With our 80 years experience in developing and manufacturing the very best in U. K. cookers, you can be assured that you have purchased a hard working, reliable, quality product. Tricity Bendix cookers comply with British Standard safety and performance requirements. They have been approved by BEAB (British Electrotechnical Approvals Board) and are covered by a 12 month parts and labour guarantee. To get the best from your new Tricity Bendix cooker, we ask that you PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. [. . . ] For more details on the operation of the cooling fan see page 9. NOTE THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING GRILLING. If the grill door is accidentally closed during grilling a safety device incorporated in the cooker will cut out the grill. If the grill and top oven controls are selected at the same time, only the top oven will operate. The outer grill element may appear to glow slightly brighter than the inner element. This is quite normal. To correctly locate the grill pan on the shelf, ensure that the cut out on the underside of the handle bracket locates over the front bar of the shelf. THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To insert the handle, press the button on the handle with the thumb and pivot the handle slightly upwards inserting the lip into widest part of the bracket. Move the handle towards the left, lower into position and release the button. 18 To check the progress of the food being grilled, the grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to attend to food during cooking or the carrier shelf can be lifted away from the cooker and rested on a heat resistant work surface.

Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist during cooking. Adjust the height of the grilling grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different foods. Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats. l l The times quoted above are given as a guide and should be adjusted to suit personal taste. l l When toasting bread use the cranked shelf in position 2 with the grid in the high position. Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or toasting. bread, pastries, scones, soufflès etc. , best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. COOKING TEMPERATURES Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20° - 25°C for your own recipes. BATCH BAKING The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels, especially useful when batch baking. SELECTING THE FAN OVEN l Turn the main oven temperature control to the required setting. TO FIT THE MAIN OVEN SHELVES The shelves should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven. If not fitted correctly the anti-tilt and safety stop mechanism will be affected. The main oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will cycle ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained. The interior oven light will come ON when the main oven control is turned. Straight Rods Frame 22 HINTS AND TIPS l Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards. l When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time. It is recommended that when baking larger quantities, the shelf positions should be evenly spaced to suit the load being cooked.
