Frequently Asked Questions - GFC60 ARC

How do I preheat the oven?

Turn the function selector to the desired cooking mode (e.g., convection). Set the temperature using the thermostat knob or digital control. Wait until the indicator light turns off, indicating that the set temperature has been reached.

How can I clean the oven interior?

After the oven has cooled, remove all shelves and trays. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tough stains, use a non-abrasive oven cleaner. The interior is enamel-coated; do not use steam cleaners.

What should I do if the oven does not heat up?

Check that the oven is properly plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. Ensure the function and temperature are set. If it still does not heat, the heating element or thermostat may be faulty; contact a qualified technician.

How do I set the timer?

Press the timer button (if digital) or turn the timer knob. Set the desired cooking time. Once set, the oven will automatically shut off when the time elapses. An audible alarm will sound.

Can I use grill and convection together?

Yes, many models combine grill and fan for even grilling. Select the 'Fan Grill' or 'Grill + Fan' function on your selector. This helps distribute heat and reduce cooking time.

How do I replace the oven light?

Turn off the power at the fuse box. Remove the glass cover by unscrewing or prying it off (depending on model). Replace the bulb with a new one of the same type (typically 25W/40W, T300°C). Screw the cover back on and restore power.

My oven door does not close properly. What can I do?

Check for obstructions such as food debris on the door gasket. If the hinge is damaged, the door may need adjustment. For faulty hinges or gaskets, contact customer service for spare parts.

Is the oven energy efficient?

Description	Explanation
Zone indicators	These show which zone is under control.
Flame power	Flame power of the zones. ▲ is the lowest and is the highest.

The hotplates are fitted with mains powered electronic spark ignitors, so must be connected to mains power supply (i.e. nominal 220\~240 V ac) to operate. If power is not available, the hotplate will still work but the burners will have to be lit with a match or similar.

Depressing the gas control knob of any burner will activate the spark ignition for all burners. To light the burner, turn the gas control knob to the High Flame setting of the burner to be lit, while at the same time depressing the gas control knob to activate the spark ignition.

Once the burner is alight continue to depress the gas control knob for 5 – 10 seconds to allow the flame safeguard to activate. If when you release the gas control knob, the burner flame goes out the flame safeguard has not heated up enough so repeat the ignition procedure after waiting 1 minute for gas to disperse. If problems with burner lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions.

If power is not available, light a match or similar, then turn the gas control knob for the burner to be lit, to the High Flame setting. Once again if problems with burner lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions.

When burner lights, adjust desired flame height. On finishing, turn control knob to off position marked with a black DOT.

BURNER AND UTENSIL CHOICE

The maximum utensil (pan) diameters in millimeters (mm) for each burner are:

1. For Natural Gas hotplates

Auxiliary (small) and Semi-Rapid (medium) =

195 mm

Rapid (large) = 230 mm

Triple ring (wok) = 270 mm

1. For Universal LPG hotplates

Auxiliary (small), Semi-Rapid (medium) and Rapid (large) = 195 mm

Triple ring (wok) = 230 mm

The minimum ulensil (pan) diameters in millimeters (mm) for each burner are:

Auxiliary (small) = 80 mm

and Semi-Rapid (medium) = 140 mm

Rapid (large) and Triple ring (wok) = 195 mm

For best efficiency and to ensure utensil handle does not overheat, place the utensil centrally on the burner and adjust the flame height so all the flame remains under the utensil.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out with the appliance cold especially when cleaning the enameled parts. Avoid leaving alkaline or acid substances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces.

STAINLESS STEEL

The stainless steel hob of the hotplate must be cleaned regularly (e.g. weekly) to ensure long life expectancy of the hotplate.

Ensure hotplate has cooled. Wash down with warm soapy water and rinse with clean water.
