USES 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 together,
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.
1) Turn the selector to Thermal Grill.
2) Turn the oven temperature control to the required
setting. (A temperature of between 140°C and
220°C is suitable for thermal grilling). Use the
grilling chart on page 28 as a guide.
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.
THINGS TO NOTE
The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven
has reached the desired temperature and then
go out. It will cycle ON and OFF showing that the
oven temperature is being maintained.
The cooling fan may cycle on and off during the
initial period which is quite normal.
The internal light will come on.
Warning: Do not Auto-time this function.
Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells
in the kitchen and is carried out with the main
oven door closed and the grill pan handle
removed.
