2. Push in the control knob and turn it to the large flame symbol

(highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When

the burner has lit release the button.

For your safety

If you close the lid of the appliance while any of the hotplate

burners are lit the gas will go out. This is because it would be

dangerous if the burners stayed on when the lid was closed.

Always use the control knob to turn off a burner. Do not use

the lid as a cut-off device. This will only cut off the gas when

the lid is closed. The gas will flow again when the lid is

opened.

Lighting the appliance

For your safety

In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished,

turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner

for at least 1 min.

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.

Lighting the appliance

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. During this period a slight odour

may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the

burner heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance.

Heat control

The grill control has two heat settings.

The control knob turns to the right

from 'OFF' to 'LOW' and then to

'HIGH'. Use the high setting for fast

cooking such as toast. Use the low

setting to cook thicker food such as

chicken after you have browned it on

the high setting.

D D O 6 1 G A

The grill

For your safety

The grill pan and handle must be in place before igniting the grill.

You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit.

Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young

children should be kept away.

Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill

fires.

Cooking positions

There is only one position for the grill shelf

(Position 2). Positions are counted from the top

downwards.

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.

General

The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the main

oven. It is important that you do not swap them over. Only use the shelf

with the solid metal plate underneath it in the grill/second oven.

When you are not using the grill you should remove the handle and store

the pan on the shelf in the grill. Turn the grill burner off before you store

the pan. Remember that the pan will get hot when you are using the

main oven.

You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are

using the main oven.

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.

Positioning food on the grid

Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and

muffins towards the centre of the grid.

Place food which needs a 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.

The grill

The grill pan and handle

The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.

To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so

that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan.

Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan.

Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to

remove the grill pan handle during grilling.

Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally

beneath the grill.

To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle

away from the cut out on the grill pan.

Note

If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered

from your local Service Force Centre by quoting part number

311479800\6.

The grill

The hotplate

You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. If you have any

trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and

make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly.

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.

Small burner (Simmer) - use for

simmering food such as soups and

stews.

The largest pan which you should use on any burner is 230mm (9").

The base of the smallest pan should not measure less than 100mm (4").
