The grill

The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary
the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food
you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly.

You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to

cook the food.

Prior to using the grill

We suggest that you operate the grill for approximately 5 - 10 mins to
burn off any residue from the surface.  During this period a slight odour
may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for
ventilation.

When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the
burner heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance.

Heat control

The grill control has two heat settings.

The control knob turns

anticlockwise from 'OFF' to 'HIGH'
and then to 'LOW'. Use the high
setting for fast cooking such as toast.
Use the low setting to cook thicker
food such as chicken after you have
browned it on the high setting.

For your safety

The grill pan and handle must be in place before igniting the grill.
You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit.
Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young
children should be kept away.
Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill
fires.
