Cooking Guidelines

Best results will be obtained by the shelf
positions in this guide. It is not necessary to
preheat the oven but advisable for a range of
dishes. The oven is capable of full temperature
in 15-20 minutes.
Most cookery books give details of the
shelf positions and gas mark settings for
each recipe. If in doubt about a recipe you
intend to use, study the recipe carefully
then find a similar dish in our guide and
use our shelf position and gas mark setting
recommendation.
Shelf positions are from the top down. When
roasting with aluminium foil care must be taken
that the foil does not impair circulation or block
the oven flue outlet.
Do's and don'ts
Do read the user instructions carefully before
using the appliance for the first time.
Do allow the oven to heat before using for
the first time, in order to expel any smells
before the introduction of food.
Do clean the appliance regularly.
Do remove spills as soon as they occur.
Do always use oven gloves when removing
food shelves and trays from the oven.
Do check that controls are in the off position
when finished.
Do not allow children near the cooker when in
use. Turn pan handles away from the
front so that they cannot be caught
accidentally.
Do not allow fats or oils to build up in the oven
trays or base.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or powders
that will scratch the surfaces of the
appliance.
Do not under any circumstances use the oven
as a space heater.
Do not put heavy objects onto open grill and
oven doors.

Leaks
If a smell of gas becomes apparent, the
supply should be turned off at the cylinder
IMMEDIATELY. Extinguish naked lights
including cigarettes and pipes. Do not
operate electrical switches. Open all doors
and windows to disperse any gas escape.
LPG gas is heavier than air; any escaping
gas will therefore collect at a low level. The
strong unpleasant smell of gas will enable
the general area of the leak to be detected.
Check that the gas is not escaping from an
unlighted appliance. Never check for leaks
with a naked flame, leak investigation should
be carried out using a leak detector spray.
Maintenance & servicing
Important
• Shut off gas supply at isolating valve, switch
off electric supply and ensure all parts are

approved competent person.
• After each service the appliance must be
