Use the Right Size Pan

This appliance is equipped with burners of different sizes.

Use utensils with flat bottoms. Do not use unstable pans and

position the handles away from the edge of the cooktop.

Make sure the flames are under the pans. It is not safe to let

the flames burn up the sides of the pan; the handle may get

too hot.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve

efficiency.

Never leave cooktop burners unattended at high

settings. Pans boiling over can cause smoking and

greasy spills may catch on fire.

Protective liners – DO NOT use aluminum foil to

line cooktop bowls or oven bottoms. Foil liners

may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire and will

damage the enamel finish. Never allow aluminum

foil to contact the heating elements.

Glazed cooking utensils – Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed

utensils are suitable for range-top use without

breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

Utensil handles should be turned inward and not

over adjacent burners. If handles are left over

adjacent burners they will get hot and may burn.

Use of aluminum pans may cause metallic marking

of the grates. This does not affect the durability of

the enamel and may be cleaned off with a metal

polish.

Ovens

Take care when opening the door.

Let hot air and steam escape before removing or

replacing food.

Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure

build up may make container burst and cause injury.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.

DO NOT place aluminum foil on bottom of oven

cavity. This will cause the oven bottom to overheat

and void warranty.

DO NOT clean the door gasket: the door gasket is

essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to

rub, damage or move the gasket.

DO NOT use oven cleaners: no commercial oven

cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind

should be used in or around any part of the oven.

Clean only part listed in this User Guide.

Before self-cleaning the oven: remove the broiler

pans, side racks, sliding rack, divider and all other

utensils.

Placement of Oven Racks

Always place oven racks in desired location while

oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot,

do not let potholder contact hot heating element in

oven.

CAUTION!

DO NOT store items of interest to children in

cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a

range – children climbing on the range to reach

items could be seriously injured.

WARNING!

THIS APPLIANCE IS PROVIDED WITH ROLLERS TO

FACILITATE MOVEMENT DURING INSTALLATION.

INSTALLATION.

General Safety Instructions

This appliance must be installed by a competent person in

accordance with the installation instructions. The installation

must comply with the relevant regulations and also the local

electricity supply company requirements.
This appliance is designed for domestic cooking only. Use for

any other purpose could invalidate any warranty or liability

claim.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production

of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.

Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural

ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation

device, (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for

additional ventilation, for example opening a window, or

more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of

mechanical ventilation where present.
The range should be serviced by a qualified service engineer

and only approved parts used. Have the installer show you

the location of the range circuit breaker. Mark it for easy

reference. Always allow the range to cool and then switch

off at the circuit breaker before cleaning or carrying out any

maintenance work, unless specified otherwise in this guide.

All parts of the range become hot with use and will

retain heat even after you have stopped cooking.

Take care when touching range, to minimize the

possibility of burns, always be certain that the

controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool

before attempting to clean the range.

Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe

spills on a hot surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some

cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot

surface.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the range should be

kept clean at all times as a build up in fats and other food

stuff could result in a fire.
