THE TIMER THE TIMER Please note that this is a 24 hour clock, for example 2.00pm is shown as 1400. In the following pages we explain how to set the controls. Read through them a few times until you are familiar with the procedure.
AUTOMATIC CONTROL The automatic control can be used to control either oven but you can only use the control for both ovens at the same time if the cooking time is the same. When you use the automatic controls for the first time it’s probably best to choose a time when you are at home.
THE GAS HOB SELECTING THE HOB USES OF THE HOB The gas hob has three different burner sizes to suit different types of cooking: To ensure maximum burner efficiency only use pots and pans with flat bases appropriate to the burner size used.
HINTS AND TIPS · Keep flames under the base of pans. flames lick round the sides of the pan you are wasting gas. · Do not overfill pans or they will boil over. · Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.
THE GRILL USES OF THE GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. SELECTING THE GRILL · To operate the grill open the grill door and turn the Top Oven/Grill control to the required setting. ·...
To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking. HINTS AND TIPS · Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist during cooking.
THE TOP OVEN USES OF THE TOP OVEN The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet or savoury flans or quiche.
HINTS AND TIPS · Most cooking should be carried out using an oven shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners. · Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be cooked in the main fan oven. However, they may be cooked on a straight shelf placed on the base of the top oven provided there is sufficient room for air circulation around the food.
THE MAIN FAN OVEN USES OF THE MAIN FAN OVEN The oven is heated by an element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven and the element heats the air which circulates in the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of fan oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven.
HINTS AND TIPS · Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelf positions are numbered from the bottom upwards. · When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results.
OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements.

ROASTING CHART ROASTING CHART INTERNAL TEMPERATURES – Rare : 50-60°C; Medium : 60-70°C; Well done : 70-80°C MEAT Beef Beef, boned Mutton and Lamb Pork and Veal Chicken Turkey and Goose Duck Pheasant Rabbit Potatoes with meat Potatoes without meat The roasting temperatures and times given in the chart should be adequate for most joints, but slight adjustments may be required to allow for personal requirements and the shape and texture of the meat.
DEFROST FEATURE USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This fan oven function defrosts most foods faster than more conventional methods. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc.
CARE AND CLEANING BEFORE CLEANING THE APPLIANCE, ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE APPLIANCE DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF AT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your appliance, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.
CLEANING OUTSIDE APPLIANCE DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials e.g. Hob Brite, Brillo pads or scourers on painted or printed finishes as damage may occur. Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven doors and appliance sides using a soft cloth and hot soapy water. To prevent streaking on stainless steel models finish with a soft cloth.
· Cook recommended Higher temperatures during increase soilage. Try cooking temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender. · Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before cooking.
Do not attempt to use the oven without the glass being in place. If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep scratches the glass will be weakened and must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel shattering. Please contact your local Service Force Centre who will be pleased to advise further.
