USES OF THERMAL FAN ASSISTED
GRILLING
Thermal fan assisted grilling offers an alternative
method of cooking food items normally associated
with conventional grilling.
The grill element and the oven fan operate together,
circulating hot air around the food. The need to
check and turn food is reduced. Thermal fan
assisted grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in
the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven door
closed.
With the exception of toast and rare steaks you can
thermal grill all the foods you would normally cook
under a conventional grill.
SELECTING THERMAL GRILLING
The lower part of the oven can be used to cook
accompaniments at the same time, e.g. tomatoes
and mushrooms with a mixed grill or breakfast.
Dishes prepared in advance such as shepherd's pie,
lasagne and au gratin's can be heated through and
browned on the top using the thermal grilling
function.
•
Scroll through the main oven function selections
using or until the 'Thermal Grill' neon is
illuminated.
•
Wait 5 seconds until your choice is confirmed
and the neon stops flashing. The temperature
will automatically set to 180°C.
•
If you wish to alter the set temperature, you may
do so by pressing or until the required
setting is reached.
•
A temperature of between 140°C and 220°C is
suitable for thermal grilling.
THINGS TO NOTE
1. The main oven indicator neon will glow until the
oven has reached the desired temperature and
then go OUT. It will the turn ON and OFF
periodically during cooking showing that the oven
temperature is being maintained.
2. The oven fan and internal oven light will come
on.
3. The cooling fan for the controls may operate after
a time. It may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has cooled. See
page 13 for further details on the operation of the
cooling fan.
4. Always keep the oven door closed and the grill
handle removed when cooking with thermal fan
assisted grilling.
