Lighting the appliance CSIG 417 Lighting the appliance The ignition system works by means of a battery. Details on how to replace the battery are given on page 33. Hotplate To light: 1. Lift up the lid. You cannot use the hotplate when the lid is down. 2. Push in the control knob and turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button.
Grill To light: 1 Open the door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to the right to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. 3 Leave the grill door open when you are using the grill. Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread from the grill cavity.
Lighting the appliance CSIG 417 Main oven To light: 1 Open the oven door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 9. Press the ignition button. When the burner has lit release the button. There will only be small flames at first. 3 Now turn the control knob to the gas mark you want. 4 Wait until the burner is showing large flames. 5 Close the oven door. To turn off any burner 1 Push in the control knob and turn it to the off position. This is shown by a large dot.
The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food. Prior to using the grill We suggest that you operate the grill for approximately 5 - 10 mins to burn off any residue from the surface.
The grill CSIG 417 Cooking positions There is only one position for the grill shelf (Position 2). Positions are counted from the top downwards. Most food should be cooked on the grid in the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to suit different thicknesses of food. You can place some dishes straight on to the grill shelf. This is useful when you are browning the top of food such as cauliflower cheese. General The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the main oven.
The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan. Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to remove the grill pan handle during grilling. Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill.
The hotplate CSIG 417 The hotplate You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 25 for more information. Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn anticlockwise from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. You can adjust the heat by turning the control between the highest and lowest settings.
For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip. Put pans on the centre of the burners. Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally knocked. Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do not cover the pan with a lid. Do not leave a pan unattended.
The hotplate CSIG 417 Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. 2 Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. 3 Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen. 4 Try cooking more than one vegetable in the same pan, for example potatoes and carrots. 5 Cut vegetables into smaller pieces. This way they will cook more quickly.
The ovens Before you use the ovens you should wipe them out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones Main Oven - There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make use of these heat zones when you are cooking foods requiring different temperatures all at the same time.
The ovens CSIG 417 Most second oven cooking should be carried out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2. However, when cooking a small joint or a deep cake you can use the shelf on the base of the second oven to allow enough air to circulate around the food. Shelf on base Baking trays and dishes For your safety Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burners. This will damage the appliance as well as the ovenware and possibly the floor covering underneath the appliance.
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. If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb).

Oven cooking chart - Second oven These instructions are for cooking in the oven after it has been pre-heated for 20 minutes. The recommended shelf positions give the best results. Put the dishes centrally on the shelf and turn food round during the cooking time. You can change the gas marks and cooking times to suit your own tastes. It is important to check that food is piping hot before serving. If you are using both ovens at the same time you may need to adjust the cooking times.

Slow cooking CSIG 417 Slow cooking Please note: There is no slow cook on the second oven. The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn the oven down to the slow cook setting. This makes sure that the temperature of the food gets hot enough to start the food cooking.
Soups, casseroles and stews l l l l Do not cook casseroles over 2.7kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil. Vegetables l Cut into small pieces. l Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish. l Place vegetables under meat in casseroles. l Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.
Care and cleaning CSIG 417 Care and cleaning For your safety For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas appliance clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuff could cause a fire. Try to mop up spills and splashes as soon as they happen. But be careful as parts of the appliance will be hot. Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet.
You can wash the removable parts in very hot soapy water. You may use mild abrasives. Make sure that the electrode and the hole and slots in the crown are not blocked with food or cleaning materials. Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time.
Care and cleaning CSIG 417 The grill Do not clean the grill burner itself. The burner is designed to be self cleaning. Cleaning the grill may cause the holes in the burner to become blocked preventing it from operating correctly. Please note that due to the nature of stainless steel the grill burner may tarnish through use over a period of time. This is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance. Clean the area around the grill frequently using hot soapy water.
The main oven The sides and back of your oven are coated in a special material which helps to keep itself clean. Follow these simple rules to maintain the appearance of the special finish. Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over. Do not put dishes too high in the oven. If you do they may stick to the oven roof. Cover your roasting tins with foil. This will prevent fat splashing. Use a roasting tin which is just large enough for the meat and potatoes. This will help to reduce fat splashing.
Care and cleaning CSIG 417 Oven cleaning cycle Please note: The oven cleaning cycle can only be used in the main oven. You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to follow the cycle. If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should follow the cleaning cycle once a week. If you do very little roasting you will only need to follow the cleaning cycle every 2-3 weeks.
Cleaning between the outer and inner door glass. You can remove the glass from the oven and grill doors if you need to. Note: For grill door it is important not to open the door when the glass is removed because the door is lighter and it will spring shut. To remove the outer glass 1 Open the door so you can get at the two cross head screws on the top of the door. Note: Open the grill door slightly to access screws. 2 Loosen these two screws using a pozidrive screwdriver.
Care and cleaning CSIG 417 Cleaning The Door Glass To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following: Household detergents 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 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.
