To check the progress of the food being grilled, the

HINTS AND TIPS
•
Most foods should be placed on the grid in the 
grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift 
the food out of the fats and juices. 
•
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. 
•
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 around the outer 
edges or underneath the grid when grilling 
meats. 
•
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top 
runner position is used with the grid in its 'high' 
position. 
•
When using the centre section grill, ensure food 
is placed centrally on the grilling grid directly 
beneath the grill element. 
•
Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes 
to seal meat or for toasting. Adjust the heat 
setting and the shelf position as necessary during 
cooking.
•
The food should be turned over during cooking 
as required.
