PREHEATING THE OVEN 

The Grill heating element at the top of the oven
cavity has one power setting only.  It is efficient and
economical.
The efficiency of the grill is assisted by the turntable
which rotates simultaneously to ensure even
browning.  The grill is ideal for cooking bacon,
gammon steak, fish fingers and tea cakes.  For
example, you can make toast or cheese on toast. It
is ideal for browning and crisping food which has
been microwaved.
Use the high rack for grilling small items of food such
as bacon, steak and toast, turn over halfway through
grilling.  Food can be placed directly on the rack or

placed in a flan dish or on a heat-resistant plate.
When browning and crisping the surface of foods in
a casserole dish, the high rack can be used if the
container is shallow enough.  However, it is
advisable to place such containers directly on the
turntable or low rack, allow a little extra time to
brown and crisp as desired.

NOTE:

When first using the grill heater, smoke and odour
will be given off.  To avoid this happening when
food is being cooked, heat the grill heater without
food for approx. 20 minutes.
