Lighting the cooker The system works by means of a battery. Details on how to replace the battery are given on page 29. Hotplate To light: 1 Push in the control knob and turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately.

S O N A T A 5 0 G X 6 For your safety When you are lighting any burner check that it has lit before you leave the cooker. When you are turning off a burner, do not leave the cooker until the flame has gone out.
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 trivet 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.
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.
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.
S O N A T A 5 0 G X 10 The hotplate 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.
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.
The ovens Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones Main Oven - 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.
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.
