Be safe
Warning
Accessible parts will become hot in use. To avoid burns and
scalds children should be kept away.
You need clean fresh air - so does your cooker. Burner flames
produce exhaust gases, heat and moisture. Make sure that the
kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open
or install a powered cooker hood that vents outside. If you have
several burners on or use the cooker for a long time, open a
window or turn on an extractor fan. For more detail see the
Installation Instructions.
We recommend you read the ‘General Safety Instructions’
section if you have not used a gas cooker before. We describe
some basic guidelines on how to use a gas cooker safely.
Gas and Electricity on
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the cooker
is wired in and switched on.
The cooker needs electricity.
Peculiar smells
When you first use your cooker it may give off a slight odour.
This should stop after a little use.
Before using for the first time, make sure that all packing
materials have been removed and then to dispel
manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 200°C and run for
an hour.
Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by
opening windows or turning on a cooker hood for example.
We recommend that people with respiratory or allergy
problems should vacate the area for this brief period.
