FAQs
What type of fuel does this cooker use?
The Rangemaster Elise 90cm is a dual fuel range cooker, meaning it uses gas for the hob and electricity for the oven.
Can this cooker be converted to use LPG?
Yes, this model can typically be converted to use LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas), but this must be performed by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer using a specific LPG conversion kit. Info needed: [Is the LPG conversion kit included or sold separately?]
How do I clean the gas hob burners?
For best performance, regularly remove the burner caps and pan supports. Wash them in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and ensure they are completely dry before reassembling. Wipe the hob surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
What are the ventilation requirements for this cooker?
As a gas appliance, adequate ventilation is crucial. Always ensure proper kitchen ventilation, such as an extractor fan or open window, when using the gas hob. Refer to the installation manual for specific clearance requirements and ventilation recommendations.
What is the internal capacity of the oven?
Info needed: [The exact litre capacity of the oven is not provided in the product description. Please refer to the full product specifications or manual for this detail.]
Is professional installation required for this dual fuel cooker?
Yes, professional installation is strongly recommended and often required by law for dual fuel appliances. A qualified Gas Safe registered engineer must connect the gas supply, and a certified electrician should handle the electrical connection to ensure safety and compliance.
How do I ensure the cooker is energy efficient?
The cooker has an 'A' energy efficiency rating. To maximize efficiency, always preheat the oven only for the required time, avoid opening the oven door unnecessarily, and use appropriate cookware for your dishes.
Troubleshooting
Gas burner not igniting
Check that the gas supply is turned on. Ensure the burner cap and crown are correctly seated and clean. Hold the control knob down firmly for a few seconds after ignition to allow the flame safety device to activate. If problems persist, check for blockages in the burner jets or consult a qualified gas engineer.
Oven not heating up
Verify that the cooker is properly plugged into the electrical outlet and the fuse hasn't tripped. Check the oven function selector and temperature dial settings. Some ovens have a timer that must be set to 'manual' or a cooking duration. If the issue continues, it may indicate a fault with the heating element or thermostat, requiring professional service.
Uneven cooking in the oven
Ensure the oven is preheated fully before placing food inside. Avoid overloading the oven, which can restrict air circulation. Try rotating dishes halfway through cooking. Check if the oven is perfectly level, as an uneven appliance can cause temperature variations. If issues persist, the thermostat or fan (if applicable) may need calibration by a technician.
Oven light not working
First, ensure the cooker is powered. The oven bulb may have blown and needs replacing. Refer to your user manual for instructions on how to safely replace the bulb, ensuring the correct type and wattage is used. If a new bulb doesn't resolve the issue, there may be an electrical fault requiring professional inspection.
Excessive condensation in the oven
This can occur with certain foods or if the oven door is opened frequently. Try to minimize opening the door during cooking. Ensure food is not covered excessively unless required by the recipe. If using a fan oven, ensure the fan is operating correctly. Ensure the kitchen is adequately ventilated during and after cooking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Unpacking: Carefully unpack the cooker, removing all packaging materials and internal accessories. Keep packaging for potential returns or transport.
Positioning: Place the cooker in its intended alcove. Ensure adequate ventilation is available, especially for the gas hob.
Connections: Due to the dual fuel nature, professional installation is strongly recommended. A qualified Gas Safe registered engineer must connect the gas supply, and a certified electrician should handle the electrical connection. Ensure both connections meet local regulations and safety standards.
Leveling: Use the adjustable feet to level the cooker, ensuring stability and even cooking.
First Use: Before initial cooking, it is advisable to 'burn off' the oven by heating it to its maximum temperature for approximately 30-60 minutes with the kitchen well-ventilated. This helps to remove any manufacturing residues.
Compatibility
Gas Supply: Requires a natural gas supply, or can be converted to LPG (liquid petroleum gas) by a qualified engineer using a specific conversion kit (Info needed: [Is LPG conversion kit included/available?]).
Electrical Supply: Needs a dedicated electrical circuit with appropriate voltage and amperage as specified in the product manual.
Space Requirements: The cooker measures 935mm (H) x 900mm (W) x 650mm (D) (excluding handles and knobs). Ensure sufficient clearance around the appliance for safe operation and ventilation, as detailed in the installation manual.
Care
Daily Cleaning: Wipe down the gas hob and control panel with a damp cloth and mild detergent after each use to prevent food residue from hardening.
Hob Cleaning: For stubborn stains on the gas hob, use a non-abrasive cleaner suitable for enamel and stainless steel surfaces. The pan supports can often be removed and washed separately.
Oven Cleaning: Regularly wipe the interior of the oven with warm soapy water once it has cooled. For baked-on food, use a specialist oven cleaner, following the product instructions carefully. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.
Burner Maintenance: Keep gas burner caps and rings clean to ensure efficient flame distribution. Periodically remove and wash them. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them back on the hob.
Inspection: Periodically check gas connections and electrical cords for any signs of wear or damage. If any issues are detected, contact a qualified professional for inspection and repair.
Ventilation: Ensure proper ventilation is maintained around the cooker, especially when using the gas hob, to dissipate cooking fumes and heat effectively.
