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.

REVERSIBLE MAIN OVEN DOOR

If you require the oven door to be hinged on the opposite side, you will need to contact a qualified Service Engineer. See page 34 for your nearest Service Centre. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will be made.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR COOKER

We suggest that you run all the elements for a short period to burn off any residue from their surfaces. To do this, run the ovens at 220°C for approximately 45 minutes. The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.

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

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 cooker.

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

For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.

POP IN POP OUT CONTROL KNOBS

These control knobs can remain flush with the control panel when not in use, or pushed and released to stand out from the panel for easy operation.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

The cooling fan operates immediately when the grill or top oven is switched on. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. If an automatic programme has been set the cooling fan does not switch on until the cook time begins.

NOTE:The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the top oven or grill have been used and at what temperature. It may not run on where the grill or top oven has only been used for a short time or at low temperatures. Do not switch the cooker off at the power point, until the fan has cooled the cooker down.

THE SHELF POSITIONS

Recommended shelf positions have been shown in the cooking charts on pages 22 and 26.

Bulk cooking with even spacing can be achieved using three shelves at any one time, e.g. position 1 straight, position 3 straight and position 5 straight.

It is important that the shelves are fitted right side uppermost and are between the wirework side runners.

If not fitted correctly the shelf will lie at an angle and the safety stop will not be effective. To ensure that the shelf has the correct side uppermost, the wire stringers which make up the shelf should lie on top of the surrounding frame.

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS

These lights indicate whether the ovens are switched on. The neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached. They will cycle on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained. If the neons do not operate as the instructions indicate the controls have been incorrectly set. Return all controls to zero and re-set following the instructions. When the oven has been set for automatic cooking the neon should remain unlit until the cook time begins.
