Introduction This gas cooker has been designed and manufactured to all the necessary British Standards. It also carries the C.E. mark. The cooker complies with European Council Directive 90/396/EEC. It is important that you understand how to use and care for the cooker properly before you use it for the first time.

Lighting the cooker The system works by means of an electric spark system. Details about the plug are given on page 29. Hotplate & Grill To light 1. Lift up the lid. You cannot use the hotplate when the lid is down. 2. Push in the control knob and turn it to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately.
The oven To light: 1 Open the oven door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 9. The oven will light automatically and the light will illuminate. 3 Now turn the control knob back to the gas mark you want. 4 Wait until the burner is showing large flames.
The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food.
Preheating You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or browning food. Positioning food on the grid Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and muffins towards the centre of the grid.
The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan.
The hotplate You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 23 for more information.
10 S I G 5 0 0 For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.
Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. 2 Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. 3 Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen.
The oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler.
Baking trays and dishes Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly. Do not push dishes too far back as food will burn if it overhangs the burner flames. For the best results from the oven we recommend that you use a baking tray which is 310mm (12") square.
Condensation Condensation may form on the cooker. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and moisture are present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture, for example casseroles, are covered.
Oven cooking chart These instructions are for cooking in the oven after it has been pre-heated for 20 minutes. If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or biscuits, sw.

The electronic minute minder The electronic minute minder can also be used to show the time of day. Please note that this is a 24 hour clock, for example 2pm is shown as 1400. In the following pages we explain how to use the minute minder and set the time of day.
To cancel the minute minder If you change your mind and want to cancel the minute minder. 1. Press and release button 1. 2. Press and hold button 1 until 0. 00 shows in the display. After a few seconds the cooking symbol will flash and the time of day will show in the display.
Slow cooking The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn the oven down to the slow cook setting.
Soups, casseroles and stews Do not cook casseroles over 3kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Vegetables Cut into small pieces. Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish.
Care and cleaning Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet. Please note: If we recommend you use hot soapy water we mean hot water with washing up liquid in it and not any other cleaning product.
Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time.
The oven The sides and back of your oven are coated in a special material which helps to keep itself clean. Follow these simple rules to maintain the appearance of the special finish. Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over. Do not put dishes too high in the oven.
Oven cleaning cycle You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to follow the cycle. If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should follow the cleaning cycle once a week.
Cleaning between the outer and inner door glass. You can remove the glass from the oven and grill doors if you need to. Note: For grill door it is important not to open the door when the glass is removed because the door is lighter and it will spring shut.
Cleaning The Door Glass Installing the cooker Location S I G 5 0 0 27 Installation For your safety This cooker must be installed and serviced by a competent person as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) regulations current editions and the IEE Wiring Regulations.
Positioning The diagram shows how close to the cooker cupboards, shelves, curtains and so on can be fitted. Look at the diagram and carefully read the instructions to make sure your cooker is fitted safely. If you are in doubt your installer will give you advice.
General information Moving your cooker You may damage some soft or badly fitted floor coverings when you move the cooker. The floor covering under the cooker should be securely fixed so it does not ruck up when you move the cooker across it. Alternatively you could remove the floor covering.
If you cut the plug off dispose of it safely as it will be a shock hazard if it is inserted into a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the house. If the ignition system doesn't work there may be a fault with the electrical supply.
What is wrong and why? We strongly recommend that you carry out the following checks on your cooker before calling a Service Engineer. Problem The oven, grill or hotplate will not light. Check If only the hotplate burners will not light make sure that the burner parts have been replaced correctly.
Problem Having difficulty cleaning any part of the cooker. Check Check that the instructions for care and cleaning, beginning on page 22 are being followed. Replacing the oven light bulb You need a 25 Watt small Edison screw with a temperature rating of T300.
