Cook Top, Range Hood and Oven
Every cook top is fitted with a range hood. Please ensure this is used when cooking. Smoke alarms activated by guests due to a failure to use the range hood incur costs for attendance of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade; these costs are payable by the guest. Certain models of oven require the clock to be set correctly. If your oven will not heat, please check the clock is set before contacting Guest Services. If the oven will not turn off, ensure the door is closed properly and that no cooking function is selected. If the oven shuts down, it may have overheated. It will reset itself, but you will need to reset the clock (depending on the model, the oven may not function again until the clock is reset).
Some cook top models have a safety switch installed on the splash back wall directly behind the cook top. These safety switches resemble a light switch and must be in the “on” position for the cook top hobs to operate. If you require the full manual please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.

A starter pack of dish washing tablets/powder is located in the cupboard under the sink in the kitchen. Additional tablets or powder can be purchased from your local supermarket.
