The hotplate burners
You should read ‘hotplate burners’ in the ‘2
Minute Tour’ before all the following
information
If a burner flame goes out, turn the control knob
off and leave it for one minute before relighting it.
You can remove the burner parts for
cleaning, see page 14.
You should wipe the enamel top surface of the
cooker around the hotplate burners as soon as
possible after spills occur. Try to wipe them off
while the enamel is still warm.
Avoid using unstable and misshapen pans that
may tilt easily and pans with a very small base
diameter e.g. milk pans, single egg poachers.
The minimum pan diameter recommended is
120mm. Smaller pans will be unstable.
Pans and kettles with down turned base rims
should not be used.
The griddle
You should read ‘griddle’ in the 2 Minute Tour
before all the following information
Use the following heat settings as a guide for
griddle cooking.
High/medium:
Drop scones, Bacon, Chops, Steak, Burgers.
Medium/low:
Potato cakes, Eggs, Fish cakes.
Experience will soon familiarise you with the
correct setting to use for cooking.
After cooking allow the griddle to cool before
cleaning.
Don’t put it on the Wok burner - it is not designed
to fit the Wok burner pan support.
The grill
You should read ‘grill’ in the 2 Minute Tour’
before all the following information
Never close the grill door while the grill is
on.
Don’t leave the grill on for more than a few
moments, without the grill pan underneath it.
The grill door has a rest position, just before
it is fully open. Use this when you want to
open the left hand oven door and use the
grill at the same time.
For best results, especially on toast, preheat the
grill with the grill pan in the cooking position for
two minutes before use.
The grill trivet can be removed and the food
placed on it while you are waiting for the grill
to preheat.
The grill pan grid can be turned over to give two
grilling positions.
You can brown the top of dishes cooked in the
oven, under the grill. Remove the grill trivet and
place the dish onto the base of the grill pan.
Slide the grill pan along the floor of the grill
cavity.
