Note: Vapours from the oven vents may in time cause discoloration 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 cooker is level after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the front of the cooker 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.

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 discoloration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces including the vent at the rear of the hob. See note at the top of this page.

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

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 cooktime 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 been used for a short time or at low temperatures. Do not switch the cooker off at its power point until the cooling fan has cooled the cooker down.

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 for the required setting.

When the oven has been set for automatic cooking the neon will remain unlit until the cooktime begins.

COOKWARE

Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven.

Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm (12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.
