USING COOKER FOR THE FIRST TIME
We recommend that before you cook in your new cooker you heat the oven to 180℃for 2hrs to
run in your new oven. After the oven cools wipe it out with hot water and a mild detergent. We
also recommend cleaning the racks and shelves before use.
When using the cooker for the first time you may notice the following:
• There may be a smell. This is quite normal when the cooker is first heated as residual oil
from production of parts will be burnt off quickly.
• There may be noises. This is also quite normal as new parts move and settle into place
during the initial heating process.
DURING USE
• This product is intended for the cooking of food and must not be used for other purposes.
• Unstable or deformed pans should not be placed on the burners or hot plates in order to
avoid accidents caused by spill over. Particular care should be taken when cooking with oil or
fat.
• If the appliance is fitted with a cover, its function is to protect burners from dust
• when closed and when open is to protect kitchen wall from splashes of grease.
• Do not use the lid for other purposes. Always clean the cover before closing.
• All the glass covers are removable to facilitate cleaning.
• Glass or Metal covers should not be closed when the cooker hob is operating.
• Always ensure that the knobs are in the "O" Off or Stop position when the appliance is not in
use.
• Always insert the dripping pan when using the grill or when or cooking meat on the grid. We
recommend you pour a little water into the dripping pan to avoid grease burning and creating
unpleasant smell.
• Clean dripping pan regularly to ensure food, fat and grease do not build up and create a
fire hazard.
• Before maintenance and cleaning, disconnect the appliance and allow cooling down. For
reasons of hygiene and safety this appliance must always be kept clean.
• Take care when using cleaning products in spray form: never direct the spray onto the
electrical wiring, thermostat and bulb.
• When placing food in the oven, or when removing a large quantity of oil, juice, etc., any spills
onto the bottom of the oven must be cleaned before starting to 9 cook to avoid unpleasant
smoke and also the possibility of these substances catching fire.
• Ensure that air can circulate around the gas appliance. Poor ventilation can result in lack of
oxygen and extinguish the flame.
• The use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and humidity in the room where it is
installed.
• Ensure good ventilation of the room, keep adequate natural ventilation or install an extractor
hood with a discharge tube.
• In case of doubt ask installer for advice.
