Frequently Asked Questions - Kitchener 100 RANGEMASTER

How do I install the Kitchener 100 cooker?
Installation must be carried out by a qualified engineer. Ensure the cooker is level and all gas connections are secure. Allow adequate ventilation per the manual. Never attempt DIY installation.
Why does the oven not heat up?
Check that the power supply is switched on and the oven function is selected. If the display is blank, the fuse may have blown. If problem persists, contact customer support.
How do I clean the hob burners?
Remove the burner caps and soak in warm soapy water. Clean the burner heads with a soft brush. Ensure they are completely dry before reassembly. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Can I use the gas hob during a power cut?
Yes, the gas hob can be lit with a match in case of a power cut. However, the ovens and grill will not work due to electric components.
How do I activate the child lock?
Press and hold the lock icon on the control panel for 5 seconds until the indicator light comes on. To deactivate, repeat the process.
What is the recommended oven temperature for baking?
For most baking, use the fan function at 160-180°C. Preheat the oven for 10-15 minutes. Always refer to your recipe for guidance.
Why is there a gas smell when using the grill?
The grill is electric, not gas, so a gas smell indicates a leak. Turn off the gas supply, ventilate the room, and contact your installer immediately. Do not use the appliance.
How often should I replace the oven door seal?
Inspect the seal regularly for cracks or wear. Replace it if it no longer holds a tight seal. Use only genuine Rangemaster parts.
Can I cook simultaneously in both ovens?
Yes, both ovens can be used independently. However, note that the total power consumption may be high. Ensure your electrical circuit can handle the load.
Where can I download the manual?
The manual is available for free on notice-facile.com. Search for 'Rangemaster Kitchener 100' and download the PDF. Keep it for future reference.

Installation and Maintenance

  • It is recommended that this appliance is serviced annually.
  • WARNING: Before replacing the oven lamp, turn off the power supply and make sure that the oven is cool.
  • DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap the edges.
  • Unless specified otherwise in this guide, always allow the cooker to cool and then switch it off at the mains before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work.
  • DO NOT use the control knobs to manoeuvre the cooker.
  • NEVER operate the cooker with wet hands.
  • DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a glove – it might catch fire if brought into contact with a hot surface.
  • DO NOT use hotplate protectors, foil or hotplate covers of any description. These may affect the safe use of your hotplate burners and are potentially hazardous to health.
  • NEVER heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make the containers burst and cause injury.

  • WARNING: Use only hob guards designed by the manufacturer of the cooking appliance or indicated by the manufacturer of the appliance in the instructions for use as suitable or hob guards incorporated in the appliance. The use of inappropriate guards can cause accidents.

  • DO NOT use unstable saucepans. Always make sure that you position the handles away from the edge of the hotplate.
  • NEVER leave the hotplate unattended at high heat settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking, and greasy spills may catch on fire. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent fat overheating beyond the smoking point.

WARNING: Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or oil can be dangerous and may result in fire.
▲ NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off the appliance and then cover the flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.

  • NEVER leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should be only one third full of fat.
  • WARNING: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking surfaces.
  • NEVER try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them together before heating, or as the fats melt.
  • Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills or overheating of foods when frying at high or medium high temperatures.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Installation and Maintenance - 1

Fig. 1.1

  • DO NOT use the top of the flue (the slot along the back of the cooker) for warming plates, dishes, drying tea towels or softening butter.
  • DO NOT use water on grease fires and never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off and then smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If available, use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
  • DO NOT modify this appliance. This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external timer or separated remote-control system.
  • If flammable materials are stored in the drawer, oven(s) or grill(s) it may explode and result in fire or property damage.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Peculiar Smells

When you first use your cooker it may give off an odour. This should stop after use.

Before using for the first time, make sure that all packing materials have been removed and then, to dispel manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 200 °C and run for at least an hour.

Before using the grill for the first time you should also turn on the grill and run for 30 minutes with the grill pan in position, pushed fully back and the grill door open.

Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air (see 'Ventilation' below). People with respiratory or allergy problems should vacate the area for this brief period.

Ventilation

The use of a cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Therefore, make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a powered cookerhood that vents outside. If you have several hotplates/burners on, or use the cooker for a long time, open a window or turn on an extractor fan

Oven Care

  • When the oven is not in use and before attempting to clean the cooker always be certain that the control knobs are in the OFF position.
  • Use oven gloves to protect your hand from potential burns.
  • Cooking high moisture content foods can create a 'steam burst' when the oven door is opened (Fig. 1.1). When opening the oven, stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
  • The inside door face is constructed with toughened safety glass. Take care NOT to scratch the surface when cleaning the glass panel.
  • Accidental damage may cause the door glass panel to fracture.
  • Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
  • DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
  • Make sure the shelves are pushed firmly to the back of the oven. DO NOT close the door against the oven shelves.
  • DO NOT use aluminium foil to cover shelves, linings or the oven roof.
  • When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the oven door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the control knobs may become very hot.

  • DO NOT use the timed oven if the adjoining oven is already warm.

  • DO NOT place warm food in the oven to be timed.
  • DO NOT use a timed oven that is already warm.
  • Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp gloves might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface.

Hob Care

  • NEVER allow anyone to climb or stand on the hob.
  • DO NOT use the hob surface as a cutting board.
  • DO NOT leave utensils, foodstuffs or combustible items on the hob when it is not in use (e.g. tea towels, frying pans containing oil).
  • DO NOT place plastic or aluminium foil, or plastic containers on the hob.
    • Always turn the control to the OFF position before removing a pan.
  • Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage both the hob and pan.

Grill/Glide-out Grill™ Care

WARNING: Unattended cooking under the grill can be dangerous and may result in fire.

  • When using the grill, make sure that the grill pan is in position and pushed fully in, otherwise the control knobs may become very hot.
  • DO NOT leave the grill on for more than a few moments without the grill pan underneath it, otherwise the knobs may become hot.
  • NEVER close the grill door when the grill is on.

- Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.

Cooling Fan

This appliance has a cooling fan, which will operate when the appliance has been in use for a period of time.

Under certain circumstances, the cooling fan may remain active when the grill or ovens are switched off. This is normal and the fan will switch off automatically.

Cooker Care

As steam can condense to water droplets on the cool outer trim of the oven, it may be necessary during cooking to wipe away any moisture with a soft cloth. This will also help to prevent soiling and discolouration of the oven exterior by cooking vapours.

Cleaning

  • Isolate the electricity supply before carrying out any thorough cleaning. Allow the cooker to cool.
  • In the interests of hygiene and safety, the cooker should be kept clean at all times as a build up in fats and other food stuff could result in a fire.

- Clean only the parts listed in this guide.

- Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

- NEVER use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.

- DO NOT mix different cleaning products – they may react together with hazardous results.

  • All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy water.
    • Take care that no water seeps into the appliance.
  • Before you remove any of the grill parts for cleaning, make sure that they are cool or use oven gloves.
  • DO NOT use any abrasive substances on the grill and grill parts.
  • DO NOT put the side runners in a dishwasher.
  • DO NOT put the burner heads in a dishwasher.
  • NEVER use caustic or abrasive cleaners as these will damage the surface.
  • DO NOT use steel wool, oven cleaning pads or any other materials that will scratch the surface.
  • NEVER store flammable materials in the drawer. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plastic ware and towels, as well as flammable liquids.
  • DO NOT store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance.
  • DO NOT use steel wool, oven cleaning pads, or any other materials that will scratch the surface.
  • DO NOT attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on, otherwise an electric shock could result.

2. Cooker Overview

A B C D E

Fig. 2.1

The 100 gas cooker (Fig. 2.1) has the following features:

A. 5 hotplate burners including a wok burner
B. A control panel incorporating a timer
C. A separate grill or glide-out grill (depending on model)
D. Main oven
E. Tall fan oven

Hotplate Burners

The drawing by each of the central knobs indicates which burner that knob controls.

Each burner has a Flame Supervision Device (FSD) that prevents the flow of gas if the flame goes out.

When the igniter button is pressed in, sparks will be made at every burner – this is normal. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on, otherwise an electric shock could result.

To light a burner, press the igniter button, and push in and turn the associated control knob to the high position as indicated by the large flame symbol (▲), (Fig. 2.2).

The igniter should spark and light the gas. Keep holding the knob pressed in to let the gas through to the burner for about ten seconds.

If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner goes out, then the FSD has not been bypassed. Turn the control knob to the OFF position and wait for one minute before you try again, this time making sure to hold in the control knob for slightly longer.

Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob counterclockwise (Fig. 2.3).

If a burner flame goes out, turn off the control knob and leave it for one minute before relighting it.

Make sure that the flames are under the pans. Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly (Fig. 2.4).

Large pans should be spaced well apart.

Pans and kettles with concave bases or down-turned base rims should not be used (Fig. 2.5).

Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are NOT recommended (Fig. 2.6). They will reduce burner performance and could damage the pan supports.

You should also avoid using unstable and misshapen pans that may tilt easily, and pans with a very small base diameter, e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers (Fig. 2.7).

The minimum recommended pan diameter is 120 mm. The maximum allowable pan base diameter is 260 mm.

DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap the edges.

Wok Burner

The wok burner is designed to provide even heat over a large area. It is ideal for large pans and stir-frying (Fig. 2.8).

For heating smaller pans, the aforementioned hotplate burners may be more efficient.

You can remove the burner parts for cleaning; see 'Cleaning Your Cooker'.

You should wipe the enamel top surface of the cooker around the hotplate burners as soon as possible after spills occur. Try to wipe them off while the enamel is still warm.

Note: The use of aluminium pans may cause metallic marking of the pan supports. This does not affect the durability of the enamel and may be cleaned off with an appropriate metal cleaner.

The Wok Cradle (optional extra)

The wok cradle is designed to fit a 35 cm wok. If you use a different wok, make sure that it fits the cradle. Woks vary very widely in size and shape. It is important that the wok sits down on the pan support – however, if it is too small, the cradle will not support it properly (Fig. 2.9).

The cradle should be used on the wok burner only. When you fit the cradle make sure that it is supported properly on a pan support and the wok is sitting level in the cradle (Fig. 2.10).

The cradle will get very hot in use – allow plenty of time for it to cool before you pick it up.

The Griddle

The griddle fits the left-hand pan support, front to back (Fig. 2.11). It is designed for cooking food on directly. DO NOT use pans of any kind on it. The griddle surface is non-stick and metal cooking utensils (e.g. spatulas) will damage the surface. Use heat resistant plastic or wooden utensils.

Do not put it crossways – it will not fit properly and will be unstable (Fig. 2.12).
Do not put it on any other burner – it is not designed to fit in any of the other pan supports.

Position the griddle over the hotplate burners resting on the pan support. Check that it is securely located.

The griddle can be lightly brushed with cooking oil before use (Fig. 2.13). Light the hotplate burners. Adjust the flame heights to suit.

Preheat the griddle for a maximum of 5 minutes before adding food. Leaving it longer may cause damage. Turn the control knobs towards the low position, marked with the small flame symbol, to reduce the burner flames.

Always leave space around the griddle for the gases to escape.
NEVER fit two griddles side by side (Fig. 2.14).

After cooking, allow the griddle to cool before cleaning.

The Grill / Glide-out Grill

CAUTION: This appliance is for cooking purposes only. It must not be used for other purposes, for example room heating.
CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.

Open the door and, using the handle, pull the grill pan (Fig. 2.15) or carriage (Fig. 2.16) forward.

The burner does not glow red when in use; food cooks from the heat of the flame. The first time you light the grill there may be a little smoke given off – this is perfectly normal.

The grill has a special safety device which stops the flow of gas if the flame goes out.

To turn on the grill, press the igniter button and then press and hold the grill control knob to the large flame symbol (A) for about 10 seconds (Fig. 2.17).

If, when you release the control knob the burner goes out, then the safety device has not held in. Turn the grill control knob to '0' and wait for one minute. Repeat the operation but hold the button and control knob in for slightly longer.

The low position, marked with the small flame symbol, is beyond high, not between high and off (Fig. 2.18).

For best results, slide the grill pan back into the grill chamber and preheat the appropriate part(s) of the grill for two minutes. The grill trivet can be removed and the food placed on it while you are waiting for the grill to preheat.

DO NOT leave the grill on for more than a few moments without the grill pan underneath it, otherwise the knobs may become hot.

Once the grill has preheated, slide the grill pan out again. With the trivet back in place with the food on it, slide the pan back into the grill chamber. Make sure that it is pushed right in.

The grill pan trivet can be turned over to give two grilling positions (Fig. 2.19).

Never close the grill door when the grill is on.

The Ovens

The clock must be set to the time of day before the left-hand oven will work. See the following section on 'The Clock' for instructions on setting the time of day.

References to 'left-hand' and 'right-hand' ovens apply as viewed from the front of the appliance.

The left-hand oven is a programmable gas oven and the right-hand oven is a tall fan oven.

Note: Please remember that all cookers vary so temperatures in your new ovens may differ to those in your previous cooker.

The Gas Oven

The gas oven uses our special 'Heatflow' system.

As the oven burner is not hidden under the oven base you will see the burner flames at the back of the oven (Fig. 2.20). This is perfectly normal.

The oven is protected by a safety cut-off, which reduces the supply of gas to the oven if the flames go out, e.g. and interruption to the mains supply. Initially the gas will burn with a small flame but after approximately one minute the flame will become larger indicating that the oven is full on.

Dishes cooking on the central shelf will cook at the gas mark indicated on the knob (Fig. 2.21).

Dishes placed above the central position will cook at approximately one gas mark higher; dishes placed below will cook at approximately one gas mark lower (Fig. 2.22). You can therefore cook dishes requiring different temperatures at the same time.

'S' (Slow) Cooking (Left-hand Oven)

The 'S' setting (Fig. 2.23) is a very low temperature for slow cooking, overnight or while you are out or at work. The 'S' setting can also be used for keeping food warm.

You can cook on 'S' throughout, or use a 30 minute 'boost' period at gas mark 6 and then 'S' cook.

When roasting joints, poultry or pot roasting, always cook at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes at the beginning of the cooking period.

You can 'S' cook for periods of 6 to 12 hours. This technique is particularly useful if you want to cook a dish overnight or while you are out at work during the day.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - 'S' (Slow) Cooking (Left-hand Oven) - 1

Frozen foods must be thoroughly thawed out before 'S' cooking.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - 'S' (Slow) Cooking (Left-hand Oven) - 2

Whole poultry should not be cooked on 'S'. Chicken casseroles are fine.

Casseroles must be brought to boiling point on the hotplate immediately before 'S' cooking.

DO NOT stuff poultry and rolled joints before cooking.

The stuffing should be cooked separately. Poultry and pork should be cooked in the top half of the oven, and other meats not lower than shelf position 4.

Table 2.1

A roasting joint should be covered with cooking foil or with a roasting bag to reduce shrinkage and retain juices.

Should further browning be necessary, uncover the meat and increase the temperature to gas mark 4 for a short period.

Cut root vegetables into small pieces unless cooking whole, e.g. jacket potatoes.

Cover dishes tightly with a lid or foil to prevent evaporation and transfer of flavour.

Once the oven has been loaded and the 'S' setting is in operation resist the temptation to open the oven door. Heat will be lost and the cooking time extended.

A meat thermometer is recommended for checking that a joint or poultry is sufficiently cooked. Insert the probe through the thickest part of the meat. For the expected temperatures see Table 2.1

The Fan Oven

The right-hand oven is a fan oven that circulates hot air continuously, which means faster, more even cooking.

The recommended cooking temperatures for a fan oven are generally lower than a conventional oven.

Operating the Ovens

Operating the Gas Oven

Push in and turn the knob controlling the oven to gas mark 9 (Fig. 2.24). The oven will light automatically.

Turn the oven knob to the desired gas mark (Fig. 2.25).

Operating the Fan Oven

Turn the oven knob to the desired temperature (Fig. 2.26).

The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has reached the temperature selected (Fig. 2.27). It will then cycle on and off during cooking.

Accessories

Oven Shelves – Left-hand (Main) Oven

The cooker is supplied with 2 flat shelves (Fig. 2.28).

The oven shelves can be easily removed and refitted.

Pull the shelf forward until the back of the shelf is stopped by the shelf stop bumps in the oven sides (Fig. 2.29).

Lift up the front of the shelf so the back of the shelf will pass under the shelf stop and then pull the shelf forward (Fig. 2.30).

To refit the shelf, line up the shelf with a groove in the oven side and push the shelf back until the ends hit the shelf stop. Lift up the front so the shelf ends clear the shelf stops, and then lower the front so that the shelf is level and push it fully back (Fig. 2.31).

Oven Shelves – Right-hand (Tall) Oven

The tall oven is supplied with four flat cooking shelves (Fig. 2.32), and a plate warming shelf (Fig. 2.33).

When using the tall oven, you can cook on all four shelves at the same time, but make sure that they are well spaced out to allow the hot air to circulate.

The Handyrack (Main Oven)

The Handyrack (Fig. 2.34) fits to the left-hand oven door only. Food cooking on it is easy to attend to, because it is accessible when the door is open.

The maximum weight that can be held by the Handyrack is 5.5 kg (12 lb). It should only be used with the supplied roasting tin, which is designed to fit the Handyrack. Any other vessel could be unstable.

It can be fitted at two different heights. One of the oven shelves must be removed and the other positioned to suit.

When the Handyrack is used in its highest position, other dishes can be cooked on the bottom shelf position or base of the oven.

When the Handyrack is used in its lowest position, other dishes can be cooked on the second shelf position or base of the oven.

To fit the Handyrack, locate one side of it on the door bracket (Fig. 2.35).

Then spring the other side out to clip it onto the other bracket (Fig. 2.36).

Main Oven Light

Press the button to turn the light on (Fig. 2.37).

If the oven light fails, turn off the power supply before changing the bulb. See the 'Troubleshooting' section for details on how to change the bulb.

6. Cooking tips

Tips on cooking with the timer

If you want to cook more than one dish, choose dishes that require approximately the same cooking time. However, dishes can be 'slowed down' slightly by using small containers and covering them with aluminium foil, or 'speeded up' slightly by cooking smaller quantities or placing them in larger containers.

Very perishable foods such as pork or fish should be avoided if a long delay period is planned, especially in hot weather.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Tips on cooking with the timer - 1

DO NOT place warm food in the oven to be timed.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Tips on cooking with the timer - 2

DO NOT use a timed oven that is already warm.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Tips on cooking with the timer - 3

DO NOT use the timed oven if the adjoining oven is already warm.

Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted before being placed in the oven. Check that meat and poultry are fully cooked before serving.

General oven tips

The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven.

Baking trays with food cooking on them should be placed level with the front edge of the oven's wire shelves. Other containers should be placed centrally. Keep all trays and containers away from the back of the oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.

For even browning, the maximum recommended size of a baking tray is:

  • depth: 340 mm (13 12 ") by width: 340 mm (13 12 ") in the main oven
  • depth: 321 mm (12 58 ") by width: 289 mm (11 38 ") in the tall oven.

When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get very hot.

- Always leave a "finger's width" between dishes on the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate freely around them.

- To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.

- Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking, place them on a baking tray.

- The 'Cook & Clean' oven liners (see 'Cleaning Your Cooker') work better when fat splashes are avoided. Cover meat when cooking with foil or use a roasting bag.

- Sufficient heat rises out of the oven while cooking to warm plates in the grill compartment.

- If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish, preheat the baking tray for 15 minutes before placing the dish in the centre of the tray.

7. Cooking Table

The oven control settings and cooking times given in the table below are intended to be used as a guide only. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to provide a preferred result.

Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven than in a conventional oven. When using recipes, reduce the fan oven temperature by 10 °C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. The temperature in the fanned oven does not vary with height in the oven so you can use any shelf.

8. Cleaning your cooker

Essential Information

Isolate the electricity supply before carrying out any thorough cleaning. Allow the cooker to cool.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Essential Information - 1

NEVER use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Essential Information - 2

DO NOT mix different cleaning products – they may react together with hazardous results.

All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy water – but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.

Remember to switch on the electricity supply and reset the clock before re-using the cooker.

Hotplate Burners

The burner heads and caps can be removed for cleaning.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Hotplate Burners - 1

DO NOT put the burner heads in a dishwasher.

Make sure they are absolutely dry before replacing them.

The Single Ring Burners

When refitting the burner head, make sure that the notch lines up with the electrode or hole in the base. Check that the burner head is level and that the cap is fitted centrally on the burner head (Fig. 8.1).

The Wok Burner

The wok burner can also be taken apart for cleaning.

When reassembling the wok burner (Fig. 8.2), turn over the large base ring and find the 'D' shaped area (Fig. 8.3). Turn the head until the 'D' matches the one on the burner base. Flip the burner over once again and place it on the burner base.

Check the burner slots are not blocked. If a blockage occurs, remove stubborn particles using a toothbrush (Fig. 8.4).

Now fit the two burner caps, making sure that they are seated properly.

Check the burner ports are not blocked. If a blockage occurs, remove stubborn particles using a piece of fuse wire.

The Wok Cradle

Recommended cleaning materials are hot soapy water, a moistened soap pad, cream cleaner or a nylon scourer.

The Griddle

Always clean the griddle after use. Allow it to cool completely before removing. Immerse the griddle plate in hot soapy water. Use a soft cloth or, for stubborn stains, a nylon washing up brush.

NOTE: If the griddle is washed in a dishwasher then some dishwasher residue may appear on the back. This is normal and will not affect the performance of your griddle.

Grill

Before you remove any of the grill parts for cleaning. make sure that they are cool, or use oven gloves.

DO NOT use any abrasive substances.

Cleaning the Glide-out Grill

The grill pan can be easily removed for cleaning as follows:

Remove the grill pan support frame by pulling the grill pan forward (Fig. 8.5).

Lift the grill pan clear of the support frame. The support frame is held to the side rails by two clips on each side (Fig. 8.6).

For each side, support the side rail with one hand and with the other hand lift the frame up and out of the side clips (Fig. 8.7).

For safety, push the side rails back into the grill chamber.

If you need to remove the side rails to allow cleaning of the grill chamber, you can unhook them from the grill chamber sides (Fig. 8.8) and wipe the sides clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent.

DO NOT put the side runners in a dishwasher.

Once you have finished, hook the side rails back onto the sides of the chamber. To refit the frame, pull the side rails forward and, for each side in turn, support the side rail and press the frame down into the side rails.

Refit the grill pan. When refitting the grill pan, make sure that the wide rim is at the front (Fig. 8.9).

Control Panel and Doors

Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream cleaners. For best results, use a liquid detergent.

The same cleaner can be used on the doors or, alternatively using a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water – but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.

After cleaning, polish with a dry cloth.

Glass Fronted Door Panels

The oven door front panels can be taken off so that the glass panels can be cleaned. Move the cooker forward to gain access to the sides (see the 'Moving the Cooker' section under 'Installation').

Open the oven door slightly and remove the front panel fixing screws from the door sides, two each side (Fig. 8.10).

Carefully lift off the outer door panel. The inside face of the glass panels can now be cleaned – take care not to disturb or wet the door insulation.

NOTE: If the door is triple glazed then the inner two panels are fixed together and should not be separated. After cleaning, carefully refit the outer door panel and replace the side fixing screws.

Ovens

Cleaning is easier if carried out while the oven is still warm. Before cleaning, cover the burner to prevent the burner holes becoming blocked.

The inside of the oven and inner door panel can be cleaned using an approved cleaner (Table 8.1).

Take care not to disturb the oven thermostat temperature sensor at the top of the oven opening (Fig. 8.11).

The enamelled oven burner trim (Fig. 8.12) can be removed for cleaning.

The oven burner trim hooks onto the front of the oven burner bracket. When refitting make sure that the trim is in the middle of the front of the oven burner bracket (Fig. 8.13).

'Cook & Clean' Panels

The ovens have panels which have been coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. This does not stop all marks on the lining, but helps to reduce the amount of manual cleaning needed.

The 'Cook & Clean' panels work better above gas mark 6 (200 °C). If you do most of your cooking below this temperature, occasionally remove the panels and wipe with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water. The panels should then be dried and replaced and the oven heated at gas mark 6 (200 °C) for about one hour. This will make sure that the 'Cook & Clean' panels are working effectively.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - 'Cook & Clean' Panels - 1

DO NOT use steel wool, oven cleaning pads, or any other materials that will scratch the surface.

Removing the Main Oven Linings

Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning.

If you wish to clean the enamel interior of the oven, you will need to remove the shelves before removing the panels. You do not have to remove the support brackets to remove the panels. Lift each lining upward and slide forward off the support brackets (Fig. 8.14).

Once the panels have been removed, the oven enamel interior can be cleaned.

Refit in the reverse order.

The Tall Oven

To clean the oven sides, slide out the shelves. With both hands gently pull the oven shelves support and lift out (Fig. 8.15).

9. Troubleshooting

Hotplate/Cooktop ignition or hotplate burners faulty

Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated?

If not, there maybe something wrong with the power supply.

Are the sparker (ignition electrode) or burner slots blocked by debris? See (Fig. 9.1 and Fig. 9.2).

Are the burner trim and caps correctly located? See the section on 'Cleaning'.

Hotplate/Cooktop burners will not light

Make sure that the burner parts have been replaced correctly after wiping or removing for cleaning.

Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can do this by making sure that other gas appliances you may have are working.

Do the burners spark when you push the button?

If not, verify that the power is on by checking that the clock is illuminated.

Steam is coming from the oven

When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven fries) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille.

Take care when opening the oven door, as there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.

See the 'Cleaning' section for recommended cleaning materials.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - What cleaning materials are recommended for the cooker? - 1

Never use caustic or abrasive cleaners as these will damage the surface.

An oven fan is noisy

The note of the oven fan may change as the oven heats up – this is perfectly normal.

If there is an installation problem and I don't get my original installer to come back to fix it who pays?

You do. Service organizations will charge for their call outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original installer. It is in your interest to track down your original installer.

Power failure

In the event of a failure in the electrical supply, remember to reset the clock to make sure that the timed oven continues to operate.

Food is cooking too slowly, too quickly, or burning

Cooking times may differ from your previous oven.

Check that you are using the recommended temperatures and shelf positions – see the oven cooking guide. The oven control settings and cooking times are intended to be used only as a guide.

Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered either way, to get the results you want.

The oven is not cooking evenly

DO NOT use a baking tray with dimensions larger than those specified in the section on 'General Oven Tips'.

If you are cooking a large item, be prepared to turn it round during cooking.

If two shelves are used, check that space has been left for the heat to circulate. When a baking tray is put into the oven, make sure that it is placed centrally on the shelf.

Check that the door seal is not damaged and that the door catch is adjusted so that the door is held firmly against the seal.

A dish of water when placed on the shelf should be the same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper at the back, then the back of the cooker should be raised up or the front lowered.) If the cooker is not level, arrange for your supplier to level it for you.

Oven not coming on

Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not, there may be something wrong with the power supply.

Is the cooker supply on at the isolator switch?

Has the time of day been set?

The timed oven is not coming on when automatic cooking

Has the oven knob been left in the OFF position by mistake?

Oven temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older

If turning the temperature down using the oven control knob has not worked, or has only worked for a short time, then you may need a new thermostat. This should be fitted by a qualified service person.

Oven light is not working

The bulb has probably burnt out. You can buy a replacement bulb (which is not covered under the warranty) from a good electrical shop. Ask for a 40W - 230V halogen lamp (G9) (Fig. 9.3).

Before removing the existing bulb, turn off the power supply and make sure that the oven and bulb have cooled. Open the oven door and remove the oven shelves.

Remove the bulb cover by turning it a quarter turn, counterclockwise. It may be very stiff (Fig. 9.4).

Pull the existing bulb to remove it. When handling the replacement bulb, avoid touching the glass with your fingers, as oils from your hands can cause premature failure. Push, click in the replacement bulb.

Replace the bulb cover by turning it a quarter turn, clockwise. Turn on the circuit breaker and check that the bulb now lights.

The left-hand oven door is misaligned

The bottom hinge of the left-hand oven door can be adjusted to alter its angle (Fig. 9.5).

Loosen the bottom hinge fixing screws and use the notch and a flat bladed screwdriver to move the position of the hinge to set the hinge position (Fig. 9.6).

Retighten the hinge screws.

NOTE: The tall oven door cannot be adjusted

The fascia gets hot when I use the oven or grill

The cooker is cooled by a fan. If the fascia becomes excessively hot when the cooker is in use then the cooling fan may have failed. Should this occur please contact your installer, a qualified repair engineer or Customer Service to arrange for its repair.

The knobs get hot when I use the oven or the grill. Can I avoid this?

Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven or the grill, and heating them up. DO NOT leave the oven door open.

Make sure that the grill pan is pushed right back to the 'back stop' when grilling.

Always grill with the grill compartment door open.

INSTALLATION

Check the appliance is electrically safe and gas sound when you have finished.

Positioning the Cooker

Fig. 10.1 and Fig. 10.2 show the minimum recommended distance from the cooker to nearby surfaces.

The cooker should not be placed on a base.

Fig. 10.1 and Fig. 10.2 Cookers installed into recess: The cooker must have side clearance ABOVE hob level of 75mm up to a height of 410mm. This can be reduced to 25mm if the surface of the side wall is non-combustible.d metal or ceramic tiles), this can be reduced to 25 mm.

A minimum space of 650 mm is required between the top of the hotplate and a horizontal combustible surface.

*Any cookerhood should be installed in accordance with the hood manufacturer's instructions.

**Any splashback must be fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Allowance should be made for the additional height of the flue trim, which is fitted to the cooker hob.

Surfaces of furniture and walls at the sides and rear of the appliance should be heat, splash and steam resistant. Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to heat damage and discolouration.

We cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by normal use of the cooker to any material that de-laminates or discolours at temperatures less than 65 °C above room temperature.

DO NOT box the cooker in – it must be possible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and servicing.

If the cooker is near a corner of the kitchen a clearance of 130 mm is required to allow the oven doors to open (Fig. 10.3). The actual opening of the doors is slightly less but this allows for some protection of your hand as you open the door.

Moving the Cooker

On no account try and move the cooker while it is plugged into the electricity supply.

The cooker is very heavy, so take great care.

We recommend that two people manoeuvre the cooker. Make sure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed, to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker around.

To help you, there are two levelling rollers at the back, and two screw-down levelling feet at the front.

Remove the polystyrene base pack. From the front, tilt the cooker forward and remove the front half of the polystyrene base (Fig. 10.4). Repeat from the back and remove the rear half of the polystyrene base.

Lowering the Two Rear Rollers

To adjust the height of the rear of the cooker, first fit a 13 mm spanner or socket wrench onto the hexagonal adjusting nut (Fig. 10.5). Rotate the nut – clockwise to raise – counterclockwise to lower.

Make 10 complete (360°) turns clockwise.

Make sure you lower BOTH REAR ROLLERS.

Completing the Move

Unfold the rear edge of the cardboard base tray. Open the grill door and right-hand oven door so that you can get a good grip on the bottom of the fascia panel as you move the oven (Fig. 10.6).

Carefully push the cooker backwards off the cardboard base. Remove the base tray.

Position the cooker close to its final position, leaving just enough space to get behind it.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Completing the Move - 1

Do not use the door handles or control knobs to manoeuvre the cooker.

Fitting the Stability Bracket or Chain

Unless otherwise stated, a cooker using a flexible gas connector must be secured with a suitable stability device.

Suitable stability devices are shown in Fig. 10.7, Fig. 10.8, Fig. 10.9 and Fig. 10.10.

If you are using a stability chain (Fig. 10.7) then the chain should be kept as short as is practicable and fixed firmly to the rear of the cooker.

If you are using a stability bracket; first attach the bracket location device to the rear of the cooker (Fig. 10.8). Then adjust the bracket to engage through the slot of the device (Fig. 10.9 and Fig. 10.10).

Repositioning the Cooker Following Connection

If you need to move the cooker once it has been connected then you need to unplug it and, having gripped under the fascia panel and lifted the front of the cooker slightly (Fig. 10.6), you need to check behind the cooker to make sure that the gas hose is not caught.

As you progress, make sure that both the electricity cable and gas hose always have sufficient slack to allow the cooker to move.

With a stability chain fitted, release it as you ease the cooker out. Do not forget to refit it when you replace the cooker.

When you replace the cooker, again check behind to make sure that the electricity cable and gas hose are not caught or trapped.

INSTALLATION

Check the appliance is electrically safe and gas sound when you have finished.

Levelling

You are recommended to use a spirit level on a shelf in one of the ovens to check for level.

Place the cooker in its intended position taking care not to twist it within the gap between the kitchen units as damage may occur to the cooker or the units.

The front feet and rear rollers can be adjusted to level the cooker.

To adjust the height of the rear of the cooker use the levelling tool supplied to turn the adjusting nuts at the front bottom corners of the cooker. To set the front turn the feet bases to raise or lower.

Fitting the Oven Burner Trim

The oven burner has an enamel burner trim. To fit the trim, simply hook it over the front of the oven burner bracket (Fig. 10.11). Make sure that the burner trim is central to the oven burner bracket.

Gas Connection

This must be in accordance with the relevant standards.

The flexible hose (not supplied with the cooker) must be in accordance with the relevant standards. Hoses may be purchased at most builders' merchants.

The connector is located just below the hotplate level at the rear of the cooker. If in doubt contact your supplier.

The rear cover boxes limit the position of the supply point.

Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted and each connection is different, it is difficult to give precise dimensions.

Although a 900 mm hose can be used, a 1250 mm (maximum) hose will allow slightly more flexibility in the positioning of the bayonet and make moving the cooker easier.

The hose should be fitted so that both inlet and outlet connections are vertical so that the hose hangs downwards in a 'U' shape.

Ideally the hose supply connection should be within the shaded area 'A' (Fig. 10.13).

For Natural Gas, the flexible hose must be in accordance with BS 669. For LP Gas, it should be capable of 50 mbar pressure and a 70 °C temperature rise. If in doubt contact, your supplier. Screw connect the threaded end of the hose into the gas inlet.

After completing the gas connection, make sure that the cooker is gas sound with a pressure test.

The gas pressure can be measured at one of the hotplate burner injectors (not the wok burner).

Lift off a burner head. Fit the pressure gauge to the injector. Turn on and light one of the other hotplate burners.

Turn on the control knob for the burner with the pressure gauge fitted to let gas through.

See the data badge for test pressures.

Turn off the burners. Make sure that you reassemble the burner top in the correct way on the burner body.

Electrical Connection

The cooker must be installed by a qualified electrician, in accordance with all relevant British Standards/Codes of Practice (in particular BS 7671), or with the relevant national and local regulations.

RANGEMASTER Kitchener 100 - Electrical Connection - 1

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

All external wiring must comply with the IEE Regulations for the Electrical Equipment of Buildings. Connection to the electrical supply can be made with either a plug and socket or be permanently wired via a double-pole switch. The cooker is supplied with a 3-core cable 2 m long. If a replacement cable is fitted it must be 250 V high temperature PVC (85 °C), 1 mm ^2 .

Should the plug not fit the socket in your home, it should be removed and replaced with a suitable plug.

Note: If the plug is fitted is not suitable, it must be cut off and disposed of properly. To avoid the risk of electrocution, the plug must not be left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket.

Three pin plugs to BS 1363 with a capacity of not less than 13 A must be used and fitted with a 13 amp fuse 'ASTA' approved to BS 1362.

YOU MUST REFIT THE COVER AFTER REPLACING THE
