VENTILATION

The room containing this cooker should have an air supply in accordance with local regulations.

  • All rooms require an open window, or equivalent and some rooms will require a permanent vent as well.
  • For room areas up to 5 m 2 an air vent of 100 cm 2 is required.
  • For room areas between 5 m 2 and 100 cm 2 an air vent of 50 cm 2 is required.
  • If the room is greater than 5 m 2 and has a door that opens directly to the outside, then no air vent is required.
  • If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room local regulations should be consulted to determine the air vent requirements.

Cooking appliances must always discharge the flue gases into special hoods (fig.1-C), which must be connected to chimneys, flue pipes or have direct access to the outside. If it is not possible to connect a hood, an electric fan can be fitted to a window or a wall (fig.1-E), which must be turned on when the cooker is on, as long as ventilation standards are strictly adhered to.

The manufacturer will not accept responsibility for damages to cabinetry where manufacturer installation guidelines were not adhered to.

CONVERTING THE GAS-SUPPLY TO THE HOB BURNERS

Burners: auxiliary, semi-rapid, rapid, triple crown, griddle burner.

These burners are all fitted with injectors designed to create a primary input of air gauged for each type of gas. This means that the air regulator does not have to be regulated. Proceed as follows in order to convert from one type of gas to another: remove the grids, covers, holed flame diffuser and the burner supports (fig. 7); replace the holed injectors as indicated in 7/C according to the type of gas used (see table 1); put the burner supports, flame diffusers, covers and grids back in position; regulate the minimum output following the instructions in paragraph 1.7.

REGULATING THE MINIMUM OUTPUT OF THE HOB BURNERS

Normal/valve taps:

Ignite the burners and turn the knob to the maximum position. Remove the knob and insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the rod or through the holes on the side of the control panel, in accordance with the type (fig. 8 A/B). Loosen the by-pass screw by two turns in an anti-clockwise direction and rotate the rod to the minimum position. Adjust the previously loosened screws until the flame is lowered but stable, even when rapid changes are made from the maximum to the minimum position with the burner cold. If safety taps are fitted, let the burner run on minimum for a few minutes to ensure that the device does not cut in. If it does, increase the minimum.

N.B. For liquid gas settings, the burner minimum must be set by fully tightening the tap by-passes.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - To cancel a program: - 1

NOTE:

On oven start up or possibly at other times, due to electricity supply deviations – the programmer may freeze on a function – if this occurs we recommend that, after checking other solutions without success, it is recommended that power supply be disconnected to the appliance and allow it to be in this position for some minutes before reconnecting. This may have a result of clearing the frozen position allowing you to reset the programmer for normal operation.

Cooling Fan

The range is provided with a cooling fan motor to reduce the heat around the oven. The fan motor is controlled by a sensor, which will start when the temperature achieves the level pre-fixed and stop working when the temperature is reduced accordingly.

This safeguards both the range and the adjoining cupboards from the possibility of temperature damage.

Safety Thermostat

Your range is fitted with an over temperature sensor that will automatically shut down your oven for a period if it is deemed to be overheating- this sensor is fitted to the rear wall of the oven, inside the outer case – it will only activate in extreme circumstances and is provided as protection to the appliance and the adjoining furnishings. If activated it will shut down the appliance for a short time and will automatically reset allowing normal operations – you should consult your service technician if the problem re-occurs.

H - Gas Cooktop Functions

Automatic start-up with valves

Turn the corresponding knob anticlockwise up to the maximum position and press the knob. Once the burner has been started up, keep the knob pressed for about 6 seconds.

Using the burners

In order to obtain the maximum yield without wasting gas, it is important that the diameter of the pot is suitable for the burner potential (see the following table and fig.1). This is to avoid the flame extremities being larger than the base of the pot. All of the operating positions must be chosen between the maximum and the minimum ones, never between the minimum position and the closing point.

The gas supply can be interrupted by turning the knob clockwise up to the closing position.

NOTE:

If there is no power supply, it is possible to light the burners with matches, setting the knob to the startup

point (large flame, fig. 1).

Wok 17.91700024 - 26 cm

NOTE:

When the equipment is switched off, always check that the knobs are in the closing position. If the flame should blow out accidentally, the safety valve will automatically stop the gas supply, after a few seconds. To restore operation, set the knob to the lighting point and press. While cooking with fat or oil, pay the utmost attention as these substances can catch fire when overheated.

Preheating the oven is not essential, but you will achieve better results if you do. Some foods, particularly cakes and pastry, are better cooked in a preheated oven. Other foods, for example casseroles, cook just as well when cooked in a non-preheated oven but may need longer cooking times.

For faster preheating select pizza mode and the required temperature and once the oven has reached the required level change to cooking mode/function for the task.

To preheat the oven:

1- Set the mode required for preheating.

2- Set the oven to the desired temperature

NOTE:

Any food or other cooking utensils placed in the oven during preheating will affect the preheating time. The preheat time may also vary with installations.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - NOTE: - 1

WARNING

When using an alternative cooking mode for fast preheat, be sure to turn the cooking mode to your required setting before placing food in the oven.

HINT:

To allow for heat loss while placing food into the oven, preheat the oven 10-20°C higher and then reduce the temperature to your required cooking temperature.

Always preheat the oven when cooking multiple dishes at the same time.

DEFROST

This function activates the fan, to allow controlled and hygienic defrosting. no heat is required, (in case you want to speed up the operation, you can set the thermostat knob to 50°C)

As a general guide, the defrosting time for meat is approximately 15-20 minutes per kilogram.

All foods may be defrosted using the Fan Forced Convection mode. It is important to note that NO temperature (0 Degrees) is selected when using this function.

As a general guide, the defrosting time for meat is approximately 15-20 minutes per kilogram.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - DEFROST - 1

PIZZA

In this position the fan and fan element together with the under oven element are engaged simultaneously. This is used for food that requires a concentration of cooking to the base, and allows the top to gently cook at the same time.

For best results for pizza and similar items we recommend this function and may be combined with our optional pizza stone for perfect outcome

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - PIZZA - 1

CONVENTIONAL OVEN

In this traditional mode, oven heat is provided from the top and under the oven compartment and is most suitable when cooking on a single shelf. For best results, arrange the shelves so the top of the food is near the centre of the oven.

If cooking on more than one shelf, always preheat the oven and position the pans to allow as much free circulation of heat as possible.

Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray position during cooking.

1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select Conventional Oven mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.

HINT:

If water is used in your cooking (such as water placed in a baking dish) the water will evaporate in the oven in the form of steam. The level of condensation will be reduced when cooking in fan oven mode where excess moisture is circulated and evaporates during the cooking cycle.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - HINT: - 1

NOTE:

Stand clear of the oven when opening the oven door as steam may escape rapid

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - NOTE: - 1

FAN ASSIST

This style of cooking provides traditional cooking heating from top and bottom elements with the assistance of a circulation fan to ensure fast even results. This mode is most suitable for delicate cooking such as cakes, pastries, gateaux, biscuits and yeast dough. Best results when thermostat is set to 150-180 degrees – depending on recipe.

This function is also excellent as the fastest oven pre heat, engaging maximum power to heat the oven to a selected temperature before selecting an appropriate function and temperature for a task.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - FAN ASSIST - 1

CLASSIC BAKE (bottom of double oven)

In this mode, oven heat is provided from under the oven compartment. This is most suitable for cooking food which requires a well cooked base or where minimal browning is required.

1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select CLASSIC BAKE.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - CLASSIC BAKE (bottom of double oven) - 1

HIGH BAKE

The HIGH BAKE mode uses the oven fan to circulate air with heat from the under oven element. Quick and consistent heat is evenly distributed throughout the oven.

The results are quick, not unlike a microwave oven. With the circulation of heat, foods cooked with high bake mode retain a crisp, dry texture on the outside especially pizza, pastry and other foods where you want the base to be well cooked. HIGH BAKE is also excellent for re-heating.

1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select HIGH BAKE mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - HIGH BAKE - 1

FAN FORCED CONVECTION – most commonly used function

In this mode the oven fan circulates heat from behind the fan cover to give a more even temperature throughout the oven. The even heat provides similar cooking results for each portion of food. Although temperatures for cooking foods in this type of oven are generally the same as required by a conventional oven, when cooking foods that require lengthy cooking cycles a fan forced oven normally cooks more quickly, saving time and energy.

Always place the food as near to the centre of the oven as possible. If cooking on more than one level, arrange the pan positions to allow for free circulation of heat.

1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select FAN OVEN mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When the cooking is complete turn the oven off.

HINT:

Always preheat the oven when cooking on multiple shelves at the same time. Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray positions during cooking.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - HINT: - 1

NOTE: Door must be closed in Fan Grill Mode

Fan grilling is a combination of direct heat and circulated hot air which gives the appearance and flavor similar to rotisserie cooking which is ideal for single level roasts. Direct infrared heat from the grill element is circulated by the fan to cook the food, which should be positioned as near to the centre of the oven as possible.

For best cooking results, it is recommended that food be turned once only.

1- Oven door must be closed in Fan grill mode.
2- Place food on grill rack and pan supplied (ensure grill rack is inverted to the high position to allow best circulation of air) as close to the centre of the oven as possible.
3- Select FAN GRILL mode.
4- Set the oven to the desired temperature. (see note below and refer to FAN GRILL temperature guide).
5- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - NOTE: Door must be closed in Fan Grill Mode - 1

NOTE:

Large grill pans or roasting dishes can restrict the circulation of air in the oven. To prevent moisture condensing in the cooler lower sections of the oven, preheat the oven for approximately 10 minutes, using CONVENTIONAL OVEN or HIGH BAKE modes, prior to fan grilling.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - NOTE: - 1

NOTE: The temperature setting in FAN GRILL mode must not exceed 200°C. The grill ent has a safety shutdown at approximately 200°C.

ALF GRILL

This mode of cooking uses infrared heat from the top of the oven to cook foods to your requirements. Half grill engages only the inner band of the top element and is suitable for smaller volumes and has a consequently lower energy usage.

This method of grilling in the oven is recommended for short duration (5 minutes or less) grilling only, which is ideal for toasting (see note below). Foods with higher fat content or foods, which require more than 5 minutes grilling time, should be grilled using the FAN GRILL mode.

When in GRILL mode the oven door should be opened.

1- Commence grilling from a hot oven whenever possible.
2- Place food on grill rack and pan supplied.
3- Position the shelf to your preference.
4- Select GRILL mode and, turn to your desired heat setting.
5- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.

NOTE:

The grill element is controlled by the oven thermostat. Once the temperature in the oven has reached the selected temperature the element will switch off, and then on again, when more heat is required.

N - Cleaning and Maintenance

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - N - Cleaning and Maintenance - 1

1. Cleaning and maintenance

Proper cleaning and care of your appliance is essential to maintain its appearance and durability.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - Cleaning and maintenance - 1

NOTE:

People with sensitivity to cleaning chemicals must take the necessary precautions. It is recommended that protective gloves be worn while cleaning the appliance. Routine cleaning of the appliance should only be performed when the appliance is at room temperature.

Do not use any acid or caustic cleaners, abrasive powders or scourers on the interior or exterior of the appliance. Substances or items with these properties may discolor or damage the finishes of your appliance. If any abrasive, acidic or caustic substance or cleaning agent should come into contact with the appliance, rinse off immediately with water, taking special care to avoid injury if surfaces are hot.

When using the appliance, it may be soiled by food spills and spatters or foreign items such as plastics accidentally coming into contact with warm or hot surfaces. Foods which contain acidic substances or sugar can discolor or damage enamel finishes.

The enamel interior of the oven is a hard durable finish which is resistant to wear and discoloration. However, to maintain the appearance and durability of the finish any spills must be wiped off immediately. This should be done even if still hot and necessary precaution must be taken to avoid injury. Once cool the affected area should be thoroughly cleaned and rinsed using non-abrasive, mild cleaning detergents and water.

2. Care for stainless steel

No metal is indestructible and certain procedures should be followed to maintain the finish and durability of stainless steel.

Never leave stainless steel items unwashed. The surface responds best to gentle cleaning methods, scouring materials and harsh abrasives should not be used. Frequent washing with water (preferably hot) is the recommended treatment, followed by rinsing with fresh clean water and wiping dry with a soft cloth or paper towel.

A little soap or detergent may be added to the washing water but too much can produce a cloudy film over the appliance. Use of steel wool is not recommended but stainless steel wool (a fine mesh pad) is an excellent cleaning aid. Oil or grease in the washing water can leave a rainbow film when it dries. It can easily be removed by simply using polishing and cleaning methods described previously. Thoroughly rinsing with clean water is the real secret and it surprising how easily stainless steel can be kept sparkling clean by using the above simple method.

Never leave stainless steel to dry by itself.

3. Only place cookware on oven shelves.

Other surfaces such as trims are not totally resistant to hard materials or direct heat and may be permanently damaged by such use.

Mild detergents and warm water together with a clean, soft, non-abrasive cloth achieve goods results for normal cleaning. Diluted washes with ammonia and water should rinse away any adhesive residue or gummy deposits on the appliance surfaces. Eucalyptus oil (small amounts) is also good for removing adhesive residue. Alcohol based products (eg: methylated spirit, etc.) are not recommended. Brand name cream cleansers and concentrates, without abrasive qualities, can be used in small amounts to break down greasy deposits and dirt. After cleaning make sure cleaned surfaces are thoroughly rinsed to prevent any risk of baked on cleaner residues and wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - Recommended cleaners - 1

NOTE:

When cleaning stainless steel surfaces Porter&Charles recommend 3M brand or stainless steel cleaner. Other reputable brand cleaners specifically formulated for cleaning stainless steel may also be acceptable. Do not use steel soap pads or abrasive scourers of any kind. The abrasive qualities of these pads will ruin the even brushed finish of the stainless steel and any residual metal fibers may corrode causing a rusty/dull appearance. Metal polishes with abrasive qualities are also not recommended.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - NOTE: - 1

WARNING:

Do not use any acid or caustic cleansers or 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.

Two safety symbols: a hand holding a bottle crossed out by a cross and a battery with a weight, both crossed out by a second symbol.

Routine cleaning

Ensure all controls are in the off position and the appliance is cool before cleaning. When wiping stainless steel surfaces with a brushed finish, wipe in the same directions as the brushing.

To clean the oven interior, fully open (side opening door/s) or remove the door/s (top opening type, see opposite page) for better access while cleaning. The shelves and shelf guides can be lifted out for cleaning by removing the relevant thumb screws. The shelves and shelf guides can be washed manually but are also dishwasher safe.

If using commercial oven cleaners, choose only non-caustic cleaners and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid contact with elements, rubber door seals and exterior surfaces.

After cleaning make sure all surfaces are thoroughly rinsed and wiped dry with a clean, soft cloth.

Porter & Charles FEG90B3 - Routine cleaning - 1

DO NOT USE A PORTABLE STEAM CLEANER TO CLEAN THE OVEN.

Self Cleaning Panels

The range is equipped with 3 panels (2 sides and rear). They are attached to the sides by removing the rack guides assembly and placing the self cleaning panels against the oven side. The rear panel is attached with screws, ensure that the «rough» side is facing out. These liners are «self cleaning» during the cooking. If residue remains on them after cooking, empty the oven of food, and remove all shelves and pan, and turn the selector to Conventional oven (top and bottom element) and thermostat to MAX; 15-20 minutes should be adequate to clean the panels using this method.

How the Self cleaning panels work.

The self-cleaning oven panels go through a special enamelling process which ultimately creates a rough surface (this is the side which should face outwards in the oven). Because of the structure of the surface, it is extremely porous and attracts oxygen. When the splashes of grease hit this surface it immediately spreads. In this way, immediate oxidization of the grease occurs, and it ultimately disappears while the oven is in general use at standard cooking temperatures. The self cleaning panels are located on the sides and on the rear of the oven, and are designed to cope with fatty stains very efficiently. For stains on the bottom of the oven, the usual causes are sugar or starch overflows.

The self cleaning panels are manufactured using a special enamelling process

The base of the oven should cleaned by using soapy water (see procedure to page 15-16) on a soft clean and newspaper

BEWARE: Never use silicone films (polish or cleaners) on self-cleaning panels - they will be rendered useless. Similarly, NEVER try to wash with detergent, or use abrasive cleaners on the panels

Removing oven door (pull down door models only)

The oven door can be easily removed for better access while cleaning. To remove the oven door:

  1. Open the door fully and fit the supplied pin in the hole.

  2. Raise the door slightly, holding the sides of the door about half way up. Make sure the pin stays in the hole the whole time. Lift the door gently. This should disconnect the hinges from the oven frame.

  3. Remove the door by continuing to raise it while pulling the door away from the oven. When handling the door be careful not to dislodge the pin off the hole. If the pin does dislodge, the hinge will have to be closed by hand and the pin re-fitted onto the hole before re-fitting into the oven.

To re-fit the oven door:

i. Holding the door at an angle to the oven, slide the hinges into the oven frame, making sure that on each side the top curved arm fits into the top slot and the lower arm fits into the bottom slot.

ii. Make sure the hinges are pushed as far as they will go and the lower arm engages into the plate mounted in the oven frame.

iii. Open the door fully and ensure the pin fully disengages from the hole. The door can now be opened and as normal.
