RATING PLATE
Record the model and serial numbers on the back
cover from the rating plate. This is situated on the
lower front frame of the cooker and can be seen
upon opening the fan oven 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.
INSTALLATION
If your cooker has been damaged in transit, contact
your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install
it.
Your cooker left the factory fully packaged to protect
it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging
and damage has occurred, the manufacturer cannot
accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for
advice.
Once the packaging has been removed the cooker
should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack
barrow or any other aid to lift the cooker as damage
may occur.
Connection to the electricity supply must be carried
out by a qualified electrician/competent person.
The electrical connection should be made using a
double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at
least 3mm contact separation. The cable must have
conductors of sufficiently high cross-sectional area to
prevent overheating and deterioration.
The cable should be routed away from potentially hot
areas marked by X in the diagram below.
To move the cooker, open the fan oven door, and lift
the cooker by holding inside the top of the
compartment.
This is a type Y cooker which means it is
free-standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one
or both sides. It may also be fitted in a corner
setting.
Ensure that the cooker is standing level.
Side walls which are above hob level should be
protected by heat resistant non-combustible material
and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob
side.
A nominal air gap of 2mm at the sides of the cooker
is required to enable the cooker to be moved into
position.
A spacer has been incorporated into the back of the
appliance to ensure an air gap of 10mm is
maintained at hotplate level. Tiles or other forms of
deep wall covering should not obscure this gap.
8
WARNING: THIS COOKER MUST BE EARTHED
INTRODUCTION
REAR VIEW
Six square millimetres (6.00mm²) is the recommended
cross-section area.

Note: Vapours from the oven vents may in time
cause discolouration of wallcoverings behind the
cooker. For ease of cleaning it may be preferable to
tile behind the cooker.
Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a
minimum of 685mm above the hob.
It is important to ensure that the cooker is level after
installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front of the
cooker to accommodate uneven floors.
REVERSIBLE OVEN DOOR
If you require the oven door to be hinged on the
opposite side, you will need to contact a qualified
Service Engineer. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will
be made. See the enclosed Customer Care Booklet.
GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR
COOKER
We suggest that you run all the elements for a short
period to burn off any residue from their surfaces.
During this period an unpleasant odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window
for ventilation.
ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of
this steam to escape. However, always stand back
from the cooker 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 cooker, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces
including the vent at the rear of the hob. See note
at the top of this page.
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the
cooker should be securely fixed to the wall.
PUSH TO TURN CONTROLS
These control knobs have been specially designed
so they cannot be accidentally operated. The control
knob must be pushed in towards the panel before it
can be turned or adjusted.
CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS
These lights indicate whether the ovens or grill are
switched on. In the case of the ovens, the neon also
indicates when the set temperature has been
reached. The neon will cycle on and off during use
to show that the temperature is being maintained.
If the neons do not operate as the instructions
indicate the controls have been incorrectly set.
Return all controls to zero and re-set following the
instructions for the required setting.
When the oven has been set for automatic cooking
the neon should remain unlit during OFF periods.
COOKWARE
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed
directly against the grid covering the fan at the back
of the oven.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm
(12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat
and may affect performance.

6. AUTOMATIC COOKING
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
When cooking is complete do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
Always ensure food in the oven is covered if its
not possible to remove food immediately after
cooking.

l To operate the dual hotplate push in and turn
the control knob clockwise for the full area,
displaying a double line between the
numbers, or anticlockwise for the centre
section, with a single line between the
numbers.
l The inner section is very economical when
cooking with small diameter saucepans.
l For single hotplates, push in and turn the
control knob in either direction to vary the
heat setting. The highest number represents
the hottest setting and the lowest represents
the coolest setting. Choose a setting
appropriate to the quantity and type of food to
be cooked.
l This model has the added feature of
Ceraglow hotplates which react more quickly
than other ceramic hotplates and are easily
identified by an instant red glow.
RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS
For speed and economy only good quality
saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are
recommended. The saucepan base should be
approximately the same size as the cooking area, a
base diameter of up to 225mm (9") may be used on
a 180mm (7") heated area.
Ensure that new saucepans are well scrubbed to
remove edges and take off any deposits left from
manufacture.
Pressure cookers, preserving pans etc., should
comply with the recommendations given above.
Traditional round bottomed Woks must not be used
even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases
are available and do comply with the above
recommendations.
Pans made from pure copper or having a single layer
copper base are unsuitable due to the highly
reflective nature and concavity of the base.
Glass and ceramic pans are not recommended due
to their poor conduction of heat.
NOTE
Occasionally the heated areas may be seen to
switch ON and OFF when higher heat settings are
being used. This is due to a safety device which
prevents the glass from overheating. Some switching
ON and OFF when cooking at high temperatures,
e.g. deep fat frying is quite normal, causes no
damage to the hob and little delay in cooking times.
Excessive switching may however be caused by the
use of an unsuitable saucepan or a saucepan which
is smaller than the heated area. If excessive
switching occurs, discontinue use of the saucepan.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE COOKER IF THE CERAMIC GLASS IS DAMAGED. IF A FAULT OR CRACK
BECOMES VISIBLE DURING COOKING, DISCONNECT THE COOKER IMMEDIATELY FROM THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND CONTACT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTRE.
USING THE HOTPLATES
16
THE CERAMIC HOB

HINTS AND TIPS
l Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the
heated areas. This will reduce the risk of
scratches and metal marks from saucepans with
aluminium bases. Metal marks can be easily
cleaned off providing they are not allowed to burn
on.
l Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan
manufacturer, particularly those relating to
recommended heat settings.
l Avoid using thin badly dented or distorted
saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not
be used.
l To prolong the life of hotplates:-
l Never use utensils with a skirt, e.g. a bucket.
l Never use an asbestos mat.
l Never leave the hotplates ON when not
covered with a saucepan.
l Ensure that hob and saucepans are clean and
dry before the start of cooking to reduce
cleaning.
l Follow the cleaning instructions very closely to
keep the hob looking like new.
ll If spillage occurs with sugar solutions, e.g.
jams and syrups, it must be wiped from the
hob before it sets and becomes hard
otherwise damage to the hob will occur.
HOT HOB INDICATOR
The ceramic hob is fitted with a hot hob indicator light
which illuminates when the hob is too hot to touch.
The light will go OFF when the hob has cooled.
DEEP FAT FRYING
SPECIAL FRYING NOTE:
For safety purposes when deep fat frying, fill the pan
one-third full of oil, DO NOT cover the pan with a lid
and DO NOT leave the pan unattended. In the
unfortunate event of a fire, switch the cooker OFF at
the electricity supply and cover the pan with a lid or
damp cloth to assist in smothering the flames.
DO NOT use water on the fire. Leave the pan to cool
for at least 30 minutes before moving it.
DO NOT leave the fat or oil in the frying pan on the
hob to store it in case the hob is inadvertently
switched ON.
1. Preparing the food
Seal the food by coating with flour, egg and
breadcrumbs or batter. Do not use a basket with
batter coated foods as they will stick.
2. Amount of oil
For safety purposes fill the pan only one-third full
of oil.
3. Testing the temperature of the oil
It is advisable to use a thermometer to test the
temperature of the oil. Alternatively, drop a small
cube of bread into the oil which should brown in
just under a minute if the oil is at the correct
temperature of 190°C/375°F.
4. Cooking the food
Lower the food gently into the oil. Do not add
too much food at once or the temperature of the
oil will be reduced and may result in soggy,
greasy food.
Turn the food if necessary; doughnuts float to the
surface so will not brown on the upperside if not
turned. Once cooked, drain the food on
absorbent paper.
5. Double frying chips
Double frying will ensure good chips. First fry the
chips for a few minutes at 170°C/340°F to seal
the outside. Remove the chips from the oil.
Increase the temperature of the oil to
190°C/375°F to finish cooking and brown the
chips.
Chips may be kept for several hours after the first
frying before finishing off with the second frying.

PRESERVING
1. DO NOT use a pan that overlaps the perimeter of
the hob trim.
2. To allow for a full rolling boil, the pan should be
no more than one third full when all the
ingredients have been added. It is better to use
two pans rather than overfill one, or use half
quantities.
3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before
using.
4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however
granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally
good flavour.
5. Crystallization may be caused if sugar is not
completely dissolved before bringing jam to the
boil. Over boiling will affect the flavour, setting
properties and colour of the jam.
6. To test jam for setting:
If a jam thermometer is available, boil jam to
104°C. Marmalade should be boiled to 106°C.
If a jam thermometer is not available, remove
pan from heat, place sample of jam on a cold
dish and cool quickly (i.e. in a freezer or frozen
food storage compartment of a refrigerator).
When cold, it will crinkle and hold the mark of a
finger run through it, if it is at setting point.
7. The scum should be removed as soon as
possible from the surface of the preserve after
setting point has been reached. Marmalade
should be allowed to cool before potting to
prevent the peel rising.
18

l Push in and turn the grill/top oven
temperature control clockwise past the
maximum oven temperature to the
settings that control the grill.
l The first three settings control the full area at
¼, ½ and full power. Set to full power at first,
then turn down as necessary. The fourth
setting is for the centre section of the grill
only. This section operates at full power.
NOTE
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING
GRILLING.
The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the grilling
compartment, but a straight shelf from the oven may
be used to provide alternative positions.
Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident as
the grill cleans itself.
The grill neon will illuminate when the second oven
control is turned past the maximum temperature and
will stay ON until the grill is turned OFF.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
To insert the handle, press the button on the handle
with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards
inserting the lip into widest part of the bracket. Move
the handle towards the left, lower into position and
release the button.
Ensure the handle is positively located.
When removing the handle, press the button on the
handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly
upwards and towards the right to remove from the
bracket.
Ensure your hand is protected when removing
the grill pan handle as the grill element can
become very hot.
ALWAYS REMOVE THE GRILL PAN HANDLE
DURING GRILLING.
19
USES OF THE GRILL
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD
BE KEPT AWAY.
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes the
centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food.
SELECTING THE GRILL
THE GRILL

To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure
that the cut out on the underside of the handle
bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to
food during cooking or the carrier shelf can be lifted
away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant
work surface.
HINTS AND TIPS
l 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.
l Place food on the grill pan grid in the grill
pan.
l Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the
grid when grilling meats.
l When toasting bread use the cranked shelf in
position 2 with the grid in the high position.
l It is advantageous to preheat the grill on a full
setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or
