Control Panel LEFT LEFT FRONT REAR PLATE PLATE Control Knobs The knobs for the grill and hotplates can be rotated in either direction to provide variable heat control, the Oven knob can only be rotated clockwise from the Off position. Note: Always ensure that all controls are in the OFF position, when the appliance is not in use.
Using the Hob Hob Controls Each control can be used to select one of six temperature settings from position 1 (minimum) to position 6 (maximum). For normal cooking, after having placed the pan on the required hob position, set the control knob to 6 (maximum), wait until boiling point is reached, then set the control knob to a lower position as required.

Using the Hob Choosing your For best results we recommend the use of good quality saucepans Utensils with smooth flat bases. Aluminium pans with coloured vitreous enamelled bases absorb heat and are more efficient in use. Almost equally as good are saucepans with a thick machines aluminium base.
Temperature Conversion Scale Comparative scale of oven settings (degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit) as recommended by the Association of Manufacturers of Domestic Electrical Appliances. The temperature control knobs on this electric cooker are marked in degrees Celcius. This chart will help when the recipes show alternative scales.
Grilling CAUTION: ACCESSIBLE PARTS WILL BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE GRILL DOOR CLOSED. Open the grill door. Pre-heat the grill on setting 6 for approximately 5 minutes. When toasting / grilling push the pan back to correctly position it under the grill element.
Oven Cookery Notes The oven is fitted with ‘Stayclean’ liners, two rod shelves and a meat pan. Remove the meat pan if it is not being used. To heat the oven, turn the control knob clockwise, selecting the required temperature between 80˚C (175˚F) and 230˚C (450˚F) as recommended in the temperature chart.

Oven Temperature Charts – Meat The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat thermometer will indicate when the required internal temp has been reached.

The Slow Cook Setting ‘S’ This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods. Extra care must be taken when warming bone china as it may be damaged if too hot. Some advantages of slow cooking are: The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.

Using The Slow Cook Setting Points to bear in mind when preparing food:– 1. Make sure all dishes will fit into the oven before preparing the food. 2. All dishes cooked by the ‘S’ setting should be cooked for a minimum of 6 hours.
