Ceramic Hob
CAUTION: IF AT ANY TIME A CRACK IN THE SURFACE BECOMES VISIBLE, DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE
IMMEDIATELY FROM THE SUPPLY.
Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with the hob surface as damage can
occur.
The following boiling plates are located beneath the decorative circular patterned cooking areas:-
Front left 6 heat: 1200W
Rear left 6 heat: 1700W
Rear right 6 heat: 1200W
Front right 6 heat: 1700W
The cooking areas change colour when heated (become red) indicating which heating element is switched on. The
cooking area returns to its original colour when the heating element is switched Off.
Warning: Even though the cooking area has returned to its original colour it may still be hot.
The controls for the hotplates can be turned in either direction.
Turn the control to 6 for fast cooking. To reduce the heat to cook more slowly or simmer, turn the control to a lower
setting according to the size of the saucepan and the amount of liquid.
Pans can be placed on the unheated areas of the panel when cooking is finished and before serving food. It is
inadvisable at any time to leave a heating element switched on without a pan in position as this wastes energy, and
could make soil or rub-off from aluminium pans more difficult to remove. To protect elements against over-heating,
safety cut-outs have been incorporated with each element. After several minutes with the control at setting 6 the
safety cut-out switches the element Off and On continuously, thus preventing any adverse effects that may be
caused by an excessive build-up of heat in the cooking area.
Use of Hotplates
Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with the hob
surface.
Note:
Turn the control to 6 for fast cooking. To cook more slowly or simmer, turn the control to a lower setting according to
the size of the saucepan and the amount of liquid. The two small Hotplates are specially for smaller pans, low
temperature cooking and simmering.
Do Not leave a hotplate switched on without a pan as this wastes energy and may shorten the life of the hotplate.

Do not
use utensils with rough bases.
use lightweight utensils with thin, distorted or uneven bases.
use lightweight enamelled steel utensils.
use cast iron utensils.
use utensils with recessed, scrolled or ridged bases.
use a utensil which has a base concavity greater than l mm as this will reduce the performance of the hob.
use a utensil with a convex base.
use glass ceramic utensils.
use use lightweight saucepans with plain thin copper bases on ceramic or halogen hot plates.
Note: All copper pans are excellent conductors of heat, and are hard wearing and strong, but need quite a lot of
care. They can be very heavy and do not usually have completely flat bases. The interiors are usually lined with a
different material such as tin.
A stainless steel pan with a sandwich base of aluminium and stainless steel is an excellent conductor of heat and is
suitable for use on ceramic and halogen hobs, providing they are used in accordance with the saucepans
manufacturers’ recommendations.
Stainless steel pans with a sandwich base of aluminium and copper are excellent conductors of heat. If using
stainless steel saucepans with aluminium and copper sandwich bases on ceramic and halogen hobs, the use of
these pans must be in accordance with the saucepan manufacturers’ recommendations.
Extra care should be taken to ensure the base of the pan and the hob is cleaned, and the hob conditioned, after
each and every use, when using this type of saucepan.
If these recommendations are not followed, the result will be a build up of small copper deposits on the surface of
your hob which, if not cleaned after each use, will result in permanent marking of your hob.
Always lift the pan from the hob, do not drag or slide across the hob surface as damage may occur.

scale on the control panel, as recommended in the temperature charts. The pilot light will
immediately come on and will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven
thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
The cooking charts provided in this book are a guide only, giving approximate cooking
temperatures and times. To suit personal taste and requirements, it may be necessary to increase
or decrease temperatures by 10°C.
The oven is fitted with two rod shelves. The oven is heated by two tubular sheathed elements
located under the floor of the oven and on the oven roof, inside the cavity. It should be noted that at
the end of a cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is
opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with
a good door seal.
The correct positioning of food is indicated in the temperature charts.
Oven Positions
To prepare meat and poultry for roasting in your conventional oven.
(a)Wipe the joint, dry well with a clean cloth, kitchen tissue etc. and weigh it. Meat which has been
stored in a refrigerator should be allowed to come to room temperature for approximately 30
minutes before cook ing, and frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before placing
in the oven.
(b)The weight of any stuffing used should be added to the oven ready weight of the meat / poultry
before calculating the cooking time.
(c)Place the joint in the meat pan supplied with your cooker. Small joints weighing less than 1.75kg
(31/2 lbs) should be roasted in a smaller meat pan/tin - or they may be ‘pot roasted’ - a small joint
in a large meat pan causes unnecessary oven splashing and evaporation of meat juices.
(d)Additional fat should not be added, except for veal, very lean meat or poultry which can either be
‘larded’ with fat bacon or brushed very sparingly with cooking oil or melted fat.
(e)Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry may be dusted lightly with seasoned flour to give a crisp outer
surface. The skin of duck and goose should be pricked to release excess fat during cooking, and
the rind of pork should be scored, brushed lightly with oil, and rubbed with salt, to give crisp
crackling.
(f) Potatoes for roasting only require to be brushed with cooking oil or melted fat.
(g)It is not necessary to baste when roasting in an electric oven and stock or liquid should not be
added to the meat pan since this only causes unnecessary soiling, steam and condensation.
For optimum cooking performance, there must be clearance between meat pan and oven
sides. The meat pan must be placed lengthways in the oven to allow for air circulation.
The secret of succulent, tender meat, is not to roast it too quickly, at too high a temperature. Best
results are obtained when roasting is carried out at a low temperature. When a lower temperature
is used, the joint loses less weight, is more tender (too high a temperature causes meat to be
tough and dry) and the splashing of fat onto the oven interior is reduced to a minimum. When a
complete meal is being cooked in the oven, cooking time may need to be increased and
temperature may need to be raised for approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking period (for
instance when cooking Yorkshire pudding to serve with roast beef). The suggested times and
temperatures should be used as a guide, but may vary according to:-
Times and
Temp eratures
for Roasting
1. Whether you prefer meat rare, medium or well done.
2. The size and shape of your joint.
(a) A short thick joint requires a longer cooking period than a long thin joint.
(b) A small joint under 1.5kg (3 lbs) takes longer per 450g (1 lb) cook in the time given for
‘minutes’ per 450g (1 lb) without the ‘minutes’ over added.
(c) Boned/rolled and stuffed joints take longer to cook through than those with a bone.
Remember to switch off the oven control after cooking is finished. If the door of the oven is left
open for long periods of time with the control switch ON, then the grill element will become hot. The
correct positioning of food is indicated in the temperature charts.

The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert a meat thermometer
into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat thermometer
will indicate when the required internal temp has been reached.

Using the Main Oven for Other Functions
SLOW Setting
‘S’
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.
Fully loading the oven can be economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours.
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 the Main Oven Control clockwise ensuring the
oven door is fully closed.
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.
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 Ib) or poultry over 2.0kg (4lb 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 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 to the top with foil 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 fora
minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any toxins.
12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be necessary to check during cooking to avoid
overcooking.

Care and Cleaning
To reduce the amount of cleaning always ensure that the hob and cooking utensils are clean and
Ceramic hob
dry before use. Regular use of cleaner conditioner is recommended for proper care and protection
of the hob surface. Apply conditioner before using the hob for the first time. It contains a mild
cleaning agent, so that subsequent applications may clean off soil and apply a protective film at the
same time. For stubborn stains or heavy soiling use any of the following materials, and finish off
with conditioner.
1. Cif, non-scratch scouring cream.
2. Liquid Gumption Kitchen Cleanser.
3. Special Powder Cleanser.
Powder Cleanser – Mineral deposits that are present in hard water, and some foods, may cause
‘discolourations’ that appear in the form of grey or brown stains. The stains sometimes appear to
be in or under the glass surface. If there are some persistent stains after using any of the other
recommended cleaning materials, powder cleanser may be applied, following the manufacturers
instructions. Do not use abrasive cleaners or the powder cleanser on the painted metal framework.
Cleaner Conditioner – Regular use of the conditioner will make the surface easier to clean thus
ensuring that years of heavy abrasive cleaning do not progressively dull the surface.
Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it is best to wash these items immediately
after use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again. Wipe out the Grill compartment,
use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill runners and the floor of the
compartment. Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.
Grill
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
Control Panel
cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build up of soiling. The
recommended method of cleaning is to wipe over the trims with a soft cloth wrung out in warm
water or mild non-abrasive cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner on a small area of trim which is not
noticeable in normal use). Then, after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft
clean cloth.
Decorative Trims
Wipe over the outer door glass panels with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water, then after
wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth. Ensure that glass doors
are not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.
Doors
Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) – open the door fully and unscrew the two screws securing
the glass panel, taking care not to allow the glass to fall. The glass panel may now be washed at
the sink. Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. Ensure the glass
panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows. Take particular care not to damage the
inner surface which is coated with a heat reflective layer. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft
cloth. For slight soiling the inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it
from the door.
Warning: Oven must not be operated with inner door glass removed.
Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort the door seals. Do not lift the door seal from
the oven chassis, if necessary remove the seal by carefully unhooking the corner clips.
Take care that the rating label edges are not lifted during cleaning, and furthermore that the
lettering is not blurred or removed.
Remove the rod shelves and grill pan. Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains
from the rod shelves, grill pan and the floor of the oven.
Ove n s
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher safe.
Oven Shelf
Sup ports
To remove hold the support at the front and pull away from the oven side, this can then be cleaned
in a sink or a dishwasher. When removed it allows access to the oven side, which can be cleaned
with warm soapy water.
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear fixing hole and push in the front leg.
Open the oven door and remove the rod shelves. Using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers grip
the light glass dome, unscrew anti-clockwise and lift. Reach into the aperture with fingers, and
unscrew the lamp anticlockwise. Fit replacement lamp (25W 300°C rated SES), refit dome.
