Grill

TO USE THE GRILL

1.Open the top oven/grill door and remove the grill pan.

2.Remove the heat shield from the rear of the shelf for maximum grilling area.

3.Place the shelf in the appropriate position.

4.Press the ignition button and then push in and turn the control knob clockwise to the large flame symbol. Continue to push in the control knob for a further 3 seconds after the gas has lit, to allow time for the safety device to operate.

If the burner extinguishes when the control knob is released, repeat the procedure ensuring the control knob is fully depressed and allowing more time for the safety device to operate.

5.Slide the grill pan along the shelf towards the rear of the grill compartment until it stops.

6.Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the heat input. Only turn the control knob between the large flame symbol and the small flame symbol when adjusting the setting.

7.To turn off, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the symbol O.

The grill cannot be used at the same time as the top oven.

If for any reason the grill burner has not lit after 15 seconds, turn the control knob to the off position, leave the grill goor open and wait for at least one minute before attempting to light the burner again.

An odour may be noticed when first using the grill – this should cease after a short period of use.

DO NOT use the grill with the door closed.

DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat and create a fire hazard.

RELIGHTING THE BURNER

In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.

Grilling can be started from cold but for best results preheat for approximately two minutes. Most cooking is done with the heat on full, but it may be desirable to reduce it for thicker pieces of meat or for keeping food warm.

For au gratin dishes eg. Macaroni Cheese and meringue toppings eg. Baked Alaska, place the dish on the floor of the grill compartment. The base of the grill pan can be used for warming fruit garnishes on the reduced setting.
