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. PLEASE NOTE that a charge will be made. See the enclosed Customer Care Booklet.
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 appliance 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 appliance, 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.
For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill or top oven are switched on and after a time when the main fan oven is in use. The operation of the cooling fan is temperature dependent in the case of the main oven and the cooling fan may not switch in at all at low temperature settings or where the main oven has only been used for a short time.
The cooling fan may run on after the control knobs have been switched off until the cooker has cooled. If an automatic programme has been set the cooling fan does not come on until the cooktime begins.
Do not switch the cooker off at its power point until the cooling fan has cooled the cooker down.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker:
1 grill pan
1 grill pan handle
1 grill pan grid
1 grill deflector
1 cranked shelf for grilling and top oven cooking only
3 straight shelves
for main oven cooking
The grill deflector sits above the grill element and prevents fat splashing onto the grill roof.
The deflector may be easily removed for cleaning.
Scuffing of the Stayclean main oven lining by the oven furniture pack may occur during transit. These marks will disappear after the oven elements have been burnt off for the first time.
