Z C G 6 2 0 0 General Natural Gas Models only The grill pan handle can be removed. To put the handle on to the pan you should put the chrome bracket over the cut out in the pan and then slide the handle on to the left as far as the bump on the pan.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 The hotplate You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. 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.

For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 Helpful hints Keep flames under the base of the pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 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.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 Baking trays and dishes For your safety Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burner. This will damage the cooker as well as the ovenware and possibly the floor covering underneath the cooker.

Z C G 6 2 0 0 Roasting For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to prevent splashing. It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended cooktimes.
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. Or you can take the top tray out of the oven when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking.

Note: You must soak dried beans then boil them in an open pan for 15 minutes before you add them to any dish.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 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.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 Soups, casseroles and stews Do not cook casseroles over 3kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Vegetables Cut into small pieces.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 For your safety For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas cooker clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuff could cause a fire. Try to mop up spills and splashes as soon as they happen. But be careful as parts of the cooker will be hot.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 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.

Z C G 6 2 0 0 Oven cleaning cycle You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to follow the cycle. If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should follow the cleaning cycle once a week.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 Cleaning between the outer and inner door glass You can remove the glass from the oven door if you need to. To remove the outer glass 1 Open the oven door so you can get at the two cross head screws on the top of the oven door.
Z C G 6 2 0 0 General information For your safety Do not block any of the cooker vents. Never line any part of the cooker with aluminium foil. Don't let items which can catch fire or electric mains leads such as kettle flexes trail over any part of the cooker.
