DURING OPERATION

Do not use this appliance if it is in

contact with water. Never operate it

with wet hands.

This appliance is designed to be

operated by adults. Young children

must not be allowed to tamper with

the product or play with the controls.

Do not allow children to sit or climb

onto the drop down oven door.

Accessible parts especially around

the grill area may become hot when

the appliance is in use. Children

should be kept away until it has

cooled.

Take great care when heating fats

and oils as they will ignite if they

become too hot.

This product has been designed for

cooking edible foodstuffs only, and

must not be used for any other

purposes.

Never place plastic or any other

material which may melt in the oven

or on the hob.

Ensure cooking utensils are large

enough to contain foods to prevent

spillages and boil overs.

The handles of saucepans which are

smaller than the heated area on the

hob will become hot. Ensure your

hand is protected before handling the

pan.

Take care to follow the

recommendations given for tending

the food when grilling.

Do not leave the handle in position

when grilling as it will become hot.

SAFETY

Ensure that all vents are left

unobstructed to ensure ventilation of

the oven cavity.

Ensure that the anti-tilt shelves are

put in place correctly. Refer to

instructions on page 16.

Never line any part of the cooker

with aluminium foil. Do not allow

heatproof cooking material, e.g.

roasting bags to come into contact

with oven elements.

Always stand back from the cooker

when opening the oven door to allow

any build up of steam or heat to

release.

Stand clear when opening the drop

down oven door. Do not allow it to

fall open - support it using the door

handle until it is fully open.

Do not place sealed cans or

aerosols inside the oven. They may

explode if they are heated.

AFTER USE

Ensure that all control knobs are in

the OFF position when not in use.

For hygiene and safety reasons this

cooker should be kept clean at all

times. A build-up of fats or other

foodstuffs could result in a fire,

especially in the grill pan.

Do not leave utensils containing

foodstuffs, e.g. fat or oil in or on the

appliance in case it is inadvertently

switched ON.

Cookers and hobs become very hot,

and retain their heat for a long period

of time after use. Children should

be kept well away from the appliance

until it has cooled.

GENERAL Under no circumstances should

repairs be carried out by

inexperienced persons as this may

cause injury or serious malfunction.

This product should be serviced by

Your safety is of paramount importance.

Therefore, if you are unsure about any of the

meanings of these WARNINGS contact the:

Consumer Care Department

Telephone (01635) 525542

RATING PLATE

Record the model, product and serial numbers on the

back cover of this instruction book, from the rating

plate. This is situated on the base of the appliance

on the front right hand side.

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 cooker

as this may invalidate the guarantee.

INSTALLATION

If your cooker has been damaged in transit, contact

your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install

it.

Your cooker left the factory fully packaged to protect

it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging

and damage has occurred, the manufacturer cannot

accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for

advice.

Once the packaging has been removed the cooker

should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack

barrow or any other aid to lift the cooker as damage

may occur.

Connection to the electricity supply must be carried

out by a qualified electrician/competent person.

The electrical connection should be made using a

double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at

least 3mm contact separation. The cable must have

conductors of sufficiently high cross-sectional area to

prevent overheating and deterioration.

The cable should be routed away from potentially hot

areas marked by X in the diagram below.

To move the cooker, open the main oven door and

lift the cooker by holding inside the top of the

compartment.

This is a type X appliance which means it is

free-standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one

or both sides. It may also be fitted in a corner setting.

Side walls which are above hob level should be

protected by heat resistant non-combustible material

and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob

side.

A nominal air gap of 2mm at either side of the cooker

is required to enable the cooker to be moved into

position. It is recommended that proprietary trims are

fitted to protect the worktops of either side of the

appliance. These are available from most DIY stores.

Two spacers have been incorporated into the back of

the appliance to ensure an air gap of 10mm is

maintained at hotplate level. Tiles or other forms of

deep wall covering should not obscure this gap.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

INTRODUCTION

Six square millimetres (6.00mm²) is the recommended

cross-section area.

Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a

minimum of 685mm above the hob.

It is important to ensure that the appliance is level

after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front

of the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.

FITTING THE STABILITY BRACKET

A stability bracket is included with this appliance,

which must be fitted during installation of the

appliance. The following instructions should be

followed during installation.

1. Place the appliance in its intended position and

level appliance.

2. Mark off 280mm from the left hand side at the

base of the appliance as shown in dimension 'A', Fig

1. This is the centre line of the fixing bracket.

3. Draw a line across the front edge of the feet (see

Fig 1) and remove appliance from its position. Mark

off dimension 'B' (see Fig 1) back from this line on

the centre line of the bracket to locate the front edge

of the lower bracket. Fix lower bracket (with two

fixing holes) to the floor then measure the height

from floor level to engagement edge on back of

appliance, dimension 'C' of Fig. 2.

4. Assemble upper bracket to lower bracket so that

underside of bracket is dimension 'C' +3mm above

floor level. (see Fig. 2).

Reposition appliance and check that top bracket

engages into appliance back as shown in Fig. 2.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR

COOKER

We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 -

15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from

their surfaces.

The procedure should be repeated with the grill for

approximately 5 - 10 minutes.

During this period an odour may be emitted, it is

therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a

boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of

this steam to escape between the wall and the rear

of the appliance. However, always stand back from

the appliance when opening the oven door to allow

any build up of steam or heat to release.

If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface

on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will

condense and produce water droplets. This is quite

normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away

condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

For your safety, wall coverings at the rear of the

appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.

OVEN / GRILL INDICATOR NEON

The light indicates whether the oven or the grill are

switched on. The neon also indicates when the set

temperature is being maintained. The neon will turn

on and off during cooking. In the case of the oven the

neon indicates when the correct temperature has

been reached.

GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE

The following items of oven furniture have been

supplied with the cooker:

1 grill pan

1 grill pan handle

1 grill pan grid

2 straight shelves
