The grill element may have oils left on the grill during manufacture. Before you cook on the grill for the first
time, turn on for 15 minutes with 10mm of water in the bottom of the grill dish.

Adjusting the minimum setting.
The oven thermostat has a screw for regulating the minimum
setting, accessed by removing the thermostat knob. When the type
of gas used changes, the minimum setting must be adjusted as
follows:
•
Light the oven burner and keep it operating at the highest
setting for 10/15 minutes with the door closed. Then turn the
knob to the minimum temperature setting, remove the knob
and use a straight-head screwdriver to adjust. Firstly, turn the
knob in clockwise direction tightly then anticlockwise to adjust
the flame. For natural gas you should turn one of a circle while
1/8 circle for LPG
•
When using bottled gas, the adjuster screw must be turned fully
clockwise.
•
When using town or natural gas, adjust the screw so that when the thermostat knob is turned from the
maximum to the minimum setting, the flame always remains stable and uniform. Close the oven door and
check that the burner remains on at the minimum setting.
