Installing the oven
For your safety
This oven must be installed and serviced by a competent person
as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) (Amendment)
regulations current edition.
It is important that the oven is suitable for your gas supply.
Your installer should check the data badge.
Cabinet Dimensions
This oven must be fitted into a cabinet with a suitable sized aperture.
Minimum aperture height
Minimum aperture width
Minimum aperture depth
874mm
560mm
560mm
For more details on suitable cabinet sizes refer to the Installation and
Servicing Instructions supplied with your oven.
Location
For your safety
All gas ovens require adequate ventilation. The room the oven is
fitted in must have a good air supply that meets the standard BS
5440 Part 2 (current edition). Your installer will tell you if you are
not sure.
The oven may be placed in a kitchen, kitchen/diner or bedsit
but not in a bathroom or shower room. It should not be installed
in a bedsit smaller than 20m3. (Ask your installer).

General information
To get the best results from your new oven please read these
instructions carefully.
You should pay particular attention to cooking times and gas mark
settings as these may differ from your previous oven. You may find it
necessary to adjust these until you are more familiar with the oven.
For your safety
Do not block any of the oven vents.
Never line any part of the oven 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 oven.
Oven housing units vary widely in construction and finish. To avoid
possible damage to the housing unit, you must not leave cabinet doors
or flaps above the oven open or partially open when you use the grill or
oven. If you have a storage area above your oven it will become warm
when you use the oven. Do not store perishable foods in the storage
area above the oven.
The cooling fan for the controls
Your oven has a cooling fan. The cooling fan will start to work as soon
as you light the grill or oven. You will be able to hear the fan when it is
working.
The cooling fan may continue to work after you have turned off the
oven or grill. It will switch itself on and off until the oven has cooled
down.
If you want to turn off the electrical supply to the oven, you should
not do so until the cooling fan has stopped working.
For your safety
When you are using the grill or oven warm air will exhaust from
the grill cavity and the vents below the control panel.
Take care not to stand too close to the oven or grill while in use.
5
Z D G 5 8
Ignition
The grill and oven burners light automatically when you turn on the
control. If, for any reason either of the burners go out, the spark ignition
will automatically relight it.
Please note:
You can only use the grill with the door fully or partially open. You
cannot use the grill when the door is closed.
You cannot use the oven or grill in the event of a power failure.
Oven lights
Your oven is fitted with two oven lights.
The oven lights will come on when you use the oven.
Oven light bulbs will usually last for many months. If one or both lights
do not work, you probably need to replace a bulb. See page 34 for
details on how to change an oven light bulb.
Connecting to the electricity supply
For your safety
This cooker must be earthed and protected by a 3 amp fuse.
The plug supplied with the oven can be fitted directly to a suitable three
pin earthed socket.
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.
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 oven 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 oven and tell your installer.

you leave the oven.
When you are turning off a burner do not leave the oven until
the flame has gone out.
8
Z D G 5 8
The grill
When you first turn the grill on you will be able to smell residues from
the grill surface being burnt off. It may be necessary to open a window
for ventilation.
The smell will disappear after using the grill a few times.
Heat control
The grill gives variable heat settings.
The control knob turns to the left from
'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. The high
setting should be used for fast cooking such
as toast. Use a lower setting to cook thicker
foods such as chicken after it has been
browned on the high setting.
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.
The grill pan should be used on the shelf without the metal plate
underneath it. The shelf can be positioned in any of the runner
positions. You can reverse the grill pan grid to suit different types of
food.
If you close the door whilst the grill burner is lit, it will go out and you
will hear a continuous 'sparking'. The burner will automatically re-light
when you open the door.
For your safety
You must keep the grill door fully or partially open when the grill
burner is lit.
Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used.
Young children should be kept away.
9
Z D G 5 8
Cooking positions
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
the grill shelf. This is useful when you are
browning the top of food such as cauliflower
cheese.
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.
Putting food on the grid
Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and
muffins towards the centre of the grid. If you
put food outside this area it may require
rotating during cooking.
Place food which needs a more gentle
heat, such as tomatoes or mushrooms
towards the edge of the grid.
Arrange meat, meat products and fish to
suit their thickness and how you like them
cooked.
To prevent excess fat splashing when you use the grill place the trivet in
the grill pan below the grill grid.
10
Z D G 5 8
Grill shelf
The grill shelf can be slotted into place in any of two positions. For
safety the shelf will only pull out so far. If you want to remove the 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 onto the runner, lower the front edge and slide the
shelf in.
You should use the shelf without the
metal plate when grilling.
Use shelf position one when toasting and
adjust the height of the grid to suit.
Shelf positions are counted from the top
downwards.
For your safety
Always remove the grill pan before attempting to adjust the shelf
position. Oven gloves should be used when removing the grill
pan or pulling the shelf in and out.
Always remove the grill pan handle during grilling.
11
Z D G 5 8
The grill pan and handle
The grill pan has a removable handle. This should be removed during
grilling.
To attach the handle, press the button on the handle with your thumb.
Lift the handle upwards slightly and put it into the widest part of the grill
pan bracket. Move the handle to the left and lower into position. You
can now release the button. Make sure the handle is firmly located.
When you remove the handle, press the button on the handle with your
thumb and lift the handle upwards slightly and towards the right to
remove it from the grill pan bracket.
For your safety
Make sure your hand is protected when removing the grill pan
handle as the grill can become very hot.
Always make sure you remove the grill pan handle when grilling.
If left in position it will get hot.
To sit the grill pan on the shelf correctly, make sure that the cut out on
the underside of the handle bracket sits over the front bar of the shelf.
12
Z D G 5 8
To check the progress of the food when using the grill you should
withdraw the grill pan on the shelf to attend to food. After removing the
grill pan you can rest it on a heat resistant work surface if you need to.
Plate warming
You can use the grill compartment to warm plates while the oven is on.
Do not place plates to warm under the grill when it is on as this may
damage the plates.
13
Z D G 5 8
The oven
Before you use the oven you should wipe it
out with a damp cloth to remove any dust.
When you first turn the oven on you will be
able to smell residues from the oven
surfaces being burnt off. It may be necessary
to open a window for ventilation.
The smell will disappear after using the oven a few times.
Heat zones
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 requiring different
temperatures all at the same time. You can use the base of the oven to
warm plates.
If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example
cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking. Or you could
remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to
the higher shelf to finish cooking.
Preheating
You do not need to preheat the oven for casseroling and so on.
Preheat the oven 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 need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for
20 minutes.
14
Z D G 5 8
Oven shelves
The two oven shelves can be slotted into place in any of 5 positions. 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 onto the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in.
The shelf positions are counted from the
top downwards and recommended shelf
positions are given in the cooking charts on
pages 18, 19 and 20. When cooking always
try to leave at least one runner position
between shelves to allow the heat to
circulate properly.
The recommended shelf positions given in the oven cooking charts give
the best results.
When you only need to use one shelf you can store the other shelf
above or below the one you are using where there is more space.
Use the shelf with the metal plate in a higher runner position when
cooking on two levels.
15
Z D G 5 8
Baking trays and dishes
For your safety
Never place cooking dishes, trays
and so on over the oven burner.
This will damage the oven as well
as the ovenware and possibly the
cabinet underneath the oven.
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.
The baking tray we have supplied with your oven has been designed
and tested to give the best results from your oven. If you use a tray or
tin which is larger than this, you may need to turn it around during
cooking.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf. You may need to turn
large items around during cooking.
Condensation
Condensation may form on the oven. 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.

Oven cooking chart
These instructions are for cooking in the oven after it has been pre-heated for 20 minutes.
When you are using both shelves, use the shelf with the metal plate in the higher position.
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.

Slow cooking
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.
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 Do not cook meat joints over 2.7kg (6lb).
l Do not cook poultry over 2kg (4lb 8oz).
l Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or above.
l Cook stuffing separately.
l Cook for at least 6 hours.
l Only cook joints of pork if you can make sure, by using a meat
thermometer, that the temperature inside the joint is at least 88oC.
l For good air circulation always stand joints on a rack in the roasting
tin or casserole
l Thaw all frozen meat and poultry before you cook it.
l Prime cuts of meat do not benefit from slow cooking.
l Cut off unwanted fat and skin unless it is browned first.
21
Z D G 5 8
Soups, casseroles and stews
l Do not cook casseroles over 3kg (6lb).
l Do not cook two (1.8kg) (2lb) casseroles on slow cook setting at the
same time.
l Cook in the middle of the oven or above.
l Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.
l Cook for up to 9 hours.
Vegetables
l Cut into small pieces.
l Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15
minutes before adding to any dish.
l To prevent vegetables from discolouring, add lemon juice.
l Place vegetables under meat in casseroles.
l Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.
l Cook for up to 6 hours.
Milk puddings
l Make the pudding in the usual way.
l For delicate puddings such as egg custard, place the dish in a bain
marie and cover the dish with tin foil.
l Cook for 2 - 4 hours.
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 it at the end of cooking.
Flavouring
Flavours are held in the food because there is little evaporation. Adjust
flavouring at the end of the cooking time.
22
Z D G 5 8
Liquid
Use slightly less liquid as there is little evaporation during cooking.
Milk and milk products, for example cream
Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling.
Reheating
Cool left over food quickly and then put it in the fridge.
Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food in the usual
way or in a microwave.
Only reheat food once.

you're familiar with the procedure. We have
supplied a plastic card as a quick reference
when setting the timer.
Selector
Setting knob
If the oven is switched off on the wall, or there is a loss of power, the
clock will stop and you will not be able to use the oven. When you first
switch the electricity supply on, the timer display will flash.
During the hours of 10p.m. (22.00hrs) and 6a.m. the display will glow
dim. If a function is selected the display will glow brighter until the
function is complete. It will then revert back to the dim mode.
To set the time of day
Turn and hold the selector knob to clock.

Automatic control
When you use the automatic controls for the first time it's probably best
to choose a time when you are at home. That way you can check to
make sure you've set everything correctly and you'll feel much more
confident when you are away from home in the future.
Setting the controls for automatic use
This is very easy. All you have to do is work through the steps below.

Hints and tips for automatic cooking
1 Check the instructions for setting the automatic controls until you are
familiar with the timer operation.
2 If the oven has been used, allow it to cool completely before using
for automatic cooking.
3 You should leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible
before automatic cooking starts.
4 Do not leave food to stand in the oven when it has finished cooking.
You should remove it and if it is not going to be eaten at once, cool it
quickly.
5 If you cannot remove food from the oven as soon as it is cooked
make sure that the food is covered.
6 Choose perishable foods carefully, especially during warm weather.
7 Food should be fresh and preferably straight from the refrigerator.
8 Joints of meat and poultry must be completely thawed.
9 Dishes containing left over cooked meat or poultry should not be
cooked automatically if there is a delay period.
10 Choose dishes which require approximately the same cooking time.
Slight variations may be allowed by:-
i) placing foods in larger or smaller containers
ii) using more or less liquid
iii) cutting fruit or vegetables into larger or smaller pieces.
These will give longer or shorter cooking times respectively. Further
temperature adjustments can be made by placing the foods higher
or lower in the oven as the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom.
11 Arrange shelf positions to suit dishes and choose dishes which will
fit into the oven together.
12 As food may be standing for some time in the oven, cover dishes
with foil or a lid where possible, and in the case of roast potatoes
and joints of meat, brush with a little fat or oil. Lemon juice may be
added to fruit and vegetables to prevent browning.
13 Cream should be added just before serving.
14 If alcohol is used fermentation can occur.
15 Green leaf vegetables which take only a short time to cook, should
not be placed into the oven with the automatic meal. It is far better to
cook them in a pan on the hotplate whilst dishing up the rest of the
meal.

Care and cleaning
For your safety
For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas oven
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 cooker.
Clean your oven 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 oven for cleaning do not plunge
them into water whilst they are very hot as this may damage the finish of
the parts.
You must not remove the control knobs when cleaning the control
panel.
The grill
Clean the grill compartment, the shelf, grill pan and handle, grid and
trivet, and the inner grill door while they are still slightly warm. This way
you can easily remove any splashes and spills. Clean them with a cloth
that has been wrung out in soapy water. You may use mild abrasives
such as 'Jif'. For more stubborn marks you may occasionally need to
use a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
28
Z D G 5 8
The oven
Clean the base of the oven, the oven shelves, the meat tin, cake tray,
and the oven door while they are still slightly warm. This way you can
easily remove any splashes and spills. You may use mild abrasives.
The heat in the oven will change the colour of the metal plate on the
shelf. You must not remove the solid plate from the shelf. You can soak
the shelf for a few minutes in hot soapy water to make cleaning easier.
If you use any oven cleaners on the oven base they must have the
Vitreous Enamel Development Council (VEDC) seal of approval. Follow
the instructions on the cleaning agent and protect the oven burner with
aluminium foil to prevent it from becoming blocked. Do not use any
cleaning products on the top, sides and back of your oven.
The top, 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 use 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
Z D G 5 8
Oven cleaning cycle
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 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.
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.

Cleaning between the outer and inner
door glass
You can remove the glass from the oven and grill doors if you need to.
The grill door is fitted with a trim. You must note the correct position of
the trim when you remove the grill door glass.
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.
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. Still holding the door
glass, remove the trim from the top of the grill door.
Note the correct position of the grill door trim. The oven door does
not have a trim.
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.
5 Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water and mild
abrasives such as 'Jif'.
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.
Push the top of the glass towards the door, and make sure the
screw location holes line up. Replace the trim on top of the grill door
making sure that it is correctly positioned. You can check this by
looking through the air gap on the top of the door and checking that
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.

OR CERAMIC CONNECTION TERMINAL BLOCKS
AND/OR INSULATION TAPE.
If the supply cable is replaced it is recommended that
the ends of the new cable all be cut to the same
length 60mm, any excess wire being stored inside the
mains terminal see Fig.7.
Should the supplied cable be required to be threaded
through small apertures in the cabinets it can be
removed from the mains inlet terminal block see Fig.7.
If the supplied plug is cut off dispose of it safely as it
will be a shock hazard if inserted into a 13 amp socket
elsewhere in the house.
