THE GRILL USES OF THE GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. Use the full heat grill only for foods which require high heat and short cooking times, e.g. toast, blue/rare steaks. Use thermal grilling to grill all other foods, e.g. bacon, chops, sausages, chicken joints, etc. See chart on page 22 for recommended cooking times, temperatures and shelf positions. SELECTING THE GRILL 1) Turn the selector to full heat grill.
THINGS TO NOTE THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING GRILLING l l The cooling fan for the controls will operate when grilling. To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking or the carrier shelf can be lifted away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant work surface. The oven/grill indicator neon will illuminate. THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
l l l Cook toast and rare steaks using the preheated full heat grill. All other foods cook very successfully on thermal grill. When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner position is used with the grid in its 'High' position. The food should be turned over during cooking as required.
THE FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN The oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven, the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of fanned 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 find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.
l THINGS TO NOTE l l The oven neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will cycle ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained. When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time. The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.
OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements.

THERMAL GRILLING USES OF THERMAL GRILLING Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven fan operate together, circulating hot air around the food. The need to check and turn food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven door closed. The lower part of the oven can be used to cook accompaniments at the same time, e.g.
HINTS AND TIPS l 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. l l Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka, lasagne, etc., are piping hot throughout before serving. A temperature range of 140-220°C and shelf positions 3 and 4 are suitable for most foods. Be prepared to make suitable adjustments during cooking to suit individual requirements.
DEFROSTING USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This function enables you to defrost most foods 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. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours.
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD Care must 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 preparing, reheating, cooking, cooling, defrosting and freezing foods. 1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good quality and in prime condition. Shop at a reliable source and buy the 'freshest' looking package avoid shop worn labels or produce covered in dust. 2.
CARE AND CLEANING BEFORE CLEANING THE COOKER ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer. Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives should also be avoided.
5. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot soapy water or Flash Cream cleaner. DO NOT try to clean the aluminium foil which is inside the door. The foil is there to help keep the door cool, if it is damaged it will not work. Ensure that all parts are well rinsed and thoroughly dry before attempting to replace the outer door glass. HINTS AND TIPS l l TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS 1.
SOMETHING NOT WORKING We strongly recommend that you carry out the following checks on your cooker before calling a Service Engineer. It may be that the problem is a simple one which you can solve yourself without the expense of a service call. If our Service Engineer finds that the problem is listed below you will be charged for the call whether or not the cooker is under guarantee. The oven temperature is too high or low: * Check that the recommended temperatures are being used (see page 25).
