This appliance must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions,
local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, AS/NZS5601 and any other relevant
statutory regulations. Particular attention shall be given to the requirements regarding
ventilation. Read the instructions before installing or using the appliance
The appliance is designed for either high or low level installations. Failure to install the
appliance correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims and lead to prosecution.
Please refer to the methods of installation within this handbook.
Our policy is one of continuous development and improvement. Specifications and illustrations
may change subsequent to publication.
Data label.
The data label is located on the right hand side front of the oven compartment, behind the oven
door. A duplicate data label is supplied to adhere to an accessible area next to the appliance.
Ensure that the gas supply is Universal LPG. This appliance is designed for use with Universal
LPG and should not be converted for use with any other gas.
Provision of Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in a 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 a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present. The room containing the appliance must have an air supply in
accordance with local and national Regulations.
Position
This appliance must be positioned free from draughts, which may affect the combustion and in
a manner that will prevent the accumulation of unburnt gas. When in use ensure that air vents
are not inadvertently blocked or shut off.
INTRODUCTION
This appliance is designed to be installed as a cooking appliance in Marine
Craft, Motor-homes or in Caravans. It shall NOT be used as a space heater.
Before using the appliance for the first time, remove all accessories and
packing in the grill and oven, including any surface protection film, ie
plastic coating. Clean all interior surfaces with hot soapy water to remove
any residual protective covering of oil, then rinse and wipe carefully.

Burner operation
The burners on this appliance have fixed aeration and no adjustment is required. The burners
should flame as follows:-
Universal LPG - Normally on initial lighting the flames may have yellow tips and this
increases slightly as the burners heat up.
OPERATION
This appliance is not to be used by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction.
Warning: The appliance and its accessible parts become hot during
use. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements.
Children less than 8 years of age shall be kept away unless
continuously supervised.
This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an
external timer or separate remote-control system.
Glass lids may shatter when heated. Turn off all burners
before shutting the lid
Spillage on the surface of the lid should be removed
before opening the lid.
Do not use harsh abrasives cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean
the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may
result in shattering of the glass.
Steam cleaners and pressure washers are not to be used on this
appliance.
Do not store flammable materials either in or under the appliance.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance whilst it in
operation.
Although each burner will support pans from 10 to 22cm, care
should be taken not to overload the appliance as reduced
performance may result.
When using small pans the flames should not spread beyond the
base of the pan as this will reduce the efficiency of the burner.
Avoid old or misshapen pans as these may cause instability.
The glass lid must be opened fully prior to using the hotplate.

Using the Hotplate Gas Burners
1. Ensure gas cylinder/supply is connected and turned on. In the event of a gas smell turn off
at gas cylinder/mains and contact supplier.
2. Flame supervision: Each burner is controlled individually and is monitored by a
thermocouple probe. In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn
off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.
3. To light: Push in the control knob and turn to full rate –large flame ( ). Hold a lighted
match or taper to the burner and push the control knob in and hold. It is necessary to hold
the knob depressed after the burner has ignited for approximately 10 - 15 seconds, to allow
the thermocouple probe to reach temperature, before releasing the knob. Should the flame
go out when the knob is released, the procedure should be repeated holding the knob
depressed for slightly longer.
4. For models fitted with Spark Ignition the procedure is similar except that the burner can be
ignited by depressing the ignition button, which is located on the fascia. If the burner has
not lit within 15 seconds the control knob should be released and the burner left for at least
1 minute before a further attempt to ignite the burner.
5. For simmering, turn the knob further anti-clockwise to the low rate position.
6. To turn off: Turn the control knob until the line on the control knob is aligned with the dot on
the control panel. Always make sure the control knob is in the off position when you have
finished using the hotplate burners.

Using the Electric Hotplate
Ensure the electricity is switched on.
The hotplate control is numbered from 1 to 6. To turn it on, rotate the knob either clockwise or
anti-clockwise to the required position. Position 1 is the coolest setting. To turn the hotplate off,
rotate the knob until the line or pointer on the knob lines up with the zero on the control panel.
The hotplate is a sealed construction and transfers heat through conduction. For maximum
efficiency a correctly sized pan with a flat heavy gauge base should be used. Pan size should
be the same or slightly larger (up to 1” / 2.5 cm oversize).
Before using your hotplate for the first time, we recommend that you prime and then season it.
To prime the Hotplate
Switch on the hotplate for a short period, without a pan, to harden and burn off the coating.
Use a medium to high setting for 3 –5 minutes. A non toxic smoke may occur during this
process so allow good ventilation to disperse the smoke. Allow the hotplate to cool, then
season as follows:
To season the Hotplate
First heat the hotplate for 30 seconds on a medium setting, and then switch off. Pour a minimal
amount of unsalted vegetable oil onto a clean dry cloth or paper towel, and apply a thin coat of
oil to the hotplate surface. Wipe off any excess oil, then heat the hotplate on a medium setting
for 1 minute and allow cooling once more. The hotplate is then ready for use. Occasional
seasoning will help to maintain the Hotplate’s appearance.
OPERATION
Glass lids may shatter when heated. Turn off the hotplate and
allow it to cool before closing the glass lid.
Remove all spillage from the surface of the glass lid before
opening.
Depending on specification, your appliance may be fitted with a
glass lid shut-off system, which cuts off the power to all hotplate
burners (gas and electric) if the lid is closed.
Ensure the glass lid is in the open and upright position before
turning on the hotplate burners.
Not all models are fitted with the shut-off system.
