    Using the Top Oven for Solarplus Grilling Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional grill. We have developed a 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 pre-heat before food is placed beneath them, but for normal grilling the Solarplus grill can be used directly from cold without any pre-heat.

  • Page 28: Main Oven Cookery Notes

    Main Oven - Fan Oven Cookery Notes Since a fan oven heats up more quickly, and generally cooks food at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating the oven is often unnecessary. However, foods such as bread, scones, Yorkshire pudding, do benefit from being placed in a pre-heated oven. The charts are a guide only, giving approximate cooking temperatures and times.
  • Page 29 Main Oven - Fan Oven Cookery Notes Temperature and Time The oven is provided with two shelves. A third is available as an optional extra, contact Genuine Parts & Accessories Hotline (see back page) for further information. If three shelves are used to cook large quantities of food for home freezing or parties, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in the charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to the extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food.
