WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK,
BEFORE REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT,
SWITCH THE COOKER OFF AT THE COOKER
CONTROL UNIT (and allow to cool if the oven
has been used).
Replacement of the Oven Light
Unscrew the glass cover, using a suitable cloth to
protect the fingers and remove carefully. Unscrew
the existing light bulb, and remove. Screw the new
bulb into position and replace the glass cover, with
metal washer, until positioned securely.
CLEANING THE DOORS
Take particular care not to damage the inner
surface of the door inner glass that is coated with
a heat reflective layer. Do not use scouring pads,
or abrasive powder, which will scratch the glass.
Ensure that the glass panel is not subjected to
any sharp mechanical blows.
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine
steel wool soap pad. For slight soiling the inner
glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm,
without removing it from the door. After cleaning,
rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
SIDE OPENING DOORS
Cleaning the door glass is the same as the drop
down doors, except take care to support the weight
of the inner glass when removing and refitting.
DROP DOWN DOORS

1. Open the door fully and remove the extrusion
end caps (This should be done by hand but if it
proves too difficult, simply lift the inner glass to
ease the end caps out of position).

cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.
NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE
INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.
Refit the door inner glass as follows.

the printing is readable from the face nearest the
oven in the closed position and the widest black
band is towards the bottom of the door. The
inner door glass has a special reflective coating
on one side, in order to minimise surface
temperatures and energy consumption during
use, it is important it is fitted correctly.
3. Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it
will go and replace the end caps.
