Parkinson Cowan COM600GLX is a gas cooker with a grill, hotplate, and two ovens.

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 main oven has zones of heat, with the temperature in the middle being 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 that need different temperatures all at the same time.
