THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS Your appliance has a cooling fan fitted behind the controls to prevent them from overheating. The cooling fan will come on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when the oven is in use. The cooling fan may run on after the oven or grill is turned off for a period of time to cool the appliance down. It may continue to switch on and off until the appliance is cool.
BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE RATING PLATE This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the grill cavity door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable). The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate. Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.
PREPARING TO USE YOUR APPLIANCE Wipe over the grill compartment and oven base with a soft cloth and some hot soapy water and wash the grill and oven furniture before use. The grill and oven should be heated without food to burn off any residue from the grill and oven surfaces. To do this run the oven at Gas Mark 7 for approximately 10 - 15 minutes. The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the appliance.
THE ELECTRONIC TIMER The electronic timer can indicate the time of day, operate as a minute minder and automatically time the oven. Auto Symbol A Auto Symbol ( automatic cooking) Bell Symbol ( minute minder) Cookpot Symbol ( manual cooking) Bell Symbol Please note that this is a 24 hour clock, for example 2pm is shown as 14.00. If the oven is switched off on the wall or there is loss of power the clock will stop and you will not be able to use the appliance.
AUTOMATIC TIMER CONTROL The automatic timer can be used with the oven only. TO SWITCH THE OVEN ON AND OFF AUTOMATICALLY 1. Ensure the clock is showing the correct time of day. 2. Place food in the oven. 3. Set the length of time you want the food to cook for by pressing and releasing the button and then pressing the button until the correct cooking time is displayed. This must be completed within 5 seconds of pressing the button. The maximum cooking time is 23 hours 59 minutes.

To do this press buttons and together. After a few seconds the timer will show the time of day. The cookpot will show in the display and the oven will switch on again. 2. Turn off the oven control.
THE GRILL WARNING Accessible parts become hot when the grill is in use. Keep children away. USES OF THE GRILL The grill is situated in the top compartment. The grill gives variable heat settings. Use the high setting for foods that cook quickly such as toast and the lower setting to cook thicker foods such as chicken after it has been browned on the high setting. HOW TO LIGHT THE GRILL GRILL 1. Open the Grill door. 2. Push in the grill control and turn it anticlockwise to the highest setting.
THE GRILL SHELF 1 The grill shelf can be used in one of three positions. Shelf positions are counted from the top downwards. 2 3 The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected. Back of the oven When using the grill pan in positions 2 and 3 the shelf must be withdrawn before the pan can be located or removed.
HINTS AND TIPS Most foods should be placed on the grilling grid in the grill pan. This allows maximum circulation of air by raising the food out of fats and juices. The grilling grid is reversible. Adjust the grid height and grill pan runner position to allow for different thickness of food. Position the food close to the burner for faster cooking and further away for more gentle cooking. Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to minimise splashing.
Place food towards the centre of the grilling grid. If food is outside this area it may require rotating during cooking. Food such as tomatoes and mushrooms requiring gentle heat should be placed towards the edge of the grid. Place foods such as Shepherds pie and cauliflower cheese on the grill shelf to brown. GRILLING CHART The chart below gives recommended cooking times and shelf positions. Remember that these are a guide and should be adjusted to suit personal taste.
THE OVEN USES OF THE OVEN The oven is ideal for baking, roasting and casseroles. The oven also includes a Slowcook feature. It is important to refer to the oven cooking chart as a guide to shelf positions and gas mark settings as these may differ from previous cookers you may have used. PREHEATING It is not necessary to preheat the oven for casseroles. For recipes needing high temperatures such as bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc. best results are achieved if the oven is preheated for 20 minutes.
TO FIT THE OVEN SHELVES 1 There are 14 shelf positions in the oven. Shelf positions are counted from the top downwards. 14 Back of the oven The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected. Straight Rods HINTS AND TIPS There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen.
For economy leave the door open for the shortest possible time, particularly when placing food into a pre-heated oven. ROASTING For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to prevent splashing. It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended cooktimes.
OVEN COOKING CHART The Gas mark settings are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the settings to suit individual preferences and requirements. Note: Shelf positions are counted from the top of the oven downwards.
SLOWCOOK FEATURE S USES OF SLOWCOOK Slowcooking in the oven allows most foods to be cooked at a low temperature over a number of hours. A variety of foods, particularly cheaper cuts of meat can be cooked in this way making them tender, tasty and succulent. This feature is most convenient when used in conjunction with the automatic timer as there is no need to be present at the start of cooking. OVEN HOW TO USE SLOWCOOK 1. Open the oven door. 2. Push in the oven control and turn it to gas mark 9.
MEAT, FISH AND POULTRY Prime cuts of meat for roasting are better not slow cooked as flavours are retained to their fullest when roasting. Do not Slowcook joints of meat over 6lb (2.7kg) in weight. Only Slowcook joints of pork if you can make sure by using a meat thermometer that the temperature inside the joint is at least 88°C. Do not Slowcook poultry over 4lb 8oz (2kg) in weight. Cook stuffing separately. Do not Slowcook more than one 2lb (1kg) meat stew in the oven at the same time when slow cooking.
PASTA AND RICE Cook pasta on the hob and add to the dish at the end of the cook time. Rice should be the 'easy cook' type. Use 250ml (½ pint) stock to 100g (4oz) rice. Cooking time up to 6 hours. DRIED BEANS AND FRUIT Soak overnight prior to cooking. DRIED RED KIDNEY BEANS AND ALL OTHER VARIETIES OF BEANS SHOULD BE RINSED, COVERED WITH FRESH WATER IN A SAUCEPAN ON THE HOB AND BROUGHT TO THE BOIL FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES BEFORE DRAINING AND ADDING TO THE DISH.
CARE AND CLEANING For hygiene and safety reasons this gas appliance must be kept clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuffs could cause a fire. Before cleaning the appliance always allow the cooling fan for the controls to cool the appliance down before switching off the electricity supply. CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your appliance, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.
CLEANING THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS PANELS To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following: l Household detergents and bleaches l Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans l Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads l Chemical oven pads or aerosols l Rust removers l Bath/Sink stain removers The outer grill and oven door glass panels are removable for cleaning. TO REMOVE THE OUTER DOOR GLASS Grill Door Trim 1.
TO REPLACE THE OUTER DOOR GLASS 1. Holding the door glass panel with both hands, gently place the locators into the holes of the brackets at the bottom of the oven door. 2. Holding the door glass with your left hand, use your right hand to open the oven door. Bring the door gently towards the glass panel ensuring the screw location holes line up. 3. Place the trim in the correct position on the top of the grill door. 4.
CLEANING THE GRILL AND OVEN COMPARTMENTS The vitreous enamel in the grill and oven compartments can be cleaned using oven cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards. Aerosol cleaners must not come into contact with the grill burner as this may cause damage. Protect the burner with foil to prevent it becoming blocked.
COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher temperatures during roasting will increase soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender. Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during roasting will increase splashing and soilage. It is not necessary to add water to a meat tin when roasting.
REPLACING AN OVEN LIGHT BULB Isolate the appliance from the electricity supply before replacing the bulb. The type of bulb required is a 300°C, 25 watt small Edison Screw. 1. Make sure the appliance is cool before you replace a bulb. 2. Open the oven door and remove the shelves and wirework runners.
