Be safe Warning Accessible parts will become hot in use. To avoid burns and scalds children should be kept away. Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the hob. Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a sharp blow or sharp falling object might cause the surface to crack. As soon as any crack in the surface becomes visible disconnect the appliance immediately from the supply and arrange for its repair. Care should be taken that no water seeps into the appliance.

The Hob When you cook on a ceramic hob its very important to use the right sort of pans... 5 Always lift pans off the hob. Sliding pans may cause marks and scratches. Always turn the control to the off position before removing a pan. 1 Use only pans that are suitable for ceramic hobs. We recommend stainless steel and enamelled steel pans because pots and pans with copper or aluminium bases leave traces on the hob that are difficult to remove.
When cooking on the hob you may see the hob area you are using switch off and on. This is caused by a safety device that limits the temperature of the hob. It is quite normal, especially when cooking at high temperatures. If it happens a lot with a particular pan however it may mean the pan is not suitable – perhaps too small or too uneven - for a ceramic hob. 9 Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a heavy or sharp falling object (a salt cellar for example) might cause the surface to crack.
The Grill CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away. 5 The grill pan grid can be turned over to give two grilling positions. Remove the pan from the bottom of the grill compartment. Don’t leave the grill on for more than a few moments, without the grill pan underneath it. For best results, especially with toast, preheat the grill with the grill pan in the cooking position for two minutes before use.
The Ovens During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid the touching heating elements inside the oven. The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will work. See ‘The Clock’ section for instructions on setting the time of day. The Left Hand Oven The Right Hand Oven The left hand oven is a Multi-function oven. As well as the oven fan and fan element, it is fitted with two extra heating elements, one visible in the top of the oven and the second under the oven base.
The Clock You can use the timer to turn the ovens on and off. The clock must be set to the time of day before the ovens will work. Setting the time of day Timer knob Adjusting knob When the clock is first connected the display will flash ( ( ) and ) alternately. To set the clock to read the time of day turn and hold the Setting knob to the clock symbol ( ). At the same time turn the Adjusting knob left or right until the clock shows the time of day.
To time something that’s cooking (minute minder) Turn the Timer knob to the right to the ( ) minute minder setting - it should click into position. Use the Adjusting knob to set the time you need. You can turn the knob back to the ( ) manual setting to keep an eye on the time of day or leave it in the ( ) minute minder position as the time ticks down. To stop the beeper when it sounds Turn the Adjusting knob anticlockwise To stop automatically Use when you have started the oven manually.
To start and stop the oven automatically Before you set the clock, you must have two numbers clearly in mind. The ‘cook time’, which is the period of time you want the oven to cook. The ‘stop time’, which is the time of day you want the oven to stop cooking. You cannot set a start time directly - this is set automatically by setting the cooking period and stop time. Turn the Timer knob to the ( position. ) Use the Adjusting knob to set the ‘cooking time’ you need.
Clock Special Features - Key Lock When the key lock is activated, the clock can be operated as usual but the ovens are locked and will not come on. This means that your child could select a cook program but the program will not be activated and ovens will not switch on. To activate the key lock Make sure that the clock is in manual mode and cancel any active programs. Turn and hold the Timer knob to the clock symbol ( ) for about 8 seconds. ‘On’ will appear on the display.
Cooking using the timer The timer can be used to turn just one oven or both on and off automatically. The start and stop time must be the same for both ovens but different cooking temperatures can be set. If you want to turn one of the ovens on at the same time as the timer is set for automatic cooking, you must wait until the timer has turned on the oven/ ovens first. Then you can adjust either of them manually in the normal way. You can set the oven to turn on any time over the following 24 hour period.
Both Ovens A cooling fan will start to run as soon as an oven is turned on. The fan will continue to run while the oven. Before using for the first time, heat the ovens to 200°C for 30 minutes to dispel manufacturing odours. The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven. Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed level centrally on the oven’s wire shelves. Keep all trays and containers away from the sides of the oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.
Multi-function oven Fan oven This function operates the fan and the heating element around it. An even heat is produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts quickly. The left hand oven of your Elan cooker is Multifunction. It has many varied uses. We suggest you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar with each function. Remember - not all functions will be suitable for all food types.
Conventional oven (top and Handyrack base heat) This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked on the top shelf will brown and crisp faster than on the lower shelf, because the heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Fan assisted oven’ function. Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around for even cooking.
Oven shelves Steam During cooking, food naturally produces steam, particulary when cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven chips). There may be some steam visible at the grille at the rear of the hotplate. This is perfectly normal. the shelf guard should be at the back pointing upwards As well as the flat shelves some models are supplied with a drop shelf. The drop shelf increases the possibilities for oven shelf spacing.
Storage The bottom drawer is for storing oven trays and other cooking utensils. It can get very warm, don’t store anything in it which may melt or catch fire. The drawer can be removed completely for cleaning etc. Lift up the ends of the plastic clips (one each side) to release the catches holding the drawer to the side runners and at the same time pull the drawer forward and away from the side runners. For safety’s sake push the drawer runners back out of the way.
Multi-function Oven cooking guide Remember - not all functions will be suitable for all food types. The oven control settings and cooking times given are intended to be used only as a guide. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to provide a preferred result. Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce the temperature by 10°C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes.

Cleaning your cooker Cleaning for spills For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, turn the unit off and wipe the area surrounding the hot zone with a clean paper towel. If a spill (other than a sugary substance) is on the hot zone, do not clean until the unit is completely cooled down and follow the instructions below (“Cleaning for burned-on spills”). If you accidentally melt anything on the cooking or if you spill foods with a high sugar content (preserves, tomato sauce, etc.
Grill The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot soapy water. After grilling meats or any foods that soil, leave to soak for a few minutes in the sink immediately after use. Stubborn particles may be removed from the grid by using a nylon brush. Control Panel and Doors Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream cleaners, e.g. Cif, on brushed Stainless Steel surfaces. For best results use a liquid detergent e.g. Domestos Multi Surface Cleaner.

Moving your cooker Switch off the electricity supply. The cooker is heavy; two people may be required to move it. The cooker is fitted with one roller at the front and two at the back. There are also two screw down levelling feet at the front. The front roller, designed for moving the cooker can be wound down. The levelling tool that controls this roller is in the storage drawer.
Troubleshooting If there is an installation problem and I don’t get my original installer to come back to fix it who pays? You do. Service organisations will charge for their call outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original installer. It’s in your interest to track down your original installer. A crack has appeared in the Hob surface Disconnect the cooker immediately from the power supply and arrange for its repair. Don’t use the cooker until after the repair.
Oven not coming on when turned on manually Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not there may be something wrong with the power supply. Is the cooker supply on at the isolator switch? Is the clock flashing 0.00? If so set it to the correct time of day. Has the Timer been set to AUTO by mistake? If AUTO is showing on the clock display, press the ‘cook period’ button and reduce any set cooking time showing to 0.00, with the (+) and (-) buttons. Press the manual ( ) button twice.
General Safety Instructions Clean only parts listed in this guide. The cooker must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the installation instructions. It should be serviced by a qualified service engineer and only approved spare parts used. Have the installer show you the location of the cooker control switch. Mark it for easy reference.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point. Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make container burst and cause injury. Never leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should be only one third full of fat. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them together before heating, or as the fats melt.

Positioning the Cooker Checking the parts The diagrams below show the minimum recommended distance from the cooker to nearby surfaces. The hob should be level with, or above, any adjacent work surface. Above hob level a gap of 75mm should be left between each side of the cooker and any adjacent vertical surface. For non-combustible surfaces (such as unpainted metal or ceramic tiles) this can be reduced to 25mm.
Make sure you lower BOTH REAR ROLLERS. There are two adjusting nuts, one for each roller, at both the front bottom corners of the cooker. Moving the Cooker The cooker is very heavy. Take great care. We recommend two people manoeuvre the cooker. Ensure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker around. You will need the levelling tool. Pull the warmer drawer out to its furthest point. Lift it up and out.
