Oven Temperature Control
The oven temperature is controlled by a thermostatic gas tap and is variable over the
range 130°C to 240°C. The temperature settings on t he control knob refer to the centre of
the oven and at any particular setting the oven will be hotter at the top and cooler towards
the base. The variation between top and centre, and centre to bottom is approximately
equivalent to one gas mark. Care should be taken not to overload the oven, ensure
adequate spacing when cooking more than one item to allow free circulation of heat.

Leaks
If a smell of gas becomes apparent, the supply should be turned off at the cylinder
IMMEDIATELY. Extinguish naked lights including cigarettes and pipes. Do not operate
electrical switches. Open all doors and windows to disperse any gas escape.
Butane/Propane gas is heavier than air; any escaping gas will collect at a low level. The
strong unpleasant smell of gas will enable the general area of the leak to be detected.
Check that the gas is not escaping from an unlighted appliance. Never check for leaks with
a naked flame, leak investigation should be carried out using a leak detector spray.
This appliance needs little maintenance other than cleaning. All parts should be cleaned
using warm soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool or cleansing powders.
When cleaning the burner ring it is essential to ensure that the holes do not become
blocked. The control knobs are a push fit and can be removed for cleaning.
