Solarplus Grill
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when
the grill is in use - children should be kept away.
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.
Notes
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:
MAXIMUM is the hottest and MINIMUM the coolest.
GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH
THE TOP OVEN/GRILL DOOR CLOSED
- This will cause overheating.
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control
is in the Off position, 'O'.
To operate the grill proceed as follows:
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.
