The cooker must be connected by a competent person such as one who is a, NICEIC registered contractor to a  
suitable double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of 32A and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm  
(applicable to newer properties, older properties where a 30A double pole control unit and a minimum contact  
clearance of 3mm is acceptable).  
The double pole control unit should be fitted adjacent to the cooker, in accordance with IEE regulations. The  
control unit must be within 2 metres of but not directly above the appliance and should be easily accessible in  
the event of an emergency.  
The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a conductor size of 6mm2, minimum.  
Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the rear access cover. The mains cable must pass  
through the cable clamp adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable should be used to allow the cooker to  
be pulled out for servicing.  
Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any brackets affixed to the rear panel and is not  
trapped to the rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between cabinets.  
Levelling  
Four feet are fitted which can be adjusted up or down to set the height (900mm - 930mm) and level the cooker.  
The feet can be simply screwed in or out to lower or raise the cooker.  
After the correct height is achieved, lock the feet into position by tightening the locking nut using an open  
ended spanner.  
CAUTION: Some soft floor coverings may get damaged if the cooker is not moved carefully.  
NOTE: Ensure oven shelves are level by using a spirit level on the rod shelves.

OVEN TIMER OPERATION  
Note: Timer must be set to 'Time of Day' and 'Manual' before the oven can be used.  
AUTOMATIC COOKING  
The Main Oven can be controlled by the Automatic Timer.  
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING  
1. Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.  
2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the food is ready  
when you require it.  
3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.  
4. Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as possible.  
5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for automatic cooking, keep the  
delay time to a minimum.  
6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could cause the oven to be  
warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.  
7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g. Shepherd's Pie, should  
not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay period.  
8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in food.  
9. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it is best to add  
these ingredients just before serving.  
10.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.  
11.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.  
12.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.  
13.Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.  
14.Only reheat food once.

Temperatures  
The recommended temperatures given are for conventional and fan ovens. When using  
a fan oven it will be necessary to reduce the cooking time by 10 minutes per hour and  
lower the temperature by up to 20°C. Also, in the majority of cases, it is not necessary  
to pre-heat the oven. However, pre-heating is recommended when cooking items such  
as Yorkshire puddings, whisked sponges and bread. Your experience with the cooker  
will enable you to select the cooking time and temperature best suited for your recipe.  
Condensation  
Condensation may become evident on the inner door and water may drip through the  
vent. This is normal when heat and moisture are present and may be a result of any of  
the following:  
1. Kitchen temperature and ventilation.  
2. The moisture content of the food eg. meat, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding,  
roasting meat, etc.  
3. The quantity of the food being cooked at any one time.

The Working of the Heating Zones  
Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The 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.  
Choice of Saucepans  
It is essential that the saucepan's you use on the ceramic hob are suitable.  
ALWAYS USE:  
Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.  
saucepan's manufactured from aluminium (enamelled or machined) or stainless  
steel.  
Correct size saucepan's. The base of the pan must cover the heating zone  
completely.  
saucepan's with lids which are well fitting to reduce cooking time and energy use.  
NEVER USE:  
Pans with thin, distorted or uneven bases as these will extend cooking times, waste  
electricity and cause damaging, local hotspots on the glass surface.  
Pans with ridged or recessed bases.  
Pans with damaged or rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.  
Glass or glass ceramic utensils.

CARE OF THE  
CERAMIC HOB  
Do Not  
In order to keep your ceramic hob in good condition, follow these simple  
guidelines:  
Do not  
Do not  
stare at halogen heating units.  
cook directly on the hob surface without a cooking utensil, as this will result  
in damage to the surface of the hob.  
Do not  
Do not  
use the hob as a worktop surface as damage may occur to the smooth  
surface of the hob.  
drag or slide utensils on the hob surface, as this will cause scratches in the  
surface of the hob.  
Do not  
Do not  
allow a cooking utensil to come into contact with the hob surround.  
place anything between the base of the utensil and the ceramic  
hob, e.g. do not use asbestos mats, aluminium or wok stand.  
leave any utensils, food or combustible items on the hob when it  
is not in use.  
Do not  
Do not  
Do not  
place aluminium or plastic foil, or plastic containers on the hob.  
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.  
Do  
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.  
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  
Always  
ensure that saucepan handles are positioned safely.  
take extra care when cooking foods with a high sugar content eg. jam, as  
spillage will cause damage to the surface of the glass.  
clean spills immediately (see Care and Cleaning).  
Always

CARE OF THE  
CERAMIC HOB  
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 (e.g. 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.  
Safety requirements for deep fat frying  
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:  
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 outside 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 you 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.

HIGH SPEED GRILL  
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use - children should be  
kept away.  
Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The high speed grill is  
designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker because it takes less time to warm  
up from cold. Conventional grills require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed  
beneath them, but for normal grilling the high speed grill can be used from cold  
without any pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved by  
preheating the grill for about 1 minute.  
Note:  
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh. This stops you  
from touching live parts.  
DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh as this could  
damage or break the element tubes OR if the grill is on cause an electric shock.  
During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it while the grill is  
still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and wait until it has cooled down before  
cleaning.  
Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted - DO NOT store the grill  
pan handle on the grill pan grid when the rod shelf is in the top runner position.  
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the right. You can choose  
to have both sides on or just the left side on. Turning the control knob clockwise, will  
switch both sides on. Turning it anticlockwise, will only switch the left side on. The  
numbers which are displayed indicate the heat setting. Number 4 is the hottest and  
number 1 the coolest.  
GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE GRILL/TOP OVEN  
DOOR CLOSED - This will cause overheating.  
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the '0' Off  
position.  
Grilling procedure  
1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.  
2. Position rod shelf as recommended in the chart (next page) for food being cooked.  
3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is positioned centrally under the  
element.  
4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause overheating of fat in  
the grill pan.

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 ‘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.  
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.  
WARNING! Ensure when using grill pan handle in the detachable manner it is centralised and secure.

TOP OVEN -  
CONVENTIONAL COOKING  
The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the grill element and  
the element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts  
of meat in casseroles etc. but can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg  
(3lb).  
The operation of the controls is covered on “The Controls”.  
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.  
The top oven can be used either independently to cook small quantities of food or in  
conjunction with the main oven to provide additional cooking space.  
The shelf should be positioned on the first or second runner from the bottom.  
To use the oven proceed as follows:  
Set the top oven control to the required temperature, the top oven light will come on  
and wait for the thermostat light to go off, indicating that the oven has reached the  
right temperature.  
The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre of the shelf with a gap of at  
least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill element. This should avoid burning and  
ensure even cooking.  
Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the oven.  
25 mm (1 in)  
Platewarming in the top oven  
Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated when the main oven  
is in use.  
When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being cooked on the  
hob, place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf using the bottom runner and turn  
the top oven control to approximately 100°C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all  
that is required to heat the plates and dishes.  
NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven for cooking or warming  
plates and dishes.  
WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items which could be  
affected by heat into the oven.

MAIN OVEN  
- FAN COOKING  
The heat for fan cooking in the main oven is provided by an element situated at the  
back of the oven, around the fan Fan cooking is ideal for large poultry or joints of  
meat, reducing cooking times and often eliminating the need for pre-heating the oven.  
It is also ideal for batch cooking where food is cooked on more than one level,  
because the forced circulation of hot air gives an even temperature from the top to the  
bottom of the oven.  
The operation of the controls is covered on "The Controls".  
See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.  
To use the oven proceed as follows:  
The shelves should be evenly spaced. To avoid unnecessary cleaning, shelves  
which are not in use should be removed from the oven.  
Set the main oven control to the required temperature. Preheating is not normally  
necessary, but some foods such as bread, scones and Yorkshire pudding do  
benefit from being placed in a hot oven (see cooking charts).  
Place the food to be cooked in the centre of each shelf to allow for even air  
circulation around the food.  
WARNING! The oven is  
provided with a stop sys-  
tem to extract the racks  
and prevent them from  
coming out of the oven.(1)  
As shown in the drawing,  
to extract them comple-  
tely, simply lift the racks,  
holding them on the front  
part, and pull (2).

USING THE SLOW  
COOK SETTING 'S'  
'S' SLOW setting  
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.  
Bearing in mind these advantages, it makes sense to cook larger quantities of food than required  
and store them in a freezer to be used cold or for re-heating. It is important to follow the guidelines  
given for preparing food using the Slow Setting 'S'.  
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.  
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.  
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 meat 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 food first with foil and  
then the lid 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.Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and should be included in day cooking  
sessions, where they can be checked from time to time.

thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period.The  
meat thermometer will indicate when the required internal temp has been reached.

CARE AND CLEANING  
WARNING: BEFORE CLEANING, SWITCH THE COOKER OFF AT THE MAINS COOKER  
CONTROL PANEL AND ALLOW IT TO COOL. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE OVENS ARE  
CLEANED AND KEPT FREE FROM FATS, OIL AND GREASE.  
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.  
! Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning  
product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or  
sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to  
crack.  
! The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery (even in your dishwasher).  
Cleaning of the Ceramic Hob  
Always  
Always  
clean spills immediately. If the hob is reused before cleaning, spillage will be  
baked on and be very difficult to remove.  
switch the cooker OFF at the cooker control panel.  
To minimise cleaning:  
Always  
Always  
take care and avoid spills.  
use a Ceramic Hob Cleaner-Conditioner whenever cleaning is done. The  
Cleaner-Conditioner forms a protective film on the hob and contains a mild  
detergent which makes cleaning easier. Hotpoint has a Cleaner-Conditioner  
which can be obtained, either through a local Hotpoint Service Centre or  
retailer, part no.6004.  
To clean off stubborn stains, the following can be used when the surface has cooled:  
1. Cif, non-scratch cream cleaner.  
2. Heavy soil can be removed from the surface by carefully using a glass scraper.  
3. Hard water stains, grease spots and any discolouration having a metallic sheen can  
be removed with Solvol Autogol Super or any non abrasive stainless steel cleaner.  
After cleaning, always use the Cleaner-Conditioner and finish it off by polishing with a  
clean, dry paper towel.  
Never  
use abrasive or chemical oven cleaners as they can damage the surface of  
the hob.  
The visual effect of any scratches which may occur in use can be minimised by the  
use of Cleaner-Conditioner. Such scratches cannot be removed but do not affect the  
function of the hob in any way.

CONTROL PANEL AND ALLOW IT TO COOL. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE OVENS ARE  
CLEANED AND KEPT FREE FROM FATS, OIL AND GREASE.  
'Stay Clean' Liners  
'Stay Clean' liners are covered with a special enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At  
higher temperatures the soiling is slowly destroyed. In most cases normal cooking at  
higher temperatures will permit this cleaning to take place automatically. However, if  
higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly then it may be necessary, in order  
to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven at maximum temperature for at least two  
hours, from time to time. The 'Stay Clean' liners can be washed in warm soapy water  
followed by rinsing in clear water. Dry well with a soft cloth.  
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh abrasives or chemical oven  
cleaners of any kind.  
Oven Fittings  
Oven Interiors  
The oven shelves can be cleaned either in a dishwasher or by using a fine steel wool  
soap pad. The grill and meat pans can be cleaned in warm soapy water using a fine  
steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains or in a dishwasher.  
They should be cleaned after each use.  
To clean the oven interiors remove all the oven fittings and where applicable the 'Stay  
Clean' liners.  
All types of oven cleaners can be used, but do not allow abrasive cleaners or oven  
spray to come into contact with the 'Stay Clean' liners. Use a fine steel wool soap pad  
to remove stubborn stains.  
Oven Door Cleaning  
Cooker Exterior  
The inner door glass panel can be removed for easy cleaning, see “Care and  
Cleaning”.  
The outside of the cooker should be cleaned regularly to keep it looking like new.  
Wipe over with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water and dry with a soft clean cloth.  
You can use mild non abrasive cleaners but always read the manufacturer's  
instructions first. Always test their suitability on a small area of the cooker not  
noticeable in normal use.  
NOTE: DO NOT use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the  
surface.  
Wear protective gloves when cleaning any part of your cooker.

CARE AND CLEANING  
Door and Control Panel (Glass)  
Regularly wipe with a clean, damp cloth and polish with a clean, dry cloth.  
High Speed Grill  
To clean the high speed grill, use a clean, damp, soapy cloth and wipe over. If  
stubborn stains remain, gently clean with a well soaped nylon scouring pad and wipe  
over with a damp cloth.  
NOTE: DO NOT use metal cleaning utensils, wire wool or proprietary oven  
cleaners on the grill element mesh.  
WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, BEFORE REPLACING THE OVEN  
LIGHT, SWITCH THE COOKER OFF AT THE COOKER CONTROL UNIT (and  
allow to cool if the oven has been used).  
Replacement of the Oven Light  
Unscrew the glass cover, using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers and remove  
carefully. Unscrew the existing light bulb, and remove. Screw the new bulb into  
position and replace the glass cover, with metal washer, until positioned securely.  
! Do not use the oven lamp as/ for ambient lighting.

CARE AND CLEANING  
CLEANING THE DOORS  
Take particular care not to damage the inner surface of the door inner glass that is coated with a heat  
reflective layer. 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.  
Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. For slight soiling the inner glass panel  
may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from the door. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft  
cloth.  
SIDE OPENING DOORS  
Cleaning the door glass is the same as the drop down doors, except take care to support the weight of the  
inner glass when removing and refitting.  
DROP DOWN DOORS  
Remove the door inner glass as follows.  
1. Open the door fully and remove the extrusion end caps (This should be done by hand but if it proves too  
difficult, simply lift the inner glass to ease the end caps out of position).  
NOTE: If you need to use a tool - be careful not to damage the extrusion or end cap.  
Top filler cap  
Remove both screws to  
remove top filler cap  
2. Carefully slide the inner glass towards you and withdraw it from its locating slots. Ensure that the door is not  
allowed to slam shut, due to the reduction in door weight. Clean the glass as described above.  
3. The inside of the outer door glass can now be cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.  
Refit the door inner glass as follows.  
1. Open the door fully.  
2. Locate the inner door glass into its slots, so that the printing is readable from the face nearest the oven in  
the closed position and the widest black band is towards the bottom of the door. The inner door glass has a  
special reflective coating on one side, in order to minimise surface temperatures and energy consumption  
during use, it is important it is fitted correctly.  
3. Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it will go and replace the end caps.  
NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.

Respecting and conserving the  
environment  
Disposal of your product  
To minimise the risk of injury to children please  
dispose of your product carefully and safely.  
Remove all doors and lids. Remove the mains cable  
(where fitted) by cutting off flush with the appliance  
and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition  
where it could be connected to the electricity  
supply.  
Whenever possible, avoid pre-heating the oven  
and always try to fill it. Open the oven door as little  
as possible because heat is lost every time it is  
opened. To save a substantial amount of energy,  
simply switch off the oven 5 to 10 minutes before the  
end of your planned cooking time and use the heat  
the oven continues to generate.  
To help the environment, Local Authority instructions  
should be followed for the disposal of your product.  
• Keep gaskets clean and tidy to prevent any door  
energy losses  
Disposal of old electrical appliances  
• If you have a timed tariff electricity contract, the “delay  
cooking” option will make it easier to save money by  
moving operation to cheaper time periods.  
• Make the most of your hot plate's residual heat by  
switching off cast iron hot plates 10 minutes before the  
end of your cooking time and glass ceramic hot plates  
5 minutes before the end of cooking time.  
• The base of your pot or pan should cover the hot plate.  
If it is smaller, precious energy will be wasted and  
pots that boil over leave encrusted remains that can  
be difficult to remove.  
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),  
requires that old household electrical appliances  
must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted  
municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be  
collected separately in order to optimise the  
recovery and recycling of the materials they contain  
and reduce the impact on human health and the  
environment.  
• Cook your food in closed pots or pans with well-fitting  
lids and use as little water as possible. Cooking with  
the lid off will greatly increase energy consumption  
• Use purely flat pots and pans  
The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the  
product reminds you of your obligation, that when  
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately  
collected.  
• If you are cooking something that takes a long time,  
it's worth using a pressure cooker, which is twice as  
fast and saves a third of the energy.  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct  
disposal of their old appliance.
