THE DUAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes, the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food. USING THE DUAL GRILL • • • • To operate the grill turn the top oven/grill function selector to full grill. Turn the top oven/grill function selector to centre section only.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE The grill pan has a removable handle. To insert the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot slightly upwards inserting the lip into the widest part of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left, lower into position and release the button. Ensure the handle is properly located. To remove the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards and towards the right to remove from the bracket.
• • Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes to seal meat or for toasting. Adjust the heat setting and the shelf position as necessary during cooking. The food should be turned over during cooking as required.
TOP OVEN The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food on one shelf. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche. The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the lowest setting on the second oven temperature control. USING THE TOP OVEN • • Turn the top oven/grill function selector to.
HINTS AND TIPS • • • • • • • • Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards. There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”) between the top of the food and the element. This gives best cooking results and allows room for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc. When cooking cakes, pastry, scones bread etc., place the tins or baking trays centrally on the shelf.
THE MAIN OVEN The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food. The advantages of fan oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first.
USING THE TELESCOPIC RUNNERS (where fitted) 1. Ensure the telescopic runners are pushed back into the oven cavity before fitting the shelf. FORM 2. Holding the front edge of the shelf with both hands, place the rear shelf forms over the telescopic runners. RETAINING HOOK 3. Slide the shelf into position, lifting slightly at the front so that the shelf locates into the retaining hooks. To remove, raise the front edge and withdraw the shelf. Ensure the shelf is positively located before using.

DEFROST FEATURE This main oven function enables you to defrost most foods without heat faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. 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. USING DEFROST FEATURE • Turn the main oven function selector to the defrost setting. THINGS TO NOTE • • The oven fan and oven light will come on.
