Abstract

A single cavity gas oven and grill unit provided with an oven burner (14) and an independent grill burner (15). A flue (12) has a flap (16) pivotable between a closed position for the oven mode and an open position for the griling mode. The flap (16) is connected by a first linkage to a selector (13) and by a second linkage to a dual gas tap. For the oven mode the selector (13) closes the flap which in turn prevents the gas tap operating the grill. When the grill is on, the gas tap holds the flap open which in turn holds the selector in a position to prevent the oven door being closed.
