Griddle
Always clean the griddle after use. Allow it to cool com-
pletely before removing. Immerse the griddle plate in hot
soapy water. Use a soft cloth or, for stubborn stains, a
nylon washing up brush.
NEVER USE CAUSTIC OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS AS
THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE.
Grill
The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot soapy
water. After grilling meats or any foods that soil, leave to
soak for a few minutes in the sink immediately after use.
Stubborn particles may be removed from the grid by using
a nylon brush.
Control Panel and Oven Doors
Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream clean-
ers, on brushed Stainless Steel surfaces. For best results
liquid detergents should be used.
The control panel and control knobs should only be
cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy
water - but take care that no surplus water seeps into the
appliance. Wipe with a clean dampened cloth then polish
with a dry cloth. The oven doors should only be cleaned
with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water.
Main Oven
The main oven has removable panels that have been
coated with special enamel that partly cleans itself.
This does not stop all marks on the lining, but helps to
reduce the amount of manual cleaning needed.
The Cook & Clean panels work better above 200°C. If you
do most of your cooking below this temperature, occa-
sionally remove the panels and wipe with a lint free cloth
and hot soapy water. The panels should then be dried
and replaced and the oven heated at 200°C for about one
hour. This will ensure the Cook & Clean panels are work-
ing effectively.
Don’t use steel wool (or any other materials that will
scratch the surface). Don’t use oven cleaning pads.
Removing the Oven Linings
Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning
and for cleaning behind. Remove the shelves first.
Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing screws. You
don’t have to remove the screws to remove the oven lin-
ings. Lift each side panel upwards and they will slide off
the screws. Then pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel interior
can be cleaned.
When replacing the linings fit the side linings first.
The Tall Oven
To clean the oven sides slide
out the shelves, unhook the
supports from the oven sides
and lift out.
Moving your cooker
Switch off the electricity supply.
The cooker is heavy, two people may be required to move
it. There are two levelling rollers at the back and also two
screw down levelling feet at the front.
Open the grill door and right hand oven door so that you
can get a good grip on the bottom of the fascia panel as
you move the oven. Lift the front of the cooker slightly and
pull forward.
Do not move the oven by pulling the door handles or
knobs.
Move the oven a bit at a
time, checking behind it to
make sure the gas hose is
not caught. Make sure both
electricity and gas cables
have sufficient slack to move
the cooker forward as you go
along.
If a stability chain is fitted, release it as you ease the
cooker out. Don’t forget to refit it when you replace the
cooker.
When you replace the cooker, again check behind to
make sure that the electricity and gas cables are not
caught or trapped.
Troubleshooting
Steam is coming from the oven
When cooking foods with a high water content (e.g. oven
chips) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille.
Take care when opening the oven door, as there may be a
momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened.
Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
The oven fan is noisy
The note of the oven fan may change as the oven heats
up - this is perfectly normal.
The knobs get hot when I use the oven
or the grill, can I avoid this?
Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven or the
grill, and heating them up. Don’t leave the oven door
open. Make sure that the grill pan is pushed right back to
the ‘back stop’ when grilling.
If there is an installation problem and I
don’t get my original installer to come
back to fix it who pays?
You do. Service organisations will charge for their call
outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original
installer. It’s in your interest to track down your original
installer.
