FULL WIDTH DUAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. CHILDREN 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 FULL WIDTH DUAL GRILL 12.00 · To operate the grill, pop out and turn the second oven/grill selector for full grill.
1. THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLES The grill pan is supplied with removable handles. 1. To attach the handles, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Ensure the handles are positively located. 2. To remove the handles, lift away from the cut out on the grill pan. 2. Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill. Protect your hands when removing the grill pan handles.
· 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.
SECOND OVEN The second 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. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche. The second oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the second oven when you want to warm plates. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control. USING SECOND OVEN 12.
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.

VENTITHERM ® FAN OPERATED COOKING 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.
CONVENTIONAL COOKING This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation. It is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. For best results cook on one level. USING CONVENTIONAL COOKING 12.00 · Pop out and turn the main oven multifunction selector to Conventional Cooking.
HINTS AND TIPS · Single level cooking gives best results. If you require more than one level of cooking use the fan oven function. · The middle shelf allows for the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position. · 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.

· · · · · · · · HINTS AND TIPS Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift the food out of the fats and juices. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different thicknesses of food. Position the food close to the element for faster cooking and further away for more gentle cooking. Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to minimise splashing.
PIZZA This setting can be used for foods such as pizza where base browning and crispness are required. The lower elements operate in conjunction with the oven fan. USING PIZZA 12.00 · Pop out and turn the main oven multifunction selector to Pizza. · Pop out and turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting. THINGS TO NOTE · · The oven light will illuminate. · The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a time. The indicator neon will glow.
SPEEDCOOK Speedcook is ideal for quick preheating of the oven before selecting and alternative cooking function. It can also be used for cooking chilled and frozen convenience foods without the need for preheating. COOKING TIMES Cooking times for convenience foods should be the same or slightly quicker than those stated on the packaging. This may vary depending on the dish and the quantity of food being cooked. USING SPEEDCOOK 12.
ROTITHERM ROASTING Rotitherm Roasting offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional grilling. Rotitherm Roasting helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill in the main oven with the oven door closed. With the exception of toast and rare steaks you can Rotitherm Roast all the foods you would normally cook under a conventional grill. The lower part of the oven can be used to cook accompaniments at the same time, e.g.
HINTS AND TIPS · Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or butter to keep them moist during cooking. · Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air around the food. · Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed below the grid when grilling meats, or in a separate dish on a lower shelf.
FAN CONTROLLED DEFROSTING 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 FAN CONTROLLED DEFROSTING 12.00 · Pop out and turn the main oven multifunction selector to Fan Controlled Defrosting.
