THE COOKER

MAIN OVEN AND HOTPLATE CONTROL
The Main Oven and hotplate temperatures are controlled by
the cooker thermostat control knob which is situated behind
the controls door. See section 'CONTROLS' - Page 4.
Turning the control knob clockwise increases the
temperature.
THE HOTPLATE
The single hotplate of your Stanley Brandon is graduated in
temperature. Just slide pans to a hotter or a cooler area
depending on whether boiling or simmering is required.
The hottest area is in the middle left hand side.
The hotplate temperature is also variable, depending upon
the setting used; the higher the setting then the higher the
hotplate temperature.
Made of thick cast iron, the hotplate is machined flat. In
order to ensure perfect contact and even heat distribution it
is recommended that all pans and kettles have thick
machined flat bases. Pans should also have tight fitting lids
for greatest efficiency. Keep the insulated hotplate covers
down when the hotplate is not in use to conserve heat.
Any spillage should be removed from the lids before
opening.

The positions are a guide only and can of course be altered to suit.
THE MAIN OVEN
The oven thermostat control knob is marked (OFF), then
temperature graduated (See diagram, page 4).
THE LOWER OVEN
The temperature of the cast iron Lower Oven is dependent
on the temperature in the Main Oven. As a guide it is
around half the temperature of the Main Oven for food such
as meringues, casseroles, milk puddings etc. This means
that it can be used as a cooking oven when the Main Oven
is at a higher temperature ie. over 200°C (400°F).
If the appliance is left on a high setting for a lengthy time the
Lower Oven may climb to a temperature higher than half
that of the Main Oven temperature.
THE COOKBOOK
When following the recipes, consult these Users
Instructions to ascertain details relevant to this cooker.
NOTE: SMOKE/SMELL EMITTED DURING INITIAL
USAGE.
Some parts of the cooker have been coated with a light
covering of protective oil. During initial operation of the
cooker this may cause smoke/smell to be emitted and is
normal and not a fault with the appliance, it is therefore
advisable to open doors and or windows to allow for
ventilation. Lift the lids to prevent staining the linings.
NOTE: Check that the plastic protection is removed from
the oven doors before the Stanley Brandon is lit for the first
time.
