Using the Oven of your Electric Cooker
Baking (conventional oven models)
• In the oven, heat comes from the element below the food
(see diagram opposite).
• The element is controlled by the thermostat which sets the
oven temperature. During baking the thermostat turns on
and off to keep the set temperature.
Note: If you are only baking on one shelf, then cook in the
lower half of the oven.
Fan Baking (Fan forced oven models)
• With fan forced ovens, heat comes from the element
surrounding the fan (see diagram opposite).
• The fan circulates the hot air and so the temperature is
more even throughout the oven.
• Fan baking:
– cooks faster and at lower temperatures than
conventional baking
– is good when you are cooking food on different shelves at
the same time.
Note: Some variation in browning is normal with a fan forced oven.
Preheating the oven
We recommend that you preheat your oven before you put the food in to be cooked.
1. Set the required temperature.
2. When the indicator light goes out, put the food in the oven, close the door and set the timer.
Oven Safety Warnings
• ALWAYS follow the instructions for putting the shelves and fittings into the oven, to avoid
accidents.
• DO NOT line the oven with foil.
• DO NOT use polyunsaturated oil when cooking in the oven. This type of oil can cause heavy
deposits inside the oven.
• DO NOT touch the hot surfaces or heating elements inside the oven.
• DO NOT use the oven door as a shelf.
• DO NOT push down on the open oven door.
14
Using the Grill of your Electric Cooker
Grilling (separate grill models)
• The grill directs heat onto food from the powerful upper
element (see diagram opposite).
• The grill is suitable for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops,
sausages, fish, toasted cheese and other foods which cook
quickly.
Note: The grill should be preheated before cooking to seal natural juices of meat.
The grill door MUST be left open during grilling.
Grilling (grill in oven models)
• The grill directs heat onto food from the powerful upper
element (see diagram opposite).
• The grill is suitable for tender cuts of meat, steak, chops,
sausages, fish, toasted cheese and other foods which cook
quickly.
Note: The grill should be preheated before cooking to seal
natural juices of meat. The oven door MUST be left
partially open. This is achieved by closing the oven door until the ajar position is reached.
The grill deflector located in the top of the oven above the grill element must also be pulled out
to the stop position before you start grillling.
The full width grill dish can be used in any of the two height positions provided at the top of the
shelf side supports.
Grill Safety Warnings
• ALWAYS turn off the grill immediately after you have finished cooking. Fat left in the grill can catch
fire.
• ALWAYS leave the grill door fully open when grilling in a separate grill model.
• ALWAYS leave the oven door partially open when grilling in a grill in oven model.
• ALWAYS make sure that grill trays are fitted into the grill according to instructions.
• DO NOT line the grill rack with foil.
• DO NOT leave the grill unattended.
• DO NOT touch the hot surfaces or elements inside the grill and keep children away until grill has
cooled.
• DO NOT place thick pieces of food under the grill. Food may catch fire.
• DO NOT store flammable materials near the grill.
NOTE: Condensation in grill compartment is normal.
15
Using the Hotplates of your Electric Cooker
Radiant hotplates
• The high-speed radiant hotplates (see diagram
opposite) heat rapidly from a cold start. This saves
power.
Front control models
• The hotplates have a tray underneath the hob which
collects spilt liquids. The radiant elements can swivel
and the trim rings removed for cleaning of this tray.
Rear control models
• The hotplates have a tray under the hob which collects
spilt liquids. This tray can be removed by sliding it out
through the open grill door or by lifting up the hob.
• The radiant elements also swivel for easy cleaning.
Solid hotplates
• The strong solid-cast hotplates (see diagram opposite)
give wide contact for fast, efficient cooking.
• The hotplates are sealed all around which means
that spilt liquids do not go under the hotplates.
• Solid hotplates are CERASHIELD coated. This makes
the hotplates scratchproof and easy to care for. They
can withstand temperatures up to 600°C. They do
not smoke or smell when you first use them.
Ceramic hotplates
• The cooktop is made from ceramic glass. This is a
tough material which will last a long time. It can heat
up and cool down without breaking.
• The ceramic glass can hold heavy utensils BUT hitting
it with sharp objects can break it.
• The smooth glass surface has a pattern to show
where the elements under the glass are located (see
diagram opposite).
• When a hotplate is on, the hot surface warning light
(see diagram opposite), will come on. This light will
continue to glow until the temperature of the hotplate
drops below 60°C.
Check the hotplates on your cooker against the diagrams below before you use your cooker for the first time.

Hotplate Safety Warnings
• DO NOT leave the hotplate on with no pot or pan on top.
• DO NOT use pots and pans which are unsteady, as these could overbalance.
• DO NOT use asbestos mats or heat diffusers. These will cause a temperature build-up which can
damage the cooktop.
• DO NOT allow pots or pans to boil dry. This could damage the hotplate and/or the cooktop.
• DO NOT let cooking utensils get too close to the hotplate control knobs.
• DO NOT use the cooktop as a kitchen bench.
• DO NOT let children on or near the cooktop.
Ceramic hotplates
• ALWAYS switch the cooker off if the ceramic glass top is cracked or broken.
• DO NOT use aluminium foil on the ceramic hotplates.
Note: Stored heat in the hotplate can be used for the last few minutes of cooking.
Simply turn off the control.
Choosing Utensils
Look at this diagram below which shows you which utensils to use on the hotplates and which utensils
should not be used.
• ALWAYS use pots and pans with flat bottoms. Uneven or thin bottoms will waste electricity and cook
slowly.
• ALWAYS use pots and pans which are slightly larger than the hotplate. Small pans waste electricity.
• ALWAYS put pots and pans which are dry on the hotplates.
• DO NOT use pots and pans which are too large. Pans which overhang the hotplate more than 50 mm
can damage enamel cooktops.
Using the Oven of your Gas Cooker
Baking
• With conventional oven models heat comes from the burner
below the food (see diagram opposite).
• The burner is controlled by the thermostat which sets the oven
temperature.
• There is a variation in temperature between the bottom and the
top of the oven. The bottom shelf is the coolest and the top shelf
is the hottest.
Fan Baking (Fan forced oven models)
• With fan forced ovens, heat comes from the burner below the
food (see diagram opposite).
• The fan circulates the hot air and so the temperature is more
even throughout the oven.
• Fan baking:
– cooks faster and at lower temperatures than
conventional baking
– is good when you are cooking food on different shelves
at the the same time.
NOTE: We recommend that you preheat your oven before you turn
the fan on.
