GRILLING
Important
All grilling must be carried out with the oven
door closed and the grill pan handle removed
from the pan.
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
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, we suggest that the top runner
position is used with the grid in its 'high' position
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
The food should be turned over during cooking, as
required.
NOTE:
For safety in use, the grill element is controlled
by the thermostat. During cooking, the grill
cycles on and off to prevent overheating.

Cooking time depends on the thickness of the meat
and not on its weight.

GRILLING - INNER GRILL ELEMENT
Important
All grilling must be carried out with the oven door
closed and the grill pan handle removed from the pan.
The inner grill provides, quick direct heat to the central
area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill for cooking
small quantities it can help to save energy.
Always grill with the door closed and remove the grill pan
handle.
Place the food in the centre of of the grid in the grill pan.
Adjust the gril and grill pan runner position to allow for
different thicknesses of food and follow the instructions
for grilling.
THERMAL GRILLING
Use of thermal grilling
Thermal grilling 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 food is reduced. Thermal 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.
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 gratins can be heated through and
browned on the top using the thermal grilling function.
•
Turn the multifunction selector to Thermal Grill
.
•
Turn the main oven temperature control to the
required setting (a temperature of between 140
°
C and
200
°
C is suitable for thermal grilling).
NOTE:
Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the
kitchen and is carried out with the main oven door closed,
and with the grill pan handle removed.
