General information

For your safety

Do not block any of the cooker vents.

Never line any part of the cooker with aluminium foil.

Don't let items which can catch fire or electric mains leads such as kettle flexes trail over any part of the cooker.

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.

To move the cooker open the oven door and slide out the oven roof liner. Raise the cooker off its front feet by lifting from inside the oven. Pull the cooker forward. When you replace the cooker push it back to the stop and make sure there is the same gap at each rear corner.

The battery

The battery for the ignition will usually last for many months. If the ignition system doesn't work you probably need to replace the battery.

The battery is located at the front left hand side of the bottom storage compartment.

Open the storage compartment to gain access to the battery holder.

Lift up the battery holder lid and replace the battery as shown in the diagram. Use one AA size battery.

Close the lid of the battery holder.

You can light the burners with a match until you have time to change the battery.
