As a helpful guide to showing the temperature range of the oven the temperature gauge
has been colour coded from blue to red. Each colour represents the following approximate
temperature range.
6.9 Maintaining the correct flue temperature for efficient,
economical and safe operation
It is very important that the flue temperature is maintained above
115 deg C (240 deg F) when operating the Range.
Below this temperature tar may build up in the flue or chimney, increasing the risk of a
chimney fire.
The magnetic stove thermometer supplied with the Range should be installed on the flue
and a temperature of 115 deg C (240 Deg F) or above maintained when in use.
WARNING
It is recommended that the Oven Temperature control is used in the “1”
Position (Hottest) for limited periods only.
If the Range is on low fire there is an increased risk that the flue
temperature may drop below 115 Deg C and tar may form in the chimney.
