Lighting the cooker LYRIC 55G2 Lighting the cooker The ignition system works by means of a battery. Details on how to replace the battery are given on page 26. Grill and hotplate To light: 1 Push in the control knob and turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread.
To turn off any burner 1 Push in the control knob and turn it to the off position. This is shown by a large dot. For your safety When you are lighting any burner check that it has lit before you leave the cooker. When you are turning off a burner, do not leave the cooker until the flame has gone out.
lil LYRIC 55G2 T h e g r 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. Heat control The grill control gives two heat settings. The control knob turns to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'.
lli LYRIC 55G2 g r e Preheating h 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 when browning food. Positioning food on the grid Place food such as toast, teacakes and muffins towards the centre of the grid. Place food which needs a more gentle heat such as tomatoes and mushrooms towards the edge of the grid. Arrange meat, meat products and fish to suit their thickness and how you like them cooked.
LYRIC 55G2 al et The hotplate e Heat control T h h o tp 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. These are shown as a large and a small flame symbol. Burner sizes The hotplate has three burner sizes to suit different types of cooking: Largest burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such as chips. Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday cooking.
et LYRIC 55G2 pt la h o For your safety T h e 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. Do not leave a pan unattended.
et LYRIC 55G2 al tp o h e Helpful hints h T 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.
LYRIC 55G2 v e n o The oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make use of these heat zones when you are cooking foods requiring different temperatures all at the same time.
n LYRIC 55G2 o v e Baking trays and dishes h e T For your safety Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burner. This will damage the cooker as well as the ovenware and possibly the floor covering underneath the cooker. Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly. Do not push dishes too far back as food will burn if it overhangs the burner flames.

Oven cooking chart Note: You must soak dried beans then boil them in an open pan for 15 minutes before you add them to any dish.
LYRIC 55G2 k ni g Slow cooking S ol w oc o The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn the oven down to the slow cook setting. This makes sure that the temperature of the food gets hot enough to start the food cooking.
LYRIC 55G2 k ni g Soups, casseroles and stews l l l Do not cook casseroles over 3 kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Vegetables l l l l Cut into small pieces. Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish. Place vegetables under meat in casseroles. Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook setting.
LYRIC 55G2 ni g Reheating w Cool left over food quickly and then put it in the fridge. Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food in the usual way or in a microwave. Only reheat food once.
g LYRIC 55G2 a n ni el Care and cleaning c d n a er For your safety For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas 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 appliance will be hot. Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet.
LYRIC 55G2 a You can wash the removable parts in very hot soapy water. You may use mild abrasives. Make sure that the electrode and the hole and slots in the crown are not blocked with food or cleaning materials. 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.
LYRIC 55G2 n in g a The oven el The top, sides and back of your oven are coated in a special material which helps to keep itself clean. Follow these simple rules to maintain the appearance of the special finish. Helpful hints 1 Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over. 2 Do not put dishes too high in the oven. If you do they may stick to the oven roof. 3 Cover your roasting tins with foil. This will prevent fat splashing.
LYRIC 55G2 n in g Oven cleaning cycle d You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to follow the cycle. If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should follow the cleaning cycle once a week. If you do very little roasting you will only need to follow the cleaning cycle every 2-3 weeks. C a er a n c el a To carry out a cleaning cycle: 1. Remove the oven shelves. 2.
g LYRIC 55G2 Cleaning the glass door a n ni You can remove the glass from the oven door if you need to. d c le a n er To remove the outer glass 1 Open the oven door so you can get at the two cross head screws on the top of the oven door. 2 Loosen these two screws using a pozidrive screwdriver. 3 You should hold the door glass securely in place with one hand, whilst removing the screws completely, with the other hand. If you do not do this, the door glass could fall forward.
n LYRIC 55G2 lal iot Cleaning The Door Glass nI s at To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following: Household detergents and bleaches Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads Chemical oven pads or aerosols Rust removers Bath/Sink stain removers If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep scratches the glass will be weakened and must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel shattering.
