FAQs

What type of fuel does this cooker use?

This is a dual fuel range cooker, meaning it uses gas for the hob burners and electricity for the two fan ovens and grill.

How do the catalytic liners help with cleaning?

Catalytic liners are specially coated panels inside the oven that absorb grease and food residue when the oven is heated to high temperatures, making it significantly easier to wipe clean once cooled.

What are the exact dimensions of the cooker?

The dimensions are 930mm (H) x 1092mm (W) x 650mm (D), not including handles and knobs.

Can I use both ovens at the same time?

Yes, both are independent electric fan ovens, allowing you to cook different dishes at different temperatures simultaneously without flavor transfer.

Is professional installation required for this product?

Yes, due to the combination of gas and electrical connections, professional installation by a Gas Safe registered engineer and a certified electrician is mandatory for safety and warranty validation.

What is the energy efficiency rating of this cooker?

The Rangemaster Kitchener KCH110DFFSS/C has an energy efficiency class B rating.

How many cooking zones are on the hob?

The hob features 6 gas cooking zones, offering various sizes for different pot and pan requirements.

Troubleshooting

Gas hob burner won't ignite.

Check that the gas supply is turned on. Ensure the burner cap and crown are correctly seated and not obstructed by debris. Clean any food residue around the ignition pin with a dry brush.

Oven not heating up or heating unevenly.

Verify that the oven is properly plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Ensure the thermostat is set correctly and the oven door is fully closed. For uneven heating, avoid overcrowding the oven, allow sufficient preheating time, and ensure the fan is unobstructed.

Difficulty cleaning the oven despite catalytic liners.

Catalytic liners work best at high temperatures. Try running the oven at its maximum temperature for an hour after cooking to burn off absorbed grease. For stubborn build-up, a light wipe with a damp cloth (when cool) might be necessary, but avoid abrasive cleaners as they can damage the liners.

The grill isn't heating effectively.

Check that the grill element is fully engaged and the grill pan is positioned correctly. Ensure the grill door is slightly ajar (if recommended by the manual for grilling) to allow heat to escape and prevent overheating the controls.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Professional Installation: Due to its dual fuel nature, this cooker requires installation by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer (for gas connection) and a certified electrician (for electrical connection). Attempting self-installation can be dangerous and may void your warranty.
  2. Location: Ensure the chosen location in your kitchen has adequate space (dimensions: 930mm H x 1092mm W x 650mm D, excluding handles and knobs) and is properly ventilated.
  3. Connections: Verify that your kitchen has both a suitable gas supply line and a dedicated electrical circuit with the correct amperage to support the cooker's power requirements.

Compatibility

  • Compatible with mains gas supply. Check if an LPG conversion kit is needed for bottled gas (Info needed: Is LPG conversion kit included or available?).
  • Requires a dedicated electrical supply suitable for a high-power appliance.
  • Ensure your kitchen cabinetry and worktops can accommodate the cooker's size and weight.

Care

  • Hob Cleaning: For the gas hob, allow burners to cool completely. Remove pan supports and burner caps, and clean with warm soapy water. Wipe down the hob surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Oven Cleaning (Catalytic Liners): The catalytic liners will absorb grease during high-temperature cooking. For deeper cleaning, run the oven at its highest temperature setting for 30-60 minutes periodically. Any remaining residue can be wiped away with a damp cloth once cooled.
  • Exterior Cleaning: Wipe exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner. For stainless steel finishes, use a specialized stainless steel cleaner to maintain its luster.
  • Spill Management: Clean up spills on the hob or oven interiors as soon as they cool to prevent them from baking on and becoming harder to remove.
