TIPS & INFORMATION

Before you cook in your new oven it is important that

the protective oils used in the manufacture of the product

be removed.

• Make sure that the room is well ventilated (to allow

smoke to escape).

• Run the grill on high for 15 minutes with 10mm

of water in the bottom of the grill dish.

• Then run the oven on 180°C for 2 hours.

Checking gas pressures

The cooker MUST be installed in compliance with:

• The Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances

and Equipment – AS 5601/AG 601 – issued by

Standards Australia (Particular reference to sections
