When you are turning off a burner, do not leave the cooker until the flame has gone out. Main fan oven The main oven is an electric fan oven. To use the oven 1 Turn the oven control knob to the required setting.
The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food. For your safety You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit. Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young children should be kept away.
The grill ZCM 5600 General Plate warming You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are using the oven. Preheating You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or browning food. Positioning food on the grid Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and muffins towards the centre of the grid. If you put food outside this area it may require rotating during cooking.
The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan. Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to remove the grill pan handle during grilling. Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill.
The hotplate ZCM 5600 The hotplate You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 31for more information. Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. You can adjust the heat by turning the control between the highest and lowest settings.
For your safety 1 Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. 2 Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. 3 Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip. 4 Put pans on the centre of the burners. 5 Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally knocked. 6 Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do not cover the pan with a lid. FRONT-LEFT Do not leave a pan unattended.
The hotplate ZCM 5600 Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. 2 Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. 3 Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen. 4 Try cooking more than one vegetable in the same pan, for example potatoes and carrots. 5 Cut vegetables into smaller pieces. This way they will cook more quickly.
The fan oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. The fan circulates hot air in the oven to give an even temperature throughout the oven. You can make use of the even temperature when you want to cook a large quantity of similar foods at the same time. For example, if you are cooking more than one tray of cakes or biscuits there is no need to swap the trays around during cooking. Preheating You do not need to preheat the oven when casseroling and so on.
The ovens ZCM 5600 Batch baking The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels. This is especially useful when you want to batch bake on three shelves. Make sure the shelves are evenly spaced to get the best results. Oven shelves You can slot the oven shelves in any of five positions. When you are using more than one shelf, make sure the shelves are evenly spaced. For safety the shelf will only pull out so far.
The gas top oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. You can only cook on one shelf at a time. You should turn food round during the cooking time. Preheating You do not need to preheat the top oven for casseroling and so on. Preheat the oven for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food such as Yorkshire puddings, soufflés and yeast mixtures. When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the instructions on the packaging.
The ovens ZCM 5600 Helpful hints 1. Arrange the oven shelves in the required positions before switching the oven on. 2. Place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf. 3. When baking larger quantities of food, the shelf positions should be evenly spaced. A slight increase in cooking time may be necessary. 4. Do not place dishes or baking trays on the oven base as this may restrict the circulation of heat.
Oven Cooking Chart - Main fan oven The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to sui t individual preferences and requirements. Shelf positions are not critical but ensure that oven shelves are evenly spaced when more than one is used.

Defrost feature ZCM 5600 Defrost feature Uses of defrost feature This fan oven function defrosts most foods faster than more conventional methods. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc. It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly in the fridge. However this process can be accelerated by using the defrost function.
Things to note When defrost is selected, the oven indicator neon may come ON. It will stay ON until the oven reaches room temperature and then go OFF. It may cycle ON and OFF periodically during defrosting to maintain a steady room temperature, inside the oven. Care must always be taken when handling foods in the home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross contamination when defrosting, preparing, cooking, cooling and freezing foods.

Care and cleaning ZCM 5600 Care and cleaning For your safety For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this cooker clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuff could cause a fire. Try to mop up spills and splashes as soon as they happen. But be careful as parts of the cooker will be hot. Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet.
Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time. Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the pan supports. Clean the pan supports regularly to remove the marks using a mild abrasive like 'Jif' with a soft scourer.
