3.2. Using the Hotplate & Oven

- It is important that you use only 'oven proof' pans and dishes when using the appliance for cooking or grilling. Never allow cookware and/or utensils to come into contact with the top heating element/grill.

Do not use melamine or plastic containers when cooking or grilling.

Always take care when removing ovenware from the oven and in particular avoid touching the Grill Element.

- It is important that you use only metal pans specifically designed and/or approved for use on Ceramic Hobs. Never allow melamine or plastic containers to come in contact with the heat zones.

During initial operation of your oven, as previously mentioned, a smell will arise from the insulation materials and initial warming of the element(s).

To avoid it, we recommend operating your oven at 250^ C for 45 minutes without putting any trays in and also removing all furniture from your oven cavity (including wire shelves). This will allow the materials to burn the smell off and should then be ready to use without smoking or bad smells occurring

3.2.1. Using the Hob Heat Zones

Turn the required heat zone control knob (3, 4, 5 or 6) to the required heat setting between 1 (Low) and 6 (High). Whilst one or more of the heat zones are in use, the heat zone warning light will be on.

When you have finished, turn the control knob(s) back to the off position.

3.2.2. Operating the Grill/Top Oven

Turn the control knob to the required heat setting: top/bottom heat, top heat, single grill or double grill functions. The warning light will come on whilst the grill is being used.

You can use the grill either with the door OPEN or CLOSED. Closed door grilling is more common in Europe whereas in the UK, we tend to prefer the door to be open. You have both choices.

For CLOSED DOOR GRILLING, you wouldn't need to fit the heat deflector as the door wouldn't be able to be closed. For OPEN DOOR GRILLING, firstly ensure that your heat deflector (supplied) is fitted, then close the door as far as it will go. The door should now be resting on the heat deflector. If it isn't please assess and check again.

To grill, pre-heat the oven to the required temperature for 5 minutes and then insert the grill pan. When using the grill, you are strongly advised to fit the handle to the grill pan as shown in the pictures below. When you have finished using the grill, turn the control knob back to the off position.

off position.

3.2.1. Main Oven

We always recommend Pre-Heating. Firstly, set the required temperature and allow the oven to get to temperature (up-to 15 minutes) before placing food in the cavity.

To operate the oven, turn the control knob to the required heat setting. The thermostat light will come on until the required heat setting is achieved.
