Peculiar Smells
When you first use your cooker it may give off an odour. This should stop after use.
Before using for the first time, make sure that all packing materials have been removed and then, to dispel manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 200 °C and run for at least an hour.
Before using the grill for the first time you should also turn on the grill and run for 30 minutes with the grill pan in position, pushed fully back and the grill door open.
Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air (see ‘Ventilation’ below). People with respiratory or allergy problems should vacate the area for this brief period.
Cooling Fan
This appliance may have a cooling fan. When the grill or ovens are in operation the fan will run to cool the fascia and control knobs.
Ventilation
The use of a cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Therefore, make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a powered cookerhood that vents outside. If you have several hotplates/burners on, or use the cooker for a long time, open a window or turn on an extractor fan
Maintenance

• It is recommended that this appliance is serviced annually.

• WARNING: Before replacing the oven lamp, turn off the power supply and make sure that the oven is cool.

• DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap the edges.

• Unless specified otherwise in this guide, always allow the cooker to cool and then switch it off at the mains before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work.

• DO NOT use the control knobs to manoeuvre the cooker.

• NEVER operate the cooker with wet hands.

• DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a glove – it might catch fire if brought into contact with a hot surface.

• DO NOT use hotplate protectors, foil or hotplate covers of any description. These may affect the safe use of your hotplate burners and are potentially hazardous to health.

• NEVER heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up may make the containers burst and cause injury.

• DO NOT use unstable saucepans. Always make sure that you position the handles away from the edge of the hotplate.

• NEVER leave the hotplate unattended at high heat settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking, and greasy spills may catch on fire. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent fat overheating beyond the smoking point.
  WARNING: Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or oil can be dangerous and may result in fire.
  NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off the appliance and then cover the flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.

• NEVER leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should be only one third full of fat.

• WARNING: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking surfaces.

• NEVER try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them together before heating, or as the fats melt.

• Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills or overheating of foods when frying at high or medium high temperatures.

• DO NOT use the top of the flue (the slot along the back of the cooker) for warming plates, dishes, drying tea towels or softening butter.

• DO NOT use water on grease fires and never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off and then smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If available, use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

• DO NOT modify this appliance. This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external timer or separated remote-control system.

• If flammable materials are stored in the drawer, oven(s) or grill(s) it may explode and result in fire or property damage.

Oven Care

• When the oven is not in use and before attempting to clean the cooker always be certain that the control knobs are in the OFF position.
• Use oven gloves to protect your hand from potential burns.
• Cooking high moisture content foods can create a ‘steam burst’ when the oven door is opened (Fig. 1.1). When opening the oven, stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
• The inside door face is constructed with toughened safety glass. Take care NOT to scratch the surface when cleaning the glass panel.
• Accidental damage may cause the door glass panel to fracture.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
• DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
• Make sure the shelves are pushed firmly to the back of the oven. DO NOT close the door against the oven shelves.
• DO NOT use aluminium foil to cover shelves, linings or the oven roof.
• When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the oven door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the control knobs may become very hot.
• DO NOT use the timed oven if the adjoining oven is already warm.
• DO NOT place warm food in the oven to be timed.
• DO NOT use a timed oven that is already warm.
• Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp gloves might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface.

Oven Shelves (dependant on model)
To fit a shelf to the telescopic runners, slide the telescopic runners forward, until they stop. Holding the shelf above the runners, tilt the front downward and locate into the front of the runners. Lay the shelf flat. Press on the rear of the shelf to secure in place.
See “Accessories” section for details.
Standard oven shelves can be fitted by lining up the shelf with a groove in the oven ladders. Push the shelf back until the ends hit the shelf stop. Lift the front so the shelf clears the stops, then lower the front so the shelf is level and push it fully back.
Cooker Care
As steam can condense to water droplets on the cool outer trim of the oven, it may be necessary during cooking to wipe away any moisture with a soft cloth. This will also help to prevent soiling and discolouration of the oven exterior by cooking vapours.
Self-Clean Oven

• WARNING: Remove all cookware, shelves, and the shelf supports from the oven before using the self-clean function.
• WARNING: Using the self-cleaning function results in higher temperatures than those for normal cooking. Under such conditions the surfaces may get hotter than usual so children should be kept away.
• Pre-clean any areas that are not reached by the self-clean cycle, such as the outer edges of the oven door. Wipe up any excess fat or liquids.

Cleaning

• Isolate the electricity supply before carrying out any thorough cleaning. Allow the cooker to cool.
• In the interests of hygiene and safety, the cooker should be kept clean at all times as a build up in fats and other food stuff could result in a fire.
• Clean only the parts listed in this guide.
• Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• NEVER use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.
• DO NOT mix different cleaning products – they may react together with hazardous results.
• All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy water.
• Take care that no water seeps into the appliance.
• Before you remove any of the grill parts for cleaning, make sure that they are cool or use oven gloves.
• DO NOT use any abrasive substances on the grill and grill parts.
• DO NOT put the side runners in a dishwasher.
• DO NOT put the burner heads in a dishwasher.
• NEVER use caustic or abrasive cleaners as these will damage the surface.
• DO NOT use steel wool, oven cleaning pads or any other materials that will scratch the surface.
• NEVER store flammable materials in the drawer. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plastic ware and towels, as well as flammable liquids.
• DO NOT store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the appliance.
• DO NOT use steel wool, oven cleaning pads, or any other materials that will scratch the surface.
• DO NOT attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on, otherwise an electric shock could result.

Overview

The dual fuel single cavity cooker (Fig. 2.1) has the following features:
A. 5 hotplate burners including a wok burner
B. Control panel incorporating a timer
C. Multifunction oven
D. Storage drawer Hotplate burners
The drawing by each of the central knobs indicates which burner that knob controls.
Each burner has a Flame Supervision Device (FSD) that prevents the flow of gas if the flame goes out.
When the igniter button is pressed in, sparks will be made at every burner – this is normal. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean around any burner while another burner is on, otherwise an electric shock could result.
To light a burner, push in and turn the associated control knob to the high position as indicated by the large flame symbol ( ), (Fig. 2.2).
The igniter should spark and light the gas. Keep holding the knob pressed in to let the gas through to the burner for about ten seconds.
If, when you let go of the control knob, the burner goes out, then the FSD has not been bypassed. Turn the control knob to the OFF position and wait for one minute before you try again, this time making sure to hold in the control knob for slightly longer.
Adjust the flame height to suit by turning the control knob counter-clockwise (Fig. 2.3).If a burner flame goes out, turn off the control knob and leave it for one minute before relighting it.
Make sure that the flames are under the pans. For safety reasons, adjust the flames so that they do not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil. Using a lid will help the contents boil more quickly (Fig. 2.4).Large pans should be spaced well apart.
Pans and kettles with concave bases or down-turned base rims should not be used (Fig. 2.5).Simmering aids, such as asbestos or mesh mats, are NOT recommended (Fig. 2.6). They will reduce burner performance and could damage the pan supports.
You should also avoid using unstable and misshapen pans that may tilt easily, and pans with a very small base diameter, e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers (Fig. 2.7).
The minimum recommended pan diameter is 120 mm. The maximum allowable pan base diameter is 260 mm. For a pan diameter of 120 mm, or less, use the additional pan support trivet supplied (Fig. 2.8).
DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap the edges.
Wok burner
The wok burner is designed to provide even heat over a large area. It is ideal for large pans and stir-frying (Fig. 2.9).For heating smaller pans, the aforementioned hotplate burners may be more efficient.
You should wipe the enamel top surface of the cooker around the hotplate burners as soon as possible after spills occur. Try to wipe them off while the enamel is still warm.
Note: The use of aluminium pans may cause metallic marking of the pan supports. This does not affect the durability of the enamel and may be cleaned off with an appropriate metal cleaner.
Wok cradle
The wok cradle is designed to fit a 35 cm wok. If you use a different wok, make sure that it fits the cradle. Woks vary very widely in size and shape. It is important that the wok sits down on the pan support – however, if the wok is too small, the cradle will not support it properly (Fig. 2.10).The cradle should be used on the wok burner only. When you fit the cradle, check that it is properly located and that the wok is supported properly on a pan support (Fig. 2.11).The cradle will get very hot in use – allow plenty of time for it to cool before you pick it up.
Griddle
The griddle fits the left-hand well, front to back (Fig. 2.12). It is designed for cooking food on directly. DO NOT use pans of any kind on it. The griddle surface is non-stick and metal cooking utensils (e.g. spatulas) will damage the surface. Use heat resistant plastic or wooden utensils. Do not put it crossways – it will not fit properly and will be unstable.
Do not put it on any other burner – it is not designed to fit in any of the other cooker wells.
Remove the left-hand pan support. Position the griddle over the well. Check that it is securely located.
The griddle can be lightly brushed with cooking oil before use. Light the hotplate burners. Adjust the flame heights to suit.
Preheat the griddle for a maximum of 5 minutes before adding food. Leaving it longer may cause damage. Turn the control knobs towards the low position, marked with the small flame symbol, to reduce the burner flames.
Always leave space around the griddle for the gases to escape.
After cooking, allow the griddle to cool before cleaning.
If the griddle is washed in a dishwasher then some dishwasher residue may appear on the back. This is normal and will not affect the performance of your griddle.
Multifunction oven
The oven is a multifunction oven (Fig. 2.13). In addition to convection elements around the fans, it is fitted with extra heating elements, in the top of the oven and under the oven base. Take care to avoid touching the top elements when placing or removing items from the oven.The multi-function oven has 3 main cooking functions: fan, fan assisted and conventional cooking. These functions should be used to complete most of your cooking.
The browning element and base heat can be used in the latter part of the cooking process to fine tune the results to your particular requirements.
Use fanned grilling for all your grilling needs and defrost to safely thaw small items of frozen food.
Table 2.1 gives a summary of the multifunction modes.
The multifunction oven has many varied uses. We suggest you keep a careful eye on your cooking until you are familiar with each function. Remember, not all functions will be suitable for all food types.

Table 2.1
Multifunction oven modes (Fig. 2.14)
Defrost
This function operates the fan(s) to circulate cold air only. Make sure the temperature control is at 0°C and that no heat is applied. This enables small items such as desserts, cream cakes and pieces of meat, fish and poultry to be defrosted.
Defrosting in this way speeds up the process and protects the food from contamination. Pieces of meat, fish and poultry should be placed on a shelf, over a tray to catch any drips. Be sure to wash the shelf and tray after defrosting.
Defrost with the oven door closed. Defrosting should not be carried out in a warm oven. Large items, such as whole chickens and meat roasts should not be defrosted in this way.
We recommend this be carried out in a refrigerator.
Make sure that dairy foods, meat and poultry are completely defrosted before cooking.
Fan oven
This function operates the fans and the heating element around them. An even heat is produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts quickly.
Fan oven cooking is particularly suitable for multi-shelf cooking and is a good ‘all-round’ function. It may be necessary to reduce the temperature by approximately 10 °C for recipes previously cooked in a conventional oven.
If you wish to preheat the oven, wait until the indicator light has gone out before inserting the food.
Fanned grilling
This function operates the fan while the top element is on. It produces a more even, less fierce heat than a conventional grill. For best results place the food to be grilled on the pan provided. Thick pieces of meat or fish are ideal for cooking in this way, as the circulated air reduces the fierceness of the heat from the grill. The oven door should be kept closed while cooking is in progress, so saving 0energy. You will also find that the food needs to be watched and turned less than for normal grilling. Preheat this function before cooking.
Note: When grilling full width, to allow sufficient access for tending foods we recommend placing the grill pan tray support on the second from top level.
Fan assisted oven
This function operates the fans, circulating air heated by the elements at the top and the base of the oven.
The combination of fan and conventional cooking (Top and Base Heat) makes this function ideal for cooking large items that need thorough cooking, such as a large meat roast. It is also possible to bake on two shelfs at one time, although they will need to be changed over during the cooking time, as the heat at the top of the oven is greater than at the base, when using this function.
This is a fast intensive form of cooking; keep an eye on the food cooking until you are familiar with this function.
Conventional oven (Top and Base Heat)
This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits.
Food cooked on the top shelf will brown and crisp faster than on the lower shelf, because the heat is greater at the top of the oven than at the base, as in ‘Fan Assisted Oven’ function.
Similar items being cooked will need to be swapped around for even cooking. This means that foods requiring different temperatures can be cooked together, using the cooler zone in the lower half of the oven and hotter area to the top.
The exposed top element may cook some foods too quickly, so we recommend that the food be positioned in the lower half of the oven to cook. The oven temperature may also need to be lowered.
Browning element
This function uses the element in the top of the oven only. It is a useful function for the browning or finishing of pasta dishes, vegetables in sauce and lasagne, the item to be browned being already hot before switching to the top element.
Base heat
This function uses the base element only. It will crisp up your pizza or quiche base or finish off cooking the base of a pastry case on a lower shelf. It is also a gentle heat, good for slow cooking of casseroles in the middle of the oven or for plate warming.
The Browning and Base Heat functions are useful additions to your oven, giving you flexibility to finish off items to perfection. With use, you will soon realise how these functions can combine to extend your cooking skills.
Energy saving panel
The oven has a divider feature (Fig. 2.15). With this in place only one half of the oven is heated and only the right-hand side elements are used. This saves energy and is ideal for cooking most foods. When using the divider, condensation may appear in the left-hand oven – this is normal.For very large loads, or large dishes for special occasions then the divider can be removed. This brings into use the elements on the left-hand side as well as those on the right when a function is selected.
All oven functions are available in full and divided forms and shelves are provided for use in both forms.
Warning!
Take great care when removing the divider not to scratch the inner glass door surface. Scratches in the glass can cause stress and may cause the door to fail.
Removing the divider
Make sure the cooker is cool before attempting to remove the divider.
Fully open the door and remove the oven shelves. When removing the divider, tilt it slightly upwards and grip the underside to prevent the metal base making contact with the door glass (Fig. 2.16 and Fig. 2.17).We recommend that you place a tea towel or similar on the door glass before removing the divider. This should prevent the door inner from scratching.
DO NOT place or slide metallic objects, including cookware, on the door glass as this may cause scratching and subsequent failure to occur.
Operating the oven
The multifunction oven has two controls: a function selector and a temperature setting knob (Fig. 2.18).
Turn the function selector control to a cooking function. Fig. 2.19 shows the control set for convectional oven cooking. Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature you need. The oven heating light will glow until the oven has reached the temperature you selected. It will then cycle on and off during cooking as the oven maintains the selected temperature (Fig. 2.20). Accessories
Oven Shelves
Each cooker is supplied with:

• 2x full capacity shelf with telescopic runners (Fig. 2.21)
• 1x full capacity grill pan shelf with telescopic runners (Fig. 2.22)
• 2x grill pan and trivet (Fig. 2.23)
• 3x energy saving shelves (Fig. 2.24)
• 1x divider (Fig. 2.25)
• 2 left hand and 2 right hand ladder side supports (Fig. 2.27)

The oven shelves are retained when pulled forward but can be easily removed and refitted.
To Remove and Fit a Shelf to the Side Supports
The shelf has a small kink on either side. To remove the shelf, line these up with the stops in the shelf support (Fig. 2.27). Lift the rear of the shelf upward so that it will pass over the shelf stop and then pull it forward (Fig. 2.28 and Fig. 2.29).Refit in the reverse order, making sure to push it fully back.
To Fit the Telescopic Shelf Runners
With the runner arm in the closed position locate the opening of the upper rear slot onto the side support (Fig. 2.30). DO NOT locate any further than the opening at this point.Lift the front of the runner arm to locate the front slot against the side support (Fig. 2.30).
Push the runner arm towards the rear of the oven. The catch at the front will lift and drop to secure the runner arm in place (Fig. 2.30).
To Fit a Shelf to the Telescopic Shelf Runners
Slide the telescopic runners forward until they stop. Holding the shelf above the runners, tilt the front downward and locate into the front of the runners. Lay the shelf flat. Press on the rear of the shelf to secure in place.
To Remove a Shelf from the Telescopic Shelf Runners
Slide the shelf out on the runners. While holding one of the runners securely, carefully lift the rear of the shelf upwards: the shelf will spring clear of the central restraining tab. Repeat for the opposite side of the shelf.
NOTE: To aid the removal of the shelf you can insert a suitable flat tool through the opening in the side of the runners and lever the shelf clear (Fig. 2.31).Tilt the front of the shelf downwards and then lift clear of the runners (Fig. 2.32).
To Remove the Telescopic Shelf Runners
Firstly, remove the shelf as in the ‘To Remove a Shelf from the Telescopic Shelf Runners’ section.
Place a finger on the underside of the telescopic runner and lift.
Open the catch on top of the runner and pull the runner forward and down to remove.
Oven Light
Press the appropriate button to turn on the oven lights (Fig. 2.33).If one of the oven lights fail, turn off the cooker circuit breaker before you change the bulb. See the ‘Troubleshooting’ section for details on how to change an oven light bulb.

Cooking tips

Cooking with a multifunction oven
Remember: not all modes are suitable for all food types. The oven cooking times given are intended for a guide only.
Tips on cooking with the timer
If you want to cook more than one dish, choose dishes that require approximately the same cooking time. However, dishes can be ‘slowed down’ slightly by using small containers and covering them with aluminium foil, or ‘speeded up’ slightly by cooking smaller quantities or placing them in larger containers.
Very perishable foods such as pork or fish should be avoided if a long delay period is planned, especially in hot weather.
DO NOT place warm food in the oven to be timed.
DO NOT use a timed oven that is already warm.
Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted before being placed in the oven. Check that meat and poultry are fully cooked before serving.
General oven tips
The wire shelves should always be pushed firmly to the back of the oven.
Baking trays with food cooking on them should be placed level with the front edge of the oven’s wire shelves. Other containers should be placed centrally. Keep all trays and containers away from the back of the oven, as overbrowning of the food may occur.
When the oven is on, do not leave the door open for longer than necessary, otherwise the knobs may get very hot.

• Always leave a “finger’s width” between dishes on the same shelf. This allows the heat to circulate freely around them.
• To reduce fat splashing when you add vegetables to hot fat around a roast, dry them thoroughly or brush lightly with cooking oil.
• Where dishes may boil and spill over during cooking, place them on a baking tray.
• Sufficient heat rises out of the right-hand oven while cooking to warm plates in the left-hand oven.
• If you want to brown the base of a pastry dish, preheat the baking tray for 15 minutes before placing the dish in the centre of the tray.

Cleaning your cooker

Isolate the electricity supply before carrying out any major cleaning. Allow the cooker to cool.
NEVER use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt.
DO NOT mix different cleaning products – they may react together with hazardous results.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy water – but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.
Remember to switch the electricity supply back on and reset the clock before reusing the cooker.
Daily care
Cleaning the cooker is not a welcomed chore, but it has to be done to maintain efficiency and appearance. Remember it is better to wipe up any spills as they occur, this will prevent them burning on and becoming more difficult to remove later.
Make sure the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the cooker is unobstructed – for example by build-up of fats or grease.
On Natural gas the burners flames should be a bluish colour with, at most, a slight yellowish fringe.
On LP gas the flames may be “softer”. The cooktop burner flames may have a slight yellowish tip.
If the flame burns with a long white tip you should call for service.
Cleaning for spills
For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, turn off the burner as soon as possible and allow it to cool. Do not clean until the area is completely cooled down. Wipe up spills as soon as possible.
DO NOT allow surplus water to seep into the cooker.
Hotplate burners
The burner heads and caps can be removed for cleaning.
DO NOT put the burner heads in a dishwasher.
Make sure they are absolutely dry before replacing.
The single ring burners
When refitting the burner head, make sure that the notch lines up with the electrode or hole in the base. Check that the burner head is level and that the cap is fitted centrally on the burner head (Fig. 7.1).
The wok burner
When reassembling the wok burner (Fig. 7.2) turn over the large base ring and find the ‘D’ shaped area (Fig. 7.3). Turn the head until the ‘D’ matches the one on the burner base. Flip the burner over once again and place it on the burner base.Check the burner slots are not blocked. If a blockage occurs, remove stubborn particles using a toothbrush (Fig. 7.4). Now fit the two burner caps, making sure that they are seated properly.
Check the burner ports are not blocked. If a blockage occurs, remove stubborn particles using a piece of fuse wire.
Griddle
Always clean the griddle after use. Allow it to cool completely before removing. Immerse the griddle plate in hot soapy water. Use a soft cloth or, for stubborn stains, a nylon washing up brush.
If the griddle is washed in a dishwasher then some dishwasher residue may appear on the back. This is normal and will not affect the performance of your griddle.
The wok cradle
Recommended cleaning materials are hot soapy water, a moistened soap pad, cream cleaner or nylon scourer.
Oven and divider
Clean the oven and divider with a proprietary oven cleaner, suitable for enamel.
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning the divider make sure to remove the silicon sealing strip from the front edge – some oven cleaners can damage the seal.
Remove the strip by gently pulling both ends to release the hooks holding it in place.
Control panel and oven doors
Avoid using any abrasive cleaners including cream cleaners. For best results use liquid detergents.
The control panel and control knobs should only be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water – but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.
Wipe with a clean dampened cloth then polish with a dry cloth. The oven doors should only be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water.
Removing the oven door outer panel
The outer door panel can be removed so that the inside of the glass can be cleaned. Open the door and remove the 2 screws in the inside face (Fig. 7.5). With the door closed, remove the 3 screws in the underside of the door. Using the handle, carefully lift the door away.
Refit in reverse.
Cleaning table
Cleaners listed (Table 7.1) are available from supermarkets or electrical retailers as stated.
For enamelled surfaces use a cleaner that is approved for use on vitreous enamel.
Regular cleaning is recommended. For easier cleaning, wipe up any spillages immediately.

Troubleshooting

Hotplate ignition or hotplate burners faulty
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated?
If not, there maybe something wrong with the power supply.
Are the sparker (ignition electrode) or burner slots blocked by debris?
Are the burner trim and caps correctly located? See the section on ‘Cleaning’?
Hotplate burners will not light
Make sure that the burner parts have been replaced correctly after wiping or removing for cleaning.
Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can do this by making sure that other gas appliances you may have are working.
Do the burners spark when you push the control?
If not, verify that the power is on by checking that the clock is illuminated.
Steam is coming from the oven
When cooking foods with high water content (e.g. oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille.
Take care when opening the oven door, as there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened.
Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
What cleaning materials are recommended for the cooker?
See the ‘Cleaning’ section for recommended cleaning materials.
Never use caustic or abrasive cleaners as these will damage the surface.
An oven fan is noisy
The note of the oven fan may change as the oven heats up – this is perfectly normal.
The knobs get hot when I use the oven. Can I avoid this?
Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven and heating them up. Do not leave the oven door open.
The fascia gets hot when I use the oven
The cooker is cooled by a fan. If the fascia becomes excessively hot when the cooker is in use then the cooling fan may have failed. Should this occur please contact your installer, a qualified repair engineer or Customer Service to arrange for its repair.
If there is an installation problem and I don’t get my original installer to come back to fix it who pays?
You do. Service organisations will charge for their call outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original installer.
It is in your interest to track down your original installer.
Power failure
In the event of a failure in the electrical supply, remember to reset the clock to make sure that the timed oven continues to operate.
Poor performance
In the unlikely event that, after installation, the appliance does not perform correctly please contact your distributor (see “Service and Spares” on page 24).
Food is cooking too slowly, too quickly, or burning
Cooking times may differ from your previous oven.
Check that you are using the recommended temperatures, shelf positions and tray sizes – see the oven cooking guide.
The oven control settings and cooking times are intended to be used only as a guide.
Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered either way, to get the results you want.
The oven is not cooking evenly
Do not use a baking tray with dimensions larger than those specified in the section on ‘General Oven Tips’.
If you are cooking a large item, be prepared to turn it round during cooking.
If two shelves are used, check that space has been left for the heat to circulate. When a baking tray is put into the oven, make sure that it is placed centrally on the shelf.
Check that the door seal is not damaged and that the door catch is adjusted so that the door is held firmly against the seal.
A dish of water when placed on the shelf should be the same depth all over. (For example, if it is deeper at the back, then the back of the cooker should be raised up or the front lowered.) If the cooker is not level arrange for your supplier to level it for you.
Oven not coming on
Is the power on? Is the clock illuminated? If not, there may be something wrong with the power supply.
Is the cooker supply on at the isolator switch?
Has the time of day been set?
The timed oven is not coming on when automatic cooking
Has the oven knob been left in the OFF position by mistake?
Is the oven locked (see above)?
Oven temperature getting hotter as the cooker gets older
If turning the temperature down using the oven control knob has not worked, or has only worked for a short time, then you may need a new thermostat. This should be fitted by a service person.
Oven lights are not working
The bulb has probably burnt out. You can buy a replacement bulb (which is not covered under the warranty) from a good electrical shop.
Ask for a 40 W – 230 V halogen lamp (G9) (Fig. 7.1). Turn off the power at the circuit breaker.
Before removing the existing bulb, turn off the power supply and make sure that the oven is cool. Open the oven door and remove the oven shelves.
Remove the bulb cover by turning it a quarter turn, counterclockwise. It may be very stiff (Fig. 7.2). Pull the existing bulb to remove it. When handling the replacement bulb, avoid touching the glass with your fingers, as oils from your hands can cause premature failure. Push, click in the replacement bulb.
Screw back the bulb cover. Turn on the circuit breaker and check that the bulb now lights.

8. Spirit level
9. Pencil
10. Adjustable spanner
11. 13 mm spanner or socket wrench
12. Screws for fitting the restraining chain and stability bracket

Checking the parts: Positioning the cooker
The diagram (Fig. 9.1) shows the minimum recommended distance from the cooker to nearby surfaces as given in AS/NZS 5601.
Where the appliance is installed next to cabinetry, the cabinet material must be capable of withstanding 70°C. If this appliance is installed near vinyl wrapped surfaces, use an installation kit available from the vinyl-wrap supplier. Falcon cannot accept any responsibility for damage caused due to installation into cabinets with low temperature tolerances.  Any splashback must be fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Allowance should be made for the additional height of the flue trim, which is fitted to the cooker hob.

1. Overhead – Measurement A
   The minimum height of any surface above the top of the pan supports of the cooker is 650mm, for the full width and depth of the hob. Cookerhoods and exhaust fans shall be installed in
   accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. However, in no case shall the clearance between the top of the pan supports of the cooking appliance and a cookerhood be less than 650 mm or, for an overhead exhaust fan, 750 mm.

2. Side Clearances – Measurements B & C
   Where B, measured from the periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical combustible surface, or vertical combustible surface covered with toughened glass or sheet metal, is less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected to make sure that the combustible surface does not exceed 65 °C above ambient. Even with the surface protected, the dimension B should not be less than 135 mm above hotplate level.
   The fixing of 5mm thick ceramic tiles to the surface, or attaching fire resistant material to the surface and covering with sheet metal with a minimum thickness of 0.4 mm to a height C of not less than 150 mm above the hotplate, should satisfy this requirement.

3. Side Clearances – Measurement D & E
   Where D, the distance from the periphery of the nearest burner to a horizontal combustible surface is less than 200mm, then E shall be 10mm or more, or the horizontal surface shall be above the pan supports.
   DO NOT place the cooker on a base.
   For safety reasons, curtains,must not be fitted immediately behind the cooker.
   We recommend a gap of 910 mm between units to allow for moving the cooker. Do not box the cooker in – it must still be  ossible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and servicing.

Moving the cooker
On no account try and move the cooker while it is plugged into the electricity supply.
The cooker is very heavy, so take great care.
We recommend that two people manoeuvre the cooker.
Make sure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed, to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker around.
To help you, there are two levelling rollers at the back, and two screw-down levelling feet at the front.
Remove the polystyrene base pack. From the front, tilt the cooker backwards and remove the front half of the polystyrene base (Fig. 9.2). Repeat from the back and remove the rear half of the polystyrene base. Removing the oven door
To remove the oven door, open the door fully. Swivel the locking ‘U’ clips forward to the locking position (Fig. 9.3). Grip the sides of the door, lift upwards and then slide the door forwards (Fig. 9.4). Lowering the two rear rollers
To adjust the height of the rear of the cooker, first fit a 13 mm spanner or socket wrench onto the hexagonal adjusting nut (Fig. 9.5). Rotate the nut – clockwise to raise – counter-clockwise to lower. Make 10 complete (360°) turns clockwise.
Make sure you lower BOTH REAR ROLLERS.
Completing the move
Unfold the rear edge of the pack base tray. Grip the fascia panel and lift the front of the cooker slightly.
Carefully push the cooker backwards off the pack base.
Remove the pack base. Position the cooker close to its final position, leaving just enough space to get behind it.
DO NOT use the control knobs to manoeuvre the cooker.
Levelling
You are recommended to use a spirit level on a shelf in one of the ovens to check for level.
Place the cooker in its intended position, taking care not to twist it within the gap between the kitchen units as damage may occur to the cooker or the units.
The front feet and rear rollers can be adjusted to level the cooker. To adjust the height of the rear of the cooker, turn the adjusting nuts at the front bottom corners of the cooker. To set the front feet turn the bases to raise or lower.
Fitting the stability bracket and chain
A stability bracket and chain MUST be fitted when the cooker is connected to a flexible gas supply.
Unless properly installed, the cooker could be tipped by leaning on the door. Injury might result from spilled hot liquids or from the cooker itself.
IMPORTANT: The cooker must be set to the correct height and levelled before the stability bracket is installed.
Fitting a stability bracket
When fitting a stability bracket please refer to the instructions supplied with the bracket for further details on fitting.
When fitting a stability bracket (Fig. 9.6 and Fig. 9.7) adjust the bracket to give the smallest practicable clearance between the bracket and the engagement slot in the rear of the cooker.Fit the bracket so that it engages as far as possible over the chassis of the cooker.
Caution, possibility of tilting
Anti-tip restraints
Fitting the restraining chain
The restraining chain MUST be fitted.
The length of chain between the appliance and the wall fixing should prevent strain on the gas and electricity connections, but still allow access to unhook the chain when the cooker is pull forward.
Measure the length of chain required. Use the hexagonheaded screw, washers and bolt supplied in the restraining chain kit to fix the chain to one of the holes at the top of the flue trim bracket (Fig. 9.8). Hook the other end of the chain to the wall fixing.
Gas connection
Must be in accordance with the relevant standards.
The gas supply needs to terminate with a threaded fitting ½”. The inlet connector is located just below the hotplate level at the rear of the cooker.
Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted and each connection is different it is difficult to give precise dimensions. Ideally, the house supply connection should be in the shaded area (Fig. 9.9).Means of isolation must be provided at the supply point by either an approved quick-connect device or a Type 1 manual shut-off valve.
The hose should be fitted so that both inlet and outlet connections are vertical so that the hose hangs downwards in a ‘U’ shape (Fig. 9.9).
A flexible connection is supplied with the cooker. If it is necessary to use another hose it must be to AS 1869 Class B and be suitable for your gas type.
If in doubt contact your supplier. Screw connect the threaded end of the hose into the gas inlet.
After completing the gas connection, check the cooker is gas sound with a pressure test. When checking for gas leaks do not use washing up liquid – this can corrode. Use a product specifically manufactured for leak detection.
Natural Gas
The adjustable spring loaded gas pressure regulator is preset to give a nominal pressure of 1 kPa on Natural gas. Connect to the Rp ½ inlet on the underside of the pressure regulator.
Propane
This cooker is supplied ready for use on Natural gas. A conversion kit for Propane gas is supplied with the cooker – see the ‘Conversion to Propane Gas’ section.
Pressure testing
The pressure test point is accessible on the inlet pipe at the rear. Remove the test nipple screw and fit a pressure gauge to the test point. Turn on and light two of the hotplate burners.
For Natural Gas cookers the pressure should be between 0.95kPa and 1.0kPa.
For Propane X cookers the pressure should be 2.54 kPa.
Electrical connection
This appliance must be installed by a qualified electrician to comply with with current AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules and regulations in force.
Make sure that the mains characteristics (voltage, nominal, power, etc.) match the ratings indicated on the cooker data plate.
Current Operated Earth Leakage Breakers
The combined use of your cooker and other domestic appliances may cause nuisance tripping, so we recommend that the cooker is protected on an individual RCD (Residual Current Device) or RCBO (Residual Current Breaker with Overload).
IF IN DOUBT, PLEASE CONSULT A SUITABLY QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
The cooker is preset for a single-phase earthed electrical connection. It is essential to install a multi-pole circuit breaker that completely disconnects the appliance from the mains, with a minimum contact break distance of 3 mm.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The appliance must be connected to an efficient earthing circuit. If the electricity network is not equipped with an earth connection, then it must be installed separately in compliance with local regulations.
Earthing is a safety measure required by law, and must be performed with particular care by a qualified technician, who must also check that the electricity supply characteristics are correct.
The total electrical load of the appliance is approximately 3.6 kW. The cable size used should be suitable for this load and comply with all local requirements.
Access to the mains terminal is gained by removing the electrical terminal cover box on the back panel. Connect the mains cable to the correct terminals for your electrical supply type (Fig. 9.10 and Fig. 9.11). Check that the links are correctly fitted and that the terminal screws are tight. Secure the mains cable using the cable clamp.An isolation switch shall be provided and mounted near the cooker, in a readily accessible position, in compliance with AS/NZS 3000 and/or AS/NZS 5601 as applicable for the appliance configuration.
Fixed wiring
For connection to fixed wiring, i.e. flexible conduit, remove the electrical terminal cover box on the back panel. Using the two screws, fix the strain relief bracket in position.
Fix the conduit-to-conduit mounting bracket onto the strain relief bracket. Connect the mains cable to the correct terminals for your electrical supply type (Fig. 9.12 and Fig. 9.13). Check that the links are correctly fitted and that the terminal screws are tight.Replace the electric terminal cover box; make sure that the conduit is clear of the bottom flange.
Final checks
Hotplate check
Check each burner in turn. There is a Flame Supervision Device (FSD) that stops the flow of gas to the burner if the flame goes out. For each burner, turn the control knob to the solid flame symbol. Press in the control knob. This lets gas through to the burner. Keep holding the knob pressed in and press the igniter button or light with a match. Keep holding the control knob pressed in for about 10 seconds.
If, when you let go of the control knob the burner goes out, the safety device has not held in. Wait one minute then try again this time holding the control pressed in for slightly longer.
Oven check
Turn on the oven and check that it starts to heat up. Check that the oven lights are working.
NOTE: The oven light bulb is not included in the guarantee.
Turn off the oven.
Final fitting
Fitting the plinth
Remove the 3 screws for the plinth mounts along the front bottom edge of the range (Fig. 9.14). Fasten the plinth using these screws. Customer care
