Important safety guidance
! WARNING: To prevent fire, burns,
electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances,
certain rules to follow and safeguards to
assure high performance from this oven:
Important instructions
1. Do not use the oven for any reason other
than food preparation, such as for drying
clothes, paper, or any other non food items
or for sterilizing purposes.
2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could
damage the oven.
3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type
of storage, such as papers, cookbook,
cookware etc.
4 Do not operate the oven without the glass
tray in place. Be sure it is sitting properly on
the rotating base.
5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior
to cooking when you cook food sealed in
bottles.
6. Do not put foreign material between the
oven surface and door. It could result in
excessive leakage of microwave energy.
7. Do not use recycled paper products for
cooking. They may contain impurities which
could cause sparks and/or fires when used
during cooking.
8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a
microwave approved popcorn popper or
unless it’s commercially packaged and
recommended especially for microwave
ovens. Microwave popped corn produces
a lower yield than conventional popping;
there will be a number of unpopped kernels.
Do not use oil unless specified by the
manufacturer.
9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a
membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes,
chicken livers, etc., without first piercing
them several times with a fork.
Operation
Cooking Guidelines
Best results will be obtained by the shelf
positions in this guide. It is not necessary to
preheat the oven but advisable for a range of
dishes. The oven is capable of full temperature
in 15-20 minutes.
Most cookery books give details of the
shelf positions and gas mark settings for
each recipe. If in doubt about a recipe you
intend to use, study the recipe carefully
then find a similar dish in our guide and
use our shelf position and gas mark setting
recommendation.
Shelf positions are from the top down. When
roasting with aluminium foil care must be taken
that the foil does not impair circulation or block
the oven flue outlet.
Do’s and don’ts
Do read the user instructions carefully before
using the appliance for the first time.
Do allow the oven to heat before using for
the first time, in order to expel any smells
before the introduction of food.
Do clean the appliance regularly.
Do remove spills as soon as they occur.
Do always use oven gloves when removing
food shelves and trays from the oven.
Do check that controls are in the off position
when finished.
Do not allow children near the cooker when in
use. Turn pan handles away from the
front so that they cannot be caught
accidentally.
Do not allow fats or oils to build up in the oven
trays or base.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or powders
that will scratch the surfaces of the
appliance.
Do not under any circumstances use the oven
as a space heater.
Do not put heavy objects onto open grill and
oven doors.
Leaks
If a smell of gas becomes apparent, the
supply should be turned off at the cylinder
IMMEDIATELY. Extinguish naked lights
including cigarettes and pipes. Do not
operate electrical switches. Open all doors
and windows to disperse any gas escape.
LPG gas is heavier than air; any escaping
gas will therefore collect at a low level. The
strong unpleasant smell of gas will enable
the general area of the leak to be detected.
Check that the gas is not escaping from an
unlighted appliance. Never check for leaks
with a naked flame, leak investigation should
be carried out using a leak detector spray.
Maintenance & servicing
Important
• Shut off gas supply at isolating valve, switch
off electric supply and ensure all parts are
cool before cleaning or servicing
• All servicing must be carried out by an
approved competent person.
• After each service the appliance must be
checked for gas soundness
• This appliance must not be modified or
adjusted unless authorised and carried out
by the manufacturer or his representative.
No parts other than those supplied by
the manufacturer should be used on this
appliance.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must only
be replaced by the manufacturer or his
representative in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance needs little maintenance other
than cleaning. All parts should be cleaned
using warm soapy water. Do not use abrasive
cleaners, steel wool or cleansing powders.
When cleaning the burner ring it is essential
to ensure that the holes do not become
blocked. The control knobs are a push fit
and can be removed for cleaning. They are
interchangeable without affecting the sense of
operation.
