Hob Care; Grill/Glide-Out Grill™ Care; Warming Zone Care; Cooling Fan - Rangemaster Classic Deluxe User's Manual & Installation Instructions

• 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.

Hob Care

• NEVER allow anyone to climb or stand on the hob.
• DO NOT use the hob surface as a cutting board.
• DO NOT leave utensils, foodstuffs or combustible items
on the hob when it is not in use (e.g. tea towels, frying
pans containing oil).
• DO NOT place plastic or aluminium foil, or plastic
containers on the hob.
• Always turn the control to the OFF position before
removing a pan.
• Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may damage
both the hob and pan.
Grill/Glide-out Grill™ Care
• When using the grill, make sure that the grill pan is
in position and pushed fully in, otherwise the control
knobs may become very hot.
• DO NOT leave the grill on for more than a few moments
without the grill pan underneath it, otherwise the knobs
may become hot.
• NEVER close the grill door when the grill is on.
• Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use.
Young children should be kept away.

Warming Zone Care

• NEVER attempt to cook directly on the heating zone.
• DO NOT use the heating zone surface as a cutting
board.
• DO NOT leave utensils, foodstuff or combustible items
on the heating zone when it is not in use (e.g. tea
towels, frying pans containing oil).
• DO NOT place plastic or aluminium foil, or plastic
containers, on the heating zone.
• DO NOT leave the heating zone switched on unless
being used for warming.
• DO NOT stand or rest heavy objects on the heating
zone.
Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a sharp blow or
sharp falling object (e.g. a salt cellar) might cause the surface
to crack or break (Fig. 1.2)
Should a crack appear in the surface, disconnect the
n n
cooker immediately from the supply and arrange for
its repair.
Always LIFT pans off the heating zone. Sliding pans may
cause marks and scratches (Fig. 1.3). Always turn the control
to the 'OFF' position before removing a pan.
• DO NOT place anything between the base of the pan
and the heating zone surface (e.g. asbestos mats,
aluminium foil, wok cradle).
• Take care NOT to place metallic objects such as knives,
forks, spoons and lids on the hob surface since they can
get hot.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means
of external timer or separated remote-control system.
• Avoid warming an empty pan. Doing so may damage
both the heating zone and pan.
Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, earthenware or
other glazed containers are suitable for use on the heating
zone; others may break because of the sudden change in
temperature.

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.

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.
