Hotplate  
The hotplate lid is fitted with a safety device which cuts off the gas supply to the  
hotplate burners unless the lid is fully open. Do not use the safety device as a means of  
controlling the hotplate burners.  
The hotplate has one high speed burner, two normal simmering burners and one small  
simmering burner which will accommodate pans between 120mm (43/4”) and 260mm  
(101/4”) diameter. All pans should be positioned centrally over the burners.  
When using small pans over small or medium hotplate burners better stability can be  
achieved by using the pan support trivet.  
TO USE THE HOTPLATE  
1. Remove any items or spillage from the top of the lid and then raise it to its  
fully open position.  
2. Press the ignition button and then push in and turn the control knob of the  
chosen burner anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol. Continue to push in  
the knob until the sparks light the gas.  
3. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the heat input.  
Only turn the control knob between the large flame symbol and the small  
flame symbol when adjusting the setting.  
4. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the symbol O.  
DO NOT use the hotplate unless all pan supports are in position.  
DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be unstable.  
DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan supports.  
DO NOT use the glass lid as a working surface.  
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignitor for lighting the gas. To ensure rapid lighting of  
the burners every time they are used, the ignitors must be kept clean and dry. Remove  
any food spillage or cleaning materials from the ignitor using a small nylon brush such  
as a tooth brush. Access to the ignitor can be achieved by lifting off the loose burner  
parts carefully when the burners are cool.  
When the hotplate burner bodies and caps are removed for cleaning, be careful not to  
drop any food particles or cleaning materials into the burner bases, to avoid the  
possibility of blocking the gas jets.  
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit may appear on the top edge of the  
pan support fingers. See ‘Care and Cleaning’ section for cleaning information.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR DEEP FAT FRYING  
1. Never fill chip pans more than one third full with oil or fat.  
2. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooling period.  
3. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.  
4. 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.  
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.  
HOW TO DEAL WITH A FAT FIRE  
1. Do not move the pan.  
2. Turn off the hotplate burners.  
3. Smother the flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth to extinguish the fire.  
Do not use water or a fire extinguisher as the force of it may spread the  
burning fat or oil over the edge of the pan.  
4. Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving it.

Grill  
CAUTION – ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS USED.  
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.  
The grill is fitted with a safety device that will cut off the gas supply to the burner if the  
flame is extinguished for any reason. Each time the grill is used, the safety device has  
to be activated by pushing and holding in the control knob for 3 seconds after the gas  
has lit.  
GRILL PAN AND HANDLE  
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to facilitate cleaning and storage. The  
handle can be fixed as follows :  
1. Remove the screw and washer from the grill pan bracket.  
2. Tilt the handle over the recess. (A)  
3. Slide the handle towards the centre of the pan. (B)  
4. Locate the handle over the bracket. (C)  
For a fixed handle, replace the screw and washer and ensure they are fully tightened.  
If a detachable handle is required, do not replace the screw and washer.  
Warning : Ensure when using the grill pan handle in the detachable manner it is centralised  
and secure.  
The grill pan can be stored in the top compartment with the handle attached by  
placing the shelf in the middle or lower position and tilting the grill pan over the rear  
edge of the shelf.

If for any reason the grill burner has not lit after 15 seconds, turn the control knob to  
the off position, leave the grill door open and wait for at least a minute before  
attempting to light the burner again.  
An odour may be noticed when first using the grill – this should cease after a short  
period of use.  
DO NOT use the grill with the door closed.  
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify  
the heat and create a fire hazard.  
RELIGHTING THE BURNER  
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner  
control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.  
11  
 
Grill  
Grilling can be started from cold but for best results preheat for approximately two  
minutes. Most cooking is done with the heat on full, but it may be desirable to reduce  
it for thicker pieces of meat or for keeping food warm.  
For au gratin dishes eg. Macaroni Cheese and meringue toppings eg. Baked Alaska,  
place the dish on the floor of the grill compartment. The base of the grill pan can be  
used for warming fruit garnishes on the reduced setting.  
REMOVE HEAT SHIELD  
FROM SHELF WHEN  
GRILLING FOR MAXIMUM  
GRILLING AREA.  
NOTE: Strong detergents used in dishwashers may damage the grill pan grid finish;  
clean in soapy water as described in CARE AND CLEANING section.  
Always ensure that the grill pan handle is correctly fitted to the grill pan.  
If necessary tighten any loose screws with a screwdriver.

Main Oven  
The main oven is fitted with a safety device that will cut off the gas supply to the burner  
if the flame is extinguished for any reason. Each time the oven is used the safety device  
has to be activated by pushing and holding in the control knob for 3 seconds after the  
gas has lit.  
The oven has different heat zones – the thermostat settings refer to the temperature  
on the middle shelf position; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler. Two  
shelves provide five possible cooking levels enabling full use of the different  
temperatures inside the oven.  
Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent if from being pulled out too far when attending  
to food. Shelves are removed from the oven by pulling them out to the stop and then  
lifting them at the front to withdraw.  
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used is 325mm x 350mm (13” x 14”).  
TO USE THE MAIN OVEN  
1. Place the oven shelves in the appropriate positions (refer to cooking charts).  
2. Push in and turn the control knob fully anti-clockwise. Continue to push in the  
control knob for at least a further 3 seconds after the gas has lit to allow time for  
the safety device to operate. If the burner extinguishes when the control knob is  
released, repeat the procedure ensuring the control knob is fully depressed and  
allowing more time for the safety device to operate.  
3. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting. (refer to cooking chart).  
4. To turn off, turn the control knob clockwise to the symbol O.  
If for any reason the oven burner has not lit after 15 seconds, turn the control knob to  
the OFF position. Leave the main oven door open and wait at least 1 minute before  
attempting to light the burner again.  
Never place dishes over the burner.  
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven – this should cease after a short  
period of use.  
RELIGHTING THE BURNER  
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner  
control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.

Main Oven  
COLD START COOKING  
Anything requiring long slow cooking such as casseroles and rich fruit cakes can be  
put into a cold oven. Satisfactory results can also be obtained with creamed mixture,  
rich pastries or yeast mixtures, but for perfection we recommend preheating the oven  
for about 15 minutes at the gas mark you require for cooking.  
ROASTING OF LARGE POULTRY  
The maximum weight of poultry that can be accommodated is 11.5kg (25 lbs) of  
suitable shape.  
It is important to check that the bird DOES NOT overhang the burner at the back of the  
oven.  
STORAGE AND RE-HEATING OF FOOD  
It is vitally important to strictly adhere to the basic principles of food handling and  
hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.  
1. If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it in a clean container as  
quickly as possible.  
2. Completely thaw frozen food in the refrigerator before re-heating.  
3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the hotplate or in a hot oven, Mk. 6,  
and then serve immediately.  
4. Only re-heat food once.  
‘COOK CHILL’ DISHES  
These should always be placed in a pre-heated oven ideally on the first or second shelf  
position. Follow the packet instructions for cooking time.  
ALUMINIUM FOIL  
If using Aluminium Foil:  
1. Remember that it is important to increase the cooking time by one third.  
2. Never allow the foil to touch the sides of the oven.  
3. Never cover the oven interior with foil.  
4. Never cover the oven shelves with foil.

Top Oven  
The top oven can be used to cook small quantities of food or used in conjunction with  
the main oven to provide additional cooking space.  
The top oven is fitted with a safety device that will cut off the gas supply to the burner  
if the flame is extinguished for any reason. Each time the top oven is used, the safety  
device has to be activated by pushing and holding in the control knob for 3 seconds  
after the gas has lit.  
The shelf in the top oven has a heat shield fitted at the rear.  
The shield can be removed for cleaning and grilling, but should be  
replaced when using the oven for best cooking results.  
It has a safety stop to prevent it from being pulled out too far when  
attending to food. The shelf is removed from the oven by pulling it  
out to the stop and then lifting at the front to withdraw.  
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used is 300mm x 350mm (12” x 14”).  
TO USE THE TOP OVEN  
1. Check that the heat shield is fitted to the shelf.  
2. Place the top oven shelf in the appropriate position (refer to cooking chart).  
3. Push in and turn the control knob fully anti-clockwise. Continue to push in the  
control knob for at least a further 3 seconds after the gas has lit to allow time for  
the safety device to operate. If the burner extinguishes when the control knob is  
released, repeat the procedure ensuring the control knob is fully depressed and  
allowing more time for the safety device to operate.  
4. Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting. (refer to cooking chart).  
5. To turn off, turn the control knob clockwise to the symbol O.  
If for any reason the oven burner has not lit after 15 seconds, turn the control knob to  
the OFF position. Leave the top oven door open and wait at least 1 minute before  
attempting to light the burner again.  
Always push the door firmly closed to ensure that there is no loss of heat through the  
door seal.  
GUIDANCE ON USING THE TOP OVEN  
1. Best results are obtained by pre-heating the oven for about 15 minutes.  
2. Food which is higher than or will rise above 125mm (5”) cannot be cooked in the  
top oven.  
Never place dishes over the burner.  
An odour may be noticed when first using the oven – this should cease after a short  
period of use.  
RELIGHTING THE BURNER  
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner  
control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.

Installation Instructions  
STABILITY CHAIN  
A hole in the gas inlet valve bracket can be used to engage a stability chain.  
CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY  
670  
Connection to the cooker should be made with an approved appliance flexible  
connection to BS 669. A length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length of hose  
chosen should be such that when the cooker is in situ, the hose does not touch the  
floor.  
Those cookers converted to use on LPG should be connected with a hose suitable for  
LPG and capable of withstanding a pressure of 50 mbar.  
An adaptor backplate should be fitted within the shaded area shown, to allow the  
cooker to be pushed fully to the wall and to ensure that the flexible hose is only likely  
to come into contact with areas at the rear of the cooker that do not exceed a  
temperature rise of 70˚C.  
28  
 
Electrical Connections  
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.  
CONNECT TO A 230-240V A.C. SUPPLY ONLY.  
Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily accessible  
wall socket which is adjacent to but not directly above, and not more than 1.25m away from the  
appliance and capable of electrical isolation.  
The mains lead should be routed such that it cannot touch hot parts of the cooker i.e. the back  
panel above a height of 650mm from the floor.  
Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced with a  
suitable plug as outlined below.  
NOTE: The removed plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be  
properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket –  
with the obvious consequent danger.  
IF THE FITTED PLUG IS REMOVED  
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below to a three pin plug of not less  
than 13 amp capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a fuse which is  
approved to B.S. 1362.

Fuse  
Cord Clamp  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the  
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:– The wire which is  
coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with  
the letter E or by the earth symbol  
or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is  
coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the N or coloured black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the  
letter L or coloured red. When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely  
retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. As the  
appliance must be earthed, do not use 2-pin sockets outlets, if you are in doubt, consult a  
qualified electrician.  
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out  
by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size i.e.  
1.0mm2 cross sectional area PVC cable, available from our parts department (see Back Cover).  
IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED  
In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied an ASTA approved fuse to BS1362 must be  
fitted.  
NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse  
cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been obtained and fitted. A  
new fuse cover can be obtained from your local Electricity Board. The colour of the correct  
replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug.  
Make sure that the cable does not become trapped when pushing the cooker into position.

remain when the control is released 3 seconds later. leave the oven full on with the  
door closed for 10 minutes, then check that when the control is turned to mark 1  
that the flame reduces.  
4. Check that with the top oven set to mark 8, the burner ignites and that the flame  
remains when the control knob is released 3 seconds later. Leave the oven full on  
with the door closed for 10 minutes, and check that when the control is turned to  
mark 1 that the flame reduces.  
5. Check the operation of the oven timer and oven light(s).  
Instruct the user on operation of the cooker.  
On those models adjusted for use with LPG, it is normal for the oven and grill burners  
to burn with yellow tips.
