Safety advice

This appliance is not intended for use 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 concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for

their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• When using Gas, ensure that the room is well ventilated.

• Always keep children and infirm persons away from the product when it is in use.

• Only use the stove for preparing food.

• Never use the hob burners with the glass lid in the down position.

• Do not close the glass lid until the hob has cooled down.

• Wear oven gloves to open the oven door and also to handle food in the oven.

• Use a deep pan, large enough to cover the appropriate burner

• Always dry food thoroughly before placing it in hot oil or fat. Frozen food in particular will spit

and splatter if added too quickly.

• Never fill the pan more than one third full of fat or oil.

• Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.

• Do not fry too much food at once. This lowers the temperature of the oil or fat and results in fatty

foods.

• Do not leave hot fat or oil unattended. If overheating occurs, these could catch fire.

• Do not use or store inflammable products (alcohol, petrol, benzene etc.) near the stove as these

pose a fire risk.

• Do not hang a dishtowel on the open glass lid as it may slide off and catch fire.

• Do not close the tempered glass lid while the burners are on, while the hob is still hot or

when the oven is being used. Allow the product to cool down before lowering the glass lid.

• Do not place heavy object on the glass lid.

• A stove without a flame failure device may only be used with a free standing cylinder

placed adjacent to but not closer than 300 mm to the stove.

In the event of a pan fire

• Switch off the Gas supply.

• Smother the flames with a blanket or damp cloth.

• Burns and injuries are usually caused by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.

• Do NOT use water to extinguish an oil or fat fire.

If you smell gas:

• Turn off the gas supply at the bottle.

• Extinguish all naked flames.

• Do not operate any electrical appliances.

• Ventilate the area.

• Check for leaks as detailed on page 6 of this manual.

• If odour persists contact your nearest Defy Service Centre for assistance.

PAGE 4 OF16

Installation

Good ventilation is essential for the safe operation of the stove. Do not install the stove in a room

below ground level unless it is open to ground level on at least one side. Prolonged extensive use

of the stove may call for additional ventilation, for example an open window or dedicated

extraction fan that exhausts to the outside.

Do not stand the stove on a carpet..

To fit the levelling feet, proceed as follows:

• Remove any loose burner components and oven shelves.

• Secure the glass lid and oven door to prevent accidental opening.

• With the help of an assistant, incline the stove forwards ( fig 1)

• Screw the rear levelling feet in place (fig 2)

• Thereafter incline the stove to the rear ( fig 3)

• Screw in the front levelling feet ( fig 4)

• Fit the front left and front right leg covers as shown and attach them using a Philips screw

driver and screws. ( fig 5 and fig 6 )

• Avoid dragging the stove on an irregular floor as this could damage the feet.

• Position the stove and adjust the levelling feet as required to ensure a stable and level stance.

PAGE 7 OF16

Lighting the burners on the hob

1. Lift the tempered glass lid.

2. Press the relevant burner knob, turning it to the left and to the high flame position, Light a

match (or use an electronic spark igniter) and hold it close to the burner outlets.

3. Once lit, adjust the burner flame to suit.

4. If the flame fails to continue burning, please repeat the sequence.

5. The large flame symbol on the knob indicates the maximum and the small flame the lowest

setting.

Action to be taken in the event of a burn back

1. In the event of a burn back (where the flame burns back into the jet) immediately turn off the

control valve to the affected burner.

2. After ensuring the flame is extinguished, wait for 1 minute and relight the burner in the

normal manner.

3. If the burn back occurs again, turn off the control valve to the affected burner, and consult

the nearest Defy Service Centre for assistance .

4. Do not use the appliance again until a service technician has declared it safe to do so.

Maintenance

• Removable burner parts should be washed weekly with hot water and detergent.

• Take care to remove any encrustations and ensure that the burner holes are clear.

• The condition of the gas hose and valve should be inspected for leaks every time the gas bottle

is re-filled.

‘Classic pin’ (C).

• Fit the T-bar to the socket and remove the pot stands, burner

caps and burner bodies.

1. Insert the socket into the central tube of the burner so that it

locates over the brass gas jet at the bottom of the tube.

2. Gently loosen the brass gas jet by turning the socket in a anti-

clockwise direction.

3. Carefully lift the socket and loosened brass gas jet from the

central burner tube.

4. Insert the Classic pin into central hole of the jet and slide it up and

down until the jet is free of accumulated dirt.

5. Re-assemble in reverse order.

6. Clean all the burner jets in the manner described above.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Switch off the gas supply before cleaning any part of the stove.

1. Allow the stove to cool down before cleaning

2. Never use steel wool or similar, sharp objects, vinegar or lemon to clean any part of the

stove.

3. Never use cleaning products containing abrasive materials as these could damage the

decorative and informative paint applications.

4. Never remove the oven gasket for cleaning purposes as the product could be damaged.

5. Never use high-pressure steam equipment or a water jet to clean the stove.

6. Remove the burners and wipe them with a thin damp cloth or a non-abrasive sponge. Use a

neutral detergent. Dry afterward with a soft cloth and blow away any residual water in the

gas outlet holes.

7. For cleaning the painted and enameled parts, wipe with a thin damp cloth or non-abrasive

sponge and some neutral detergent.

8. Dry afterwards paying particular attention to the areas at floor level

The stainless steel hob

Stainless steel is not adversely affected by normal household use but because of it’s reputation

for durability, it is sometimes assumed to be indestructible, and therefore subjected to misuse or

even abuse. Care should be taken to avoid such ‘abnormal’ use.

Do Use

• A soft cloth or synthetic sponge.

• Soap, or mild household detergent.

• Diluted ammonia in warm water.

• A nylon bristle brush.

• Cleaners labelled “Suitable for stainless

steel”.

• Frequent cleaning is recommended rather than an occasional aggressive clean.

• Routine cleaning will preserve the corrosion resistance and appearance of the stainless steel for

many years.

• Clean the stainless steel as often as necessary ( ie. when noticeably dull or dirty ) and use the

simplest cleaning method that will effectively do the job.

• Use clean water, or a mild detergent solution applied with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse well

and wipe dry.

Burners

• Removable burner parts should be washed weekly with hot water and detergent.

• Take care to remove any encrustations and ensure that the burner holes are clear.

• The condition of the gas hose and valve should be inspected for leaks every time the gas bottle

is re-filled.

Do Not Use

• Acids.

• A steam cleaner.

• Abrasive scourers, steel wool, metal

scrapers, wire brushes, emery paper or

foam scouring pads.

• So called ‘silver cleaners’.

PAGE 10 OF16

Condition Action Notes and comments

Requires routine cleaning Mild detergent solution applied

with soft sponge or cloth. Rinse

and wipe dry.

If possible use warm to hand-

hot water. A 5% addition of

ammonia is beneficial.

Finger prints Pre-treat finger marks with

alcohol or an organic solvent.

Follow immediately with

routine cleaning.

Minimize re-occurrence by

applying a wax or silicone

based household polish to the

clean dry surface.

Wipe with a little baby oil and

a soft lint free cloth.

Buff to shine.

Apply whenever necessary.

Stubborn stains and

discolouration

Use a little Ceran cleaning

paste. (available from Defy

Service Centres)

Rinse and dry.

Repeat several times rather

than resorting to a single

aggressive cleaning method.

Grease and fat splatter. Wipe off excess with a soft

cloth or paper towel. Use a

water borne degreasing agent

( dishwashing liquid ).Follow

up by routine cleaning.

Scratches on the brushed

finish.

For slight scratches, use a

nylon pad loaded with an iron

free abrasive polishing

compound. Follow the

direction of the original

texture. Follow up with routine

cleaning.

For deep scratches use a

coarser abrasive initially and

follow up as for light scratches.

Deep scratches will be difficult

to remove completely. Do not

use steel wool or metal

scourers unless they are made

from stainless steel.

It must be appreciated that some of the above suggested procedures will

alter the surface appearance of the treated area.

They should therefore only be applied with due consideration and care.
