(EW52)
CAUTION: ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN
GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
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
without any pre-heat.
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.
This stops you from touching live parts, so 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 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 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.
Turning the control knob clockwise, will switch both sides on.
Turning it anti-clockwise, will only switch the left side on.
The numbers indicate the heat setting: 4 is the hottest 1 the coolest.

GRILL/TOP OVEN DOOR CLOSED. This will cause overheating.
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the Off
position.
