THERMALGRILLING
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 fan assisted 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.
SELECTING THERMAL GRILLING
Turn the main oven function selector to Thermal Grilling. 
Turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting. (A temperature of between 140°C and 220°C is suitable for thermal grilling).
THINGS TO NOTE
The main oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will then turn ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the oven temperature is being maintained.
The oven fan and internal oven light will come on.
The cooling fan for the controls may operate after a period of time. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. See page 13 for further details on the operation of the cooling fan.
Always thermal grill with the oven door closed and the grill pan handle removed.
