Frequently Asked Questions - LGV65 LEISURE

What type of gas can be used with the Leisure LGV65 cooker?

The cooker can operate on Natural Gas (G20) or LPG (G30/G31) after proper conversion. The injectors for both types are supplied with the appliance. Refer to the installation guide for conversion instructions.

How do I clean the ceramic hob or gas burner caps?

For gas hob: Remove burner caps and grates, wash with warm soapy water, dry thoroughly before replacing. For spillages on the hob surface, use a soft cloth and non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using steel wool or harsh chemicals.

Can I use aluminum foil in the oven?

It is not recommended to line the oven floor or shelves with aluminum foil as it can trap heat and damage the enamel. Use foil only on the baking tray and avoid contact with heating elements.

How do I replace the oven light bulb?

Ensure the cooker is disconnected from the power supply. Remove the glass cover by turning it anticlockwise, replace the bulb with a G9 halogen or specific oven bulb (25W/40W) as stated in the manual, then refit the cover.

What does the flame failure safety device do?

The flame failure safety device automatically cuts off the gas supply if the flame goes out, preventing gas leaks. This is present on all burners. If a burner does not stay lit, the thermocouple may need cleaning or replacement.

How do I set the timer on the LGV65?

Press the Timer button, use the +/- buttons to set the desired time, and press Start. The oven will automatically turn off when the countdown reaches zero. For manual operation, set the timer to the clock symbol or 'manual' position.

Why is my oven not heating evenly?

Check that the oven is not overloaded, and allow air circulation. If using fan function, ensure the fan is running. For conventional mode, rotate trays halfway through cooking. If problem persists, the heating elements or thermostat may need servicing.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the Lock button (usually marked with a key icon) for 3 seconds until a beep sounds or a lock symbol appears on the display. To deactivate, press and hold again.

Can I use the grill with the oven door closed?

No, the grill function should be used with the oven door partially open to prevent overheating and ensure proper ventilation. Some models have a door safety switch that stops the grill if the door is closed.

What should I do if my cooker displays an error code?

Refer to the manual's error code table. Common codes: F1 (oven sensor fault), F3 (temperature sensor short-circuit). Reset by disconnecting power for 1 minute. If code reappears, contact technical support.

trouble shooting

know your cooker

If the cooker does not work

If the appliance does not operate check whether:

• The power and gas supply are on.
- The fuse has blown/circuit breaker has tripped/main distribution switch has been turned off.
• The temperature control has been set correctly.
- The main oven will not light has the clock been set.
- If the clock programmed for auto cooking, The ignition is operating continuously. Check your electric power supply earthing system. This cooker must be earthed if in doubt consult a qualified electrician.

If the appliance is still not operating after the above checks, please refer to the section on how to obtain service.

Please ensure that the above checks have been made as a charge will be made if no fault is found.

Performance characteristics when in use

• When using your appliance for the first few times, an odour and/or smoke may be emitted which is normal - see page 12.
• It is normal for the metal parts to produce noise when in use, this is due to expansion and contraction.
• When in use, steam may be produced which is normal and not a fault of the cooker.
• At the end of a cooking session, it is normal to have a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. This should disperse in a few seconds.
• If, whilst cooking, steam produced comes in to contact with cool surface's on the outside of the appliance, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault.

replacing the oven lamp

Switch off at the mains.

1 Remove the glass cover of the lamp by turning it anti-clockwise.
2 Remove the bulb by turning it anti-clockwise.
3 After installing the correct bulb, reinstall the glass cover.

Replacement light bulbs can be easily obtained from a good local electrical or DIY store.

Warning!

Ensure the appliance is switched off at the mains before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.

future transportation

Keep the original carton and other packaging material in a safe place. Transport the cooker in its original carton. Follow the instructions that are printed on the carton.

To prevent the accessories inside the oven from damaging the oven door, tape a strip of cardboard onto the inside of the oven door that lines up with the position of the trays. Tape the oven door to the side walls.

If you do not have the original carton

Take the necessary precautions in order to prevent the exterior panels, and the glass surfaces of the oven from being damaged.

Pack the oven in bubble wrap or thick cardboard and tape it securely in order to prevent damage during transportation.

Accuracy

Note that times and temperatures in this book are for guidance only.

location

• The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets spaced over 600 mm apart. The space either side of the cooker need only be sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing. It can be used with cabinets on one side or both sides as well as in a corner setting. It can also be used free-standing.
• Adjacent side walls above the appliance must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be of heat resistant material. Leave at least 750 mm clearance above the hob.
• Excess steam from the oven is expelled at the rear of the appliance therefore the wall behind the cooker needs to be protected against grease and moisture.

ventilation

Natural ventilation is important for the correct functioning of the appliance and your own safety.

Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example the opening of a window, or the use of permanent fixed mechanical ventilation system, for example, an extractor fan or cooker hood that ventilates to the outside.

Room considerations and built-in ventilation

The appliance must not be installed in a room without a window or other controllable opening. If it is installed in a room without a door which opens directly to the outside, a permanent opening is required. The size of the free area of a permanent opening must be as follows:

Room volume	Opening
Up to 5m3	100cm2
5m3 to 10m3	50cm2
Above 10m3	None
In cellar or basement	65cm2

These requirements apply for a full cooker equivalent, however if there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room. The regulations in force for the UK and Ireland should be consulted.

care & cleaning

Turn OFF at the mains before cleaning.

- Before switching on again ensure that all gas controls are in the OFF position.

• Make sure that the oven, grill and burners are sufficiently cool before you start cleaning.
• A residual heat will remain after you switch off the cooker so take care not to touch hot surfaces.

Exterior

Use a damp cloth to clean the outside. Never use any sharp instruments, abrasive household cleaner, or detergents for cleaning. For hard stains use suitable washing liquid.

Burners

The pan supports can be removed and the top burner plate can be cleaned with soapy water and rinsed with a dry cloth.

Wash and rinse the gas burner caps and the pan supports with soapy water. Never wash them in a dishwasher. For the dirt and stains on the burner heads that does not wash off, use a proprietary metal surface cleaner.

Hob surround

Clean with a cloth wrung out in soapy water. Stubborn stains can be removed with a cream, paste or liquid cleaner. Check that the cleaning agent used is approved by the Vitreous Enamel Development Council.

Control panel

Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth. Do not use oven cleaners or aerosol sprays, scouring pads or abrasive powder for cleaning the plastic knobs or end caps as damage will occur. Take extreme care when removing and re-fitting control knobs. Never operate the appliance without all control knobs fitted. The correct control knob must be fitted to the corresponding control.

Grill and oven interiors

Take out all trays and pans. Clean out the interior with a piece of moist, soapy cloth. Then, clean it once more with a wet piece of cloth and leave it to dry.

We recommend that grill elements be wiped with a damp cloth to remove any fat splashes. This will prevent fumes from any fat being burned off when the cooker is next used.

Never clean the inside of the grill or oven and trays with hard brushes, steel pads or knives.

Do not use cleaning agents containing acid or chlorine on the handle. Cleaning can be performed using a soft piece of cloth and soapy water or commercially available special surface cleaners.

Oven interior

Remove the rod shelves for washing in the sink. Use a fine steel wool soap pad for removing stubborn stains from the rod shelves and

floor of the oven. Take care during cleaning not to damage, bend or dislodge from the surrounding clips the thermostat sensor which is located at the top right hand side of the oven.

Catalytic liners should never require cleaning if very hot temperatures are used regularly.

Grill / Oven doors

Wipe over the door outer panels with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water, then after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clean water, dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use scouring pads or abrasive powder which may scratch the surface. Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort the door seal. Ensure that the door seal is dry after cleaning. Do not lift the door seal.

The inner glass door panels can be removed for cleaning. Open the door fully and gently lift out the glass using extreme care to ensure that the edges of glass are protected. Clean as above, but do not use household detergents, bleach, scouring pads or rust removers. Reinstall the glass panels carefully preventing sudden shocks.

Over time...

• Slight discolouration of liners and other surfaces may occur in time. This does not affect the functioning of the appliance.

operating the grill

Use of grill pan handle

Warning! Always use an oven glove to protect your hand when using the grill as all metal parts can become very hot.

The grill pan has a detachable handle. Make sure the handle is securely located between the raised profiles across the front of the grill pan. See the diagrams for fitting the handle. To remove the handle, reverse the sequence of operations.

Always take care not to touch hot surfaces when using the grill pan handle. Ensure when using the grill pan handle that it is centralised and secure. If the handle is left in position when grilling, it will get very hot.

Grilling guidelines

Use the following chart for guidelines. For thicker foods requiring longer cooking, turn the control to a lower setting after the initial sealing on both sides. The thicker the food, the lower the control should be set. When grilling thicker food, the grill rack should be turned over to its lowest position.

Food	Grill setting	Approximate cooking time
Toasting of Bread products	Full on	3-10 mins
Small cuts of meat, sausages, bacon, etc.	High to Full	15-20 mins
Chops etc.Gammon steaksChicken pieces	Medium	20-25 mins. Wire rack used in upturned position for chicken.
Fish:FingersWhole Fillets	Medium	10-20 mins. Whole fish and fillets placed in the base of the grill pan.
Fish in breadcrumbs	Medium	15-20 mins.
Pre-Cooked potato products	Medium	15-20 mins.
Pizzas	Medium	12-15 mins. in the base of the grill pan.
Browning of food	Full on	8-10 mins. Dish placed directly on the base of the grill compartment.

operating the grill

Parts may become hot when the grill/top oven is in use, children must be kept away.

When the door is fully open, it remains tilted slightly, so that any spillage will be directed away from you.

There is a safety device that prevents the build-up of gas inside the cavity if the burner doesn't light or goes out for any reason.

The control knob operates the top cavity as a grill or as an oven depending on whether you turn it clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Using as a grill

The door must be kept open during grilling at all times.

1 Open the door.

2 Position the shelf in a suitable position.

3 Press and turn the control clockwise to the large flame symbol.

4 While keeping it depressed, press the ignition button to light the burner.

5 Keep the control depressed for 15 seconds after the burner has lit to over-ride the safety device.

6 Allow the grill to preheat for 5 minutes.

7 The grill can be operated at the max setting.

8 To switch off turn the knob anti-clockwise to the "●" off position.

• If the burner doesn't light the first time, press the ignition button once or twice again. If it still doesn't light, turn off and wait for 1 minute to allow gas to disperse before trying again.
• Do not hold the control in for more than 15 seconds.
• Ensure the food is correctly positioned on the grill pan under the grill burner.
• Oiling the grill rack prevents meat sticking on the wires.
• Do not line the grill pan with aluminium foil. This will result in an increase in temperatures and could result in damage to your cooker or increased risk of fire.
• Always remove the grill pan from the compartment as soon as you have finished grilling, it makes the pan much easier to clean. When grilling, if meat is placed too near the grill burner, the fat may ignite.

preparation and burning off

Important for asthmatic sufferers

Before using for the first time, protective coatings need to be burnt off. Fumes will be emitted but this is quite normal.

Ensure the room is very well ventilated during the burning off process. Avoid directly inhaling the fumes during this process.

Grill

Open the grill door. Remove grill tray, wire rack and detachable handle and operate the grill for about 15 minutes.

Oven

Remove tray and shelf racks and operate the oven at gas mark 8 for 30 minutes.

Cleaning

Before you start using your cooker, clean the appliance as recommended under Care and cleaning on page 23.

Shelf racks

The shelf racks with a heat deflection sheet should be positioned with the heat deflection sheet at the rear of the oven.

Oven burner heat shield positioning

Before you start using your cooker please ensure the main oven burner heatshield is positioned as shown.

Turning on and off

Flame Failure Device

All burners are protected by flame failure devices, if the flames are extinguished for any reason the gas will automatically be cut off.

The burner control knobs have a safety feature.

1 Push the appropriate knob in slightly and turn anti-clockwise to the required setting.
2 While keeping the knob depressed press the ignition button.

3 Keep the Knob depressed for 15 seconds after the burner has lit to override the safety device.

If still no ignition occurs, wait for 1 minute and repeat again.

Warning: Do not keep the knob in pressed position more than 15 seconds.

4 To switch a burner off turn the corresponding knob to ●.
- Turning the control knob fully anti-clockwise to the small flame symbol enables you to simmer without accidentally switching off.

Ignition button

• Pressing this button provides a spark at all burners, only the one turned on will light.
• If a hob burner doesn't light, press again until it does.

Flame control

• When turning on a hotplate burner, stay and make sure that it has lit, and adjust the flame immediately.
• Selection of the correct flame height is especially important to safety. Adjust the burner flame so that it does not extend beyond the bottom of the pan, any higher and the flame becomes inefficient and can be a potential fire hazard.
• To make sure that the cooker is operating safely, periodic checks are advised.
• At low settings, do not leave the burners unattended for long periods of time.
• The burner flames should burn with a visible bluish cone within the main flame, and with no sign of yellowness. If at the first lighting they are very noisy and yellow, turn out at once and check that the burner cap has been correctly replaced. If on re-lighting there is no improvement, ask your supplier to check them. The inner portions of the flames as described above may not be very clear, but this is not detrimental in anyway.

The pan supports are not interchangeable.

Bottom and top oven light

- Pressing this button will turn the light on. - Press again to turn the light off.

Pan choice

In choosing pans, look for pan handles that can be held easily and will stay cool. Avoid pans that are unstable and easily tipped. Pans that are too heavy to move easily when filled can also be a hazard. Only use flat bottomed pots or pans.

Pan size

For maximum efficiency and safety, use the recommended pan sizes for each burner.

• Use pans which have sufficient capacity for the amount of food being cooked so they don't boil over and cause unnecessary cleaning.
  • Do not place lids on the burners.

Always position pans centrally over the burners. When transferring pans from one burner to another always lift the pans do not slide them.

Glass lid

• The glass lid must be in a fully raised position before the hob burners can be used.
• The glass lid is fitted with a safety device which cuts off the gas supply to the hob burners when the lid is closed. The gas supply is restored when the lid is raised.
• Do not use the safety device to control the hob burners.

• Prior to closing the glass lid make sure:
• Hob controls are off
• Cooking utensils have been removed
• The hob burners have been allowed to cool
- Always raise the lid during oven or grill operation. The toughened glass lid is not intended as a work surface, as it becomes hot when any part of the cooker is in use and the surface may be scratched if items with rough or sharp edges are placed on it.

deep fat frying

• Never fill the pan more than the one-third full of fat or oil.
• Never leave unattended during heating or cooking.
• Do not fry too much food at the same time especially frozen food. This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much resulting in greasy food.
• Always dry food thoroughly before frying and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in particular will cause frothing and spitting if added too quickly.
• Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
• Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.

In the event of a chip pan or other pan fire

1 Turn off the cooker.
2 Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.
3 Do not try to remove a burning pan from the hob.

Burns and injuries are caused almost invariably by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.

Do not use water on the fire.

Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.
