Hotplate
Safety requirements for deep fat frying
Use of Hotplates
GB
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely
cover the appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the
heating or cooking period.
4. Never try to fry too much food at a time,
especially frozen food. This only lowers the
temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting in
greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and
lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods,
in particular, will cause frothing and spitting, if
added to quickly.
Note:
Under no circumstances should the hob be
used with aluminium foil in contact with the
hob surface.
The controls set the hotplates at six pre-set
power levels. Each control can be used to
select one of six temperature settings from a
minimum at position 1 to a maximum at
position 6.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from
streaks of oil or fat.
Do Not leave a hotplate switched on without
a pan as this wastes energy and may shorten
the life of the hotplate.
CONTROL SETTINGS GUIDE
Practical advice on using the hob
• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that
they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.
This is provided only as a guide – settings also
depend on the type of pan used and the quality of
food.
Knob Position Type of food
1
To melt butter, chocolate, etc.
• Always use pans with a diameter that is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use
all the heat produced.
1 or 2
To heat food gently.
To keep small amounts of water simmering.
To heat sauces, containing egg yolks and butter.
To simmer: stews, meat, fish, vegetables, fruit.
3
To heat solid and liquid foods.
Keep water boiling.
Thaw frozen vegetables.
Make 2-3 egg omelettes.
• Always make sure that the base of the pan is
completely clean and dry: this ensures that the
pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and
that both the pans and the hob remain effective
for a longer period of time.
• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on
gas burners: the heat concentration on gas
burners may have warped the base of the pan,
causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.
• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a
pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone
to become damaged.
4 or 5
To cook foods, just above simmering.
To maintain 'rolling' boil for preserve making.

6
To seal meat and fry fish.
Frying potatoes.
Bringing water to the boil.
Deep fat frying.
Dissolve sugar for preserve making.

‘hooks’ embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)
2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits
exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2) and
holds the pan from the bottom.
GB
A switch operated by the door changes the heating
element configuration between grill and oven
operation. When the door is open, the top inner
element is activated for intense downward heat;
when the door is closed, the top outer and lower
elements are activated to provide even oven
heating.
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The
best results are achieved by placing the oven rack
on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into
the grill pan will make the collection of grease
particles more efficient and prevent the formation of
smoke.
To operate the grill proceed as follows:
Open the grill door.
Pre-heat the grill on setting 6 for approximately 5
minutes (see chart on guide to grilling).
The food to be cooked should be placed on the grill
pan/grill pan food support.
Fix the grill pan handle securely in position. See
below.
Food which only requires browning should be
placed directly on/in the grill pan in the grill pan
runner, or on the floor of the grill compartment.
(the grill pan grid may be removed.)
Place the grill pan on the runners and push back to
the stop position when the grill pan is correctly
positioned beneath the grill element.
Plates and dishes placed on the floor of the grill
compartment will be heated when the oven is in use.
Leave the control on setting 6 for toast, sealing
and fast cooking of foods. For thicker foods
requiring longer cooking turn the control to a lower
setting after the initial sealing, on both sides, on
setting 6. The thicker the food the lower the
control should be set.
Grill Compartment as a ‘Hotcupboard’
Do not operate the grill control when using
the compartment as a hotcupboard.
Do take care when removing plates, dishes and
utensils from the grill compartment when the oven is
in use as they may become quite hot.
Warning: Take care as the grill will be hot –
always wear oven gloves. Always ensure that
the grill pan is clean BEFORE use. Excess
fat build up in the bottom of the pan could
cause a fire hazard. Never line grill pan with
foil.
You may need to use oven gloves when removing
warmed items.
Fixing the Grill Pan Handle
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle
securely before use:
1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external

Oven Control
(f) Potatoes for roasting only require to be brushed
with cooking oil or melted fat.
(g)It is not necessary to baste when roasting in an
electric oven and stock or liquid should not be
added to the meat pan since this only causes
unnecessary soiling, steam and condensation.
GB
Heating of the oven is achieved by turning control
clockwise to the required temperature scale on the
control panel, as recommended in the temperature
charts. The indicator light will immediately come on
and will then automatically go off and on during
cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct
temperature.
The cooking charts provided in this book are a guide
only, giving approximate cooking temperatures and
times. To suit personal taste and requirements, it may
be necessary to increase or decrease temperatures
by 10°C.
For optimum cooking performance, there must be
clearance between meat pan and oven sides. The meat
pan must be placed lengthways in the oven to allow for
air circulation.
The oven is fitted with two rod shelves. The oven is
heated by two tubular sheathed elements located
under the floor of the oven and on the oven roof, inside
the cavity. It should be noted that at the end of a
cooking period there may be a momentary puff of
steam when the oven door is opened. This will
disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal
characteristic of an oven with a good door seal.
Times and Temperatures for Roasting
The secret of succulent, tender meat, is not to roast it
too quickly, at too high a temperature. Best results
are obtained when roasting is carried out at a low
temperature. When a lower temperature is used, the
joint loses less weight, is more tender (too high a
temperature causes meat to be tough and dry) and
the splashing of fat onto the oven interior is reduced to
a minimum. When a complete meal is being cooked
in the oven, cooking time may need to be increased
and temperature may need to be raised for
approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking
period (for instance when cooking Yorkshire pudding
to serve with roast beef). The suggested times and
temperatures should be used as a guide, but may
vary according to:-
Oven Positions
The correct positioning of food is indicated in the
temperature charts.
To prepare meat and poultry for roasting in your
conventional oven.
(a)Wipe the joint, dry well with a clean cloth, kitchen
tissue etc. and weigh it. Meat which has been
stored in a refrigerator should be allowed to come
to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes
before cook ing, and frozen meat or poultry must
be completely defrosted before placing in the
oven.
(b)The weight of any stuffing used should be added
to the oven ready weight of the meat / poultry
before calculating the cooking time.
(c)Place the joint in the meat pan supplied with your
cooker. Small joints weighing less than 1.75kg
(31/2 lbs) should be roasted in a smaller meat
pan/tin - or they may be ‘pot roasted’ - a small
joint in a large meat pan causes unnecessary
oven splashing and evaporation of meat juices.
(d)Additional fat should not be added, except for
veal, very lean meat or poultry which can either be
‘larded’ with fat bacon or brushed very
sparingly with cooking oil or melted fat.
(e)Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry may be dusted
lightly with seasoned flour to give a crisp outer
surface. The skin of duck and goose should be
pricked to release excess fat during cooking, and
the rind of pork should be scored, brushed lightly
with oil, and rubbed with salt, to give crisp
crackling.
1. Whether you prefer meat rare, medium or well
done.
2. The size and shape of your joint.
(a)A short thick joint requires a longer cooking
period than a long thin joint.
(b)A small joint under 1.5kg (3 lbs) takes longer per
450g (1 lb) cook in the time given for ‘minutes’ per
450g (1 lb) without the ‘minutes’ over added.
(c)Boned/rolled and stuffed joints take longer to
cook through than those with a bone.
N.B.
Remember to switch off the oven control after cooking
is finished. If the door of the oven is left open for long
periods of time with the control switch ON, then the
grill element will become hot. The correct positioning
of food is indicated in the temperature charts.
! When inserting the
shelf make sure the
backstop is at the
rear of the cavity

Using the Main Oven
for Other Functions
‘S’ SLOW Setting
Points to consider when preparing food
for “SLOW” cooking:
GB
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and
warming plates for short periods. Extra care should be
taken when warming bone china, as it may be
damaged in a hot oven.
1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into
the oven ensuring enough room for air to circulate.
2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a
minimum of 6 hours, however, if they are cooked for 1
-2 hours longer then deterioration in their appearance
may be noticed.
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven
floor as this could damage both the oven lining and
the plates which are being warmed.
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 Ib) or
poultry over 2.0kg (4lb 8oz).
Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are:
We do not recommend that joints of meat or poultry
are stuffed before cooking on the slow setting.
4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or
poultry at 170°C for 30 minutes before wrapping in foil
and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air
circulation) before turning the control to the slow
setting and cooking immediately.
5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are
thoroughly cooked by checking with a meat
thermometer before serving.
The oven stays cleaner because there is less
splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of
overcooking.
Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.
Fully loading the oven can be economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up
to 2 hours.
6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before
cooking. We do not recommend placing frozen food in
the oven to cook.
Operation:
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and
ensure the door is fully closed.
7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the
boil before placing in the oven.
2. Select ‘S’ (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning
the Main Oven Control clockwise ensuring the oven
door is fully closed.
8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal
(not airtight) and cover to the top with foil to prevent
loss of moisture.
9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even
sized small pieces to cook properly.
Storage and re-heating of food:
10.Always adjust seasoning before serving.
11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important that
the beans are soaked and then boiled fora minimum of

Care and Cleaning
Electric sealed hotplates
Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) – open the
door fully and unscrew the two screws securing the
glass panel, taking care not to allow the glass to fall.
The glass panel may now be washed at the sink.
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel
wool soap pad. Ensure the glass panel is not
subjected to any sharp mechanical blows. Take
particular care not to damage the inner surface which
is coated with a heat reflective layer. After cleaning,
rinse and dry with a soft cloth. For slight soiling the
inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm,
without removing it from the door.
GB
The cleaning of sealed hotplates should be done when
they are cold, using a soap filled Brillo pad, following
the grain of the hotplate. This will ensure that any
stubborn, burnt on spillages are removed. Wipe over
with a damp clean cloth, making sure that all the
cleaner has been removed.
Finally, turn on hotplate to warm for a few minutes,
then smear with a little cooking oil to provide a
protective coating, or the restorative agent Homecare
Four Hob, available from our spares department or
leading supermarkets. The bezels will mellow with use
to a burnished gold colour, a soap filled Brillo pad will
help to keep them bright, care should be taken not to
damage the vitreous enamel hob surface.
Warning: Oven must not be operated with inner
door glass removed.
Note: We do not recommend the use of decorative
covers over the hot hotplates as these can hold
condensation and cause corrosion. Accidental
operation with a cover in place can cause intense
heat. Never place saucepan lids on the hotplates, as
this may cause corrosion.
Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort
the door seals. Do not lift the door seal from the oven
chassis, if necessary remove the seal by carefully
unhooking the corner clips.
Take care that the rating label edges are not lifted
during cleaning, and furthermore that the lettering is
not blurred or removed.
Grill
Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it
is best to wash these items immediately after use to
prevent stains from being burnt on when used again.
Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine steel wool
soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill
runners and the floor of the compartment. Wipe over
the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a
dry cloth.
Ovens
Remove the rod shelves and grill pan. Use a fine steel
wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the rod
shelves, grill pan and the floor of the oven.
Oven Shelf Supports
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher
safe.
To remove hold the support at the front and pull away
from the oven side, this can then be cleaned in a sink
or a dishwasher. When removed it allows access to
the oven side, which can be cleaned with warm soapy
water.
Control Panel
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or
aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.
Decorative Trims
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to
prevent any build up of soiling. The recommended
method of cleaning is to wipe over the trims with a soft
cloth wrung out in warm water or mild non-abrasive
cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner on a small area of
trim which is not noticeable in normal use). Then, after
wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a
soft clean cloth.
