INSTALLATION
Any gas installation must be carried out by a
qualified gas installer or competent person, and
in accordance with existing rules and regulations.
The relevant instructions are to be found in the second
section of this manual.
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
WHEN THE COOKER IS FIRST INSTALLED
Once the cooker has been installed, it is important
to remove any protective materials, which were
put on in the factory.
Before the First Use of the Cooker
Remove
all packaging
, both inside and outside
the oven,
before using the oven.
Before first use, the oven should be heated without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is quite normal.
1. Switch the oven function control knob to fan
cooking
.
2. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.
3. Open a window for ventilation.
4. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45
minutes.
This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Condensation and Steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same
way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of
this steam to escape. However,
always stand back
from the oven when opening the oven door
to allow
any build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on
the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense
and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is
not a fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Hints and Tips
Always cook with the oven door closed.
Stand clear when opening the drop down
oven door. Do not allow it to fall open -
support the door using the door handle, until
it is fully open.
The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied
with two shelves.
The shelf positions are counted from the bottom
of the oven as shown in the diagram.
It is important that these shelves are correctly
positioned as shown in the diagram.
•Do not place cookware directly on the oven
base.
Using the Oven
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer is located underneath the oven
cavity.
During cooking the storage drawer may become
hot if the oven is on high for a long period of time,
therefore flammable materials such as oven
gloves, tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not
be stored in the drawer.
Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will
also become hot, therefore care should be taken
when removing these items from the drawer
whilst the oven is in use or still hot.
