When an automatic programme has been set on one oven, IT IS NOT possible to use the oven manually. * 13 THE RADIANT HOB USING THE HOB Please Note: SB431 Green Timer will differ from the one shown in the diagram. · · · To operate the hotplates turn the control knobs in either direction to vary the heat setting. The highest number represents the hottest setting and the lowest number represents the coolest setting. Choose a setting appropriate to the quantity and type of food to be cooked. To operate the dual hotplate, turn the control knobs clockwise for full area or anti-clockwise for the centre section. · Avoid placing fish kettles or large preserving pans across two hotplates as this may cause damage. RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS For speed and economy only good quality saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are recommended. The saucepan base should cover the hotplate as much as possible. A base diameter of up to 225mm (9") may be used on a 180mm (7") hotplate. · · Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer, particularly those relating to recommended heat settings. Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not be used. Pressure cookers, preserving pans, etc. , should comply with the recommendations given above. Traditional round bottomed Woks must not be used even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases are available and do comply with the above recommendations. · To prolong the life of the hotplates: · · · · Never use utensils with a skirt, e. g. Never leave the hotplates ON when not covered with a saucepan. HINTS AND TIPS · Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the hob to help reduce scratches and maintain the efficiency of the hotplates. · For full details on deep fat frying and preserving refer to instructions on page 15. 14 DEEP FAT FRYING SPECIAL FRYING NOTE: For safety purposes when deep fat frying, fill the pan one third full of oil, DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended. In the unfortunate event of a fire, switch the appliance OFF at the electricity supply and cover the pan with a lid or damp cloth to assist in smothering the flames. Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes before moving it. DO NOT leave the fat or oil in the frying pan on the hob to store it in case the hob is inadvertently switched ON. Seal the food by coating with flour, egg and breadcrumbs or batter. Do not use a basket with batter coated foods as they will stick. For safety purposes fill the pan only one-third full of oil. It is advisable to use a thermometer to test the temperature of the oil. Alternatively, drop a small cube of bread into the oil which should brown in just under a minute if the oil is at the correct temperature of 190°C/375°F. Do Not add too much food at once or the temperature of the oil will be reduced and may result in soggy, greasy food. Turn the food if necessary; doughnuts float to the surface so will not brown on the upperside if not turned.
