Push in the control knob and turn it to the the large flame symbol (highest setting), and press the ignition button immediately. When the burner has lit release the button. FRONT LEFT Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread. For your safety If you close the lid of the cooker while any of the hotplate burners are lit the gas will go out. This is because it would be dangerous if the burners stayed on when the lid was closed. Always use the control to turn off a burner. Do not use the lid cut-off device. This will only cut off the gas when the lid is closed. The gas will flow again when the lid is opened. Please note: If you have any trouble lighting a hotplate burner turn all the hotplate control knobs off and make sure the hotplate burner parts have been replaced correctly. See page 31 for more information. 4 ZCM 5600 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.

To use the oven 1 Turn the oven control knob to the required setting. The oven light will come on when you turn the control knob. The light will go out when you turn the oven control off. If you need to replace the oven light bulb follow the instructions given on page 39. FAN OVEN To turn off the oven 1 Turn the oven control knob to the off position. This is shown by a large . FAN OVEN 6 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. For your safety You must keep the grill door open when the grill burner is lit. Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is used. Young children should be kept away. Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill fires. Heat control The grill control has two heat settings. The control knob turns to the left from 'OFF' to 'HIGH' and then to 'LOW'. Use the high setting for fast cooking such as toast. Use the low setting to cook thicker food such as chicken after you have browned it on the high setting. GRILL Cooking positions Most food should be cooked on the grid in the grill pan. You can turn the grid over to suit different thicknesses of food. You can place some dishes straight on the grill shelf. This is useful when you are browning the top of food such as cauliflower cheese. 7 The grill ZCM 5600 The grill ZCM 5600 General Plate warming You can use the grill compartment to warm plates when you are using the oven. 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 browning food. Positioning food on the grid Place food such as toast, tea-cakes and muffins towards the centre of the grid. If you put food outside this area it may require rotating during cooking. Place food which needs a more gentle heat, such as tomatoes and mushrooms towards the edge of the grid. Arrange meat products and fish to suit their thickness and how you like them cooked. To prevent excess fat splashing when you use the grill place the trivet in the grill pan below the grill grid. Grill shelf You should use the shelf without the metal plate when grilling. For safety the shelf will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely, pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift it out. To put the shelf into a different position, keep the front edge raised, slot the shelf onto the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in. 8 The grill pan and handle The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle. To attach the handle, place the wirework under the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan. Slide the handle to the left and over the central bump on the grill pan. Ensure the handle is correctly located. It is not necessary to remove the grill pan handle during grilling. Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill. To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill pan. If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered from your local Zanussi Service Force Centre by quoting part number 311479800. 9 The grill ZCM 5600 The hotplate ZCM 5600 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 31for more information. 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. FRONT LEFT Burner sizes The hotplate has three burner sizes to suit different types of cooking: Largest burner - use a large pan for food such as chips. Medium burners - use for everyday cooking. Small burner - use for simmering food such as soups and stews. The largest pan which you should use on any burner is 230mm (9"). The base of the smallest pan should not measure less than 100mm (4"). 10 For your safety 1 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 cannot be accidentally knocked. Take extra care when you are deep fat frying. Do not cover the pan with a lid. FRONT-LEFT 2 3 4 5 6 Do not leave a pan unattended. If the pan catches fire, leave it where it is and turn off all controls. Place a damp cloth or a fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames. Never put water on the fire. % Leave the pan to cool for 30 minutes. If you are using a Wok we recommend it has a flat base as it will stand stable on the pan supports. If you use a round based Wok with a collar support, the collar must be of the open wire work type. A closed collar will affect the performance of the burner. Before you use the Wok make sure that the collar is stable on the pan supports. Always follow the instructions that come with the Wok. Do not use the lid as a work surface or chopping board. this could damage the glass and reduce its strength. 7 8 11 The hotplate ZCM 5600 The hotplate ZCM 5600 Helpful hints 1 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. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen. Try cooking more than one vegetable in the same pan, for example potatoes and carrots. Cut vegetables into smaller pieces. This way they will cook more quickly. A pressure cooker will save time and energy. 2 3 4 5 6 12 The fan oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. The fan circulates hot air in the oven to give an even temperature throughout the oven. You can make use of the even temperature when you want to cook a large quantity of similar foods at the same time. For example, if you are cooking more than one tray of cakes or biscuits there is no need to swap the trays around during cooking. Preheating You do not need to preheat the oven when casseroling and so on. If you do not preheat the oven you may need to add an extra five or ten minutes on the recommended cooking times. Preheat the oven for baking or when you are cooking sensitive food such as Yorkshire puddings, pastries, scones, soufflés and yeast mixtures. When you are cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the instructions on the packing. When you need to preheat the oven, we recommend you do so for 10 minutes. Cooking temperatures Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking. You should pay particular attention to cooking times and temperature settings as these may differ from your previous cooker. Follow the temperatures recommended in the cooking charts on pages 17 - 23. As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20° - 25°C for your own conventional oven recipes. If you do not follow the recommended temperatures uneven browning may result. 13 The ovens ZCM 5600 The ovens ZCM 5600 Batch baking The fan oven cooks evenly on all shelf levels. This is especially useful when you want to batch bake on three shelves. Make sure the shelves are evenly spaced to get the best results. Oven shelves You can slot the oven shelves in any of five positions. When you are using more than one shelf, make sure the shelves are evenly spaced. For safety the shelf will only pull out so far. If you want to remove a shelf completely pull it forward as far as it will go, raise the front edge and lift it out. To put the shelf into a different position keep the front edge raised, slot the shelf on to the runner, lower the front edge and slide the shelf in.
