When using the appliance for a long
period of time, the ventilation should
be improved, by opening a window
or increasing the extractor speed.
If the appliance is fitted with a cover,
its function is to protect the surface
from dust when closed and to accu-
mulate splashes of grease when
open. Do not use for other pur-
poses.
Always clean the cover before clos-
ing.
Leave the burners to cool before
closing the cover.
Do not use this appliance if it is in
contact with water. Do not operate
the appliance with wet hands.
Ensure the control knobs are in the
‘OFF’ position when not in use.
During use the appliance becomes
hot. Care should be taken to avoid
touching heating elements inside the
oven.
Always stand back from the oven
when opening the oven door, to al-
low any build-up of steam or heat to
release.
When using other electrical appli-
ances, ensure the cable does not
come into contact with the hot sur-
faces of the appliance.
Unstable or misshapen pans should
not be used on the hob burners as
unstable pans can cause an acci-
dent by tipping or spillage.

foil.
Always ensure that the oven vent
which is located at the centre back
of the hob is left unobstructed to
ensure ventilation of the oven cavi-
ty.
Perishable food, plastic items and

Dimensions of the appliances
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer is located under-
neath the oven cavity.
During cooking the storage drawer
may become hot if the oven is on
high for a long period of time,
therefore flammable materials
such as oven gloves, tea towels,
plastic aprons etc. should not be
stored in the drawer.
Oven accessories such as baking
sheets, will also become hot,
therefore care should be taken
when removing these items from
the drawer whilst the oven is in use
or still hot.

To light a burner:
1. push the relevant control knob
in completely and turn it
anticlockwise to the maximum
position ( ).
2. then, check the flame is regular
and adjust it as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the
control knob to zero, and try again.
If after a few attempts the burner
does not ignite, check that the burner
cap and crown are correctly positioned
(see figure 2 - letter A and B).
To interrupt the supply of gas, turn
the knob in a clockwise direction to the
position " ".

When lighting the hob manually:
Hold a flame near the burner. Never
turn the control knob before approach-
ing the burner with the flame.
When switching on the mains,
after installation or a power cut, it
is quite normal for the spark
generator to be activated
automatically.
If you use a saucepan which is
smaller than the recommended
size, the flame will spread beyond
the bottom of the pan, causing the
handle to overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling,
turn down the flame so that it will
barely keep the liquid simmering.
Take care when frying food in
hot oil or fat, as the overheated
splashes could easily ignite.
Leave the burners to cool be-
fore closing the cover.
If the control knobs become
difficult to turn, please contact
your local Service Force Centre.

Pottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed
pan allows a faster cooking than a nar-
row one.
Always use pots which properly fit
what you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans
are not too small for liquids, since these
could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be
too large for a faster cooking. In fact,
grease and juices may spread on the
bottom and burn easily.
It is better to use non-openable
moulds for baking cakes. In fact, an
openable mould lets juices and sugar
leak through, falling on the bottom of the
oven and consequently burning on the
bottom of the baking tray, making
cleaning difficult.
Avoid putting plastic-handled pans
in the oven as they are not heat-proof.
You should use pans with the right
diameter to fit the burner, in order to
make the most out of it, thus reducing
gas consumption as shown in figure 3.
It is also advisable to cover any boil-
ing casserole and, as soon as the liquid
starts boiling, lower the flame enough to
keep the boiling point.

Using the Fan Gas OvenUsing the Fan Gas Oven
Using the Fan Gas OvenUsing the Fan Gas Oven
Using the Fan Gas Oven
The air inside the oven is heated
by the gas burner and the fan
circulates hot air to maintain an
even temperature inside the oven.
The advantage of cooking with this
function is energy saving through:
" Faster Preheating
As the fan oven quickly reaches tem-
perature, it is not usually necessary to
preheat the oven although you may
find that you need to allow an extra 5-
7 minutes on cooking times. For reci-
pes which require higher tempera-
tures, best results are achieved if the
oven is preheated first, e.g. bread,
pastries, scones, souffles, etc.
" Lower Temperatures
Fan oven cooking generally requires
lower temperatures than conven-
tional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recom-
mended in the cooking chart. Re-
member to reduce temperatures by
about 20°C-25°C for your own reci-
pes which use conventional cooking.
" Even Heating for Baking
The fan oven has uniform heating on
all shelf positions. This means that
batches of the same food can be
cooked in the oven at the same time.
However, the bottom shelf may brown
slightly quicker than the upper one.
This is quite usual. There is no mix-
ing of flavours between dishes.
Always cook with the oven
door closed.
When cooking with the fan gas
oven, leave the lid open in
order to avoid overheating.
To use the Fan Gas Oven:
1. Light the oven gas burner as
described in “Using the Gas
Oven”, steps 1 and 2.
2. Upon ignition, turn the “Light-
Grill & Fan” control knob to
position .
The oven fan will start as soon
as the oven cavity reaches the
required cooking temperature.

Grilling must be carried out
with the oven door closed.
How to Use the Grill
1. Turn the “Light-Grill & Fan” clockwise
control knob to position .
2. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner
position to allow for different
thicknesses of food. Position the food
close to the top element for faster
cooking and further away for more
gentle cooking.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a
few minutes before sealing steaks or
toasting.
The grill control light will come on
when the "Light-Grill & Fan" control
knob is set.
It will remain on until the correct tem-
perature is reached. It will then cycle
on and off to show that the tempera-
ture is being maintained.
Hints and Tips
- Most foods should be placed on the
grid in the grill pan to allow maximum
circulation of air to lift the food out of
the fats and juices. Food such as fish,
liver and kidneys may be placed
directly on the grill pan, if preferred.
- Food should be thoroughly dried
before grilling to minimise splashing.
Brush lean meats and fish lightly with
a little oil or melted butter to keep
them moist during cooking.
- Accompaniments such as tomatoes
and mushrooms may be placed
Grilling
underneath the grid when grilling
meats.
- When toasting bread, we suggest that
the top runner position is used with
the grid in its 'high' position.
- The food should be turned over
during cooking, as required.
Cooking chart
Cooking time depends on the thick-
ness of the meat and not on its weight.

Hints and Tips for using the Gas burners
Start your cooking with a big flame
by turning the knob to the symbol .
Then adjust the flame as necessary.
The outside of the flame is much hot-
ter than its inside (nucleus). Accordingly
, the top of the flame should lick the bot-
tom of the pan. Excessive flames mean
a waste of gas.
In contrast with electric grids, gas
burners do not require flat-bottomed
pans: the flames lick the bottom and
spread the heat all over the surface.
No special pans are required for gas
burners. However, thinwalled pans
transmit the heat to the food more
quickly than thick-walled ones.
Since heat doesn't spread evenly on
the pan's bottom, the food may only be
partially heated. Consequently it is ad-
visable to stir the food many times.
A thick pan bottom prevents partial
overheating as it allows sufficient ther-
mic compensation.
Avoid very small pans. Wide and
shallow pans are more suitable than nar-
row and deep ones as they allow a
faster heating. Cooking is not quickened
by placing narrow pans on wide burn-
ers. The result is just a waste of gas. For
a proper usage, place small pans on
small burners and large pans on large
burners.
Remember to cover pans to reduce
gas consumption.
