Grill/second oven The grill and the second oven are operated by the same control so you cannot use them both at the same time. Grill To light: 1 Open the door. 2 Push in the control knob and turn it to the left to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. 3 Leave[...]

The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the grid to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food. Heat control The grill control has two[...]

General The shelf in the grill/second oven is different from the shelves in the main oven. It is important that you do not swap them over. Only use the shelf with the solid metal plate underneath it in the grill/second oven. The grill pan handle can be removed. To put the handle on to the pan you should put the chrome bracket over the cut out in th[...]

The hotplate You can only use the hotplate when the lid is open. If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 28 for more information. Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH&ap[...]

S O N A T A 5 5 L X a 10 The hotplat e For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip. Put pans on the centre of the burners. Position pan handles so they canno[...]

Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. 2 Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. 3 Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen. 4 Try cooking more than one vegetable in t[...]

Before you use the ovens you should wipe them out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones Main ove n - There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make u[...]

Most second oven cooking should be carried out using the shelf provided in shelf position 2. However when cooking a small joint or a deep cake you can use the shelf on the base of the second oven to allow enough air to circulate around the food. For safety the shelves will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely, pull it forw[...]

Condensation Condensation may form on the cooker. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about. The condensation forms when heat and moisture are present, for example during cooking. Whenever possible try to make sure that food which contains a lot of moisture, for example casseroles, are covered. If you do notice any condensation, wipe it up st[...]

Oven cooking chart - Main oven These instructions are for cooking in the oven after it has been pre-heated for 20 minutes. If you are cooking more than one tray of similar items, for example cakes or biscuits, swap the trays around during cooking or you can take the top tray out of the oven when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the hig[...]

Hints and tips for automatic cooking 1 Check the instructions for setting the automatic controls until you are familiar with the timer operation. 2 If the oven has been used, allow it to cool completely before using for automatic cooking. 3 You should leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before automatic cooking starts. 4 Do not l[...]

Slow cooking Please note: There is no slow cook on the second oven. The slow cook setting gives a very low heat in the oven. It is particularly useful when you are cooking soups, stews and casseroles because the long slow cooking will make cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender. You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes before you turn [...]

Soups, casseroles and stews Do not cook casseroles over 3kg (6lb). Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above. Vegetables Cut into small pieces. Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish. Place vegetables under meat in casseroles. Cook fo[...]

Care and cleaning Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet. Please note: If we recommend you use hot soapy water we mean hot water with washing up liquid in it and not any other cleaning product. If you own a dishwasher please read the operating instructions for the m[...]

Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time. Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the pan [...]

The main oven The sides and back of your oven are coated in a special material which helps to keep itself clean. Follow these simple rules to maintain the appearance of the special finish. Do not overfill dishes or they will boil over. Do not put dishes too high in the oven. If you do they may stick to the oven roof. Cover your roasting tins with f[...]

Main oven cleaning cycle Please note: The oven cleaning cycle can only be used in the main oven. You need to follow the cycle to keep the inside of the oven in good condition. The type of cooking you do will affect how often you need to follow the cycle. If you do a lot of roasting and very little other baking you should follow the cleaning cycle o[...]
