GRILL PAN FOOD GRID GRILL PAN FOOD GRID TOP OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR GRILLING ENSURE SHELVES ARE FITTED CORRECT WAY UP. 3 2 1 3 2 1 DO NOT PLACE FOOD/UTENSILS DIRECTLY ON THE OVEN FLOOR NOTE: Ensure oven timer is set to Manual. 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 OPERATION WHEN USING THE TOP OVEN FOR GRILLING GRILL SETTING CONTROL A C B A B TOP OVEN TEMPERATURE AND GRILL SELECTION CONTROL TIMER Step 1 Ensure oven timer is set to manual.

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. 20 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 nonheating 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. Turn the Main Oven Temperature and Function Control (C) clockwise to the setting. Fan Only This defrosts by circulating the air around the food, time to defrost will depend on type and size of the food. NOTES: DO NOT defrost meat and poultry by warming the food through. Foods ideally suited to defrosting using the fan only setting are cream/cream cakes, butter cream filled cakes, gateaux, cheese cakes, iced cakes, quiches, pastries, biscuits, bread, croissants, fruit and many delicate frozen foods.
