Frequently Asked Questions - 1092 Continental De Luxe FALCON

How do I light the hotplate burners?

Push in and turn the control knob to the large flame symbol. The spark ignition will light the gas. Keep the knob pressed for a few seconds until the flame safety device holds the gas flow. If the flame goes out when releasing the knob, turn off, wait one minute, then try again holding the knob longer.

What should I do if a burner flame goes out unexpectedly?

Immediately turn the control knob to the off position. Do not attempt to relight immediately. Wait at least one minute to allow gas to disperse before trying to light the burner again. If the problem persists, check that the burner cap and head are correctly fitted and that the ports are not blocked.

How do I use the wok ring?

Place the wok ring on the centre burner pan supports, ensuring the cut-outs sit on the burner supports. Use only with a round-bottomed wok for proper heat transfer. The ring gets very hot; allow it to cool before handling.

How do I clean the oven liners?

The oven liners are coated with Cook & Clean enamel that self-cleans at temperatures above 200°C. For stubborn stains, remove the liners by unscrewing the fixing screws, wash with hot soapy water, dry, and replace. Heat the oven at 200°C for one hour to reactivate the self-cleaning property.

Why is steam coming from the oven during cooking?

Steam is normal when cooking foods with high water content, such as oven chips. It may be visible at the rear grille. When opening the oven door, stand back to avoid steam burns. This is not a fault.

How can I adjust the oven temperature if food is cooking too quickly or slowly?

Individual cooking preferences may require temperature adjustments. Try increasing or decreasing the oven temperature by 10°C. For fan oven functions, recommended temperatures are generally lower than for conventional ovens. Refer to your recipe and adjust accordingly.

What are the functions of the left multi-function oven?

The left oven offers seven functions: Defrost (cold air circulation), Fan Oven (even heat for multiple shelves), Fanned Grilling (top element with fan), Fan Assisted (fan with top and bottom heat), Conventional (top and bottom heat), Browning (top element only), and Base Heat (bottom element only). Use the function selector knob accordingly.

How do I remove and refit the storage drawer?

Pull the drawer fully forward. Lift the plastic clips on each side to release the catches, then pull the drawer away from the side runners. To refit, pull the side rails out completely, place the drawer on the rails, and push the rails forward until the clips click into place.

Can I convert the cooker to use LP gas (propane/butane)?

Yes, the cooker is supplied with an LP gas conversion kit. The conversion must be performed by a competent person. It involves replacing the burner injectors, bypass screws, and for the centre burner, the burner ring. Follow the instructions in the manual and attach the conversion sticker to the data badge.

What are the minimum pan sizes for the hotplate?

For the outer burners, use a pan with a minimum diameter of 120 mm (4¾ inches). For the centre burner, use a pan with a minimum diameter of 160 mm (6⅜ inches). Using smaller pans may cause unstable cooking and poor flame contact.

Be safe

You need clean fresh air - so does your cooker. Burner fl ames produce exhaust gases, heat and moisture. Make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a powered cooker hood that vents outside. If you have several burners on or use the cooker for a long time, open a window or turn on an extractor fan. For more detail see the Installation Instructions.

We recommend you read the "General Safety Instructions" section if you have not used a gas cooker before.

We describe some basic guidelines on how to use a gas cooker safely.

Gas and Electricity on

Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the cooker is wired in and switched on. The cooker needs electricity.

Peculiar smells

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

Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 240°C and run for an hour.

Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on a cooker hood, for example.

Hotplate Burners

The drawing below each knob indicates which burner that knob controls. There is a spark ignition system that works when the knob is pressed in.

Each burner also has a special safety device that stops the flow of gas if the flame goes out.

Push in and turn a knob to the large flame symbol ↗).

Illustration of a hand pressing down on a circular mechanical component with a droplet symbol (no text or labels)

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

If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner goes out, the safety device has not held in. Turn the control to the off position and wait one minute, then try again this time holding in the control knob for slightly longer.

Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the knob.

Simple diagram of a circular object with internal components and droplets, enclosed in an oval frame (no text or symbols)

On this cooker the low position is beyond high, not between high and off. The small flame marks the 'low position'. Turn the knob towards it after the contents of a pan have boiled.

Illustration of two cooking pots on a stove with steam rising (no text or symbols)

Make sure flames are under the pans. Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly.

Illustration of a cooking pot with a prohibition symbol above it, no text or labels present

Pans and kettles with concave bases or down turned base rims should not be used.

Simple line drawing of a printer with a blank screen and a cross mark, no text or symbols present

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

Simple line drawing of a bowl on a pedestal with a cross mark, no text or symbols present

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.

Minimum pan sizes

The minimum pan diameter recommended is 120mm (about 43/4") for the outer burners and 160mm (about 63/8") for the centre burner.

When hotplate control knob is pressed in, sparks will be made at every burner, this is normal.

If after lighting, a hotplate burner's flame goes out, turn it off and leave it for one minute before relighting it.

You can remove the burner head for cleaning; see 'Cleaning your cooker'.

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

Note:

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 a metal cleaner such as 'Brasso'.

English

Wok Centre Ring

The Wok ring is designed fi t the centre burner. It will not fi t any of the other burner pan supports

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with flanges and central hub (no text or symbols)

It should be located so that the cut-outs in the ring sit directly on the projecting burner supports.

Woks vary very widely in size and shape. It's important that the Wok is securely held - but if the Wok is too big or too small the ring will not support it properly.

In order for the Wok to heat properly it must be close to the burner. For this reason we don't recommend that you use the Wok ring with a fl at bottomed wok.

When you fit the ring, check that it is properly located on the pan support fingers.

Make sure that it is stable and that the Wok is sitting level in the ring.

Illustration of a hand pressing down on a mechanical component with arrows indicating motion (no text or symbols)

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

Wok Cooking

A Wok may be used for 5 traditional methods of oriental cooking: -

■ Stir Frying
■ Shallow Frying
Deep Frying
■ Steaming
Braising

Stir frying has become the most familiar and popular method of oriental cooking. The continual manual process requires the addition of one food item at a time with the relatively fast preparation time off ering the benefit of colour and nutrient retention whilst retaining a crisp texture.

The other 4 types of Wok cooking do not require constant stirring. These methods require a steadier base for the utensil as the Wok contains very hot water or oil. The Wok ring gives greater stability when practising these methods of cooking - but take care.

The Ovens

During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.

Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odours turn the ovens to 230°C and run for an hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on a cooker hood, for example

The Left Hand Oven The Right Hand Oven

Diagram of a door opening and inside a storage cabinet with internal compartments (no text or symbols)

The left hand oven is a Multi-function oven. As well as the oven fan and fan element, it is fitted with two extra heating elements, one visible in the top of the oven and the second under the oven base. Take care to avoid touching the top element and element deflector when placing or removing items from the oven. For more detail on this oven see the section 'Multi-function oven'.

Multi-function oven functions

The Multi-function oven has many varied uses. We suggest you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar with each function. Remember - not all functions will be suitable for all food types.

Defrost

This function operates the fan to circulate cold air only. No heat is applied. This enables small items such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.

Defrosting in this way speeds up the process and protects the food from flies. Pieces of meat, fi sh and poultry should be placed on a rack, over a tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the rack and tray after defrosting.

Defrost with the oven door closed.

Large items, such as whole chickens and joints should not be defrosted in this way. We recommend this be carried out in a refrigerator.

Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm oven or when an adjoining oven is in use or still warm.

Ensure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are completely defrosted before cooking.

Fan oven

This function operates the fan and the heating element around it. An even heat is produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts quickly.

Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for baking on several shelves at one time and is a good 'all-round' function. It may be necessary to reduce the temperature by approximately 10° C for recipes previously cooked in a conventional oven.

If you wish to pre-heat the oven, wait until the indicator light has gone out before inserting the food.

Fanned grilling in the oven

This function operates the fan whilst the top element is on. It produces a more even, less fi erce heat than a conventional grill. For best results, place the food to be grilled, on the grid in the deluxe oven shelf. Thick pieces of meat or fi sh are ideal for grilling in this way, as the circulated air reduces the fi erceness of the heat from the grill. The oven door should be kept closed whilst grilling is in progress, so saving energy. You will also fi nd that the food needs to be watched and turned less than

for normal grilling. Pre-heat this function before cooking.

Fan assisted oven

This function operates the fan, circulating air heated by the elements at the top and the base of the oven. The combination of fan and conventional cooking (top and base heat) makes this function ideal for cooking large items that need thorough cooking, such as a large meat roast. It is also possible to bake on two shelves at one time, although they will need to be swapped over during the cooking time, as the heat at the top of the oven is greater than at the base, when using this function.

This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an eye on the food cooking until you have become accustomed to this function.

Conventional oven (top and base heat)

This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. Food cooked on the top shelf will brown and crisp faster than on the lower shelf, because the heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the base, as in 'Fan assisted oven' function. Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around for even cooking. This means that foods requiring different temperatures can be cooked together, using the cooler zone in the lower half of the oven and hotter area to the top.

Browning element

This function uses the element in the top of the oven only. It is a useful function for the browning or fi nishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce and lasagne, the item to be browned being already hot before switching to the top element.

Base heat

This function uses the base element only. It will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or fi nish off cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower shelf. It is also a gentle heat, good for slow cooking of casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate warming.

The Browning and Base heat functions are useful additions to your oven, giving you fl exibility to fi nish off items to perfection. With use, you will soon realise how these functions can combine to extend your cooking skills.

The Right Hand Oven

The fan in the right hand oven circulates hot air continuously, which means faster more even cooking.

The recommended cooking temperatures for a fanned oven are generally lower than a non-fanned oven.

Both Ovens

Before using for the first time, to dispel manufacturing odours turn the ovens to 230° C and run for an hour. To clear the smell make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air, by opening windows or turning on a cooker hood, for example.

Please remember that all cookers vary - temperatures in your new Falcon ovens may differ to those in your previous cooker.

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

Baking trays meat tins etcetera should be placed level centrally on the oven's wire shelves. Keep all trays and containers away from the sides of the oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.

For even browning, the maximum recommended size of a baking tray is 340mm by 340mm.

Cooking high moisture content foods can create a 'steam burst', when the oven door is opened. When opening the oven stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.

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

Line drawing of a hand holding a knife to cut a cabinet with a smoke cover (no text or symbols)

Always leave a 'fi ngers width' between dishes on the same shelf; this allows the heat to circulate freely around them.

The Cook & Clean oven liners (see Cleaning your cooker) work better when fat splashes are avoided. Cover meat when cooking.

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

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

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

Steam

When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the grille at the rear of the hotplate. This is perfectly normal.

Oven shelves

The cooker is supplied with a deluxe oven tray.

The deluxe oven tray has a support grid or trivet so that it can be used for grilling as well as normal oven cooking.

Each oven is also supplied with two different shelves.

The drop shelf increases the possibilities for oven shelf spacing.

The deluxe tray slides in and out easily - take care when pulling it forward that it does not become unstable or slide out of the grooves in the side of the oven.

The other oven shelves have an end stop and so cannot be accidental pulled out; but they can be easily removed and refi tted.

English

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

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.

To refi t 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.

Storage

The bottom drawer is for storing oven trays and other cooking utensils.

It can get very warm so don't store anything in it that may melt or catch fi re.

The drawer can be removed completely for cleaning etc.

To remove the drawer

Pull the drawer forward. Lift up the ends of the plastic clips (one each side) to release the catches holding the drawer to the side runners and at the same time pull the drawer forward and away from the side runners.

English

Cleaning your cooker

Before thorough cleaning, isolate from the electricity supply. Remember to switch on the electricity supply before use.

Never use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt. Don't mix different cleaning products - they may react together with hazardous results. Do not use a steam cleaner on your cooker

If you want to move your cooker for cleaning, see the section called 'Moving your cooker'.

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

Stainless Steel Hob

Lift away pots or pans from hob. Remove pan supports from spillage area and carefully place in a sink of warm soapy water. Wipe loose debris from hob.

Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream cleaners, e.g. Cif, on brushed Stainless Steel surfaces. For best results use a liquid detergent e.g. Domestos Multi Surface Cleaner.

Rinse with cold water and thoroughly dry with a clean, soft cloth. Ensure all parts are dry before repositioning.

Hotplate burners

The large aluminium alloy rings around the burners will require regular cleaning to maintain a good condition, preferably after each use and whilst they are still warm.

Diagram of a circular object on a base with a black arrow pointing to it, no text or symbols present.

Should these rings become marked please use the following cleaning method:

1. Remove food deposits gently using a soft damp cloth and Astonish or Cif Cream Cleaner
2. Rinse with a clean soft cloth and dry.

Be careful not to disturb the ignition electrode or hotplate burner safety device probe.

The burner heads and caps can be removed for cleaning. Make sure they are absolutely dry before replacing.

When fi tting burner head, ensure this locates properly within the base.

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

Control Panel and Oven Doors

For best results liquid detergents should be used.

The control panel and control knobs should only be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water - but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance. Wipe with a clean dampened cloth then polish with a dry cloth. The oven doors should only be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water.

Cleaning Brass Components

Uncoated natural brass is used as part of the authentic fi nish and may tarnish with age.

To regain a polished fi nish, these areas should be cleaned using a proprietary cleaner such as Brasso. Stubborn marks on the aluminium burner rings can be removed using a similar cleaning material. This will also restore the polished fi nish.

English

The Ovens

To avoid damage to the interior enamel, DO NOT line the base of the oven with aluminium cooking foil.

The ovens have panels that 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 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 200°C for about one hour. This will ensure the Cook & Clean panels are working eff ectively.

Don't use steel wool (Brillo), scourers or any other materials that will scratch the surface. Don't use oven cleaning pads.

Removing the Oven Linings

Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning and for cleaning behind. Remove the shelves fi rst.

On some models the right hand fanned oven has a removable oven roof - if fitted slide the roof liner forward and remove.

Line drawing of a mechanical assembly with a labeled 'FRONT' on a base plate (no other text or symbols)

The side panels of either oven can be removed. Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing screws. You don't have to remove the screws to remove the oven linings. Lift each side panel upwards and they will slide off the screws. Then pull them forwards.

Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel interior can be cleaned.

When replacing the linings fi t the side linings fi rst.

Moving your cooker

Switch off the electricity supply.

The cooker is heavy; two people may be required to move it.

The cooker is fitted with one roller at the front and two at the back. There are also two screws down levelling feet at the front.

The front roller, designed for moving the cooker, can be wound down. The levelling tool that controls this roller should be in the storage drawer compartment. If you cannot find the levelling tool, contact your installer. See the start of the 'Installation' section of these instructions where they should have entered their details.

To remove the drawer

Pull the drawer forward. Lift up the ends of the plastic clips (one each side) to release the catches holding the drawer to the side runners and at the same time pull the drawer forward and away from the side runners.

For safety's sake push the drawer runners back out of the way.

A left rear roller, B right rear roller, C centre roller Locate the Allen key tool as shown.

Turn the levelling tool clockwise, two full (180°) turns. It will be stiff. The front of the oven will rise slightly as the roller drops down.

Open both the oven doors so that you can get a good grip on the bottom of the fascia panel as you move the oven.

Do not move the oven by pulling the handrail, door handles or knobs.

Move the oven a bit at a time, checking behind it to make sure the gas hose is not caught. Make sure both electricity and gas cables have sufficient slack to move the cooker forward as you go along.

If a stability chain is fitted, release it as you ease the cooker out.

When you replace the cooker, wind it down off the rollers by turning the levelling tool anti-clockwise. This is important. It will stop the cooker moving accidentally, while in use.

To refit the draw

To replace the drawer in the cooker, pull the side rails fully out.

Troubleshooting

Steam is coming from the oven

When cooking foods with a high water content (e.g. oven chips) 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.

The oven fan is noisy

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

The knobs get hot when I use the oven, can I avoid this?

Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven, and heating them up. Don't leave the oven door open.

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 organisations will charge for their call outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original installer. It's in your interest to track down your original installer.

Current Operated Earth Leakage Breakers

Where the cooker installation is protected by a 30-milliamp sensitivity residual current device (RCD), the combined use of your cooker and other domestic appliances may occasionally cause nuisance tripping. In these instances the cooker circuit may need to be protected by fi tting 100mA device. This work should be carried out by a qualifi ed electrician.

Food is cooking too slowly, too quickly, or burning

Cooking times may differ from your previous oven. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered either way, to get the results you want. Try cooking at a different temperature setting.

The oven is not cooking evenly

Do not use a tin or baking tray larger than 340mm x 340mm.

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 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 temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older

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

Hotplate ignition or hotplate burners faulty

Is the power on?

Are the sparker (ignition electrode) or burner slots blocked by debris?

Are the burner caps correctly located?

Hotplate burners will not light

If only one or all the hotplate burners will not light, make sure that the 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 in the control knob? If not, check the power is on.

In the UK:-

The hotplate must be installed by a CORGI registered engineer.

In the Republic of Ireland:-

The installation must be carried out by a Competent Person.

The installation must be in accordance with the installation instructions and comply with the relevant regulations and also the local gas and electricity supply companies' requirements

If you smell gas

Don't turn electric switches on or off.

Don't smoke

Don't use naked flames

Do turn off the gas at the meter or cylinder

Do open doors and windows to get rid of the gas

Call your gas supplier.

This appliance is designed for domestic cooking only. Use for any other purpose could invalidate any warranty or liability claim.

The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is used. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device, (mechanical extractor hood).

Prolonged intensive use may call for additional ventilation, for example opening a window. Use extractor fans or hoods when fitted.

The cooker should be serviced by a qualified service engineer and only approved spare parts used. Have the installer show you the location of the cooker control switch. Mark it for easy reference. Always allow the cooker to cool and then switch off at the mains and before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work, unless specified otherwise in this guide.

All parts of the cooker become hot with use and will retain heat even after you have stopped cooking.

Take care when touching cooker, to minimize the possibility of burns, always be certain that the controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool before attempting to clean the cooker.

Use dry oven gloves when applicable - using damp gloves might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface. Never operate the cooker with wet hands.

Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a glove. They might catch fire if they touch a hot surface.

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 cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Do not use unstable saucepans and position the handles away from the edge of the hotplate.

Babies, toddlers and young children should not be allowed near the cooker at any time. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance. Teach them not to play with controls or any other part of the cooker.

Never store anything of interest to children in cabinets above a cooker - children climbing on the cooker to reach them could be seriously injured.

Clean only parts listed in this guide.

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.

Always keep combustible wall coverings or curtains etc. a safe distance away from your cooker.

Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the cooker while it is in on.

Do not store or use combustible materials, or fl ammable liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.

Do not use water on grease fi res. Never pick up a fl aming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a fl aming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well fi tting lid or baking tray. If available use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fi re extinguisher.

Never leave the hotplate unattended at high heat settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking and greasy spills may catch on fi re.

English

Never wear loose-fitting or hanging clothes while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets over the hotplate. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with a hot surface unit and may cause severe burns.

Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they will ignite if they get too hot.

Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.

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. 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. Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

Do not use the top of the fl ue (the slot along the back of the cooker) for warming plates, dishes, drying tea towels or softening butter.

When using an electrical appliance near the hotplate, be sure that the cord of the appliance does not come into contact with the hotplate.

Take care that no water seeps into the appliance

Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for hotplate cooking; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on any part of the cooker.

Do not use aluminium foil to cover shelves, linings or the oven roof.

To avoid damage to the interior enamel, do not place the oven pan or baking trays on the bottom of the oven and do not line the base of the oven with aluminium cooking foil.

Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make container burst and cause injury.

The cooker is designed for cooking foods only and must not be used for any other purpose.

The oven should NOT be used for heating the kitchen. This wastes fuel and the control knobs may become overheated.

When the oven is on DO NOT leave the oven door open for longer than necessary.

The specification of this cooker should not be altered.

This appliance is heavy, take care when moving it.

When the cooker is not in use ensure that the control knobs are in the off position.

SERVICING - WARNING

Disconnect from electricity and gas before servicing. Check appliance is safe when you have finished.

The inlet connection on the cooker is ISO 7-1 internal. If you require a ISO 228-1 connection find the ISO 7-1 to ISO 228-1 connector in the conversion kit. Apply a suitable thread sealing compound to the ISO 7-1 end.

Screw the connector into the cooker inlet until it is finger tight. Using two suitable tools, one on the inlet on the cooker to make sure it is held steady and one on the connector, tighten the connector into the inlet on the cooker.

Minimum torque 15Nm.

Maximum torque 20Nm

Connect the hose to the connector.

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

For the UK

For Natural Gas the fl exible hose must be in accordance with B.S.669.

For LP Gas it should be capable of 50mbar pressure, 70C temperature rise and carry a red stripe, band or label.

If in doubt contact, your supplier.

Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted and each connection is different it is difficult to give precise dimensions. Ideally the house supply connection should be in the shaded area shown in the figure showing the back of the cooker ('A' in the figure). Alternatively connect from the side.

After completing the gas connection, check the cooker is gas sound with a pressure test. When checking for gas leaks do not use washing up liquid - this can corrode. Use a product specifically manufactured for leak detection.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS

Pressure testing

The gas pressure can be measured at the pressure test point on the gas connection block. Turn and light one of the hotplate burners.

For Natural Gas the pressure should be 20mbar.

For Propane the pressure should be 37mbar
