DO NOT LIFT USING THE HANDLE
Lifting by using the handle could break the door so we strongly recomment to open the door and hold inside the top of the oven cavity. Just be careful to make sure that the door is not allowed to slam closed on your hand.

DO NOT DRAG OR SLIDE THE COOKER

• Tilting or dragging the cooker may distort the legs.
• The cooker may become uneven or off balance if the legs are damaged by improper relocation or lifting.
• Please take care not to slide the cooker

INSTALLING THE ADJUSTABLE LEGS

The cookers are delivered with adjustable height legs that need to be fitted prior to the cooker installation. On some models the legs easily screw into the underside of the cooker. On other models the legs have a new keying system where the screw on the top of the leg is inserted and then slid up the slot so it can be tightened securely. See FIG. 1. You may need to hand tighten the screw into the top of the legs first.
TIP
Measure the height of the benchtop and the cooker itself and then pre adjust the leg height so when they are installed the cooker will be 10 mm above the height of the bench.
TIP
You can lay the cooker carefully on its back to install the legs. Remove all burner components before tilting the cooker back – the procedure requires two people. See FIG. 2. Use the outer carton as a base to protect the cooker and the floor.
When lifting the cooker back up don’t lever the full weight of the cooker on the rear legs, lift the cooker onto all four legs.

INSTALLING THE ANTI TILT BRACKETS
Install the legs to the cooker and adjust the height to the desired level. Make sure that this height is absolutely correct to what you require.

1. On the rear of the cooker there is a covering panel. Accurately measure the distance from the top of this panel to the floor Height H.
2. Mark the same height on the wall against which the cooker is to be installed.
3. Mark the centre of the cooker at the same height on the wall.
4. At a distance of 150mm either side of the centre at the measured height mount the two anti tilt brackets supplied onto the wall.
5. Slide the cooker into position after connecting the chain. The brackets prevent any chance of the cooker tilting forward.

• Rear view showing the anti tilt brackets attached to the wall.

OVEN DOOR REMOVAL
If at some time you wish to remove the oven door follow these procedures. Do not force the door on or off the cooker as you may damage the hinges.
There is a handy video on the Emilia and Glem Gas websites demonstrating how to remove the cooker door. Call Glem Gas Australasia on 1300 307 917 should you require assistance.

1. Open the door fully.
2. Rotate the hinge locking tab using a finger or small screw driver.
3. Tab locked in position, repeat the procedure on each hinge.
4. Crouch in front of the door. With the door partly open (150mm at the top) pull in the direction of the arrows and away from the cooker at the bottom of the door. Then lift the door away from the cooker.

REFITTING THE OVEN DOOR
It is important to hold the door at an angle so there is a 150mm gap at the top of the door. Hook the hinges in first with the groove in the bottom of the hinge sitting on the edge of the slots. The door should feel stable. Fully open the door to allow the unlocking of the hinges. You will then be able to close the door. Close the door gently and if the door doesn’t close correctly, fully open the door and relock the hinges so you can try again. DO NOT FORCE THE DOOR AT ANY TIME.

IDENTIFYING THE SYMBOLS ON THE CONTROL PANEL

• Symbols printed on the control panel identify the functions controlled by each knob and button.
• The table shows the meaning of each symbol. There are differences in designs across models.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

• Remove all packing material, plastic film and literature from the oven before connecting the gas and electricity supplies.

• Make sure all plastic has been removed before use. Some models have trays with a protective coating; make sure that plastic coating has also been removed. Clean the interior of the oven and all accessories with soap and water and dry them carefully.

• Switch the empty oven on to maximum to eliminate grease residues from manufacturing. There may be a slight odour at this time. Run the oven on maximum for a period of 1 hour and open the kitchen windows to ventilate the room. The odour will completely dissipate after a few uses.

• The oven is fitted with 3 or 4 guides for positioning trays and racks at different heights. On some models a telescopic runner is fitted to the middle level.

• Included with all cookers are two oven shelves, a grill tray and a rack insert for the grill tray.

• Some models include an Air Fryer basket feature. It can be purchased as an option for other models. for instructions on use.

OPERATION OF THE GAS COOKTOP

Gas Burners

• The combination of large burners, wok burners and smaller burners provides the flexibility for
  different cooking tasks. All burners are fitted with flame failure safety devices. This means that if the flame goes out for any reason the gas stops flowing.

• To ignite any burners simply depress the corresponding control knob and rotate anti clockwise to the high flame position. As the knob is rotated the gas begins to flow and the electrode begins sparking. Once the flame is lit hold the knob for a couple more seconds to activate the flame failure safety valve.

• In case of ignition malfunction or electricity failure a match can be used to ignite the burners. Strike a match and place it close to the selected burner. Depress the corresponding control knob and turn it anti clockwise to maximum flame.

General Points

• If you have problems lighting the burners check that the round cap on the top of the burner is correctly aligned.
• If the burner is wet the ignition may not operate correctly. In that case light the burner using a match.
• Take care as the electronic sparker is ceramic and can be easily damaged when reassembling the burner after cleaning.

Gas Burner assembly
Sometimes when the burner is difficult to light it is simply due to the burner not being correctly assembled. All parts must be correctly aligned.

OPERATING THE GAS OVEN

• The gas oven is equipped with a gas thermostat. Its purpose is to keep the temperature at a constant heat. The oven is fitted with electronic spark ignition and a safety shut off device.

Lighting the Oven

• First open the oven door and remove the grill tray. Leave the grill tray out when operating the oven as it can affect oven performance unless there is a special requirement to have the tray under the cooking.
• Press the oven control knob and rotate anti-clockwise to the maximum heating position. The electronic ignition is activated automatically when the knob is depressed.
• Keep the knob depressed for about 15 seconds after the flame has lit. Always view the burner during lighting the procedure for safety. There is a hole in the bottom panel of the oven to allow viewing of the burner flame.

Ignition Malfunction

• In case of ignition malfunction or electricity failure depress and turn the oven knob in an anticlockwise direction to reach the maximum heating positioning.
• Light a match and place it near the hole in the base panel, keep the knob depressed. Once the burner is lit keep the knob depressed for 10 to 15 sec.

NOTE

• When lighting the oven for the first time if the electronic ignition fails to light the oven, light the oven manually and run the oven in by operating it at 200 degrees for 20 minutes. This will remove any moisture that may have built up in the electronic ignition. After the cooker cools down try the electronic ignition again.
• Call our after sales service line on 1300 307 917 for any assistance

New Oven Smell

• There are likely to be some odours when using an oven for the first few times. Once the oven has been used the odours will disappear.

GENERAL OVEN PRECAUTIONS

• Avoid touching the heating element inside the oven.
• DO NOT USE polyunsaturated oils with cooking in the oven.
• This type of oil can cause heavy deposits inside the oven that are very difficult to remove.
• DO NOT USE a steam cleaner to clean the oven or cooker.
• DO NOT use strong detergents or acids to clean the oven or cooker as these cleaners can cause rust spotting. Hot water on a cloth is recommended.
• DETERGENTS CAN CAUSE RUST SPOTTING EVEN ON STAINLESS STEEL.
• Call 1300 307 917 for technical advice on cleaning or visit the Emilia and Glem Gas websites for details on maintaining stainless steel.

PRE HEATING THE GAS OVEN

• After the oven has been switched on, keep the door open for a minute then close the door gently so there is no risk of extinguishing the flame.
• Set the oven knob to the required temperature and wait for about 20 minutes before introducing the food. Comply with the cooking indication chart in these instructions to get the best out of the oven and choose the right shelf position.
• Gas ovens heat up very rapidly and will reach temperature within 20 minutes.
• Please note: Gas oven models do not have a temperature indicator light for gas oven mode.

Removing and installing the oven shelves
Slide the oven shelves towards you until they reach the front stop. Tilt them up at the front to clear the side supports and lift them clear. To install the shelves reverse the operation. Ensure that the shelf is correctly installed so that the stops prevent the shelf sliding out in one action.

NOTE
All ovens are different and your new oven may perform differently to your previous model. Shelf positions and operating temperatures may vary to what you are accustomed. It sometimes takes a few uses to become fully familiar with the characteristics of your new oven.

ELECTRIC GRILLING ELEMENT – all cookers

• All Emilia and Glem cookers have an electric grill within the oven compartment. Gas grills have been found to be unsuitable for Australian cooking styles such as grilling lamb.
• The oven door must be closed during grill operation. If the oven has been on, always wait a few minutes before switching on the grill. The grill element is an infrared type, which provides an even controlled heat. When the grill is on an indicator light will come on.
• Using a standard shelf with a drip tray below filled with some water will avoid smoke build-up coming from burnt fat and at the same time assist in keep the food moist.

Cookers with gas ovens

• On cookers with a gas oven the electric grill maybe controlled by a separate button or control knob. The grill operates at a fixed temperature. Change height of the grill tray to vary intensity.

Cookers with electric ovens

• On cookers with electric ovens the grill function is selected on the oven function selector knob or by a separate button that can be pressed to switch on the grill.
• Selected the temperature of the grill using the temperature selection control knob.
• Preheat the grill for 3 minutes prior to introducing the food.
• Never leave the kitchen when grilling as the cooking is fast and needs to be monitored. There is an overide sensor that shuts the grill off in the event of a flare up during cooking.

Selecting the right baking dish

• Black baking dishes transfer heat differently to silver baking dishes. If you are burning the under side of cakes and biscuits try changing the colour of baking tray to silver.

IMPORTANT
Never cook on the bottom floor of the oven and never line the bottom of the oven with foil.

ELECTRIC OVEN FUNCTIONS – functions vary according to cooker model

Multifunction Electric Oven

1. Remove the grill tray.
2. Choose a function using the selector knob for oven functions. Turn the knob to the symbol of the cooking function you wish to use. On some models the ovens only operate as fan forced and the function is automatically selected when selecting the temperature.
3. Rotate the thermostat knob to the desired temperature.
4. Wait until the thermostat indicator light goes off – this indicates that the oven has reached temperature and introduce the food to be cooked.

Selecting the best oven function
All ovens operate differently and trial and error is part of gaining full familiarity with any new oven. Fan forced is great heat up function and very good when cooking on multiple shelves. The classic bake which applies heat from the top and bottom of the oven works well when cooking on a single level.

Oven Light
The oven light illuminates the oven cavity enabling the user to visually monitor the cooking process.
Fan Forced
A circular element around the fan. The air is forced through the element for rapid heat distribution. In some cooking tasks the food may need to be rotated.
Classic Baking
The heat comes from two elements. An element is above an element is under the floor of the oven. A good function for pizza and cooking on single shelves.
Bottom Heat
Heat from the bottom element and distributed by a fan. Too slow for initial heat up but a great function for browning the bases of pizzas, pies and pastries.
Double grill with fan – some models
The grill element produces radiant heat to the top of the food and the fan distributes the heat. Ideal for thicker cuts of meat. Preheat for 3 minutes.
Double grill
Traditional grilling of sausages, chops, cheese toasties. All grilling is done with the door closed for maximum efficiency and to keep cooking odors out of the kitchen.
Grill
The single grill element produces radiant heat over a smaller area so that smaller amounts of food can be prepared without wasting energy.
Defrost
The oven fan operates moving the air in the oven cavity. This reduces the amount of time it takes to defrost food compared to leaving the food at room temperature.

Thermostat Indicator light
The thermostat indicator light switches on and off during cooking to show that the heating cycles are taking place properly. For Static and fan forced mode, the oven must always be preheated.
Try to open the oven door as little as possible as opening the door lowers the temperature and affects the thermostat cycles. When cooking on different shelves simultaneously, put all containers in the centre of the shelves.

• A bell will ring at the end of the time period. It does not switch off the oven.

AIR FRYER BASKET

• A standard inclusion with some models is a stainless steel air fryer basket. The basket uses the movement of hot air in the oven to distribute even heat around the food being cooked.
• Select fan forced function on the electric oven and use the oven fan on gas ovens.
• The air fryer basket cooks any frozen food such as oven fries or fish fillets perfectly. Cook following the normal directions on the packet. Rather than turning the food while cooking just give the basket a shake part way through the cycle. Use the middle shelf and place the grill tray on the shelf below to catch crumbs. Experiment with other foods such as fresh vegetables and try fi lling the grill tray with water to add steam.

SUGGESTED SHELF POSITIONS – TEMPERATURES & COOKING TIMES

OVEN OPERATION NOTES

• The cooking information provided is intended purely as a guideline. Modify them to suit you experience, eating habits and personal taste.
• The times indicated in the table do not include preheating of the oven, which is always recommended. The times and temperature indicated refer to average quantities of food – meats = 1/1.5kg; dough for confectionary, pizza, bread = 0.5/0.8kg.
• Information in brackets with regards to shelves indicates the shelf to use when cooking several dishes together. All ovens are different and experimentation and use of the various cooking functions will determine the most effective way to use the oven to suit your cooking style.
• When cooking on different shelves simultaneously put all containers in the centre of the shelves.

Baking trouble shooting

DOPPIO OVENS – An award winning Australian innovation

• Doppio Ovens are an Australian innovation where the oven can operate using electricity or gas.
• It allows the best of both worlds in oven cooking allowing the selection of the best energy source to match the cooking task. Doppio ovens are operated exactly the same way as a normal gas oven or electric oven, with oven controls for gas and for electricity.
• Gas is typically a moist heat which is perfect for roasting as it reduces shrinkage and retains moisture in the meat. Electricity, being a drier heat, takes moisture out of the mix and works very well for pastries. Both energy sources do a great job but have different characteristics.
• Experimenting by cooking the same dish on time using gas and then repeating using electricity is the best way to learn how to get the most out of a Doppio oven. You will see a difference.

NOTE: Gas and electric power can not be used at the same time in a Doppio oven.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Do not use strong detergents to clean your cooker. Many detergents or cleaning products will mark stainless steel. Oven cleaners are intended for cleaning the internal liner of the oven only and will possibly damage the inside of the door. Avoid ignitors becoming wet as they are an electrical part. Avoid water falling into the burners and always dry everything carefully before use. The oven and hob must be kept clean, as a build up of fat constitutes of a fire risk. A really great tip is to wipe the oven down with something like a baby wipe each time you cook and the oven will rarely need a major clean. Every 3 to 4 years your cooker should be thoroughly checked by an authorised service technician. Call 1 300 307 917 for the service agent in your area

Cleaning of Stainless Steel
In order that your cooker retains its new appearance, care should be taken to protect the stainless steel finish. Never use gritty or abrasive sponges. We highly recommend stainless steel cleaners and protectors. Stubborn stains can be removed by soaking in hot water and stains can be prevented by using a clean cloth soaked in warm water before a spillage becomes cold or dries up. Acid materials like milks, vinegar, citrus juice can damage the most resistant surfaces. If a spill occurs wipe it up immediately.

Oven Cleaning
Oven spills should be cleaned straight away. Leaving spills can also cause permanent damage to the enamel and make it extremely hard to remove later. A non-caustic oven cleaner is recommended such as non caustic “Mr. Muscle” to clean the the oven only. Do not use abrasive scourers, sponges or cleaning products. Wipe the oven out regularly while the oven is still warm using hot soapy water and a soft cloth or even a baby wipe. The removal of side shelves supports makes cleaning easier.

Gas Burners – All models
The burners can be removed from the cooker and cleaned in hot soapy water. The burner covers are made of cast iron so as soon as they are cleaned dry burner covers immediately to prevent rusting. Enamelled trivets are also recommended to be cleaned in hot soapy water. Make sure all pieces are completely dry before placing them back onto the cooker.

Knobs and Control Panel
All knobs are removable. Clean behind the knobs and the control panel to prevent grrease and grime build up that can cause jamming of the knobs/gas taps etc. The stainless steel panel should be cleaned with a damp cloth, do not use anything abrasive.

Cleaning of Oven Door
The outer glass should be cleaned with a specific glass and mirror cleaner. Soapy water will work to remove stains and but may leave streaks. Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaners on aluminium door frame components, if in doubt contact Glem Gas for advice.

Removal of Side Shelf Supports – All models
The sides racks are removed by simply flexing the bottom rail off the support and unhooking at the top. To replace just reverse the procedure.

Grill Element/Top Element
This element must never be sprayed with any detergents. A damp cloth and a bottle brush can be used to clean the roof of the oven and the element itself. Never soak the element and always dry it after cleaning as not doing so can lead to deterioration. It is important to clean this area regularly as fats spit up and stick to the ceiling and element while grilling and they may burn, smoke and give out unpleasant odours.

INSTALLATION – ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
AN ELECTRIC WIRING DIAGRAM IS PERMANENTLY FIXED TO THE REAR OF THE COOKER
Before connecting the plug into the power socket, follow these instructions:

• The electrical supply for the upright cooker must be a 240 Volt 50 Hz.
• The fuse and electrical wiring of the dwelling must support the load of the appliance.
• The 3-pin plug, used to connect the electricity, must be easily reached when the cooker is in its installed position.
• The upright cooker must be earthed. Connect the upright cooker to a properly earthed and rated power socket, as appropriate.
• The flexible cord of the upright cooker must not be subject to direct heat and must be positioned after installation so that its temperature does not exceed 75°C.

IMPORTANT: If a power socket needs to be installed or relocated, the work must be done by a licensed electrician. In New Zealand the cooker must be connected to the supply by a supply cord fitted with an appropriately rated plug that is compatible with the socket-outlet fitted to the final sub-circuit in the fixed wiring that is intended to supply the cooking range.

INSTALLATION – GAS CONNECTION

• These technical instructions have been prepared for use by Authorised persons.

• THIS APPLIANCE MUST ONLY BE INSTALLED BY AN AUTHORISED PERSON –

• PROOF IS REQUIRED FOR WARRANTY SERVICE CLAIMS.

• The cooker has been manufactured with Natural Gas injectors fitted. For use with LPG the cooker must be converted. An LPG conversion kit is supplied with every new cooker. Information on converting the cooker is included with these instructions.

• The requirements of the local gas and electrical authorities must be adhered to, consult

• AS/NZS5601 as appropriate.

• Gas inlet fitting is 1/2” BSP (male) thread. This appliance can be connected with rigid pipe as specified in AS/NZS5601 table 4.1. This appliance is approved for hose connection in compliance with AS5601, clause 6.10.1.9. The flexible hose must comply with AS/NZS1869 (AGA

• Approved), 10mm ID, class B or D, between 1 – 1.2 m long and in accordance with AS/NZS5601 for a high level connection. The hose should not be subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and should be able to be inspected along its entire length. Unions’ compatible with the hose fittings must be used and all connections tested for gas leaks.

• The fixed consumer gas supply outlet should be at approximately the same height as the cooker connection point, pointing downwards and
  approximately 150 mm to the side of the cooker. The hose should be clear of the floor when the cooker is in the installed position. Ensure that the safety chain is installed correctly so that the chain prevents strain on the hose connections when the cooker is pulled forward.

• If the connection is for natural gas the test point pressure should be adjusted to 1.00 kPa with the wok burner operating at maximum.

Gas Connection
If installing for use with LPG ensure that an AGA approved gas regulator suitable for a supply pressure of 2.75 kPa is part of the tank supply and the test point pressure is adjusted to 2.75 kPa.

• There is an LPG conversion kit supplied with the cooker.
• It is recommended that an isolating valve and union be fitted, to enable simple disconnection for servicing. These are to be in an accessible location.
• Check connections are gas tight with soapy water or other approved method.
• Under no circumstances use a naked flame in checking for leaks.
• Check Gas Adjustments (refer installation – gas checks and adjustments).

REGULATOR PLACEMENT – We strongly advise to locate the Natural Gas regulator close to the gas inlet and away from the heat of the cooker. Regulator failure due to heat exposure is not covered under warranty. When satisfied that the upright cooker is operating correctly, instruct the customer in its safe operation. Ensure the customer understands fully by having them operate the upright cooker in all its functions.

CONVERSION TO OPERATE ON ULPG

• This must be done by a licensed Gas Fitter. COMPULSORY REQUIREMENT
• Included with the cooker is a conversion kit for converting the cooker to operate on ULPG (LPG in Aust.). The kit consists of replacement injectors for all burners, including oven burner for gas models. The kit also includes a test point for checking gas pressure and a replacement label identifying the type of gas the cooker is connected to.
• There is no gas regulator requirement for ULPG installations as the gas pressure of 2.75 Kpa is regulated at the bottle.
• A 7 mm socket is needed to remove and replace the injectors. The data plate in this instruction manual identifies the injector size for each burner.
• Each burner must be run on the minimum flame setting and adjusted accordingly to ensure that the minimum flame is not extinguished by air drafts.

ALL CONVERSIONS TO ULPG MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A LICENSED GAS FITTER. GLEM GAS WARRANTY SERVICE WILL NOT BE MADE ON INCORRECTLY CONVERTED APPLIANCES.
NOTE!

• STANDARD PLUMBERS TEFLON TAPE SHOULD NOT BE USED TO SEAL JOINTS.
• AN APPROPRIATE GAS SEALING TAPE MUST BE USED.

GAS CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS – LOW FLAME SETTING

• Check the low flame setting for each hob burner and the oven burner with the control engaged in the minimum position.

Cooktop Burner –
Turn the control until it engages in the minimum position and remove the control knob. Insert a screwdriver in the adjusting screw (located to the side of the gascock shaft). To increase the flame, turn the adjusting screw anticlockwise. To decrease the flame, turn the adjusting screw clockwise. Adjust for a minimum, stable and clear flame.
ENSURE THE MINIMUM FLAME WILL NOT BE EXTINGUISHED BY AIR DRAUGHTS.
Oven Burner –
Light the oven burner and operate at maximum for 15 minutes. Turn the control until it engages in the minimum position and remove the control knob. Insert a screwdriver in the adjusting screw (located to the left side of the thermostat shaft). To increase the flame, turn the adjusting screw anticlockwise. To decrease the flame, turn the adjusting screw clockwise. Adjust for a minimum, stable and clear flame. Ensure the minimum flame will not be extinguished when the oven door is closed.

FINAL CHECK

Operate all cooker burners on high and low flames and check that each burner ignites properly and has a stable flame. The following may be considered to be abnormal:

• If the burners have yellow tipping.
• If the pots are sooting up underneath.
• If the burners are extinguished by opening and closing the oven door.
• If the burners fail to ignite properly.
• If the burners fail to remain alight.
• If the electrodes constantly click when burners are alight.
• When satisfied with the operation of the cooker, please explain to the user the correct method of operation. If the cooker fails to operate correctly, contact your local service agent.

Gas checks and adjustments -igniter operation

• Check that the igniter for each burner successfully ignites the gas and that the burner remains alight. If an igniter fails to work or a burner fails to remain alight, first remove the plug from the electrical power outlet, and then check that all the electrical connections are in place.
• If the cooker fails to operate correctly, call Glem Gas or their appointed agent for service.
• Do not attempt repairs yourself.

Gas checks and adjustments -pressure adjustment
First shut off the gas to the appliance. Remove the sealing screw from the regulator test point at the rear of the cooker and attach the hose from the manometer to the point. Turn the gas back and light the largest burner and smallest burner at the maximum setting. Check the pressure and adjust at the regulator if necessary to the settings in the table or on the data plate. For propane gas adjust at the regulator at the cylinder. Turn regulator adjusting screw clockwise to increase pressure and anti clockwise to reduce pressure. Refit the test point sealing screw when finished.

QUICK REFERENCE FAULT FINDING CHART
GAS COOKTOP
Burner does not stay alight after several attempts

1. Check that the burner is correctly assembled. Sometimes the parts get misaligned and that interrupts correct gas flow.
2. Make sure the gas supply is turned on.
3. Make sure that the burner is dry and clean.
4. Ensure there is nothing blocking the gas inlet on the burner or the slots in the flame spreader.
5. Try to light the burner using a match, this will identify if it is an ignition fault.

Burner will not stay alight

1. Check that the burner is correctly assembled.
2. There is a thermocouple valve on each burner. It is a tapered copper point. If the thermocouple is faulty the flame will not stay alight once you release the control knob. Hold the knob in for a few seconds to make sure that the thermocouple reaches temperature.

The ignitor does not spark

1. While it is not always possible to see the spark there is a clicking sound when the ignitor is operating.
2. Make sure the ignitor is clean and dry (this is the cylindrical white point at the edge of the burner)
3. Make sure that the burner is correctly assembled.
4. Make sure that the electricity is turned on.
5. The flame suddenly looks different
6. This usually means that the burner is not assembled correctly.

Flames are huge, difficult to light and sooty
Cooktop injectors are incorrect and have to be changed to suit the gas type.

GAS OVEN
Oven won’t light

1. Make sure the gas supply is turned on and the knob turned to maximum temperature
2. Make sure the oven door is open
3. Make sure that the electricity is connected and turned on
4. Get the electronic ignition sparking before turning on the gas, this is the best way to encourage the burner to light.
5. Try to light the oven manually to check if the problem is electronic ignition related

Oven won’t stay alight
Once the oven is lit hold the control knob in for 20 seconds to heat the thermocouple which will maintain the flame.
Oven fills with black soot after lighting
The oven injector is incorrect and has not been changed to ULPG specification.

ALL OVENS
Cooling fan operating after cooking
The cooling fan continues to operate even after the cooking cycle has finished. It will stop automatically once the cooker has cooled.
