Lighting the appliance The ignition system works by means of a battery. Details on how to replace the battery are given on page 25. Hotplate To light Push in the control knob and turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately.
Grill To light: 1 Open the door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. 3 Leave the grill door open when you are using the grill.
To turn off any burner 1 Push in the control knob and turn it to the off position. This is shown by a large dot. R G 5 0 M 6 For your safety When you are lighting any burner check that it has lit before you leave the appliance. When you are turning off a burner, do not leave the appliance until the flame has gone out.
The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food.
Cooking positions You can put the grill shelf in either of the two positions. Most food should be cooked on the grid in the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to suit different thicknesses of food. You can place some dishes straight on to the grill shelf.
The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan.
The hotplate If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 21 for more information. Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn anticlockwise from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'.
R G 5 0 M 11 The hotplate For your safety 1 Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. 2 Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. 3 Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.
Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of the pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. 2 Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. 3 Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen.
The oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler.
Baking trays and dishes Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly. Do not push dishes too far back as food will burn if it overhangs the burner flames. For the best results we recommend that you use a baking tray which is 310mm (12") square.
Oven cooking chart These instructions are for cooking in the oven after it has been pre-heated for 20 minutes. If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking.
Food Gas mark Shelf position Approximate cooking time Poultry: Chicken Turkey below 4.5kg (10lbs) over 4.5kg (10lbs) Duck and duckling 5 4 4 5 4 4 4 or 5 4 20 mins. per ½kg (1lb) and 20 mins. 25 mins. per ½kg (1lb) and 25 mins. 15 mins. per ½kg (1lb) and 15 mins.
Food Gas mark Shelf position Approximate cooking time Pastries: Plate tart (shortcrust) Fruit pie (shortcrust) Mince pies (flan pastry) 6 6 5 1 1 2 & 4 25 -35 mins. 25-35 mins. 15-25 mins. To help pastry brown on the underside cook on a metal plate, or if plates are flat and have no rim underneath, place on baking tray.
Slow cooking The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn the oven down to a slow cook setting.
Soups, casseroles and stews Do not cook casseroles over 2.7kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil. Vegetables Cut into small pieces. Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish.
Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap except those recommended. Please note: If we recommend you use hot soapy water we mean hot water with washing up liquid in it and not any other cleaning product.
You can wash the removable parts in very hot soapy water. You may use mild abrasives. Make sure that the electrode and the hole and slots in the crown are not blocked with food or cleaning materials. Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water.
The grill Do not clean the grill burner itself. The burner is designed to be self cleaning. Cleaning the grill may cause the holes in the burner to become blocked preventing it from operating correctly. Please note that due to the nature of stainless steel the grill burner may tarnish through use over a period of time.
