Fitted Equipment
To light the oven
1. Open the oven door and turn the control
knob anticlockwise to the required gas
mark. Push in and hold in the control
knob, and either press the ignition button
(if fitted) or use a hand held spark ignitor
or gas lighter.
2. Once the burner has lit, close the oven
door and hold the knob in for 15-20
seconds.
3. If the flame goes out, the flame sensing
device cuts off the gas supply to the
burner. To light the oven again, wait for 3
minutes then repeat the above procedure.
To turn off - Push in the control knob and
turn clockwise.
Preheating
The oven must be preheated for 10 minutes
when reheating frozen or chilled food, and
we recommend preheating for all yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflÈs and whisked
sponges.
Using the oven
The shelf positions in the oven can be
altered. If you prefer darker cooked results,
cook on a higher shelf. For paler results use
a lower shelf.
The cake tray and roasting tin that are
supplied with this appliance are the largest
which can be used for good results and even
baking. Extra shelves, tins or trays can be
ordered from your supplier.
Place food items on the tray and position the
tray on the centre of the shelf, leaving one
clear shelf position between shelves to allow
for circulation of air.
CLEANING
Caution: Any cleaning agent used
incorrectly may damage the appliance.
Always let the appliance cool before
cleaning.
Some cooking operations generate a
considerable amount of grease. This
combined with spillage can become a hazard
if allowed to accumulate on the appliance
through lack of cleaning. In extreme cases
this may amount to misuse of the appliance
and could invalidate your guarantee.
Do not use caustic pastes, abrasive cleaning
powders, coarse wire wool or any hard
implements as they will damage the
surfaces.
All parts of the appliance can be safely
cleaned with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy
water.
Burner caps and heads
Important: Allow burners to cool before
cleaning.
Caution: Hotplate burners can be damaged
by soaking, automatic dishwashers (or
dishwater powders/liquids), caustic pastes,
hard implements, coarse wire wool and
abrasive cleaning pastes.
For the burners to work safely, the slots in
the burner head, where the flames burn,
need to be kept clear of deposit. Clean with
a nylon brush, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean with a mild cream cleaner eg; Jif, or
use a moist soapy Brillo pad.
Note: Fixed burners (if fitted): Some versions
incorporate fixed burners. These burners are
secured to the hob with 2 screws. Fixed
burners must be cleaned whilst in position.
Make sure that the gap between the burner
and the hotplate does not become blocked
with grease.
