  • Page 7 L Y R I C 5 0 G d Preheating You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or when browning food. Putting food on the trivet Place food such as toast, teacakes and muffins towards the centre of the trivet.

    L Y R I C 5 0 G d The hotplate Heat control The hotplate control knobs turn to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. You can adjust the heat by turning the control between the highest and lowest settings. These are shown as a large and a small flame symbol.
  • Page 9 L Y R I C 5 0 G d 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.

  • Page 10: Helpful Hints

    L Y R I C 5 0 G d Helpful hints Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. Cover pans with a lid whenever possible.

  • Page 11: The Oven

    L Y R I C 5 0 G d The oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen.
  • Page 12 L Y R I C 5 0 G d Baking trays and dishes For your safety Never place cooking dishes, trays and so on over the oven burner. This will damage the cooker as well as the ovenware and possibly the floor covering underneath the cooker.
  • Page 13 L Y R I C 5 0 G d Roasting For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to prevent splashing. It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended cooktimes.
