[. . . ] Preheat the grill if indicated on grill chart. The grill pan must be placed on the correct shelf and positioned centrally under the grill element. Leave the control at 6 for toast, and for fast cooking of foods. For thicker foods requiring longer cooking, turn the switch to a lower setting after the initial sealing on both sides at 6. The thicker the food, the lower the control should be set. DO NOT line the grill pan with aluminium foil, as this increases the amount of fat spitting which can cause a fire. After use always return both controls to their OFF (0) position. 15 USING THE TOP OVEN FOR SOLARPLUS GRILLING Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional grill. Creda have developed a Solarplus high speed grill which is designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker because it takes less time to warm up from cold. Conventional grills require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed beneath them, but for normal grilling the Solarplus grill can be used directly from cold without any pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved by pre-heating the grill for about 1 minute. Note: You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh. Food or utensils should never be placed directly on the floor of the oven for cooking. DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the main oven is in use as the surfaces get extremely hot. MAIN OVEN UTENSILS Do Not Use: Meat Pans larger than ­ Baking Trays larger than ­ 375mm x 300mm (15"x12") 325mm x 250mm (13"x10") TEMPERATURE & TIME When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays should have an even gap around the oven. MAIN FAN OVEN OPERATION MAIN OVEN TEMPERATURE & FUNCTION CONTROL C TIMER Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Check that the timer is in manual. Place the shelf/shelves in the correct position (see Main Oven Temperature Charts. Place the food centrally on the shelf ensuring the oven door is fully closed. Select the required cooking temperature (80 to 230oC) by turning control (C) clockwise. The pilot light ( q ) will immediately come on, and remain on until the oven reaches the required temperature. The light will then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature. Note: When you have finished using your cooker, always return the controls to their OFF (O) position. At the end of the cooking period there may be a momentary puff of steam when the door is opened. This will disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an oven with a good door seal. 21 USING THE MAIN OVEN FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS Fan Only FAN ONLY SETTING DEFROSTING FROZEN MEAT & POULTRY Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in a refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours per lb. ) or at room temperature (allowing 2-3 hours per lb. ). Frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before cooking in the oven. However, to decrease the amount of time required to defrost food items, a non-heating fan only setting may be selected for the main oven only. OPERATION: TO ASSIST IN DEFROSTING: Place food in the oven and close the oven door.
