AUTOMATIC COOKING It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before automatic cooking. Always ensure commercially prepared food is well within its use by date and that home prepared food is fresh and of good quality.
THE DUAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PART MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. CHILDREN The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes, the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food. USING THE GRILL Please note: D2160-1G control knobs and graphics will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram. 1.
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. 1. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. 2. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan. 1. 2. Ensure the handle is correctly located. The grill pan handle should be in place when grilling. 3. To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill pan. 3.
· Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes to seal meat or for toasting. Adjust the heat setting and the shelf position as necessary during cooking. · The food should be turned over during cooking as required. · When using the centre section grill, ensure food is placed centrally on the grilling grid directly beneath the grill element. Note If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered from your local Service Force Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6.
THE SECOND OVEN The second oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food on one shelf. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche. The second oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a temperature setting of 80°C - 100°C on the second oven temperature control.
HINTS AND TIPS · All cooking should be carried out using shelf positions one and two. Shelf positions are counted from the bottom upwards. Shelf position 3 should be reserved for grilling only. · There should always be at least 2.5cm (1”) between the top of the food and the element. This gives 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 the element.
THE MAIN FAN OVEN The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food. The advantages of fan oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating however you may need to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the recommended cooking times. For recipes needing high temperatures e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first.
USING THE TELESCOPIC RUNNERS (where fitted) 1. Ensure the telescopic runners are pushed back into the oven cavity before fitting the shelf. FORM 2. Holding the front edge of the shelf with both hands, place the rear shelf forms over the telescopic runners. RETAINING HOOK 3. Slide the shelf into position, lifting slightly at the front so that the shelf locates into the retaining hooks. To remove, raise the front edge and withdraw the shelf. Ensure the shelf is positively located before using.

DEFROST FEATURE This main oven function enables you to defrost most foods without heat faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc. USING DEFROST FEATURE Please note: D2160-1G control knobs and graphics will differ in type and shape from that shown in the diagram. 1.
· Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be thawed using the defrost function. · All joints of meat and poultry must be thawed thoroughly before cooking. · Always cook thawing. · DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it is defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store cooked food in the fridge, once it has cooled. · Care must always be taken when handling foods in the home.
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD 10. Cook meat thoroughly – use a meat thermometer if preferred, which penetrates the joint to check that the centre temperature has reached the required temperature (see table below).
