Grilling must be carried out with the oven
door closed. The grill pan handles must be
removed from the pan.
How to Use the 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.
- 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. Food such as fish, liver and
kidneys may be placed directly on the grill pan, if
preferred
- 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, we suggest that the top runner
position is used.
- The food should be turned over during cooking, as
required.
The grill element is controlled by the thermostat. During
cooking, the grill cycles on and off to prevent overheating.

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.
How to Use the Thermal Grill
Thermal grill 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 loads 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.
Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling.
Brush lean meats and fish lightly with little oil or butter to
keep them moist during cooking.
A general guide to cooking times is given below but these
times may vary slightly depending on the thickness and
quantity of food being cooked.
