Details about the plug are given on page 34. Hotplate To light 1. Push in the control knob and turn it to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread. Please note: If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all the hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 27 for more information. 4 Grill/second oven The grill and the second oven are operated by the same control so you cannot use them both at the same time. Grill To light: 1 Open the door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to the right to the highest setting. This is shown by a large flame symbol. Press the ignition button. When the burner has lit release the button. 3 Leave the grill door open when you are using the grill. Warning : If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread. For your safety Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill fires Second oven To light: 1 Open the oven door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to the left to gas mark 1. Press the ignition button. When the burner has lit release the button. There will only be small flames at first. 3 Now turn the control knob to the gas mark you want. 4 Wait until the burner is showing large flames. 5 Close the oven door. Important: Remember to remove the grill pan handle before you use the second oven. 5 Lighting the appliance CSG 552 CSG 552 Lighting the appliance Main oven To light: 1 Set the time of day on the clock. See page 22 2 Open the oven door. 3 Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 9. After a few seconds the oven will light automatically and the oven light will illuminate. 4 Now turn the control knob back to the gas mark you want. 5 Wait until the burner is showing large flames 6 Close the oven door. If there is an electrical power failure (such as a power cut) you cannot use the main oven. You can use the second oven. To turn off any burner 1 Push in the control knob and turn it to the off position. This is shown by a large dot. For your safety When you are lighting any burner check that it has lit before you leave the appliance. When you are turning off a burner, do not leave the appliance until the flame has gone out. Oven light The main oven light will come on when the oven burner is alight. If you need to replace the oven light bulb, follow the instructions given on page 35. 6 CSG 552 The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food. Prior to using the grill We suggest that you operate the grill for approximately 5 - 10 mins to burn off any residue from the surface. During this period a slight odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation. When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the burner heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance. For your safety The grill pan and handle must be in place before igniting the grill. You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit. Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young children should be kept away. Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill fires. Heat control The grill control has two heat settings. The control knob turns to the right from 'OFF' to 'LOW' and then to 'HIGH'. Use the high setting for fast cooking such as toast. Use the low setting to cook thicker food such as chicken after you have browned it on the high setting. 7 The grill The grill CSG 552 Cooking positions There is only one position for the grill shelf (Position 2). Positions are counted from the top downwards. Most food should be cooked on the grid in the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to suit different thicknesses of food. You can place some dishes straight on to the grill shelf. This is useful when you are browning the top of food such as cauliflower cheese. General The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the main oven. It is important that you do not swap them over. Only use the shelf with the solid metal plate underneath it in the grill/second oven. When you are not using the grill you should remove the handle and store the pan on the shelf in the grill. Turn the grill burner off before you store the pan. Remember that the pan will get hot when you are using the main oven. You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are using the main oven. Preheating You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or browning food. Positioning food on the grid Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and muffins towards the centre of the grid. Place food which needs a gentle heat, such as tomatoes and mushrooms towards the edge of the grid. Arrange meat, meat products and fish to suit their thickness and how you like them cooked. 8 CSG 552 The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan. Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to remove the grill pan handle during grilling. Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill. To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill pan. Note If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered from your local Service Force Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6. 9 The grill The hotplate CSG 552 The hotplate If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 27 for more information. Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn anticlockwise from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. You can adjust the heat by turning the control between the highest and lowest settings. These are shown as a large and a small flame symbol. Burner sizes The hotplate has three burner sizes to suit different types of cooking: Largest burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such as chips. Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday cooking. Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering food such as soups and stews. The largest pan which you should use on any burner is 230mm (9"). The base of the smallest pan should not measure less than 100mm (4"). Lift pans on and off the pan supports. Do not slide them across the hob. 10 For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip. Put pans on the centre of the burners. Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally knocked. Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do not cover the pan with a lid. Do not leave a pan unattended. If the pan catches fire, leave it where it is and turn off all controls. Place a damp cloth or a fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames. Never put water on the fire. Leave the pan to cool for 30 minutes. 7 If you are using a Wok we recommend it has a flat base as it will stand stable on the pan supports. If you use a round based Wok with a collar support, the collar must be of the open wire work type. A closed collar will affect the performance of the burner. Before you use the Wok make sure that the collar is stable on the pan supports. Always follow the instructions that come with the Wok. 11 The hotplate CSG 552 The hotplate CSG 552 Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen. Try cooking more than one vegetable in the same pan, for example potatoes and carrots. Cut vegetables into smaller pieces. This way they will cook more quickly. A pressure cooker will save time and energy. 2 3 4 5 6 12 The ovens Before you use the ovens you should wipe them out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones Main oven - There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make use of these heat zones when you are cooking foods that need different temperatures all at the same time. If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking. Or you can remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking. Second oven - You should turn food round during the cooking time. Preheating You do not need to preheat the main or second oven for casseroling and so on. Preheat the ovens for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food such as Yorkshire puddings, soufflés and yeast mixtures. When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the instructions on the packaging. When you are using the second oven to reheat food you should preheat the oven to gas mark 8. When you need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for 20 minutes. Oven shelves You can slot the oven shelves into any of five positions in the main oven and any of the two positions in the second oven. Positions are counted from the top downwards. The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the main oven. Only use the shelf with the solid metal plate underneath it in the grill/second oven. The plate may glow red when you are using the oven. This will not affect the cooking performance. 13 The ovens CSG 552 The ovens CSG 552 Most second oven cooking should be carried out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2. However when cooking a small joint or a deep cake you can use the shelf on the base of the second oven to allow enough Shelf on base air to circulate around the food. For safety the shelves will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely, pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift it out. To put the shelf into a different position, keep the front edge raised, slot the shelf on to the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in. Baking trays and dishes For your safety Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burners. This will damage the appliance as well as the cookware and possibly the floor covering underneath the appliance. Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly. Do not push dishes too far back as food will burn if it overhangs the burner flames. For the best results from the main oven we recommend that you use a baking tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or tin which is larger than this, you may need to turn it around during cooking. The size of tray which should be used in the second oven should not be bigger than 310mm x 230mm (12" x 9"). Place the longest side parallel with the door. Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn large items around during cooking. Turn all food round in the second oven. 14 Roasting For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to prevent splashing. It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended cooktimes. If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb). When cooking large items such as turkeys, the use of foil may be required to prevent the breast becoming dry before the rest of the bird is fully cooked. Condensation Condensation may form on the appliance. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and moisture are present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture, for example casseroles, are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up straight away. 15 The ovens CSG 552 Oven cooking chart Oven cooking chart - Main oven These instructions are for cooking in the oven after it has been pre-heated for 20 minutes. If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking or you can take the top tray out of the oven when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking. Always leave at least one shelf position between shelves to allow heat to circulate. The recommended shelf positions give the best results. Put the dishes in the centre of the shelf. You can change the gas marks and cooking times to suit your own tastes. It is important to check that food is piping hot before serving. If you are using both ovens at the same time you may need to adjust the cooking times. 16 Food Roasting meat: Beef Lamb Pork and Veal Gas mark 5 Shelf position 4 Approximate cooking time Rare: Medium: Well Done: Medium: Well Done: Medium: Well Done: 20 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 30 mins. 25 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 25 mins. 30 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 30 mins. 25 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 25 mins. 30 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 30 mins. 30 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 30 mins. 35 mins. per ½ kg (1lb) and 35 mins.

See Fig 11 Fig 10. Fig 11. 23 The electronic minute minder Slow cooking CSG 552 Slow cooking Please note: There is no slow cook on the second oven. The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn the oven down to the slow cook setting. This makes sure that the temperature of the food gets hot enough to start the food cooking. Mark 6 Turn to S Some foods such as pastry and biscuits are not suitable for slow cooking because the temperature is too low. Cover all food during cooking to prevent it from drying out. You can uncover food for the last half hour if it is normally served golden brown. Food preparation - slow cooking Joints of meat and poultry l l l l l l l l l l l Do not cook meat joints over 2.7kg (6lb). Do not cook poultry over 2kg (4lb 8oz). Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or above. Cook stuffing separately. Cook for a minimum of 6 hours. Joints of pork must only be cooked if you can ensure, by using a meat thermometer, that an internal temperature of at least 88oC has been reached. For good air circulation always stand joints on a rack in a roasting tin or casserole. Thaw all frozen meat and poultry before cooking. Prime cuts of meat do not benefit from slow cooking. Remove excess fat and skin unless browned first. Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook setting. 24 Soups, casseroles and stews l l l l l l l l l l l l Do not cook casseroles over 2.7kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tinfoil. Cut into small pieces. Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish. Place vegetables under meat in casseroles. Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tinfoil. Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook setting. Cover the cereal with boiling water and allow to stand for 30 minutes. Drain and make the pudding in the usual way. Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook setting. Vegetables Milk puddings General points for slow cooking Frozen foods Thaw thoroughly before cooking. Thickening Toss meat in flour for casseroles. Alternatively blend cornflour with water and add at the end of cooking. Flavouring Flavours are retained because there is little evaporation. Adjust at the end of the cooking time. Liquid Reduce normal liquid quantities slightly as there is little evaporation during cooking time. Milk and milk products, for example cream Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling. Reheating Left over food should be cooled quickly and refrigerated. Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food conventionally or in a microwave. Food must only be reheated once. 25 Slow cooking CSG 552 Care and cleaning CSG 552 Care and cleaning For your safety For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas appliance clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuff could cause a fire. Try to mop up spills and splashes as soon as they happen. But be careful as parts of the appliance will be hot. Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet. Please note: If we recommend you use hot soapy water we mean hot water with washing up liquid in it and not any other cleaning product. If you own a dishwasher please read the operating instructions for the machine before you wash any part of your appliance. Clean your appliance regularly using a cloth that has been wrung out in hot soapy water. Rinse and polish it dry using a soft cloth. When you remove parts of your appliance for cleaning do not plunge them into water whilst they are very hot as this may damage the finish of the parts. Cleaning the brass plated handles (Where applicable) It is strongly recommended that only hot soapy water is used for cleaning the door handles. ANY OTHER CLEANING MATERIALS WILL DULL THE BRASS PLATED FINISH. The hotplate Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as 'Cif'. Take care not to damage the spark electrodes. If the spark electrodes are damaged the burners will not light. You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns to clean them. Again take care not to damage the spark electrodes. If any food spills during cooking you can place the pan on another burner to finish cooking. Then you can remove the dirty parts and clean them before the spill 'burns on'. 26 Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time. Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the pan supports. Clean the pan supports regularly to remove the marks using a mild abrasive like 'Cif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn marks you can use a soap-filled pad such as 'Brillo'. After cleaning the appliance parts, dry them thoroughly before you put them back. When replacing hotplate burner parts 1. Crown to body (Do not try to force the crown on to the body). Make sure that the hole in the crown is over the electrode. Check that the two longer location pegs sit in the slots in the body. When the crown is in this position let it fall freely on to the body. Check that the crown can be moved slightly from side to side. 2. Cap to crown Place cap centrally on the top of crown (enamel side up). Move sideways and front to back to check the cap is properly fitted. 3. Check for ignition If a burner will not light then you need to check the crown and cap positions. 27 Care and cleaning CSG 552 Care and cleaning CSG 552 The grill Do not clean the grill burner itself. The burner is designed to be self cleaning. Cleaning the grill may cause the holes in the burner to become blocked preventing it from operating correctly. Please note that due to the nature of stainless steel the grill burner may tarnish through use over a period of time. This is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance. Clean the area around the grill frequently using hot soapy water. After use you can soak the pan for a few minutes and then clean it using mild abrasives or a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. Clean the grill shelf using hot soapy water. Mild abrasives can be used if necessary. The grill and top oven Clean the grill and top oven frequently using hot soapy water. After use you can soak the grill pan for a few minutes and then clean it using mild abrasives or a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. Clean the shelf, grill pan grid and handle using hot soapy water. Mild abrasives can be used if necessary. The heat in the oven will change the colour of the solid plate on the shelf. You must not remove the solid plate from the shelf. You can soak the shelf in hot soapy water for a few minutes to make cleaning easier. 28 The main oven The sides and back of your oven are coated in a special material which helps to keep itself clean. Follow these simple rules to maintain the appearance of the special finish. Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over. Do not put dishes too high in the oven. If you do they may stick to the oven roof. Cover your roasting tins with foil. This will prevent fat splashing. Use a roasting tin which is just large enough for the meat and potatoes. This will help to reduce fat splashing. Dry any vegetables that you are going to roast. If they are wet there will be more fat splashing. Follow the oven cleaning cycle regularly. 29 Care and cleaning CSG 552 Care and cleaning CSG 552 Main oven cleaning cycle Please note: The oven cleaning cycle can only be used in the main oven. You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to follow the cycle. If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should follow the cleaning cycle once a week. If you do very little roasting you will only need to follow the cleaning cycle every 2-3 weeks. To carry out a cleaning cycle: 1. Remove the oven shelves. 2. Set the oven to mark 5 for at least 30 minutes. MARK 5 3. Turn the temperature up to mark 7 for 2 hours or until the oven is presentably clean. Some staining will remain. Do not use any cleaning agents or scrapers on the inside of the oven. Do not wash the special finish. MARK 7 You can replace the oven roof if you need to. You may order this from your supplier. When you are ordering quote part number 359001018. General Clean the base of the oven, the oven shelves and the oven door while they are still slightly warm. This way you can easily remove any splashes or spills. Wipe the oven base with a cloth that has been wrung out in hot soapy water. You may use mild abrasives. 30 Cleaning between the outer and inner door glass. You can remove the glass from the oven and grill doors if you need to. Note: For top oven door it is important not to open the door when the glass is removed because the door is lighter and it will spring shut. To remove the outer glass 1 Open the door so you can get at the two cross head screws on the top of the door. Note: Open top oven door slightly to access screws. 2 Loosen these two screws using a pozidrive screwdriver. 3 You should hold the door glass securely in place with one hand, whilst removing the screws completely, with the other hand. If you do not do this, the door glass could fall forward. 4 Using both hands, gently tilt the top of the door glass towards you. Lift it slightly to disengage the locators at the bottom of the door. Please note that the door glass on your product may differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram. 5 Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water and mild abrasives such as 'Cif'. DO NOT try to clean the foil which is inside the door. The foil is there to keep the door cool, if it is damaged it will not work. 6 Replace the glass by holding it in both hands and gently placing the locators into the holes of the brackets at the bottom of the door, and make sure the screw location holes line up. 7 Hold the glass in place with one hand and replace the cross head screws into the location holes, with the other hand. 8 Tighten the screws using a pozidrive screwdriver. Close the door. 31 Care and cleaning CSG 552 Installation CSG 552 Cleaning The Door Glass To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following: Household detergents and bleaches Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads Chemical oven pads or aerosols Rust removers Bath/Sink stain removers If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep scratches the glass will be weakened and must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel shattering.

Installing the appliance For your safety This appliance must be installed and serviced by a competent person as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) regulations current editions and the IEE Wiring Regulations. It is important that the appliance is suitable for your gas supply. Your installer should check the rating plate. Make sure that a stability bracket is fitted. Location For your safety The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood). Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present. For further details see page 42. 32 Positioning The diagram shows how close to the appliance cupboards, shelves, curtains and so on can be fitted. Look at the diagram and carefully read the instructions to make sure your appliance is fitted safely. If you are in doubt your installer will give you advice. Do not fit any materials which may catch fire, for example wood or curtains behind the appliance. Base units which are higher than the hotplate must be 100mm away. l l l l If a cooker hood is fitted check the cooker hood installation instructions. We recommend that cabinets fitted next to or above the appliance meet British Standards. Your installer will give you advice if you are not sure. Appliance dimensions Height to hotplate: Width: Depth: 900mm - 920mm (adjusted by four screw feet) 594mm 600mm (to front of door panel) 33 Installation CSG 552 General information CSG 552 General information For your safety Do not block any of the appliance vents. Never line any part of the appliance with aluminium foil. Do not let items which can catch fire or electric mains leads such as kettle flexes trail over any part of the appliance. Moving your appliance You may damage some soft or badly fitted floor coverings when you move the appliance. The floor covering under the appliance should be securely fixed so it does not ruck up when you move the appliance across it. Alternatively you could remove the floor covering. To move the appliance open the second oven door. Raise the appliance off its front feet by lifting it from inside the oven. Pull the appliance forward. When you replace the appliance push it back to the stop and make sure there is the same gap at each rear corner. For your safety Do not try to disconnect the appliance from the gas supply if the supply pipe does not have a bayonet connection, as described in the installation instructions. If this is the case contact the person who installed the appliance. Connecting to the electricity supply For your safety This appliance must be earthed and protected by a 3 amp fuse. The plug supplied with the appliance can be fitted directly to a suitable three pin earthed socket. Ensure the plug is accessible to the user. If you have to change the fuse replace it with a 3 amp fuse which has been ASTA approved to BS 1362. Do not use the plug until you have put the fuse cover back on. If the fuse cover is lost you can get a replacement from an electrical retailer. The correct replacement can be identified by marking or colour coding. If you cut the plug off dispose of it safely as it will be a shock hazard if it is inserted into a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the house. 34 If the ignition system doesn't work there may be a fault with the electrical supply. First, check the socket by trying out another piece of electrical equipment in it, if that works correctly renew the fuse in the plug. If the fuse keeps failing there is a fault in the appliance which must be put right. Do not use a fuse with a rating higher than 3 amps. Do not carry out other electrical work. Unplug the appliance and tell your installer. Replacing the oven light bulb You need a 25 Watt small Edison screw with a temperature rating of T300. Make sure the oven is cool before you replace a bulb. Unplug the appliance. Open the oven door and remove the oven shelves. Place palm of hand at top of lens flat against oven side. Use fingers to lever lens away from housing. Unscrew the bulb by turning it to the left. Fit a new bulb and then replace the glass bulb cover. Replace the oven shelves. Plug the appliance back into the electricity supply. The oven light bulb is not covered by the manufacturer's guarantee. l l l l l l l l 35 General information CSG 552 What is wrong and why? CSG 552 What is wrong and why? We strongly recommend that you carry out the following checks on your appliance before calling a Service Engineer. Problem The oven, grill or hotplate will not light. Check l l l If only the hotplate burners will not light make sure that the burner parts have been replaced correctly. See instructions on page 27. If you cannot hear any sparking when you press the ignition button there may be a fault with the electrical supply. First check the socket by trying out another piece of electrical equipment in it. If that works, renew the fuse in the plug. Use a 3 amp fuse. If the fuse 'blows' again there is a fault on the appliance. Do not use a fuse with a rating higher than 3 amps. Do not carry out other electrical work. Unplug the appliance and tell your installer. If the appliance will not light because there is an electrical power failure such as a power cut you cannot use the main oven. All other burners may be lit with a match. Check that there is not a problem with your gas supply. You can do this by making sure that other gas appliances such as your central heating or gas fire are working. Problem Food is cooking too quickly or too slowly. Check l Check that you are using the recommended gas marks and shelf positions. See pages 16 - 21.
