the hotplate burners.
Using the Electric Hotplate (Dual Fuel Models)
Ensure power is switched on. The hotplate
control is numbered from 1 to 6. To turn it
on, rotate the knob either clockwise or anti-
clockwise to the required position. Position 1 is
the coolest setting. To turn off, rotate the knob
until the line or pointer on the knob lines up
with the zero on the control panel.
The hotplate is a sealed construction and
transfers heat through conduction.
maximum efficiency a correctly sized pan with
a flat heavy gauge base should be used. Pan
size should be the same or slightly larger (up
to 1" / 2.5cm oversize).
Before using your hotplate for the first time,
we recommend that you prime and season it.
To prime the Hotplate
Switch on the hotplate for a short period,
without a pan, to harden and burn off the
coating. Use a medium to high setting for 3 – 5
minutes. A non toxic smoke may occur during
this process. Allow it to cool, then season.
To season the Hotplate
First heat the hotplate for 30 seconds on a
medium setting, and then switch off. Pour a
minimal amount of unsalted vegetable oil onto
a clean dry cloth or paper towel, and apply a
thin coat of oil to the hotplate surface. Wipe
off any excess oil, then heat the hotplate on
a medium setting for 1 minute. Occasional
seasoning will help to maintain the Hotplate's
appearance.

Using the Grill

1. Ensure gas cylinder/supply is connected
and turned on. In the event of a gas smell
turn off at gas cylinder/mains and contact
supplier.
2. To light: Open door, push in the control

out, repeat procedure holding control
knob for slightly longer.
3. For models fitted with Spark Ignition
the procedure is similar except that the
burner can be ignited by depressing the
ignition button, which is located on the
fascia. Ignition must be carried out with
the door open, and if the burner has not lit
within 15 seconds the control knob should
be released and the grill left for at least 1
minute before a further attempt to ignite
the burner.
4. Note: the grill must only be used with the
door open.
5. On first use of the grill, it should be
heated for about 20 minutes to eliminate
any residual factory lubricants that might
impart unpleasant smells to the food
being cooked. A non-toxic smoke may
occur when using for the first time so
open any windows and turn on mechanical
ventilators to help remove the smoke.
6. Although the grill does heat up quickly, a
few minutes preheat is recommended.

7. Flame Failure Device (FFD): the grill burner
is fitted with a flame sensing probe, which
will automatically cut off the gas supply
in the event of the flame going out. In
the event of the burner flames being

burner control and do not attempt to re-
ignite the burner for at least one minute.
