CONVENTIONAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. GRILLING SHOULD NEVER BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE GRILL/TOP OVEN DOOR CLOSED. The grill control is designed to provide variable heat control of either the twin grill elements on together or the single left hand grill element only, depending upon which direction the control knob is rotated.
MULTIFUNCTION COOKING Your new Creda cooker offers multifunction cooking with a conventional top oven (with top elements inside cavity and element below the oven cavity) and a Circulaire fan main oven. This gives you the benefits of multifunction cooking with the flexibility and added capacity of a double oven cooker.
TOP OVEN COOKERY NOTES TOP OVEN AS A WARMING COMPARTMENT FOR PLATES AND DISHES Larger joints of meat and poultry weighing more than 3.6kg (8lbs) should be roasted in the main oven. Do not use the main oven meat pan or the grill pan as a meat pan in the top oven as air circulation will be seriously restricted.
N.B. Recipes in cookery books give times and temperatures for cooking in ordinary ovens. The Creda fan oven makes it possible, in most cases, to:– a) reduce the recommended temperature by 25 o C (45 o F).
Page 29
MAIN OVEN COOKERY NOTES c) Place meat/poultry in the main oven meat pan supplied with your cooker. Small joints weighing less than 1.75kg (3 pan/tin – or they may be ‘pot roasted’ – a small joint in a large meat pan causes unnecessary oven splashing and evaporation of meat juices.

Note: If soft tub margarine is used for cake making, we would recommend using the all in one method and to reduce the temperature by 10 C. Temperatures recommended in this chart refer to cakes made with block margarine or butter only.
USING THE MAIN OVEN FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS "SLOW" 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.
In the unlikely event of the ceramic hob surface cracking, isolate the cooker by switching it off at the main switch, and contact the nearest service depot, see...
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build up of soiling which may detract from the appearance of the cooker. The recommended method of cleaning is to wipe over the trims with a soft cloth wrung out in hot water or mild non-abrasive cleaner.
CARE AND CLEANING GRILL/TOP OVEN Refer to the instructions on page 33 for cleaning the 'Credaclean' side panels. Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it is best to wash these items immediately after use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again. Wipe out the Grill/Top oven compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the rod shelf, grill deflector plate and the floor of the compartment.
