mushrooms may be placed underneath the
grid when grilling meats
- When toasting bread, we suggest that the top
runner position is used.
- The food should be turned over during
cooking, as required.
How to use the Full Grill
1. Turn the oven control function knob on .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the
required temperature.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different thicknesses of food. Position
the food close to the element for faster cooking
and further away for more gentle cooking.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes
before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat
setting and the shelf as necessary, during cooking.
During cooking, the cooling fan and the thermostat
control light will operate in the same way as
described for the fan oven function.
How to use the Inner Grill Element
The inner grill provides quick direct heat to the
central area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill
element for cooking small quantities, it can help to
save energy.
1. Turn the oven control function knob on
.
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required
temperature.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different thicknesses of food and follow
the instructions for grilling.
The grill element is controlled by the thermostat.
During cooking, the grill cycles on and off to prevent
overheating..
How to Use the Thermal Grill
Thermal grilling offers an alternative method
of cooking food items normally associated with
conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven
fan operate alternately, circulating hot air around
the food. The need to check and turn the food is
reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimize
cooking smells in the kitchen.
With the exception of toast and rare steaks,
you can thermally grill all the foods you would
normally cook under a conventional grill. Cooking
is more gentle, therefore food generally takes a
little longer to cook with thermal grilling compared
with conventional grilling. One of the advantages
is that larger quantities can be cooked at the same
time.
1. Turn the oven control function knob on
.
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the
required temperature. Select a maximum
temperature of 200°C
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position
to allow for different thicknesses of food and follow
the instructions for grilling.
Defrosting
The oven fan operates without heat and circulates
the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This
increases the speed of defrosting. However,
please note that the temperature of the kitchen will
influence the speed of defrosting.
This function is particularly suitable for delicate
food which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream
filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and
other yeast products.
-
Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic
film to prevent drying out during defrosting.
- Always cook thoroughly immediately
after thawing.
- Frozen food should be placed in a single layer
when ever possible and turned over half way
through the defrosting process.
- Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. (4
lb.) are suitable for defrosting in this way.
