Honeywell Central Heating Cooker Natural Gas Cooktop User Manual

The Redfyre cooker has two large ovens. The main oven
works similar to a conventional oven which is controlled by
its own programmer and thermostat, this thermostat also
controls the rest of the appliance. This oven will reach a
roasting oven temperature in approximately 20 - 25 minutes
from cold and less if it has already been in use during the day.
1.1 The main oven is very spacious and will easily accommodate
the largest of roasting joints ie a 12kg (28lb) turkey. It is
constructed from 5mm mild steel plate and all joints are
welded to seal in natural juices and flavour when roasting as
well as minimising shrinkage. Any kind of food spillage in the
main oven will be automatically burnt off at high
temperature, all you have to do is brush it out with a wire
brush.
1.2 The highly insulated door and high quality door seal closes
with a spring loaded action to ensure that there is minimal
heat loss with oven door closed.
1.3 There are four oven shelf positions within the oven which are
designed to take the oven grid shelves and roasting tins to give
the maximum area coverage. The top oven shelf position is
ideal for grilling and roasting.
1.4 A farmhouse breakfast can be produced by lightly greasing
the base of the roasting tin. Carefully crack some eggs and
place in one half of the tin, in the other half place slices of
bread. Using a grill rack over the eggs and bread lay bacon
and sausage, the fat will drip out during cooking onto the
eggs and bread to help flavour them. You can also add
tomatoes and mushrooms to the tin if you like. Cooking this
way helps keep the top of your cooker cleaner and make less
mess. Similarly fillets and fish give excellent results when
grilled using this method.
1.5 The thickness and the construction of the oven walls enable
heat to be transferred all around the oven so excellent results
can be achieved by cooking on the base of the oven for
pastry dishes and quiches. Alternatively it can be used for
shallow frying,again containing splashes to the inside of your
oven which will burn off at high temperatures as previously.
explained.
2.1 The lower oven is the same size as the main oven and
operates at a temperature of approximately 100° C lower
than the main oven, therefore if the main oven is operating
at a temperature of above 200° C the lower oven can only be
used as a warming oven.
2.2 This oven is ideal for long slow cooking and is ideal for
putting the roast to rest before carving, slow cooking
vegetables, meringues and milk puddings. As its size is
identical to the main oven there is plenty of room for
warming serving dishes or pre-warming cooking utensils
before use. When making bread, dough can be placed in
the oven to make it rise free from draughts. Spillages can be
wiped and surfaces wire brushed similar to the main oven to
keep them clean.
3.1 The hotplate is large enough to take up to seven various
sized saucepans, surely big enough for the largest meal. The
hotplate is graduated in temperature with the left side being
the hotter. With the hotplate being one piece pans can slide
from one side to another without the risk of damaging the
enamel surround. The insulated lids and decorative centre
cover conserves heat when not in use. However, one must
be careful when removing the decorative centre cover and a
oven glove must be used. When the cooker has been in use
the cover will be hot and may damage sensitive surfaces if
placed on them. Obviously the higher the oven temperature
setting the hotter the hotplates will become, it may only take
10 - 15 minutes from cold for the hotplate to be used. The
black enamel surround of the hotplate becomes warm when
in use and is ideal for keeping a coffee pot warm,
dissolving gelatine and melting butter.
4.1 The control panel is located behind the top left hand door
and is self explanatory, it consists of :
4.2 One cooker programmer and two thermostat switches - one for
central heating and one for cooking.
4.3 The cooker thermostat has a neon indicator which goes off
when the main oven has reached its desired temperature.
The boiler thermostat has a neon indicator which goes off
when the boiler has reached its desired temperature.
4.4 There are two safety manual overheat thermostats, each have
a neon indicator, which when lit will require resetting. If the
overheat thermostat requires continual resetting you must
contact your distributor to check the appliance is operating
correctly, it may require a service.
4.5 There are two reset burner buttons behind the lower left hand
door, one for the boiler and one for the cooker. These will
illuminate if the burner has gone to lock out, simply press the
button to try and refire the burner (make sure that the correct
thermostat is calling for heat). If the burner continues to go to
lock out, then you need to call your service company or
installer.
4.6 There is one additional safety device reset button behind the
lower left hand door. The light will illuminate if there is a
problem with the flue system. It can be reset by pressing the
reset button. If this illuminates more than twice call a service
engineer to check the flue for blockages.
