EOG 600 Installing the oven For your safety This oven must be installed and serviced by a competent person as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) regulations current edition. It is important that the oven is suitable for your gas supply.
EOG 600 General information To get the best results from your new oven please read these instructions carefully. You should pay particular attention to cooking times and gas mark settings as these may differ from your previous oven. You may find it necessary to adjust these until you are more familiar with the oven.
EOG 600 Ignition The grill and oven burners light automatically when you turn on the control. If, for any reason either of the burners go out, the spark ignition will automatically relight it. Please note: You can only use the grill with the door fully or partially open. You cannot use the grill when the door is closed.

EOG 600 To turn off any burner 1 Push in the control knob and turn it to the off position. This is shown by a large dot. For your safety When you are lighting any burner check that it has lit before you leave the oven.
EOG 600 The grill We suggest that you run the grill without food for approximately 5 - 10 minutes to burn off any residue from the surface. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

EOG 600 Cooking positions Most food should be cooked on the grid in the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to suit different thicknesses of food. You can place some dishes straight on the grill shelf. This is useful when you are browning the top of food such as cauliflower cheese.
Page 11
EOG 600 Dishes, tins and trays should not be placed directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur. For your safety Always remove the grill pan before attempting to adjust the shelf position. Oven gloves should be used when removing or pulling the shelf in and out.
EOG 600 The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan.

EOG 600 To check the progress of the food when using the grill you should withdraw the grill pan on the shelf to attend to food. After removing the grill pan you can rest it on a heat resistant work surface if you need to.
EOG 600 The oven For your safety Never leave the cooker unattended when the oven door is open. Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth. This will remove any dust. We suggest that you run the oven without food for 10 - 15 minutes at Gas mark 7 to burn off any residue from the surface.
EOG 600 Oven shelves The two oven shelves can be slotted into place in any of 5 positions. The top shelf position should be reserved for grilling only. For safety the shelves will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely, pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift it out.
EOG 600 Baking trays and dishes For your safety Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burner. This will damage the oven as well as the ovenware and possibly the cabinet underneath the oven. Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly.
EOG 600 Slow cooking 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.
EOG 600 Soups, casseroles and stews Do not cook casseroles over 3kg (6lb). Do not cook two (1.8kg) (2lb) casseroles on slow cook setting at the same time. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.

EOG 600 Milk and milk products, for example cream Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling. Reheating Cool left over food quickly and then put it in the fridge. Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food in the usual way or in a microwave.
