THE GRILL USES OF THE 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. SELECTING THE GRILL BS 631 BS 641 l l l Set the selector to dual grill. Turn the grill control clockwise for full grill or anticlockwise for the centre section only.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking. To insert the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards inserting the lip into widest part of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left, lower into position and release the button. Ensure the handle is positively located.
l l l l l l Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist during cooking. Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats. When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner position is used with the grid in its 'low' position. Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or toasting.
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 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 find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.
l THINGS TO NOTE 1. The temperature control and selector indicator windows will illuminate (BS 641). 2. The oven indicator 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.
THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN USES OF THE CONVENTIONAL OVEN This function uses the top and lower elements to give single level cooking. This 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. This form of cooking gives you the oppurtunity to cook without the fan in operation.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l l The middle shelf position allows for the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position. l l For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes out, then switch the selector to the conventional oven setting. Single level cooking gives best results. If you require more than one level cooking use the fan or zoned oven functions.
THE ZONED OVEN USES OF THE ZONED OVEN When the Zoned Oven is selected the top oven element operates in conjunction with the fan with effect that the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom. As there is a difference of up to 30°C between the top and bottom of the oven this feature is especially useful for dishes requiring different temperatures at the same time, making it ideal for cooking a complete meal on two shelves. SELECTING THE ZONED OVEN BS 631 BS 641 l l Turn the selector to Zoned Oven.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l Remember that the top of the oven is hotter than the bottom. The approximate difference in temperature between the top and the bottom is 30°C. If a higher shelf position is used than is recommended in the chart on page 34 it may be necessary to lower the cooking temperature by approximately 10°C. Be prepared to interchange dishes between the higher and lower shelf position during cooking, where necessary.
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. NOTE: Shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven.
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.
HINTS AND TIPS l 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 l Turn food over during cooking, as necessary. 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. Food such as fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly onto the trivet in the grill pan, if preferred.

DEFROST FEATURE 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.
THINGS TO NOTE 1. The selector indicator window will illuminate (BS 641). 2. The oven fan and internal oven light will come on. No heat is produced when the defrost function is selected. The heating elements stay OFF even if the temperature control is set. 3. The cooling fan for the controls should not operate. 4. Care must always be taken when handling foods in the home.
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. 10. Cook meat thoroughly - use a meat thermometer if preferred, which penetrates the joint to check that the centre temperature has reached the required temperature (see table below). MEAT 1.
OVEN CLEAN FEATURE USES OF OVEN CLEAN FEATURE During normal use the Stayclean coating within the oven will become splashed with fats and food residues. When the oven clean feature is selected the Stayclean surfaces burn off any soilage. See Care and Cleaning on page 44 for instructions. Regular use of the oven clean function will keep the Stayclean panels in good condition. SELECTING OVEN CLEAN BS 631 BS 641 l Remove oven shelves and bakeware from oven. l Turn the selector to oven clean.
HINTS AND TIPS l Manual cleaning of the Stayclean surfaces is NOT recommended. Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool pads, aerosol cleaners, or any abrasive cleaners are used. l l l l l Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean surfaces may occur in time, but this will not affect their self cleaning properties. Use the oven clean function for an hour or two per week to avoid a build up of soilage which could prevent the Stayclean enamel from working properly.
CARE AND CLEANING BEFORE CLEANING THE COOKER ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS The outer door glass is removable for cleaning. TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS 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.
TO CLEAN INSIDE THE INNER GLASS DOOR HINTS AND TIPS The inner glass door is not removable. Clean using hot soapy water or Hob Brite Cream Cleaner and a soft cloth. Take care NOT to use abrasives as they may damage the glass or seal. l CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN The Stayclean surfaces inside the oven should not be cleaned manually. See 'Care of Stayclean Surfaces'. The vitreous enamel on the oven base can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with care.
REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT BULB The type of bulb required is a 300C 25 watt small Edison Screw. Part number 572 491 5431-00/1. (Available through Tricity Bendix service centres). CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE COOKER FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE REPLACING THE BULB. Open the oven door and remove the shelves to enable easy access to the oven light assembly. Insert a flat blade screwdriver between the oven side and the glass which covers the bulb.
