Stability bracket
If the cooker is fitted with a flexible
connection, a stability bracket should
be fitted to engage in the back of the
cooker. A stability bracket can be
bought from your local supplier.
A stability bracket can be fitted as
follows:
1. Place the cooker in position and
draw a
PENCIL LINE
level with the
front edge.
2. Mark the centre of the cooker to give
the
CENTRE LINE
for the bracket.
3. Remove the cooker and mark off
450mm from the
PENCIL LINE
to
locate the front edge of the lower
bracket.
4. Fix the bracket to the floor.
Measure from floor level to
engagement edge in the back of
the cooker and add 3mm.
5. Assemble the underside of the top
part of the bracket to this height.
Levelling
Place a spirit level on a baking sheet
onto an oven shelf.
The cooker is fitted with levelling feet
and locknuts at the front, and wheels
at the rear.
Adjustment of wheel height can be
made with a screwdriver through the
hexagonal hole in the front plinth.

USING THE HOB
Pans
For optimum safety and performance,
we recommend the use of flat bottomed
pans with a base diameter of minimum
100mm (4”) and maximum 250mm
(10”).
Turn pan handles to a safe position
so they are out of reach of children,
not overhanging the appliance, and
cannot be caught accidentally.
Use pans with a flat base which are
stable in use, and avoid using any old
misshapen pans or any pan which is
unstable when placed on a flat surface.
Position pans over the centre of the
burners, resting on the pan supports.
If positioned off centre, smaller pans
may be unstable.
When cooking with fat or oil, never
leave unattended.
Commercial simmering aids should
not be used as they create excessive
temperatures that can damage the
surface and may cause a hazard.
Pan supports
Make sure that you use the correct-
shaped pan support for the burner you
wish to use.
The wok burner has a different shaped
pan support to the other hotplate
burners. The wok burner must only be
used with this pan support.
