USER INSTRUCTIONS

13

1. GENERAL

1.1 This cooker is designed for domestic use and should

only be used for this purpose, and in accordance with

the manufacturers operating instructions.

1.2 It should be installed by a competent installer (HETAS

registered UK only), in accordance with all local

regulations, including those referring to national and

European standards.

1.3 The cooker should only be used to burn approved fuels

and should not be used with liquid fuels or used as an

incinerator.

1.4 As with all cookers the surfaces will become very hot

when in use, therefore due care should be taken when

near the cooker. If it is to be used in the presence of

young children, elderly or infirm persons a suitable

fireguard should be used. Care should also be taken with

the placement of combustible items near the cooker as

conducted and radiated heat could cause a fire hazard.

1.5 Stovax offer a hearthgate system designed to offer full

protection for cookers and fireplaces. Your Stovax dealer

can advise you on these products.

1.6 The additional ventilation required for the safe use of

this cooker should be kept free of any obstructions, both

inside and outside the building, at all times.

1.7 Your Stovax product should be serviced annually by a

competent service engineer, and if repairs are required

use only Stovax approved spare parts.

1.8 Do not make unauthorised modifications or changes to

the cooker.

1.9 SERIAL NUMBER

This number will be required when ordering spare parts

or making warranty claims.

2. CARE OF THE COOKER

2.1 IMPORTANT

NEVER use caustic, citric or abrasive cleaning products

on your cooker because these may scratch or damage its

surfaces.

2.2 ALWAYS try to wipe up spillages when they happen.

2.3 You will get better results if you clean your cooker when

it is cool.

2.4 Use hot soapy water and a cloth to clean the enamel

surfaces and finish with a soft dry cloth to avoid

streaking.

2.5 We recommend you allow your cooker to cool fully

before cleaning and carrying out any maintenance

work.

2.6 VITREOUS ENAMEL FINISH

The coloured surfaces of the cooker are finished in

vitreous enamel. Care should be taken as this finish can

be damaged by dropping objects onto surfaces or

cleaning with metal scrapers or wire wool. Burnt-on

food may be removed by carefully using a plastic scraper

or plastic cleaning pad when the cooker is cool.

2.7 CLEANING THE HOTPLATE

Some natural discolouration and marking of the hot

plate will occur during use of the cooker.

Burnt-on food may be removed by carefully using a

plastic scraper or plastic cleaning pad when the cooker

is cool.

Use hot soapy water and a cloth to clean and finish

with a soft dry cloth. Some light surface rust may

occasionally appear on the hot plate, this may be

removed by using a cleaning pad and polishing with a

small amount of cooking oil.

2.8 CLEANING THE OVEN

The internal surfaces of the oven are finished with

vitreous enamel. These may be cleaned using a non-

abrasive oven cleaner and any burnt-on food may be

removed by carefully using a plastic scraper or plastic

cleaning pad when the cooker is cool.

The door glass may be cleaned by using Stovax glass

cleaner and a soft cloth. Then wipe with warm soapy

water and a cloth, to neutralise any remaining cleaner,

and finish with a soft dry cloth.

3. USING THE COOKER

FOR THE FIRST TIME

3.1 When new, it is best to burn the cooker at a low output

for the first few days of use. This will allow the

construction to settle and all fixing glues and paint to

fully cure.

3.2 Avoid touching any painted finish during the first

period of use.
