Grilling - Zanussi ZCE569NW1 Instruction Book

Oven thermostat pilot light
This light will illuminate when a temperature is
selected and remain lit until the selected
temperature has been reached. It then cycles on
and off to indicate that the temperature is being
maintained.
During use the appliance becomes hot.
Care should be taken to avoid touching
heating elements inside the oven.
Hints and Tips
There should always be at least 2.5 cm between
the top of the food and the element. This gives
the best cooking results and allows room for rise
in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings, etc. When
cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread, etc., place
the tins or baking trays centrally below element.
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf
and there is sufficient room around the baking
tray/dish to allow for maximum circulation.
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to
prevent spillage onto the oven base and to help
reduce cleaning.
Enamelware, dark, or heavy utensils increase
base browning. Shiny aluminium or polished
steel trays reflect the heat away and give less
base browning.
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven
base as it becomes very hot and damage may
occur.
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as a baking
tray as this will increase base browning of the
food.
For economy leave the door open for the
shortest possible time, particularly when placing
food into a preheated oven.

Grilling

All grilling must be carried out with
the oven door closed .
To switch on the grill, turn the oven
function control knob to GRILL, then turn the
thermostat knob to the maximum temperature.
Most foods should be placed on the grid in the
grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to
lift the food out of the fats and juices. Food
such as fish, liver and kidneys may be placed
directly on the grill pan, if preferred.
Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to
allow for different thicknesses of food.
Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling
to minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and
fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to
keep them moist during cooking.
Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the
grid when grilling meats.
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top
runner position is used with'the 'rid in its 'high'
position.
Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before sealing steaks or toasting.
Adjust the heat setting and the shelf as
necessary, during cooking.
The food should be turned over during
cooking, as required.
NOTE: For safety in use, the grill element is
controlled by the thermostat. During
cooking, the grill cycles on and off to
prevent overheating.
Cooking time depends on the thickness of the
meat and not on its weight.
