Introduction
To help you make the best use of your cooker, PLEASE READ THIS BOOKLET
CAREFULLY.
Your new cooker is guaranteed and will give lasting service. The guarantee is only
applicable if the cooker has been installed in accordance with the Installation
Instructions.
The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be
accepted for use in any other installation.
When first using the cooker ensure that the room is well ventilated (e.g. open a
window or use an extractor fan) and that persons who may be sensitive to the odour
avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room until the
smell has ceased. This odour is due to any temporary finish and also any moisture
absorbed by the insulation.
Our policy is one of continual improvement in design and development,
therefore strict accuracy of illustrations and descriptions cannot be
guaranteed.
This appliance conforms to the following EEC Directives:

Safety Information
NEVER . . .
NEVER leave children unsupervised where the cooker is installed as all surfaces
will get hot during and after use.
NEVER allow anyone to sit or stand on any part of the cooker.
NEVER store items that children may attempt to reach above the cooker.
NEVER heat up unopened food containers as pressure can build up causing
the container to burst.
NEVER store chemicals, food stuffs, pressurised containers in or on the cooker,
or in cabinets immediately above or next to the cooker.
NEVER fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, and never use a lid.
DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
NEVER place flammable or plastic items on or near the hotplate.
NEVER use proprietary spillage collectors on the hotplate.
NEVER use the cooker as a room heater.
NEVER dry clothes or place other times over or near to the hotplate or oven/
grill doors.
NEVER wear garments with long flowing sleeves whilst cooking.
NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and
moisture in the room in which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation
device (mechanical extractor hood).
In particular when using the grill or more than one hotplate burner, open a window if
a mechanical ventilation device is not operating.

Oven Timer Operation (KD643G only)
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or is just about to finish
cooking on your return to the oven. This will ensure the food has not cooled
down and does not require reheating before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven, ideally
straight from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed
thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. Warm food should never be placed in the oven if there is to be a
delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat and vegetables should be
cooked as soon as possible.
5. Dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, for example
Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay
period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so that the delay
period is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain foods (ie poultry,
joints, etc) the delayed start should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period, so it
is best to add these ingredients just before serving.
9. Foods 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.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
11. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss
of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.

11
Hotplate
ALWAYS PUSH IN THE CONROLS WHEN TURNING ANY OF THE BURNERS ON OR OFF.
The hotplate has two high speed burners and two simmering burners which will
accommodate pans between 100mm (4”) and 230mm (9”) diameter. All pans
should be positioned centrally over the burners.
TO USE THE HOTPLATE
1. Press the ignition button and then push in and turn the control knob of the
chosen burner anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol. Continue to press
the ignition button until the sparks light the gas.
2. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the desired setting.
Only turn the control knob between the large flame symbol and the small
flame symbol for adjusting the setting.
3. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O.
DO NOT use the hotplate unless all pan supports are in position.
DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be unstable.
DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan supports.
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignitor for lighting the gas. To ensure rapid lighting of
the burners every time they are used, the ignitors must be kept clean and dry. Remove
any food spillage or cleaning materials from the ignitor using a small nylon brush such
as a tooth brush. Access to the ignitor can be achieved by lifting off the loose burner
parts carefully when the burners are cool.
When the hotplate burner bodies and caps are removed for cleaning, be careful not to
drop any food particles or cleaning materials into the burner bases, to avoid the
possibility of blocking the gas jets.
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit may appear on the top edge of the
pan support fingers. See ‘Care and Cleaning’ section for cleaning information.
When the hotplate burners are turned down, a slight ‘popping’ noise may be heard. This
is perfectly normal.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR DEEP FAT FRYING
1. Never fill chip pans more than one third full with oil or fat.
2. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooling period.
3. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
4. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly into the
hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in particular will cause frothing and spitting if
added too quickly.
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or
fat.
HOW TO DEAL WITH A FAT FIRE
1. Do not move the pan.
2. Turn off the hotplate burners.
3. Smother the flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth to extinguish the
fire. Do not use water or a fire extinguisher as the force of it may
spread the burning fat or oil over the edge of the pan.
4. Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving it.
13
Grill
ALWAYS PUSH IN THE CONROLS WHEN TURNING ANY OF THE BURNERS ON OR OFF.
CAUTION – ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS USED.

An odour may be noticed when first using the grill – this should cease after a short
period of use.
DO NOT use the grill with the door closed.
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify
the heat and create a fire hazard.
RELIGHTING THE BURNER
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner
control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.
14
Grill
Grilling can be started from cold but for best results preheat for approximately two
minutes. Most cooking is done with the heat on full, but it may be desirable to reduce
it for thicker pieces of meat or for keeping food warm.
Models KD643G and KD641G only: There are 5 shelf positions available for grilling.
Model KD640G: There are 2 shelf positions available for grilling.
For au gratin dishes eg. Macaroni Cheese and meringue toppings eg. Baked Alaska,
place the dish on the floor of the grill compartment. The base of the grill pan can be
used for warming fruit garnishes on the reduced setting.
REMOVE HEAT SHIELD
FROM SHELF WHEN
GRILLING FOR MAXIMUM
GRILLING AREA.
Model KD640G only: The shelf is not required in this model - The shelf supports have
been designed to hold the grill pan, therefore place the grill pan directly onto the
runners in the required position.
NOTE: Strong detergents used in dishwashers may damage the grill pan grid
finish; clean in soapy water as described in CARE AND CLEANING section.
Always ensure that the grill pan handle is correctly fitted to the grill pan.
If necessary tighten any loose screws with a screwdriver.
15
Main Oven
ALWAYS PUSH IN THE CONROLS WHEN TURNING ANY OF THE BURNERS ON OR OFF.
The oven has different heat zones – the thermostat settings refer to the temperature on the
middle shelf position; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler.
Two shelves provide five possible cooking levels enabling full use of the different
temperatures inside the oven.
Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent if from being pulled out too far when attending to food.
Shelves are removed from the oven by pulling them out to the stop and then lifting them at the
front to withdraw.
The baking dish and grill pan without the handle can be used in the oven.
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used is 300mm x 350mm (12” x 14”).
TO USE THE MAIN OVEN
1.
Check that the electricity supply is switched on and the timer (KD643G only) is set to
manual mode .
2.
3.
Place oven shelves in the chosen positions (refer to cooking charts).
Push in and turn the oven control knob fully anti-clockwise. Sparking will continue until
the burner is lit.
4.
5.
Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting (refer to cooking chart). There is a
delay of about one minute whilst the safety device operates before the burner comes on
full.
To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O.
Never place dishes on the oven base over the burner.
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven – this should cease after a short period of
use.
COLD START COOKING
Anything requiring long slow cooking such as casseroles and rich fruit cakes can be put into a
cold oven. Satisfactory results can also be obtained with creamed mixture, rich pastries or yeast
mixtures, but for perfection we recommend preheating the oven for about 15 minutes at the
gas mark you require for cooking.
ROASTING OF LARGE POULTRY
The maximum weight of poultry that can be accommodated is 11.5kg (25 lbs) of suitable shape.
It is important to check that the bird DOES NOT overhang the burner at the back of the oven.
STORAGE AND RE-HEATING OF FOOD
It is vitally important to strictly adhere to the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to
prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.
1. If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it in a clean container
as quickly as possible.
2. Completely thaw frozen food in the refrigerator before re-heating.
3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the hotplate or in a hot oven,
Mk. 6, and then serve immediately.
4. Only re-heat food once.
‘COOK CHILL’ DISHES
These should always be placed in a pre-heated oven ideally on the first or
second shelf position. Follow the packet instructions for cooking time.
16

The ‘Slow Cook’ Setting
The ‘Slow Cook’ setting is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates
for short periods. Set the main oven thermostat to ‘S’ or ‘90˚C’.
USING THE ‘SLOW COOK’ SETTING FOR SLOW COOKING
1. All dishes cooked by the ‘Slow Cook’ setting should be cooked for a minimum 6
hours. They will ‘hold’ at this setting for a further hour but marked deterioration in
appearance will be noticed in some cases.
2. Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at Mk. 6 for 30 minutes before
turning to the ‘Slow Cook’ setting and never be cooked lower than the middle shelf
position.
3. Joints of meat over 6 lbs (2.7kg) and poultry over 4 lbs 8oz (2 kg) should not
be cooked using the ‘Slow Cook’ setting.
4. Always stand covered joints on a rack over the meat tin to allow good air
circulation.
5. A meat thermometer should be used when cooking pork joints and poultry.
The internal temperature of the food should reach at least 88˚C.
6. This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and stuffed poultry.
7. Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil before putting in the
oven.
8. Cover casseroles with foil and then the lid to prevent loss of moisture.
9. Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.
10. Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small pieces.
11. Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of the cooking time.
12. Use the zones of heat in the oven, e.g. meringues and milk puddings can be
cooked lower in the oven whilst other dishes requiring greater heat can be
cooked above them.
13. Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and should be included in
day cooking sessions, when they can be observed from time to time.

Top Oven (KD643G and KD641G only...)
ALWAYS PUSH IN THE CONROLS WHEN TURNING ANY OF THE BURNERS ON OR OFF.
The top oven can be used to cook small quantities of food or used in conjunction with
the main oven to provide additional cooking space.
The shelf in the top oven has a heat shield fitted at the rear. The shield can be removed
for cleaning and grilling, but must be replaced when using the oven.
The shelf can be used in five different positions, because these shelf positions are so
close: Shelf position 1 is the highest, 2 is central and 3 is the lowest shelf position
referred to in the cooking charts on pages 21 and 22.
It has a safety stop to prevent it from being pulled out too far when attending to food.
The shelf is removed from the oven by pulling it out to the stop and then lifting at the
front to withdraw.
The baking dish and grill pan without the handle can be used in the oven. The
maximum size of baking tray that should be used is 300mm x 350mm (12” x 14”).
TO USE THE TOP OVEN
1. Check that the heat shield is fitted to the shelf.
2. Place the top oven shelf in the chosen position (refer to cooking chart).
3. Push in and turn the top oven/grill control fully anti-clockwise:
- Model number KD643G, sparking will continue until burner is lit.
- Model number KD641G, Press the ignition button until the sparks light the gas.
4. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting (refer to cooking
chart).
5. There is a delay of about one minute whilst the safety device operates before the
burner comes on full.
6. To turn off, turn the control knob clockwise to the symbol O.
NOTE: It is normal for a slight resistance to be felt when turning the control knob
to the oven settings.
GUIDANCE ON USING THE TOP OVEN
1. Best results are obtained by pre-heating the oven for about 15 minutes.
2. The tray or dish on which the food is to be cooked, should be pushed to the
back of the shelf.
3. Food which is higher than or will rise above 125mm (5”) cannot be cooked
in the top oven.
Never place dishes on the oven base over the burner.
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven – this should cease after a short
period of use.

Care and Cleaning
Clean the cooker regularly and wipe up spills soon after they occur to prevent
them from becoming burnt on.
TURN OFF THE MAIN SWITCH AND ENSURE THE COOKER IS COLD BEFORE CLEANING.
BEFORE SWITCHING ON AGAIN, ENSURE THAT ALL CONTROLS ARE IN THE OFF POSITION.
NEVER USE BIOLOGICAL WASHING POWDER, CAUSTIC CLEANERS, HARSH ABRASIVES,
SCOURING PADS, STEAM CLEANERS, AEROSOL CLEANERS OR OVEN CHEMICAL CLEANERS
OF ANY KIND.
Before moving your cooker ensure that it is cool and note that it is heavy
(approximately 70 kg 155 lbs), so you may require assistance. To move the cooker
forward, open the top oven/grill door and with both hands positioned under the roof
of the compartment, lift and pull forward. Replace by pushing the cooker backwards.
Check that the cooker is level. Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not
damaged.
MAIN OVEN HEAT CLEAN LININGS
The oven roof and back linings are coated with a special enamel which has a continuous
cleaning action. The higher the oven temperature the more effective the action. In most
cases this cleaning operation will proceed during normal cooking. However, if roasting is
done frequently, or high temperatures are not used regularly it may be necessary to run
the oven empty at Mark 8 for about 2 hours.
It should not normally be necessary to clean the linings with water, but if desired, wipe
them over with a soapy cloth, followed by a wipe with a damp clean cloth.
OVEN SHELF SUPPORTS
Models KD643G and KD641G only:The shelf supports are removable
and dishwasher safe.
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.
Model KD640G only: The grill (top cavity) shelves are fixed and should
not be removed for cleaning. Wipe with a cloth wrung out in warm
soapy water followed by a wipe with a damp clean cloth.

Installation Instructions - Electrical Connection
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
CONNECT TO A 230-240V A.C. SUPPLY ONLY.
Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily accessible
wall socket which is adjacent to but not directly above, and not more than 1.25m away from the
appliance and capable of electrical isolation.
The mains lead should be routed such that it cannot touch hot parts of the cooker i.e. the back
panel above a height of 650mm from the floor.
Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced with a
suitable plug as outlined below.
NOTE: The removed plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be
properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket –
with the obvious consequent danger.
IF THE FITTED PLUG IS REMOVED
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below to a three pin plug of not less
than 13 amp capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a 3 amp fuse which
is approved to B.S. 1362.

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:– The wire which is
coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with
the letter E or by the earth symbol
or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is
coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter L or coloured red. When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely
retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. As the
appliance must be earthed, do not use 2-pin sockets outlets, if you are in doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out
by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size i.e.
0.75mm2 cross sectional area and temperature rating of 85˚C e.g. heat resisting PVC, available
from our parts department (see Back Cover).
IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED
In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied a 3 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS1362
must be fitted.
NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse
cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been obtained and fitted. A
new fuse cover can be obtained from your local Electricity Board. The colour of the correct
replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug.
Make sure that the cable does not become trapped when pushing the cooker into position.

Installation Instructions
INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONAL CHECKS
After installation, check for gas soundness. The supply pressure can be checked at the
grill injector. Access to the injector is by first removing the baffle at the front of the grill
fastened by two screws. Then remove the fastening screw on the right hand side of the
burner and slide the burner off the injector. Ensure that the grill burner is correctly
located under the fixing screw on reassembly.
Fit the hotplate burner bodies and caps, pan supports and shelf shield(s). Referring to
the instructions for use where necessary,
1. Check that the hotplate and grill burners ignite correctly and burn with a
steady flame. Check for a steady flame on the low setting.
2. Check that with the main oven set to mark 9, the burner ignites at low rate,
and then increases to full rate within 60 seconds. Leave the oven full on with
the door closed for 10 minutes, and check that when the control is turned to
the ‘Slow Cook’ setting that the flame reduces.
3. Check that with the top oven set to mark 8, the burner ignites at low rate,
and then increases to full rate within 60 seconds. Leave the oven full on with
the door closed for 10 minutes, and check that when the control is turned to
mark 1 that the flame reduces.
4. Check the operation of the oven timer and oven light(s).
Instruct the user on operation of the cooker.
NOTE - Models KD643G and KD641G only: It is normal for a slight resistance to be
felt when turning the Top Oven/Grill control to the oven settings, as the control
operates a flap at the rear of the cooker.
