Safety requirements for deep fat frying
1. Never ll chip pans more than one third full with oil or fat.
2. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or
cooling period.
3. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
4. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it
slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in particular
will cause frothing and spitting if added too quickly.
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free from
streaks of oil or fat.
How to deal with a fat re
1. Do not move the pan.
2. Turn off the hotplate burners.
3. Smother the ames with a re blanket or damp cloth to
extinguish the re. Do not use water or a re extinguisher
as the force of it may spread the burning fat or oil over
the edge of the pan.
4. Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving it.
Griddle
WARNING ! The oven is
provided with a stop system
to extract the racks and
prevent them from coming
out of the oven (1).
As shown in the drawing, to
extract them completely, simply
lift the racks, holding them on
the front part, and pull (2).
A non-stick griddle is supplied for use over the two burners
on the right hand side of the hob. The griddle is made of
cast iron and the surface is covered with a special nonstick
nish. To protect the non-stick coating never use metal
cooking utensils as they may scratch the surface. Wooden
or heat resistant plastic utensils may be used. Do not use
saucepans on the griddle plate.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST THE GRIDDLE PLATE
BE USED OVER ANY OTHER HOTPLATE BURNERS.
Use of the griddle
The griddle may be used with either or both of the burners
on, depending on the food being cooked. The griddle can be
positioned with the ridged portion at the front or at the rear.
1. Secure the griddle above the two simmer burners, on the
right hand side of the hob, making sure that the support
feet are located correctly on the pan support ngers.
2. Press the ignition button and then push in and turn the
control knob(s) of the burners anticlockwise to the large
ame symbol. Continue to press the ignition button until
the spark lights the gas. Preheat the griddle plate for
approximately four minutes.
3. Place the food directly on the griddle plate. However
when cooking drier foods eg. drop scones the griddle
plate can be lightly greased.
4. The controls can be left at high for the sealing of foods or
turned down to a lower heat setting depending on what
food is being cooked.
NB. A gentle heat is all that is required for the majority
of griddling. Once the griddle plate is up to temperature
it maintains the cooking temperature on a medium/low
setting.
5. Cook the food for the required time, which will depend
on the type of food being cooked.
6. To turn off, push in and turn the control knob(s) fully
clockwise to the O position.
7. Allow the griddle plate to cool before cleaning.
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally
extinguished, turn off the burner controls and do not attempt
to re-ignite the burners for at least 1 minute.
