Lighting the appliance
The 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.
Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas
may cause the flame to spread.
For your safety
If you close the lid of the appliance while any of the hotplate
burners are lit the gas will go out. This is because it would be
dangerous if the burners stayed on when the lid was closed.
Always use the control knob to turn off a burner. Do not use
the lid as a cut-off device. This will only cut off the gas when
the lid is closed. The gas will flow again when the lid is
opened.
Please note: If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all the
hotplate control knobs off. Make sure that the burner parts have been
replaced correctly. See page 25 for more information.
Grill/second oven
The grill and the second oven are operated by the same control so you
cannot use them both at the same time.

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. During this period a slight odour may be
emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the burner
heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance.
For your safety
The grill pan and handle must be in place before igniting the grill.
You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit.
Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young
children should be kept away.
Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill
fires.
Heat control
The grill control has two heat settings.
The control knob turns to the right from 'OFF'
to 'LOW' and then to 'HIGH'. Use the high setting
for fast cooking such as toast. Use the low setting
to cook thicker food such as chicken after you
have browned it on the high setting.
7
S G 3 4 0
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. It is important that you do not swap them over. Only use the shelf
with the solid metal plate underneath it in the grill/second oven.
When you are not using the grill pan you should remove the handle
and store the pan on the shelf in the grill. Turn the grill burner off before
you store the pan. Remember that the pan will get hot when you are using
the main oven.
You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are using
the main oven.
Preheating
You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a
couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or browning food.
Putting food on the grid
Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and muffins
towards the centre of the grid.
Place food which needs a gentle heat, such
as tomatoes and mushrooms towards the edge of
the grid.
Arrange meat, meat products and fish to suit
their thickness and how you like them cooked.

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.
To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle
away from the cut out on the grill pan.
Note
If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered
from your local Service Force Centre by quoting part number
311479800\6.

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 that the burner parts have been replaced correctly. Now light
the burner in the usual way. See page 25 for more detailed 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.
These are shown as a large and a small flame
symbol.
Burner sizes
The hotplate has three burner sizes to suit
different types of cooking:
Largest burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for
food such as chips.
Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday
cooking.
Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering food
such as soups and stews.
The largest pan which you should use on any burner is 230mm (9").
The base of the smallest pan should not measure less than 100mm (4").
Lift pans on and off the pan supports. Do not slide them across
the hob.

3
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.
4
5
Put pans on the centre of the burners.
Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally
knocked.
6
Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do no
cover the pan with a lid.
Do not leave a pan unattended. If the pan catches fire,
leave it where it is and turn off all controls.
Place a damp cloth or a fitting lid over the pan to
smother the flames.
Never put water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for 30 minutes.
7
8
If you are using a Wok we recommend it has a flat base
as it will stand stable on the pan supports. If you use a
round based Wok with a collar support, the collar must
be of the open wire work type. A closed collar will affect
the performance of the burner. Before you use the Wok
make sure that the collar is stable on the pan supports.
Always follow the instructions that come with the Wok.
Do not use the lid as a work surface or chopping board.
This could damage the glass and reduce its strength.

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
3
Only heat the amount of liquid you
need. Do not overfill pans.
Cover pans with a lid whenever
possible. The food will heat up
more quickly and there will be less
steam in the kitchen.
4
5
6
Try cooking more than one
vegetable in the same pan, for
example potatoes and carrots.
Cut vegetables into smaller pieces.
This way they will cook more
quickly.
A pressure cooker will save time
and energy.

The ovens
Before you use the oven you should wipe it 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.
If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example
cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking. Or you could
remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to
the higher shelf to finish cooking.
Second Oven - You should turn food round during the cooking time.
Preheating
You do not need to preheat the main or second oven for casseroling
and so on.
Preheat the oven for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food
such as Yorkshire puddings, soufflés and yeast mixtures.
When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the
instructions on the packaging. When you are using the second oven to
cook or reheat convenience food you should preheat the oven to gas
mark 8.
When you need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for
20 minutes.
Oven shelves
You can slot the oven shelves into any of
five positions in the main oven and any of two
positions in the second oven. Positions are
counted from the top downwards.
13
S G 3 4 0
The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the
main oven. Only use the shelf with the solid metal plate underneath it in
the grill/second oven. The plate may glow red when you are using the
oven. This will not affect the cooking performance.
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
Shelf on base
around the food.
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
cookware and possibly the floor
covering underneath the appliance.
Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all
dishes and the sides of the oven so the
heat can circulate properly.
Do not push dishes too far back as
food will burn if it overhangs the
burner flames.
For the best results from your main oven we recommend that you use a
baking tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which
is larger than this, you may need to turn it around during cooking.
The size of tray which should be used in the second oven should
measure no more than 310mm x 230mm (12" x 9"). Position the longest
side parallel with the door.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking. Turn all food round in the second
oven.
14
S G 3 4 0
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).
When cooking large items such as turkeys, the use of foil may be
required to prevent the breast becoming dry before the rest of the bird is
fully cooked.
Condensation
Condensation may form on the appliance. This is quite normal and
nothing to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and
moisture are present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible
try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture for example
casseroles are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up
straight away.

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.
Turn to S
Mark 6
Some foods such as pastry and biscuits are not suitable for slow
cooking because the temperature is too low.
Cover all food during cooking to prevent it from drying out. You can
uncover food for the last half hour if it is normally served golden brown.
Food preparation - slow cooking
Joints of meat and poultry
Do not cook meat joints over 2.7kg (6lb).
Do not cook poultry over 2 kg (4lb 8oz).
Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or above.
Cook stuffing separately.
Cook for at least 6 hours.
Only cook joints of pork if you can make sure, by using a meat
thermometer, that the temperature inside the joint is at least 88°C.
For good air circulation always stand joints on a rack in a roasting tin
or casserole.
Thaw all frozen meat and poultry before you cook it.
Prime cuts of meat do not benefit from slow cooking.
Cut off unwanted fat and skin unless it is browned first.
Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.

S G 3 4 0
Soups, casseroles and stews
Do not cook casseroles over 2.7 kg (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
Cut into small pieces.
Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15
minutes before adding to any dish.
Place vegetables under meat in casseroles.
Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.
Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.
Milk puddings
Cover the cereal with boiling water and leave it to stand for 30 minutes.
Drain and make the pudding in the usual way.
Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook
setting.
General points for slow cooking
Frozen foods
Thaw thoroughly before cooking.
Thickening
Toss meat in flour for casseroles. Alternatively blend cornflour with water
and add it at the end of cooking.
Flavouring
Flavours are held in the food because there is little evaporation. Adjust
flavouring at the end of the cooking time.
Liquid
Use slightly less liquid as there is little evaporation during cooking.
Milk and milk products, for example cream
Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling.
Reheating
Cool left over food quickly and then put it in the fridge. Do not reheat food
using the slow cook setting. Reheat food in the usual way or in a
microwave.
Only reheat food once.

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.
Please note: If we recommend you
use hot soapy water we mean hot
water with washing up liquid in it and
not any other cleaning product.
If you own a dishwasher please
read the operating instructions for the
machine before you wash any part of
your appliance in it.
Clean your appliance regularly using a cloth that has been wrung out in
hot soapy water. Rinse and polish it dry using a soft cloth.
When you remove parts of your appliance for cleaning do not plunge
them into water whilst they are very hot as this may damage the finish of
the parts.
Cleaning the brass plated handles (Where applicable)
It is strongly recommended that only hot soapy water is used for cleaning
the door handles. ANY OTHER CLEANING MATERIALS WILL DULL
THE BRASS PLATED FINISH.
The hotplate
Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as 'Cif'. Take care not to
damage the spark electrodes. If the spark electrodes are damaged the
burners will not light.
You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns to
clean them. Again take care not to damage the spark electrodes.
If any food spills do occur during cooking you can place the pan on
another burner to finish cooking. Then you can remove the dirty parts and
clean them before the spill 'burns on'.
24
S G 3 4 0
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.
Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the pan
supports. Clean the pan supports regularly to remove the marks using a
mild abrasive like 'Cif' with a soft scourer. For more
stubborn marks you can use a soap filled pad such
as 'Brillo'. After cleaning the appliance parts, dry
them thoroughly before you put them back.
When replacing hotplate burner parts
1. Crown to body (Do not try to force the
crown on to the body).
Make sure that the hole in the crown is
centrally over the electrode. Check that
the two longer location pegs sit in the
slots in the body. When the crown is in
the position let it fall freely on to the body.
Check that the crown can be moved
slightly from side to side.
2. Cap to crown.
Place cap centrally on the top of crown
(enamel side up). Move sideways and
front to back to check the cap is properly
fitted.
3. Check for ignition
If a burner will not light then you need to
check the crown and cap positions.

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.
After use you can soak the pan for a few minutes and then clean it using
mild abrasives or a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
Clean the grill shelf using hot soapy water. Mild abrasives can be used if
necessary.

The ovens
The top, sides and back of your ovens 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.
Dry any vegetables that you are going
to roast. If they are wet there will be
more fat splashing.
Follow the oven cleaning cycle
regularly.

Main Oven Cleaning Cycle
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.
To carry out a cleaning cycle:
1. Remove the oven shelves.
2. Set the oven to mark 5 for at
Mark 5
least 30 minutes.
3. Turn the temperature up to
mark 7 for 2 hours or until the
oven is presentably clean.
Some staining will remain.
Mark 7
Do not use any cleaning agents or
scrapers on the inside of the oven.
Do not wash the special finish.
General
Clean the base of the oven, the oven shelves and the oven doors while
they are still slightly warm. This way you can easily remove any splashes
and spills. Wipe the base with a cloth that has been wrung out in hot
soapy water. You may use mild abrasives.

Cleaning between the outer and inner door
glass
You can remove the glass from the main oven door if you need to.
To remove the outer glass
1 Open the oven door so you can get at the two cross head screws on
the top of the door.
2 Loosen these screws using a pozidrive screwdriver.
3 You should hold the door glass securely in place with one hand, whilst
removing the screws completely, with the other hand. If you do not do
this, the door glass could fall forward.
4 Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door glass towards you.
Lift it slightly to disengage the locators at the bottom of the door.
5 Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water and mild
abrasives such as 'Cif'. DO NOT try to clean the foil which is inside the
door. The foil is there to keep the door cool, if it is damaged it will not
work.
6 Replace the glass by holding it in both hands and gently placing the
locators into the holes of the brackets at the bottom of the door and
make sure the screw location holes line up.
7 Hold the glass in place with one hand and replace the cross head
screws into the location holes, with the other hand.
8 Tighten the screws using a pozidrive screwdriver. Close the door.

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. Please
contact your local Service Force Centre who will be
pleased to advise further.
Installing the appliance
