Solarplus Grill
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use
- children should be kept away.
GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE TOP OVEN/GRILL DOOR CLOSED
- This will cause overheating.
Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The
solarplus grill is designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker
because it takes less time to warm up from cold. Conventional grills
require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed beneath them, but
for normal grilling the solarplus grill can be used from cold without any
pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved
by pre-heating the grill for about 1 minute.
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh.
This stops you from touching live parts.
DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh
as this could damage or break the element tubes OR if the grill is
on cause an electric shock.
During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it
while the grill is still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and
wait until it has cooled down before cleaning.
Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted - DO
NOT store the grill pan handle on the grill pan grid when the grill pan
runners are on the top runner position.
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the
right. You can choose to have both sides on or just the left side on.
Turning the control knob clockwise, will switch both sides on. Turning
it anti-clockwise, will only switch the left side on.
The numbers which are displayed indicate the heat setting:
Number 4 is the hottest and number 1 the coolest.
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the Off
position, ‘O’.
1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.
2. Position the rod shelf as recommended, in the chart (next page),
for the food being cooked.
3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is positioned
centrally under the element.
4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause
overheating of fat in the grill pan.
To operate the grill
