Using The Electric Hotplate; Using The Grill - Bailey Pursuit Owner's Manual

94
• The following pan sizes are the maximum
we recommend:
• Electric hotplate: - Ø180mm (Dual Fuel
only)
• Auxiliary burner: Ø200mm
• Semi-rapid burner: 2x Ø200mm or 1x
Ø220mm with 1x Ø180mm
• When using small pans the flames should
not spread beyond the base of the pan
as this will reduce the efficiency of the
burner.
• Avoid old or misshapen pans as these
may cause instability.
• The lid must be opened fully prior to
using 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. For
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
knob and turn to full rate–large flame
( ). Hold a lighted match or taper to the
burner, push the control knob in and hold.
The burner should ignite and the control
knob should be held in for 10–15 seconds
before release. If the burner goes 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 accidentally extinguished, turn off
the burner control and do not attempt to
re-ignite the burner for at least 1 minute.
It is normal for the flames on this burner
to develop yellow tips as it heats up.
