Eco Range Range cooker Installation Instructions & User Manual - page 4
General use:
Adjust time clock if fitted to the desired times, (usually the same as you central heating). Leave the
cooker on say 100C, the cooker will heat up to the temperature set and maintain that temperature
whilst the clock calls for it. To cooker just turn up to you desired temperature say 180C and the
burner will fire and take the oven up to that temperature. When you have finished cooker turn the
oven back to previous setting say 100C.
The cooler the outside temperature the more heat will be required in the kitchen, So in late spring
early Autumn you might want to set the oven to just 50C, in early spring and late Autumn 100C and
during those cold months Dec. Jan & Feb 150C. You can adjust the temperature on a daily basis.
In the summer, most people leave the cooker at 0C and use the induction hob and onlt turn the
oven on when required.
Using your hotplates
Your appliance has two hotplates, with a joint hotplate in the middle, protected with two insulated
lids which should remain in a closed position when not using the hotplate. The lids can be raised
independently if only using one hot plate. The hot plate temperature can be increased by turning up
the oven temperature. The higher the temperature in the ovens, the hotter the hotplate will
become.
The design of the hot plates is such that the left hand side will become the hottest, making this
suitable for deep fat frying, shallow frying and boiling.
The surfaces of the hotplates are ground flat and it is therefore recommended that all utensils used
have a solid, flat base to come in complete contact with the hot plate for efficient results.
Using your Ovens
Your appliance has 3 ovens. The thermometer dial in the top oven door provides an indication to
the top oven temperatures. This thermometer reading will reduce quite dramatically when the door
is opened and only recover slowly when the door is closed. This occurrence does not mean that the
oven temperature has reduced. The bottom ovens are warmed by the underside of the oven above.
Depending on the control device setting and operational time, this oven will generally operate some
85 – 90°C below the top ovens. It may be used for small food cooking, biscuits, cakes etc but it is
best used as a warming compartment.
Chimney sweeping & maintenance
Your chimney should be swept at least once a year by a registered sweep, with a soft 5” round
headed brush. The sweep should also:
1/
lift the oven clear out plates and vacuum those chamber out.
2/
Undo the screws holding the hot plate down and remove the hob with the handles provided.
Vacuum out the top chamber and chimney debris space. The hob screws should be coated with
‘cooper slip’ before replacing.
3/
replace the fire cement at the base of the flue if necessary.
