Using Your Main Oven
Getting started
The main oven may be controlled by the programmer (see The Programmer/Clock for details).
The programmer must be set to manual before it can be used, or programmed.
Switching on the conventional oven
● To turn on: Using the main oven control knob, push in and turn to the full on position.
● If there is auto ignition it should then light the oven. If auto ignition is not fitted, use the ignition button, or a lighted match or taper.
With FSD: Hold the control knob in for 15 seconds.
● It can take up to 60 seconds for the oven burner to come on at the full rate, and the oven burner may not come on to full rate unless the oven door is closed.
● The automatic ignition may continue to spark for a short time after the burner has lit until the flame establishes. If the automatic ignition does not work (i.e. there is a power cut) use a lighted match or taper to light the burner.
To adjust: Turn the control knob to the heat setting (gas mark) you wish to use and allow the oven to
‘ / ‘OFF’ position.
● The cooling fan will come on during use, and may continue to run for some time afterwards.
● Important: In the event of the of the burner flames being accidentally being extinguished, turn off the the oven and do not attempt to
Note:
Using a gas appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Always ensure that the room is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open, or install a mechanical ventilation device (i.e. an extractor hood). Prolonged use of the appliance may call for additional ventialtion, for example opening a window, or more effective ventilation such as increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.

iUse dishes which are appropriate for the foods you are cooking. Damaged, or cracked dishes may shatter. Poor quality tins and backing trays may warp, producing uneven results.
iThe heat setting, or gas mark corresponds to the temperature in the cen- tre of the the oven.
The oven is hotter towards the top, and cooler towards the bot- tom. Please be aware of this when setting up the oven shelves before cooking. The base of the oven can also be used as a cooking posi- tion which is equivalent to gas mark 1 - 2.
