Before using the appliance Rating plate This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable). The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker.
The hob Using the hob The gas hob has different burner sizes to suit different types of cooking: To ensure maximum burner efficiency only use pots and pans with flat bases appropriate to the burner size used. Larger burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such as chips.
If you close the lid of the appliance while any of the hotplate burners are lit, the gas will go out. This is because it would be dangerous if the burners stayed on when the lid was closed. Always use the control knob to turn off a burner.
The grill CAUTION – Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away. When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the burner heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance.

Roasting chart INTERNAL TEMPERATURES – Rare : 50-60°C; Medium : 60-70°C; Well done : 70-80°C MEAT Beef/ Beef boned Mutton/Lamb Pork/Veal/Ham Chicken Turkey/Goose Duck Pheasant Rabbit The roasting temperatures and times given in the chart should be adequate for most joints, but slight adjustments may be required to allow for personal requirements and the shape and texture of the meat.
Slow cook The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. Some foods such as pastry and biscuits are not suitable for slow cooking because the temperature is too low.
Soups, casseroles and stews • Do not cook casseroles over 2.7 kg (6lb). • Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. • Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or above. • Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.
