CAUTION:ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN GRILL IS IN

Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The Solarplus
high speed grill which 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 preheat before food is placed beneath them, but
for normal grilling the Solarplus grill can be used directly from cold with-
out any preheat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is
achieved by preheating the grill for about 1 minute.
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh. Under
no circumstances should pointed objects be inserted into the mesh.
During use the mesh may become soiled. DO NOT attempt to clean it
while the grill is 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 rod shelf is in 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. Select full grill or
