Note: Vapours from the oven vent may in time cause discolouration of wallcoverings behind the cooker. For ease of cleaning it may be preferable to tile behind the cooker.

Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a minimum of 685mm above the hob.

It is important to ensure that the appliance is level after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front of the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR COOKER

We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 - 15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from their surfaces.

The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.

During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

OVEN INDICATOR NEON

The light will indicate whether the oven is switched on, the neon also indicates when the set temperature has been reached. The neon will turn on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained.

ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the cooker 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 cooker, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
