Your cooker should give you many years of trouble-free 
cooking if installed and operated correctly. It is important

have not used a dual fuel cooker before.

Important!

This appliance is designed for domestic cooking 
only. Using it for any other purpose could invalidate 
any warranty or liability claim. In particular, the 
oven should NOT be used for heating the kitchen – 
besides invalidating claims this wastes fuel and may 
overheat the control knobs.

Installation and Maintenance

This cooker must be installed in accordance with the relevant 
instructions in this booklet, with the relevant national and 
local regulations, and with the local gas and electricity supply 
companies’ requirements.

Make sure that the gas supply is turned on and that the 
cooker is wired in and switched on (the cooker needs 
electricity).

Set the clock to make sure that the oven is functional – see 
the relevant section in this manual.

Only a qualified service engineer should service the cooker, 
and only approved spare parts should be used.

Always allow the cooker to cool and then switch it off at the 
mains before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work, 
unless specified otherwise in this guide.

Peculiar Smells

When you first use your cooker it may give off an odour. This 
should stop after use.

Before using for the first time, make sure that all packing 
materials have been removed and then, to dispel 
manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 200 °C and run for at 
least an hour.

Before using the grill for the first time you should also turn on 
the grill and run for 30 minutes with the grill pan in position, 
pushed fully back, and the grill door open.

Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air 
(see 

‘Ventilation’

 below). People with respiratory or allergy 

problems should vacate the area for this brief period.

CAUTION! The use of a gas cooking appliance results

holes open or install a powered cookerhood that
