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.

Using the Hob
The hob consists of six ceramic heaters mounted under a ceramic glass panel. The hob
warning neon illuminates if any of the hotplate controls are operated.
The rear three elements are 190mm diameter and are rated at 1800 watts.
The front left and front right elements are 190mm diameter and are rated at 1500 watts
and the front centre element is 155mm diameter and is rated at 1200 watts.
Warning: If any crack should appear on the hob or warming plate glass, isolate the
cooker immediately from the mains supply. Do not use any part of the cooker and
contact Service (see Key Contacts, back page).
CERAMIC HOB
Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with
the hob surface, as damage will occur.
The cooking areas change colour when heated (become red) indicating which heating
element is energised. The cooking area returns to its original colour when the heating
element is switched off and cools. Even though the cooking area has returned to its
original colour it may still be hot.
Hob hot neon:
This will operate soon after any of the six ceramic elements are turned on and will
remain on until the surface has cooled, approximately 30 minutes.
CONTROLS
Fastlite hotplates: The controls set the hotplate at six pre-set power indicator levels,
indicated by the numbered markings (1 is the minimum and 6 is the maximum setting).
The hotplate will be off at the ‘O’ position.
To reduce the heat to cook more slowly or simmer, turn the knob to a lower setting
which will vary according to size and type of saucepan, the amount of food and
whether or not a lid is fitted. 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 into
each element. After several minutes with the control at setting 6 the safety cut-out
switches the elements off and on continuously, thus preventing any adverse effects
that may be caused by an excessive build-up of heat in the cooking area.

Using the Hob
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.
9
Twin Grill
CAUTION – ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
GRILLING SHOULD NEVER BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE GRILL DOOR CLOSED.
The grill control is designed to provide variable heat control of either the full width of
the grill or just the half. Turning the control knob clockwise will switch on the full
width and turning anticlockwise will switch on just the half.
A gentle flow of air will be blown from underneath the control panel when the grill is
in use.
If the fan fails to blow air beneath the control panel when the grill is in use, you
should contact your service engineer immediately (see Key Contacts, back page).
GRILL PAN HANDLE
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to facilitate cleaning. The handle can
be either detachable from or fixed to the pan.
Remove the screw and washer from the grill pan bracket, tilt the handle over the
recess adjacent to the bracket (A). Slide the handle towards the centre of the pan (B)
and let the handle locate over the bracket (C).
For a detachable handle: Remove the screw and washer from the grill pan and keep
safe.
For a fixed handle: Replace the screw and washer and ensure they are fully tightened.
Warning: Ensure when using grill pan handle in the detachable manner it is
centralised and secure.
TO USE THE GRILL
1. Open the grill door.
2. Turn the grill control knob clockwise to 4 for full width grilling or anticlockwise for
half width grilling.
3. Slide the grill pan toward the back of the grill compartment until it stops.
4. Leave the control at 4 for toast and for sealing and for fast cooking of foods. For
thicker foods requiring longer cooking, turn the control to a lower setting after
sealing on both sides at 4.
Grilling can be started from cold but for best results preheat for approximately 2
minutes.
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat,
intensify the heat and create a fire hazard.
10
Ovens
The left hand oven is a fan oven where as the right hand oven is a conventional oven
without a fan. The heating of the oven is achieved by turning the control knob clockwise
to the required temperature as recommended in the temperature charts. The pilot light
will immediately come on and will automatically go off and on during cooking as the
oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
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 seal.
The right hand conventional oven will need to be preheated before cooking. Since the
left hand fan oven heats up more quickly and generally cooks food at a lower temperature
than a conventional oven, pre-heating the oven is often unnecessary. However, foods
such as bread, scones, Yorkshire pudding do often benefit from being placed in a pre-
heated oven.
The charts on pages 11 and 12 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.
Unless otherwise indicated in the charts, the cooking times for the fanned oven are for
food placed in a cold oven ie. without preheat. If food is placed in an already hot oven,
the suggested cooking time should be reduced, depending on the type and quantity of
food being cooked.
OVEN SHELF POSITIONS
The distribution of heat in a fan oven is very even, most foods will cook satisfactorily on
any shelf position in the left hand oven, but the shelves should be evenly spaced.
Refer to the cooking chart regarding shelf positions in the right hand conventional oven.
Items should be positioned centrally on the oven shelf.
To ensure even circulation do not use meat pans larger than 390 x 300mm (15ins x 12ins)
and baking trays no larger than 330 x 255mm (13ins x 10ins).
-
Do not fit shelves in the oven upside down and do not place food or cooking utensils
should not be placed on the floor of the oven.
To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rod shelves which are not in use should be removed
from the oven.
FROZEN MEAT AND POULTRY
Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in a domestic
refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours per 450g, 1lb), or at room temperature (allowing 2-3
hours per 450g, 1lb). Frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before
placing in the oven.
11
12
Note: If soft margarine is used for cake making, temperatures recommended by the
manufacturers should be followed. Temperatures recommended in this chart refer to cakes
made with block margarine or butter only.
13
Care and Cleaning
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, HARSH ABRASIVES, SCOURING PADS,
AEROSOL CLEANERS OR OVEN CHEMICAL CLEANERS OF ANY KIND, UNLESS SPECIFIED
BELOW.
Cleaning materials to avoid:
1. Plastic or nylon pads
2. Household abrasive powders and scourers. These may scratch the surface.
3. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.
Caustic cleaners such as these will etch the surface and attack the metal
frame.
4. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF AT THE MAINS SWITCH BEFORE CLEANING.
Ceramic hotplates:
Clean your Ceramic hob top regularly and avoid repeated burning of encrusted contamination.
Your choice of cleaner will depend on the degree of soiling involved (see below).
G
G
G
G
minor soiling, where the contamination has not burnt hard, can be wiped off with a clean
wet cloth
major soiling and strongly-adhering burnt encrustation can be quickly and easily removed
with a razor-blade scraper
hard water stains, grease spots and discolouration having a metallic sheen can be removed
with ‘Easy Do Cleaner Powder’
always condition hob after cleaning by using ‘Easy Do Conditioner’ or ‘Hob Brite’.
Apply a small amount of conditioner with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Rub vigorously.
Remove excess with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Polish with a clean cloth or paper
towel before the conditioner dries.
Detergent residues must always be completely removed with a clean wet cloth, (even if the
instructions for use suggest otherwise), as they can have an etching effect when reheated. Then
wipe dry.
To maintain hob in good condition, we would recommend regular use of the ‘Easy Do Powder
Cleanser’.
Sprinkle Powder Cleanser on a clean damp cloth or paper towel and rub vigorously for 3 to 4
minutes. Remove all residue with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Then use conditioner to
protect the hob.
For more stubborn marks, mix a small amount of the powder cleanser with ‘Cif Lemon Juice’
(from a bottle) and carefully spread over the affected area. Cover with a damp paper towel and
leave for a minimum of 15 minutes. Rub vigorously. Remove excess with a clean damp cloth or
paper towel before the conditioner dries. Polish with a clean cloth or paper towel.
Easy Do products are available from many electrical retailers, our Parts Department (see Key
Contacts, back page) and our Spares Distributors. Homecare ‘Hob Brite’ is available from leading
Supermarkets.
