Frequently Asked Questions - Caprice SOH72 THETFORD

What gas types can the Caprice SOH72 use?
The cooker is supplied for use with LPG (Butane/Propane) but can be converted for Natural Gas (G20/G25) using a conversion kit. Refer to the manual for instructions.
How do I clean the hob burners?
Remove the burner caps and rings, wash them in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Ensure burner ports are clear before reassembling.
Why won't the oven ignite?
Check that the gas supply is open. Ensure the oven knob is pushed fully in while turning to high. If the spark is weak, replace the battery (AA) behind the control panel or check 12V power. If still no ignition, the thermocouple may need cleaning.
Can I use the oven and grill simultaneously?
It is not recommended to use the oven and grill at the same time as they share the same compartment, leading to uneven cooking. Use one function at a time.
How do I adjust the oven temperature?
The oven has a thermostat controlled by the oven knob. Turn to the desired temperature setting (1-8, with 8 being max). The oven will maintain the set temperature; a thermostat click indicates when the burner cycles on/off.
What should I do if the flame is yellow or sooty?
Yellow flames indicate incomplete combustion. Check burner caps are fitted correctly, ports not blocked. Ensure the air shutter (if adjustable) is set for the gas type. If persists, contact a qualified technician.
Is the oven door removable?
Yes, the oven door can be removed for cleaning. Open fully, press the hinge catches, and lift off. To refit, align hinges and push down until they lock.
How often should I service the cooker?
Thetford recommends an annual service by a qualified gas engineer to check gas pressure, seals, and safety devices, especially for mobile installations.
Can I use this cooker on mains gas?
Yes, but it requires a conversion kit (part number 435000) and adjustment of the gas injectors. Only a registered gas installer should perform the conversion.
Where can I get spare parts?
Spare parts are available from Thetford dealers or online. Common parts include burner caps, thermocouples, knobs, and oven door seal. Use part numbers from the manual.

5. Before use

Before using the appliance:

■ Ensure that all packaging materials have been removed.
■ Clean the appliance with warm water and household detergent and dry carefully with a soft cloth.
■ Ensure that the gas supply is connected and turned on.
■ Ensure that the appliance is connected to the 12V DC battery for the spark ignition.
■ Ensure that the pan supports are positioned properly.
■ Ignite the gas burners and let them burn to expel odours and vapours first.
- Ignite the burner and heat the grill for about 20 minutes to eliminate any residual factory lubricants that might impart unpleasant smells to the food being cooked. Smoke may occur during this procedure. Open any windows and turn on mechanical ventilators to help remove the smoke.

- Ignite the burner and heat the oven for about 30 minutes at 200ircC to eliminate any residual factory lubricants that might impart unpleasant smells to cooked food. Smoke may occur during this procedure. Open any windows and turn on mechanical ventilators to help remove the smoke.

Dual Fuel only:

■ Ensure the electricity is connected and switched on.
■ Prime the hotplate by switching on the hotplate for a short period, without a pan, to harden and burn off the coating. Use a medium to high setting for 3 – 5 minutes. Allow adequate ventilation to disperse any smoke that occurs during this process. Allow the hotplate to cool.
- Season the hotplate by heating the hotplate for 30 seconds on a medium setting and then switching off. Pour a minimal amount of unsalted vegetable oil onto a clean dry cloth or paper towel, and apply a thin coat of oil to the hotplate surface. Wipe off any excess oil, then heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 1 minute. Occasional seasoning will help to maintain the hotplate's appearance.

THETFORD Caprice SOH72 - Dual Fuel only: - 1

Only use LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas). The appliance operates on propane or butane. Propane is preferred over butane, because butane provides poor performance at an ambient temperature below 10irc C and cannot be used at an ambient temperature below 5irc C.

■ Ensure that there is at least a 10mm gap between the pans and the edges of the hob.
■ Turn the pans so that the handles do not overhang the front of the appliance.
■ Ensure that the flame of the gas burner heats the bottom of the pan, not the sides.
■ The pans and trays supplied with this appliance are the maximum sizes. Do not use larger pans and trays. They may restrict good circulation of heat, which may increase cooking times.
■ The oven shelf allows good circulation at the rear of the oven.
■ A raised bar at the rear of the shelf prevents trays or dishes making contact with the back of the oven.
■ To remove a shelf, pull it forward until it stops, raise at the front and remove.
■ To place a shelf in the oven, lower it at the front and slide it backward until it stops.
■ Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use.
■ Do not use the appliance while the vehicle is moving.
■ Turn the control knob back to the 0 position after cooking.
- Keep the appliance clean and prevent accumulation of grease and food scraps.

THETFORD Caprice SOH72 - Safe cooking - 5

Never cover slots or holes in the appliance and never cover a shelf with materials such as aluminium foil. That restricts the airflow and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.

THETFORD Caprice SOH72 - Safe cooking - 6

The food shelves and trays in the appliance are hot during and after use. Allow all parts to cool before touching them, as this can cause serious injury. Always use oven gloves when removing the shelves and trays.

11. Temperature control

The temperature in the oven is controlled by a thermostatic gas tap and is variable over the range 130irc C to 240irc C.

The table below provides a guide to the approximate temperatures at each of the shelf positions with respect to the gas mark setting. Good use can be made of the temperature variation between the shelf positions, as several dishes requiring different temperatures may be cooked at the same time. In this way maximum benefit can be obtained from the gas used to heat the oven.

13. Gas leaks

As soon as you smell gas:

■ Ensure that all burners are turned off.
■ Extinguish all naked lights and do not smoke.
■ Shut off the gas supply at the gas bottle immediately.
■ Do not use electrical switches.
■ Open all doors and windows.

THETFORD Caprice SOH72 - Gas leaks - 1

LPG is heavier than air. Escaping gas accumulates at lower levels. By following the strong, unpleasant smell of gas, you can determine where the leak is located. To investigate where it is exactly, use a special leak detection spray. Never use an open flame to find the leak!

To reduce energy use on the hob while cooking:

■ Use the correct size of pan – a pan which fits the hotplate will use less energy than one that is too large or too small.
■ Use the minimum heat setting to maintain simmering or boiling – additional heat is just wasted.
■ Cover pans or kettles with a lid whenever possible – this helps to retain heat.
■ Do not use old, damaged or distorted pans, they will reduce efficiency.
