OVEN TIMER OPERATION
Note: Timer must be set to 'Time of Day' and 'Manual' before the oven can be used.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Main Oven can be controlled by the Automatic Timer.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the food is ready
when you require it.
3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.
4. Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as possible.
5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for automatic cooking, keep the
delay time to a minimum.
6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could cause the oven to be
warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.
7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g. Shepherd's Pie, should
not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay period.
8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in food.
9. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it is best to add
these ingredients just before serving.
10.ꢀoods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon
juice has been added, prior to placing food in the oven.
11.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
12.ꢀood should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during
cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
13.Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.
14.Only reheat food once.

Temperatures
The recommended temperatures given are for conventional and fan ovens. When using
a fan oven it will be necessary to reduce the cooking time by 10 minutes per hour and
lower the temperature by up to 20°C. Also, in the majority of cases, it is not necessary
to pre-heat the oven. However, pre-heating is recommended when cooking items such
as Yorkshire puddings, whisked sponges and bread. Your experience with the cooker
will enable you to select the cooking time and temperature best suited for your recipe.
Condensation
Condensation may become evident on the inner door and water may drip through the
vent. This is normal when heat and moisture are present and may be a result of any of
the following:
1. Kitchen temperature and ventilation.
2. The moisture content of the food eg. meat, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding,
roasting meat, etc.
3. The quantity of the food being cooked at any one time.

The Working of the Heating Zones
Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The zones heat up and
cool down quicker, providing greater controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating
zone is equipped with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the
ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan on
the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating elements off and on
automatically to avoid any damage to the ceramic glass.
Choice of Saucepans
It is essential that the saucepan's you use on the ceramic hob are suitable.
ALWAYS USE:
• Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.
• saucepan's manufactured from aluminium (enamelled or machined) or stainless
steel.
• Correct size saucepan's. The base of the pan must cover the heating zone
completely.
• saucepan's with lids which are well fitting to reduce cooking time and energy use.
NEVER USE:
• Pans with thin, distorted or uneven bases as these will extend cooking times, waste
electricity and cause damaging, local hotspots on the glass surface.
• Pans with ridged or recessed bases.
• Pans with damaged or rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.
• Glass or glass ceramic utensils.
17
CARE O7 THE
CERAMIC HOB
Do Not
In order to keep your ceramic hob in good condition, follow these simple
guidelines:
Do not
Do not
stare at halogen heating units.
cook directly on the hob surface without a cooking utensil, as this will result
in damage to the surface of the hob.
Do not
Do not
use the hob as a worktop surface as damage may occur to the smooth
surface of the hob.
drag or slide utensils on the hob surface, as this will cause scratches in the
surface of the hob.
Do not
Do not
allow a cooking utensil to come into contact with the hob surround.
place anything between the base of the utensil and the ceramic
hob, e.g. do not use asbestos mats, aluminium or wok stand.
leave any utensils, food or combustible items on the hob when it
is not in use.
Do not
Do not
Do not
place aluminium or plastic foil, or plastic containers on the hob.
leave the hotplates or cooking areas switched On unless they are being
used.
Do not
leave heating zones uncovered when they are switched On.
We recommend not to place large preserving pans or fish kettles across two heating
areas.
Do not

CARE O7 THE
CERAMIC HOB
IMPORTANT - As with any cooking appliance there could be some fire risk attached
to the heating of oil, particularly for deep fat frying, cooking utensils containing oil
must not be left unattended (e.g. to answer the telephone) on or in close proximity
to the patterned cooking areas.
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full with fat or oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking period.
4. Do not try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This only lowers
the temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat.
4rozen foods, in particular, will cause frothing and spitting, if added too quickly.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.
8. Never allow excessive splashing of oil onto the hob.
Safety requirements for deep fat frying
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:
1. Switch Off the electricity supply.
NEVER attempt to move the pan - burns and injuries are caused almost invariably
by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.
2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.
NEVER use a fire extinguisher to put out a pan fire, as the force of the extinguisher
is likely to tip the pan over.
NEVER use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.
When smothering the flames DO ENSURE that you 4ACE and ARMS are WELL
PROTECTED from the flames to save you from becoming hurt.
3. After the fire has been extinguished LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL 4OR AT LEAST 60
MINUTES BE4ORE MOVING IT.
4. If you fail to put the fire out, call the fire brigade immediately.

HIGH SPEED GRILL
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use - children should be
kept away.
Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The high speed grill is
designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker because it takes less time to warm
up from cold. Conventional grills require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed
beneath them, but for normal grilling the high speed grill can be used from cold
without any pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved by
preheating the grill for about 1 minute.
Note:
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh. This stops you
from touching live parts.
DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh as this could
damage or break the element tubes OR if the grill is on cause an electric shock.
During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it while the grill is
still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and wait until it has cooled down before
cleaning.
Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted - DO NOT store the grill
pan handle on the grill pan grid when the rod shelf is in the top runner position.
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the right. You can choose
to have both sides on or just the left side on. Turning the control knob clockwise, will
switch both sides on. Turning it anticlockwise, will only switch the left side on. The
numbers which are displayed indicate the heat setting. Number 4 is the hottest and
number 1 the coolest.
GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE GRILL/TOP OVEN
DOOR CLOSED - This will cause overheating.
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the '0' Off
position.
Grilling procedure
1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.
2. Position rod shelf as recommended in the chart (next page) for food being cooked.
3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is positioned centrally under the
element.
4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause overheating of fat in
the grill pan.

TOP OVEN -
CONVENTIONAL COOKING
The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the grill element and
the element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts
of meat in casseroles etc. but can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg
(3lb).
The operation of the controls is covered on “The Controls”.
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.
The top oven can be used either independently to cook small quantities of food or in
conjunction with the main oven to provide additional cooking space.
• The shelf should be positioned on the first or second runner from the bottom.
To use the oven proceed as follows:
• Set the top oven control to the required temperature, the top oven light will come on
and wait for the thermostat light to go off, indicating that the oven has reached the
right temperature.
• The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre of the shelf with a gap of at
least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill element. This should avoid burning and
ensure even cooking.
• Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the oven.
25 mm (1 in)
Platewarming in the top oven
Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated when the main oven
is in use.
When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being cooked on the
hob, place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf using the bottom runner and turn
the top oven control to approximately 100°C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all
that is required to heat the plates and dishes.
NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven for cooking or warming
plates and dishes.
WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items which could be
affected by heat into the oven.

MAIN OVEN
- 7AN COOKING
The heat for fan cooking in the main oven is provided by an element situated at the
back of the oven, around the fan ꢀan cooking is ideal for large poultry or joints of
meat, reducing cooking times and often eliminating the need for pre-heating the oven.
It is also ideal for batch cooking where food is cooked on more than one level,
because the forced circulation of hot air gives an even temperature from the top to the
bottom of the oven.
The operation of the controls is covered on "The Controls".
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.
To use the oven proceed as follows:
• The shelves should be evenly spaced. To avoid unnecessary cleaning, shelves
which are not in use should be removed from the oven.
• Set the main oven control to the required temperature. Preheating is not normally
necessary, but some foods such as bread, scones and Yorkshire pudding do
benefit from being placed in a hot oven (see cooking charts).
• Place the food to be cooked in the centre of each shelf to allow for even air
circulation around the food.
25
USING THE SLOW
COOK SETTING 'S'
'S' SLOW setting
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods.
Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be damaged in a hot oven.
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the
oven lining and the plates which are being warmed.
Advantages of "SLOW" cooking are:
- The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.
- Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.
- Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.
- ꢀully loading the oven can be economical.
- Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours.
Bearing in mind these advantages, it makes sense to cook larger quantities of food than required
and store them in a freezer to be used cold or for re-heating. It is important to follow the guidelines
given for preparing food using the Slow Setting 'S'.
Storage and re-heating of food:
1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately, place it in a clean container and cool as soon as
possible.
2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.
3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.
4. Only re-heat food once.
Operation:
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.
2. Select 'S' (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning Main Oven Temperature Control clockwise
ensuring the oven door is fully closed.
Points to consider when preparing food for "SLOW" cooking:
1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into the oven ensuring enough room for air to
circulate.
2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a minimum of 6 hours, however, if they are
cooked for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their appearance may be noticed.
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2.0kg (4 lb 8oz). We do not
recommend that joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking on the slow setting.
4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or poultry at 170°C for 30 minutes before wrapping
in foil and placing on a rack over a meat tin (to allow good air circulation) before turning the
control to the slow setting and cooking immediately.
5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are thoroughly cooked by checking with a meat
thermometer before serving.
6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. We do not recommend placing frozen food
in the oven to cook.
7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the boil before placing in the oven.
8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal (not airtight) and cover food first with foil and
then the lid to prevent loss of moisture.
9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even sized small pieces to cook properly.
10.Always adjust seasoning before serving.
11.If using dried red kidney beans it is important that the beans are soaked and then boiled for a
minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any toxins.
12.Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and should be included in day cooking
sessions, where they can be checked from time to time.

'Stay Clean' Liners
'Stay Clean' liners are covered with a special enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At
higher temperatures the soiling is slowly destroyed. In most cases normal cooking at
higher temperatures will permit this cleaning to take place automatically. However, if
higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly then it may be necessary, in order
to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven at maximum temperature for at least two
hours, from time to time. The 'Stay Clean' liners can be washed in warm soapy water
followed by rinsing in clear water. Dry well with a soft cloth.
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh abrasives or chemical oven
cleaners of any kind.
Oven 7ittings
The oven shelves can be cleaned either in a dishwasher or by using a fine steel wool
soap pad. The grill and meat pans can be cleaned in warm soapy water using a fine
steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains or in a dishwasher.
They should be cleaned after each use.
Oven Interiors
To clean the oven interiors remove all the oven fittings and where applicable the 'Stay

CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE DOORS
Take particular care not to damage the inner surface of the door inner glass that is coated with a heat
reflective layer. Do not use scouring pads, or abrasive powder, which will scratch the glass.
Ensure that the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. ꢀor slight soiling the inner glass panel
may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from the door. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft
cloth.
SIDE OPENING DOORS
Cleaning the door glass is the same as the drop down doors, except take care to support the weight of the
inner glass when removing and refitting.
DROP DOWN DOORS
Remove the door inner glass as follows.
1. Open the door fully and remove the extrusion end caps (This should be done by hand but if it proves too
difficult, simply lift the inner glass to ease the end caps out of position).
NOTE: If you need to use a tool - be careful not to damage the extrusion or end cap.
2. Carefully slide the inner glass towards you and withdraw it from its locating slots. Ensure that the door is not
allowed to slam shut, due to the reduction in door weight. Clean the glass as described above.
3. The inside of the outer door glass can now be cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.
Refit the door inner glass as follows.
1. Open the door fully.
2. Locate the inner door glass into its slots, so that the printing is readable from the face nearest the oven in
the closed position and the widest black band is towards the bottom of the door. The inner door glass has a
special reflective coating on one side, in order to minimise surface temperatures and energy consumption
during use, it is important it is fitted correctly.
3. Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it will go and replace the end caps.
NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.

(where fitted) by cutting off flush with the appliance
and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition
where it could be connected to the electricity
supply.
To help the environment, Local Authority instructions
should be followed for the disposal of your product.
Disposal of old electrical appliances
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
requires that old household electrical appliances
must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted
municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be
collected separately in order to optimise the
recovery and recycling of the materials they contain
and reduce the impact on human health and the
environment.
The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the
product reminds you of your obligation, that when
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct
disposal of their old appliance.
