Top Oven - Conventional Cooking

GB

Using the grill pan kit

 

The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle securely before use:

1.Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external ‘hooks’ embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)

2.Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits

exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2) and holds the pan from the bottom.

The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan. Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The best results are achieved by placing the oven rack on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into the grill pan will make the collection of grease particles more efficient and prevent the formation of smoke.

The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the grill element and the element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts of meat in casseroles etc. but can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3lb). The operation of the controls is covered in “The Controls” on page 6.

See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning.

The top oven can be used either independently to cook small quantities of food or in conjunction with the main oven to provide additional cooking space.

The shelf should be positioned on the first or second runner from the bottom.

To use the oven proceed as follows:

Set the top oven control to the required temperature, the top oven light will come on and wait for the thermostat light to go off, indicating that the oven has reached the right temperature.

The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre of the shelf with a gap of at least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill element. This should avoid burning and ensure even cooking.

Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the

oven.

25 mm (1 in)

Platewarming in the top oven

Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated when the main oven is in use.

When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being cooked on the hob, place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf using the bottom runner and turn the top oven control to approximately 100°C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all that is required to heat the plates and dishes.

NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven for cooking or warming plates and dishes.

WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items, china, or items which could be affected by heat into the oven.

If using aluminium foil, never:

1.Allow foil to touch sides of oven.

2.Cover oven interior with foil.

3.Cover shelves with foil.
