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 underneath the grid 
when grilling meats. 
•
When toasting bread, use the shelf in position 1 
with the grid in the ‘high’ position.
•
Preheat the grill for a few minutes before sealing 
steaks or toasting. Adjust the shelf as necessary 
during cooking. 
•
The food should be turned over during cooking 
as required.
