Moving the Cooker

Control Panel

Before moving your cooker, switch off at the cooker control unit, ensure that it is cool.

Movement of your cooker is most easily achieved by lifting the front as follows:

Open the oven/grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements or oven interior furniture.

Note: Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy. Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not damaged.

Storage Compartment

To open the storage compartment door gently pull down from both sides together, on closing the door ensure that the catch engages correctly.

Take care as accessible surfaces inside the storage compartment will become hot when the oven is in use.

The storage compartment is ideal for storing saucepans, meat pans, etc. Do not use it for storing combustible materials, flammable liquids or aerosols.

Control Knobs The controls for the hotplates can be turned in either direction to provide variable heat control, the oven/grill knob can only be rotated clockwise from the Off position.

Operating the control when the grill is in use. In common with all cookers having controls sited above the grill compartment, care must be taken when setting the controls, due to hot air being emitted from the grill compartment.

Always ensure that all controls are in the OFF position, when appliance is not in use.

Safety requirements for deep fat frying :

1.Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area.

2.Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.

3.Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking period.

4.Never try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting in greasy food.

5.Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods, in particular, will cause frothing and spitting, if added too quickly.

6.Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.

7.Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.
