Use of Grill
GRILLING MUST BE DONE WITH THE GRILL DOOR OPEN.
CONTROL KNOBS MAY BECOME HOT DURING GRILLING.
CAUTION: ACCESSIBLE PARTS WILL BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL
IS USED - CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
To operate the grill proceed as follows:
Open the grill door and remove the grill pan.
Push in and turn the control knob clockwise to the large flame symbol. Continue to push in the
control knob for at least a further 5 seconds after the gas has lit, to allow time for the safety
device to operate. If the burner extinguishes when the control knob is released, repeat the
procedure ensuring the control knob is fully depressed and allowing more time for the safety
device to operate.
Grill Pan Handle
Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the desired setting. There is a delay of about six seconds whilst the
safety device operates before the burner comes on full. Only turn the control knob between the large
flame symbol and the small flame symbol when adjusting the setting.
Slide the grill pan along the runner towards the rear of the grill compartment until it stops. An
odour may be noticed when first using the grill - this schould cease after a short period of use.
Grill can be started from cold but for the best result preheat for approximately five
minutes. Most cooking is done with the heat on full, but it may be necessary after sealing the
food to reduce the heat as required.
For au gratin dishes eg. Macaroni Cheese and meringue toppings eg. Baked Alaska place the
dish on the floor of the grill compartment. The base of the grill pan can be used for warming
fruit garnishes on the reduced setting.
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat and create a fire hazard.
Relighting‘
the burner 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 one minute.
Fixing the Grill Pan
Handle
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan
handle securely before use:
1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external ‘hooks’ embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)
2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig
2) and holds the pan from the bottom.
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The best results are achieved by placing the oven
rack on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into the grill pan will make the collection of
grease particles more efficient and prevent the formation of smoke.
