Using the grill pan kit

The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle
securely before use:

1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external
hooks embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)

2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits
exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2)
and holds the pan from the bottom.

The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The
best results are achieved by placing the oven rack
on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into
the grill pan will make the collection of grease
particles more efficient and prevent the formation of
smoke.

Using the Top Oven as
a Convection Oven

The top oven should be used to cook small
quantities of food. The oven is designed so that the
grill element operates at a reduced heat output, this
is combined with a heating element situated
underneath the floor of the oven. To ensure even
cooking of the food it is important that cooking
utensils are positioned correctly on the oven shelf so
that the element is directly above. As a guide, the
front of the utensil should be approx.100mm (4")
from the front of the shelf.

Using the Main Oven
for Fan Cooking

GB

Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly
and generally cooks food at a lower temperature
than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often
unnecessary. For guides on "pre-heating", "cooking
temperatures" and "cooking times" see "Oven
Temperature Charts" later in book.

Note: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal
taste and requirements, it may be necessary to

increase or decrease
may also be necessary to increase or decrease
cooking times.

When two shelves are in use to cook large quantities
of food, it may be necessary to increase the cooking
times given in the temperature charts by a few

food. Baking trays should have an even gap around

DEFROSTING FROZEN MEAT & POULTRY

Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted
slowly, preferably in a refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours
per lb.) or at room temperature (allowing 2-3 hours
per lb.). Frozen meat or poultry must be completely
defrosted before cooking in the oven. However, to
decrease the amount of time required to defrost food
items, a nonheating fan only setting may be
selected for the main oven only.

OPERATION: TO ASSIST IN DEFROSTING:

This defrosts by circulating the air around the food,
time to defrost will depend on type and size of the
food.

NOTES: DO NOT defrost meat and poultry by
warming the food through.

Foods ideally suited to defrosting using the fan only
setting are cream/cream cakes, butter cream filled
cakes, gateaux, cheese cakes, iced cakes, quiches,
pastries, biscuits, bread, croissants, fruit and many
delicate frozen foods. If fish, meat and poultry are to
be defrosted using the fan only setting, where
possible it is recommended that the food should be
small and thin.
The items should be placed so that the maximum
amount of surface area is exposed to the circulating
air, and that they are turned regularly to ensure even
defrosting.
Larger cuts of meat and poultry may be defrosted
by using the fan only setting up to a maximum
weight of 2 kg (4lb 8oz).
It is important to wash both meat and poultry and
cooking utensils immediately after defrosting and
before cooking. Food should be cooked immediately
after defrosting.

'S' SLOW COOK SETTING

This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm
and warming plates for short periods.
Extra care should be taken when warming bone
china, as it may be damaged in a hot oven.

DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven
floor as this could damage both the oven lining
and the plates which are being warmed.

ADVANTAGES OF SLOW COOKING ARE:

The oven stays cleaner because there is less
splashing. Timing of food is not as critical, so there
is less fear of overcooking. Inexpensive joints of
meat are tenderised. Fully loading the oven can be
economical. Cooking times can be extended in
some cases by up to 2 hours.

OPERATION:

(for models BD62 & BD52):

1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure
the door is fully closed.

2. Select Slow Cooking Temperature 'S' by turning the
Main Oven Temperature & Function Control (C)
clockwise.

STORAGE & RE-HEATING OF FOOD:

1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately,
place it in a clean container and cool as soon as
possible.

2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the
refrigerator before re-heating.

3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping
hot before serving.

4. O

nly re-heat food once.

POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN PREPARING
FOOD FOR SLOW COOKING

1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into
the oven ensuring enough room for air to circulate.

2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a
minimum of 6 hours, however, if they are cooked
for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their
appearance may be noticed.

3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry
over 2.0kg (4lb 8oz). We do not recommend that
joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking
on the slow setting.

4. To seal in
poultry at 170°C for 30 minutes before wrapping in
foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good
air circulation) before turning the control to the slow
setting and cooking immediately.

5. Always ensure that joints of
thoroughly cooked by checking with a meat
thermometer before serving.

6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before
cooking. We do not recommend placing frozen food
in the oven to cook.

7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the
boil before placing in

8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal (not
airtight) and cover to the top with foil to prevent
loss of moisture.

9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even

COOKING MEAT/POULTRY IN THE TOP OVEN

Small joints of meat up to 1.5Kg (3 lbs) and poultry up to 3.6Kg (8lbs) can be roasted in a small meat pan in the
top oven.

IF USING ALUMINIUM FOIL

1. Never allow foil to touch sides of oven. 2. Never cover interior with foil. 3. Never cover shelves with foil.

The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert a meat
thermometer into the thickest part of a joint of meat, or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking
period. The meat thermometer will indicate when the required internal temperature has been reached.

Care and Cleaning

L

&

Warning: Before cleaning, please ensure that the
electricity supply to the appliance is switched off
and the appliance is fully cold.

! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.

!

Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge
and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.

! The accessories can be washed like averyday

crockery (even in your dishwasher).

1. "STAYCLEAN" OVEN LINERS
(Top Oven Sides, Main Oven Sides and

TOP OVEN SIDES

It should not normally be necessary to clean the
"Stayclean" panels with water. If the user feels it is
desirable to do so, wipe them over with a clean,
soapy cloth, followed by a wipe with a clean damp
cloth.

DO NOT use biological washing powder, harsh
abrasives or chemical oven

cleaners of any kind

as this could damage the "Stayclean" oven liners.

GB

MAIN OVEN SIDES AND REAR PANE

(a) How "Stayclean" works.

The surfaces of the "Stayclean" oven liners (Main
Oven rear panel) are treated with a special vitreous
enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At
temperatures of 220°C (425°F) or above, the special
surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed.
The higher the temperature the more effective it is.

(b) Cleaning.

In most cases normal cooking operations at 220°C
(425°F) will permit this cleaning operation to proceed
during cooking. However if higher cooking
temperatures are not used regularly, it may be
necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run
the ovens without shelves or meat pan, at a
maximum setting for a couple of hours (Fan Oven
mode only).

(b) Grill Pan, Meat Pan & Oven Shelves.

To prevent stains from being burnt on to the grill
pan, food support and rod shelf, always wash
immediately after use in warm soapy water.
Use a well soaped fine steel wool soap pad to
remove stubborn stains from the rod shelves, grill
pan, meat pan and the base of the oven.

DO NOT use aerosol cleaners on this oven as
they could

adversely affect the fan motor unit,

and cannot be wiped off the fan blade.
