COOKING MODES AND INSTRUCTIONS

Fan Grill
Fan grilling is a combination of direct heat and circulated hot air which gives the appearance and flavour similar
to rotisserie cooking – a crunchy exterior with succulent meat – which is ideal for single level roasts. In this mode
the direct infrared heat from the grill element is also circulated by the fan to cook the food. Note that the food
should be positioned as near to the centre of the oven as possible.
With the added benefit of the circulated air, more even cooking can be achieved giving excellent results. The Fan
Grill mode has been developed to replace grilling with the door open and has the following advantages over
conventional grilling:–
1. Food is generally more moist.
2. Improved rotisserie style flavour.
3. Most cooking fumes from grilling pass through the oven vent.
4. Reduced spatter when cooking fatty meats.
For even browning, St George recommends turning food once only.
Using Fan Grill Mode
1. OVEN DOOR MUST BE CLOSED IN Fan Grill MODE
2. Place food on grill rack and pan supplied (ensure grill rack is inverted to the high position to allow best
circulation of air).
3. Place grill pan on shelf carrier so that the food is positioned as close as possible to the centre of the oven.
4. Select Fan Grill on mode switch.
5. Set the oven to the desired temperature. (see Note below and refer to Fan Grill Temperature Guide)
6. When cooking is complete turn the mode switch and thermostat off.
NOTE: Large grill pans or roasting dishes can restrict the circulation of air in the oven. To prevent moisture condensing in
the cooler lower sections of the oven, preheat the oven for approximately 10 minutes using Normal Oven or High
Bake modes prior to fan grilling.
NOTE: The temperature setting in Fan Grill mode must not exceed 200
°C (390°F).
The grill element has a safety shutdown at approximately 200
°C (390°F). Once the temperature in the oven has
reached this limit the element will be switched off. The element will switch back on once the oven cools slightly.
WARNING: The grill pan handle provided should only be used to assist in sliding the grill pan in and out of the oven
compartments. AT NO TIME MAY IT BE USED FOR LIFTING THE GRILL PAN, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE
PAN IS LADEN WITH FOOD.
