Using the Oven
First Time Use of the Oven
Ensure that nothing has been left in the oven and that the room is well ventilated. Remove any packaging, labels
and handles or plastic bags. Before connecting the power, use a damp cloth to carefully wipe the inner cavity wall
and housing. Clean all the detachable parts in hot, soapy water before using.
Heat the oven on maximum for 45 minutes. (Please refer to the “Lighting the Oven” section) There may be a little
smoke and odour upon initial start up (for about 15 mins). This is normal. It is due to the protective substance
which protects the cooker from the effects of corrosion during shipping from the factory being removed.
Oven/Grill Control
This control is used to select the cooking functions available, which are:
This controls the bottom (oven) burner.
Turn the control anti-clockwise and set to the relevant setting
needed.
This controls the top (grill) burner.
When using this mode, ensure that the Grill Deflector is used.
(Please refer to "Using the Grill" section)
Turn the control fully clockwise to use.
Lighting the Oven
1. Press the Ignition switch and at the same time press and hold the Oven/Grill control in and then turn it
anti-clockwise to the MAX position. Release the Ignition switch once the burner is lit.
2. Continue to hold the Oven/Grill control in for approximately 10 seconds after the burner has lit. (You will see
blue flames through the bottom burner grid.) Releasing the control too soon will extinguish the flame due to
the flame failure safety feature.
Manual Ignition (in case of electricity failure)
To ignite the oven burner, press and turn the control anti-clockwise so that the control is at its maximum
position. Hold an ignition source (e.g. candle lighter) close to the hole just to the left of centre of the bottom
of the oven. Move the ignition source away as soon as you see a stable flame. Continue holding the control in
for approximately 10 seconds after the burner has lit. Releasing the control too soon will extinguish the flame
due to the flame failure safety feature.
3. After ignition, check the flames visually. If you see yellow tipped, lifted or unstable flames; turn the control
off. If the burner flames go out accidentally, turn the burner off, open the door and do not try to light it again
for at least 90 seconds (to allow the gas to disperse).
4. When turning the oven off, turn the control in a clockwise direction so that the control shows the OFF (O)
position in line with the marking on the control panel.
• If the oven burner does not light within 15 seconds, turn the control off and wait for at least 90
seconds before trying again.
• To switch the oven burner off, turn the control clockwise to the OFF (O) position.
• After use, always turn the controls to the OFF (O) position.
This appliance is for cooking purposes only. It must not be used for other purposes, for example
