Hotpoint GW74 Cooktop User Manual


 
The main oven is fitted with a safety device that re-lights the burner if the
flame has been extinguished for any reason and another safety device that
reduces the gas flow to a safe level if, for any reason, the burner fails to light.
The oven has different heat zones – the thermostat settings refer to the
temperature on the middle shelf position; above this shelf it is hotter and below
it is cooler. Two shelves provide six possible cooking levels enabling full use of
the different temperatures inside the oven.
Each shelf has a safety stop to prevent if from being pulled out too far when
attending to food. Shelves are removed from the oven by pulling them out to
the stop and then lifting them at the front to withdraw.
The maximum size of baking tray that should be used is 325mm x 350mm (13” x 14”).
