HOW TO USE YOUR CARAVAN’S EQUIPMENT
• Ensure that there is at least a 10mm gap
between the pans and the edges of the
hob.
• Turn the pans so that the handles do not
overhang the front of the appliance.
• Ensure that the flame of the gas burner
heats the bottom of the pan, not the
sides.
• The pans and trays supplied with this
appliance are the maximum sizes. Do not
use larger pans and trays. They may

Care should be taken not to overload the oven, allow adequate spacing to ensure free
circulation of heat.
When roasting with aluminium foil ensure the foil does not impair circulation of heat or
block any oven flue outlet.
Temperature control
The temperature in the oven is controlled by a thermostatic gas tap and is variable over the
range 130°C to 240°C.
The table provides a guide to the approximate temperatures at each of the shelf positions with
respect to the gas mark setting. Good use can be made of the temperature variation between
the shelf positions, as several dishes requiring different temperatures may be cooked at the
same time. In this way maximum benefit can be obtained from the gas used to heat the oven.
Table 1: Temperature zones
restrict good circulation of heat, which
may increase cooking times.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended
when in use.
• Do not use the appliance while the
vehicle is moving.
• Turn the control knob back to the 0
position after cooking.
• Keep the appliance clean and prevent
accumulation of grease and food scraps.
Never cover slots or holes in the
appliance and never cover a shelf with
materials such as aluminium foil. That
restricts the airflow and may cause
carbon monoxide poisoning.
The food shelves and trays in the
appliance are hot during and after use.
Allow all parts to cool before touching
them, as this can cause serious injury.
Always use oven gloves when
removing the shelves and trays.
