Oven Timer Operation
(C367E & C368E)
The oven timer offers you the following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
Automatic Cooking The Main Oven (only) can be controlled by the automatic timer.When the
timer control has been set for one oven it is possible to use the other oven
manually.
Hints on
Automatic
Cooking
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook and require
approximately the same temperature.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or about to
finish cooking on your return to the oven. This will ensure the
food has not cooled down and does not require reheating
before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven,
ideally straight from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry
should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. We advise that warm food should never be placed in the oven if
there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat
and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat,
for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automatically
if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so
that the delay period is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain
foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start should be kept to
a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the
delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients just before
serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or
tossing in water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to
placing food in the oven.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent
boiling over.
11. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to
prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a
good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
Timer
1. Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.

The working of the Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The
heating zones
zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater controllability
for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped with a thermal
limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the ceramic glass
from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan
on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating
elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to the
ceramic glass.

Do not drag or slide utensils on the hob surface, as this will cause
scratches in the surface of the hob.
Do not allow a cooking utensil to come into contact with the hob
surround.
Do not place anything between the base of the utensil and
the ceramic hob, e.g. do not use asbestos mats,
aluminium or wok stand.
Do not leave any utensils, food or combustible items on the hob when
it is not in use.
Do not place aluminium or plastic foil, or plastic containers on the hob.
Do not leave the hotplates or cooking areas switched On unless they
are being used.
Do not leave heating zones uncovered when they are switched On.
We recommend not to place large preserving pans or fish kettles
across two heating areas.
Do not leave utensils partly covering the heated areas. Always
ensure that they are placed centrally over the heated
areas and have the same diameter as the heating area
used.
Always ensure that the bottom of the pan is both clean and dry. Dirt
or moisture between the pan and the hob can cause pitting
of the surface of the glass.
Do
We do not recommend the use of utensils with a base diameter greater
than 25cm (l0ins).
Pressure cookers or other large pans should be used on the front
cooking areas.
Always ensure that saucepan handles are positioned safely.
Always take extra care when cooking foods with a high sugar content
eg. jam, as spillage will cause damage to the surface of the
glass.
Always clean spills immediately (see Care and Cleaning).

Care of the Ceramic Hob (continued)
IMPORTANT: As with any cooking appliance there could be some fire
risk attached to the heating of oil, particularly for deep fat frying.
Cooking utensils containing oil must not be left unattended (eg. to
answer the telephone) on or in close proximity to the patterned
cooking areas.
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate
heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one third full with fat or oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking
period.
4. Do not 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 too quickly.
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.
8. Never allow excessive splashing of oil onto the hob.
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:
Safety
requirements for
deep fat frying
1. Switch Off the electricity supply.
NEVER attempt to move the pan - burns and injuries are caused
almost invariably by picking up the burning pan and rushing out
side with it.
2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.
NEVER use a fire extinguisher to put out a pan fire, as the force
of the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over.
NEVER use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.
When smothering the flames DO ENSURE that your FACE and
ARMS are WELL PROTECTED from the flames to save you from
becoming hurt.
3. After the fire has been extinguished LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL
FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT.
4. If you fail to put the fire out, call the fire brigade immediately.
21
Grill Pan and Handle
Grill pan handle
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan, to facilitate cleaning
and storage.
The handle can be either detachable from or fixed to the pan.
For a fixed handle remove the screw and washers from the grill pan
bracket, tilt the handle over the recess adjacent to the bracket (A),
slide it towards the centre of the pan (B) and let the handle locate
over the bracket (C). Replace screw and washers and ensure that
they are fully tightened up. For a detachable handle remove screw
and washers from the grill pan and keep safe.
Please note that if a fixed handle is required, the grill pan cannot
be kept in the Fan Oven with the door closed but may be stored in
the Top Oven when the appliance is not in use.
Warning: Ensure when using grill pan handle in the detachable
manner it is centralised and secure.

Top Oven Cookery Notes
The top oven should be used to cook small quantities of food. The
oven is designed so that the grill element operates at a reduced heat
output, this is combined with a heating element situated underneath
the floor of the oven.
To ensure even cooking of the food it is important that cooking
utensils are positioned correctly on the oven shelf so that the
element is directly above.
There are two cooking positions, the shelf placed on runner 1 or 2
(from the base), do not use shelves upside down.
Food/utensils must not be placed directly on the oven floor.
There should always be at least 25mm (1in) between the top of the
food and the grill element.
Warning: Items stored in top oven will get hot when main oven is in
use.
Operation
To heat the oven, turn the control knob clockwise. The top oven
pilot light will come on and remain on until the oven reaches the
required temperature. The pilot light will automatically go on and
off during cooking as the thermostat maintains the correct
temperature.
Cooking meat/
poultry
Small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3 lbs), or poultry, up to 3.6kg (8 lbs)
(60cm cookers) in weight can be roasted in a small meat pan in the
top oven. Larger joints of meat/poultry weighing more than 3.6kg
(8 lbs) (60cm cookers) should be roasted in the main oven.
Do not use the grill pan as a meat pan in the top oven as air
circulation will be seriously restricted.
Top oven as
a warming
compartment for
plates
Place the plates/dishes on the shelf, positioned on runner 1, turn
the top oven control to 100˚C for 10-15 minutes.
Never use the grill control.
25
Main Oven Cookery Notes
The oven is fitted with ‘Stay clean’ liners and two rod shelves.
To heat the oven turn the knob clockwise, selecting the require
temperature between 80˚C (176˚F) and 230˚C (450˚F) as recommended
in the temperature chart. The pilot light will immediately come on and
remain on until the oven reaches the required temperature. This
light will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven
thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
It should be noted that at the end of the cooking period their 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.
Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly, and generally cooks
food at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating
is often unnecessary. However, foods such as bread, scones,
Yorkshire pudding, do benefit from being placed in a pre-heated
oven.
The ‘oven temperature charts’ 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.
Unless otherwise indicated in the charts food should be placed in a
cold oven, i.e. without pre-heating. If food is placed in an already hot
oven, the suggested cooking time should be reduced, depending on
the type and quantity of food being cooked.
Oven positions
Since the distribution of heat in the circulaire fan oven is very even,
most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, but the
shelves should be evenly spaced.
The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking
large quantities of food. Additional shelves can be purchased
through your oven supplier or our Spares department (see Key
Contents, back cover).
Food or utensils should Never be placed directly an the floor of the
oven for cooking.
Never use more than 3 shelves in the oven as air circulation will be
seriously restricted. To ensure oven circulation do not use meat
pans larger than 390 x 300mm (15”x12”) and baking trays no larger
than 330 x 255mm (13”x 10”), these should be positioned centrally on
the oven shelf. Food should not be placed directly on the floor of the
oven. To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rod shelves which are not in use,
should be removed from the oven.
When all three shelves are used to cook large quantities of food for
home freezing or parties, it may be necessary to increase the cooking
times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for the
loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger
mass of food. Baking trays should have an equal gap at either side of
the oven.
Temperature
and time
Frozen meat
and poultry
Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in
a domestic refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours per 450g (1 lb), or at room
temperature (allowing 2-3 hours per 450g (1 lb).
26
27
Note: If soft margarine is used for cake making, temperatures recommended by the
manufacturers should be followed. Temperatures recommended in this chart refer to
cakes made with block margarines or butter only.
28
Using the Main Oven for other Functions
‘S’ SLOW setting
“Slow” cook is identified as ‘S’ on the oven temperature scale.
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.
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.
Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are:
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.
Operation:
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.
2. Select ‘S’ (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning Main Oven Temperature
Control clockwise ensuring the oven door is fully closed.
Storage and re-heating of food:
1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately, place it in a clean container
and cool as soon as possible.
2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.
3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.
4. Only re-heat food once.
Points to consider when preparing food for “SLOW” cooking:
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.
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2.0kg (4 lb 8oz).
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.
6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. We do not recommend
placing frozen food in the oven to cook.
7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the boil before placing in the oven.
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.
10. Always adjust seasoning before serving.
11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important that the beans are soaked and
then boiled for a minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any
toxins.
12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be necessary to check during cooking to
avoid overcooking.
29
Care and Cleaning
TURN OFF THE MAIN SWITCH AND ENSURE THE COOKER IS COLD
BEFORE CLEANING.
BEFORE SWITCHING ON AGAIN, ENSURE THAT ALL CONTROLS
ARE IN THE OFF POSITION.
NEVER USE BIOLOGICAL WASHING POWDER, HARSH ABRASIVES,
SCOURING PADS, AEROSOL CLEANERS OR OVEN CHEMICAL
CLEANERS OF ANY KIND, UNLESS SPECIFIED BELOW.
Cleaning materials to avoid:
1. Plastic or nylon pads
2. Household abrasive powders and scourers. These may scratch the surface.
3. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.
Caustic cleaners such as these will etch the surface and attack the metal
frame.
4. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF AT THE MAINS SWITCH BEFORE CLEANING.
30
Care and Cleaning
Ceramic hotplates:
Clean your Ceramic hob top regularly and avoid repeated burning of encrusted contamination.
Your choice of cleaner will depend on the degree of soiling involved (see below).
G minor soiling, where the contamination has not burnt hard, can be wiped off with a
clean wet cloth
G major soiling and strongly-adhering burnt encrustation can be quickly and easily
removed with a razor-blade scraper
G hard water stains, grease spots and discoloration having a metallic sheen can be
removed with ‘Easy Do Cleaner Powder’
G always condition hob after cleaning by using ‘Easy Do Conditioner’ or ‘Hob Brite’. Apply
a small amount of conditioner with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Rub vigorously.
Remove excess with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Polish wit h a clean cloth or
paper towel before the conditioner dries.
Detergent residues must always be completely removed with a clean wet cloth, (even if the
instructions for use suggest otherwise), as they can have an etching effect when reheated.
Then wipe dry.
To maintain hob in good condition, we would recommend regular use of the ‘Easy Do
Powder Cleanser’.
Sprinkle Powder Cleanser on a clean damp cloth or paper towel and rub vigorously for 3 to 4
minutes. Remove all residue with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Then use conditioner
to protect the hob.
For more stubborn marks, mix a small amount of the powder cleanser with ‘Jif Lemon
Juice’ (from a bottle) and carefully spread over the affected area. Cover with a damp
paper towel and leave for a minimum of 15 minutes. Rub vigorously. Remove excess with a
clean damp cloth or paper towel before the conditioner dries. Polish with a clean cloth or
paper towel.
Easy Do products are available from many electrical retailers and our Parts Department.
Homecare ‘Hob Brite’ is available from leading Supermarkets.
31
Care and Cleaning
‘STAY CLEAN’ Oven liners
Refer to the instructions below for cleaning the ‘Stay clean’ panels.
How “STAY CLEAN” works:
The surfaces of the ‘Stay clean’ oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a special
vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220˚C (425˚F) or above, the
special surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature the
more effective it is. In most cases normal cooking operations at this temperature will permit
this cleaning operation to proceed during cooking. However if higher cooking temperatures
are not used regularly it may be necessary in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven
without a meat pan at maximum setting for a couple of hours.
Main Oven Liners

sides
It should not normally be necessary to clean the ‘Stay clean’ panels in water. If the user feels it is
desirable to do so, wash them in warm soapy water, followed by rinsing in clean water. Do not
use enzyme/biological washing powder, harsh abrasives or oven chemical cleaners of any
kind.
Decorative trims (all models):
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build up of soiling which
may detract from the appearance of the cooker. The recommended method of cleaning is to
wipe over the trims with a soft cloth wrung out in hot 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.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners/powders which may scratch the surface.
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.
Control Panel:
Wipe with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.
Stainless trims:
Regularly wipe with a clean, damp cloth and polish with a clean dry cloth.
Grill Door:
Wipe over the grill door decorative outer panel; with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water,
then after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive powder which may scratch the surface.
Ensure that the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.
32
Care and Cleaning
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 floor of
the compartment.
Main oven:
1. Glass Door – open the oven door fully. The glass panel may now be cleaned.
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad.
Do not use scouring pads, or abrasive powder, which will scratch the glass. Ensure that
the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.
For slight soiling the inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm.
For removing stubborn stains see next page.
2. Remove the rod shelves and meat pan.
Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the rod shelves, meat pan
and the floor of the oven. Refer to the instructions on previous page for cleaning the
‘Stay clean’ panels.
Do not use aerosol cleaners on this oven as they could adversely affect the fan motor unit,
and cannot be wiped off the fan blade.
Replacement oven lamp:
WARNING: To avoid electric shocks - please ensure that the electricity supply to the appliance is
switched off and the appliance is fully cold, before removing the lamp lens.
Open the oven door and remove the rod shelves. Using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers
