Lighting the appliance LYRIC 55 GX3 Lighting the appliance The system works by means of an electric spark system. Details about the plug are given on page 30. Hotplate and Grill 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.
Top oven To light: 1 Open the oven door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to the left to gas mark 8, and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. There will only be small flames at first. 3 Now turn the control knob to the gas mark you want. 4 Wait until the burner is showing large flames. 5 Close the oven door. Main oven To light: 1 Open the oven door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 9, and press the ignition button immediately.
Lighting the cooker LYRIC 55 GX3 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 appliance. When you are turning off a burner, do not leave the appliance until the flame has gone out.
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. Prior to using the grill We suggest that you operate the grill for approximately 5 - 10 mins to burn off any residue from the surface.
The grill LYRIC 55 GX3 Cooking positions Most food should be cooked on the grid in the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to suit different thicknesses of food. You can place some dishes straight on to the grill shelf. This is useful when you are browning the top of food such as cauliflower cheese. 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.
The hotplate Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn anticlockwise 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.
The hotplate LYRIC 55 GX3 For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip. Put pans on the centre of the burners. Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally knocked. Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do not cover the pan with a lid. Do not leave a pan unattended.
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 ovens LYRIC 55 GX3 The ovens Before you use the ovens you should wipe them out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones Main Oven - 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.
Shelf positions are counted from the top downwards. Most top oven cooking should be carried out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2. However, when cooking a small joint or a deep cake you can use the top oven shelf on the base of the top oven to allow enough air to circulate around the food. There is a stop at the back of the top oven. You should not try and push the shelf back beyond this stop.
The ovens LYRIC 55 GX3 Roasting For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to prevent splashing. It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended cooktimes. If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb).

L Y R I C 55 GX3 Note: You must soak dried beans then boil them in an open pan for 15 minutes before you add them to any dish.
Slow cooking Please note: There is no slow cook on the top oven. 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.
Slow cooking LYRIC 55 GX3 Soups, casseroles and stews l l l l Do not cook casseroles over 2.7kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Cover food with tight fitting lid or tin foil. Vegetables l Cut into small pieces. l Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish. l Place vegetables under meat in casseroles. l Cover food with tight fitting lid or tin foil.
Care and cleaning For your safety For hygiene and safety reasons you must keep this gas appliance 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.
Care and cleaning LYRIC 55 GX3 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 'Cif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn marks you can use a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. After cleaning the appliance parts, dry them thoroughly before you put them back. When replacing hotplate burner parts 1. Crown to body (Do not try to force the crown on to the body).
The top oven Clean the oven and shelf frequently using hot soapy water. Mild abrasives can be used if necessary. The main oven The 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. Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over. Do not put dishes too high in the oven. If you do they may stick to the oven roof. Cover your roasting tins with foil. This will prevent fat splashing.
Care and cleaning LYRIC 55 GX3 Oven cleaning cycle Please note: The oven cleaning cycle can only be used in the main oven. You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the main 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.
Cleaning between the outer and inner glass doors You can remove the glass from both oven doors if you need to. Note: For top oven door it is important not to open the door when the glass is removed because the door is lighter and it will spring shut. 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. Note: Open top oven door slightly to access screws. 2 Loosen these two screws using a pozidrive screwdriver .
Installation LYRIC 55 GX3 Installing the appliance For your safety This appliance must be installed and serviced by a competent person as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) regulations current editions.
