To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure
that the cut out on the underside of the handle
bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf.

To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to tend the
food during cooking, or the carrier shelf can be lifted
away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant
work surface.

HINTS AND TIPS

l

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.

l

Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different heights of food.

l

The use of the trivet beneath the grid when
grilling fatty food will keep fat splashing to a
minimum.

l

Place food on the grill pan grid in the grill pan
or on the trivet in the grill pan.

l

Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid
when grilling meats.

l

When toasting bread use the cranked shelf in
position 2 with the grid in the high position.

l

Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before cooking. Adjust the heat setting
and the shelf as necessary during cooking.

l

The food should be turned over during cooking
as required.
