate level on the rear right-hand side of the cooker.
Check for gas soundness after connecting the gas
supply.
The gas bayonet connector must be fitted in the shaded
area indicated in the diagram. Take into account that it
must be possible to pull the cooker forward sufficiently.
The hose must not get caught on the stability bracket.
Note:
For certain types of gas bayonet connection used, it
may not be possible for the appliance to be pushed fully
back to the wall stops.
Important:
Flexible tubing MUST comply with BS.669 Current
Edition.

Electrical connections
Any electrical work required to install this cooker
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.
This cooker is designed to be connected to a 230V 50Hz
AC electrical supply.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply
voltage is the same as that indicated on the cooker
rating plate. The rating plate is located on the oven
frame.
The cooker is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply
cord incorporating a 13amp plug fitted. In the event of
having to change the fuse, a 13amp ASTA approved
(BS 1362) fuse must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason,
the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
— Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with
the letter 'E' or the earth symbol or
coloured green and yellow. The earth wire
should be about 2 cm longer than the neutral
and live wires.
— Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'N'
or coloured black.
— Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'L'
or coloured red.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands
of wire present and the cord clamp must be secure
over the outer sheath.
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket
is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that
the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
Permanent Connection
In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary
that you install a double pole switch between the cooker
and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap
of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type
suitable for the required load in compliance with the
current electric regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth
wire at any point. The earth wire should be about 2 cm
longer than the neutral and live wires.
Ensure that the cooker supply cable does not
come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.

Conversion from Natural to LPG Gas
IMPORTANT
The replacement/conversion of the appliance
should only be undertaken by a registered engineer
or competent person.
It is important to note that this model is designed for
use with natural gas but can be converted for use with
butane or propane gas providing the correct injectors
are fitted. The gas rate is adjusted to suit.
The oven burner and the hob burners do not
need any primary air regulation.
Replacement of gas hob
burner nozzles
• Ensure that the gas taps are in the 'OFF' position
• Isolate the appliance from the electricity supply
• Remove all pan supports, burner caps, rings, crowns
and control knobs.
• With the aid of a 7mm box spanner, the burner
injectors can then be unscrewed and replaced by
the appropriate LPG injectors (see Technical Data).
Commissioning
When the hob has been fully installed it will be
necessary to check the minimum flame setting. To do
this, follow the procedure below.
- Turn the gas tap to the MAX position and ignite.
- Set the gas tap to the MIN flame position then turn
the control knob from MIN to MAX several times. If
the flame is unstable or is extinguished follow the
procedure below.
Procedure:
- Re-ignite the burner and set to MIN.
- Remove the control knob. According to the different
gas tap versions, the adjustment screw can be
located down the centre of the gas tap control shaft
or on the gas tap body itself (see diagram).
- To adjust, use a thin bladed screwdriver and turn
the adjustment screw until the flame is steady and
does not extinguish, when the knob is turned from
MIN to MAX. Repeat this procedure for all burners.
Pressure Testing
- Remove left hand pan support and front left burner
cap and crown.
- Fit manometer tube over the injector.
- Turn on the burner gas supply and ignite another
burner supply.
- The pressure reading should be nominally 20mbar
and must be between 17 mbar and 25mbar.
- Turn off the burner supplies.

3. Gently slide the oven gas burner off the injector
support (“D”) and slowly move it to the left hand
side, taking care not to cause stress to the spark
plug connection wire (“E”) and the thermocouple
(“F”) conductor;
3. With a socket spanner 7 unscrew and remove the
gas burner injector (“D”), and replace it with the
required one (see "Technical Data");
4. Reassemble the burner following the same proce-
dure in reverse.
5. Replace the Gas Type Sticker (it is located near the
gas connection ramp) with the one relevant to the
new gas type which is supplied with the injector kit.
Minimum level adjustment
of gas oven burner
After setting the oven on maximum temperature with
door closed for about 10 minutes, turn the knob to
minimum.
To reach the thermostat by-pass screw and adjust the
minimum level, act as follows:
– take out the gas oven control knob;
– in case of conversion from natural gas to LPG, tightly
screw the by-pass screw of thermostat (see diagram,
letter "G");
– to convert from LPG to natural gas, unscrew the
by-pass screw, until a regular small flame is reached.
– finally check that turning quickly the tap from
maximum position to minimum position, the flame
does not go out;
– reassemble the knobs.
