Preparing your Cook-Pan for use
For packing purposes the vented
knob is fitted inside the lid. To
refit, unscrew the screw, reverse
the knob and flange to the
outside of the cover and refit the
washer and screw as shown in
Fig. 1.
Ensure that your Cook-Pan is
disconnected from the electricity
supply. Wash the pan and lid in
Fig. 1
hot soapy water and dry
thoroughly. Your Kenwood Cook-
Pan is fully immersible.
Before using for the first time
wipe the inside of the base with a
paper kitchen towel smeared with
cooking oil. The Cook-Pan is now
ready
for
use
and
it
is
unnecessary to condition it again.
The outside of the pan is also
non-stick coated but this surface
need not be conditioned.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE
TEMPERATURE CONTROL IN
WATER
Using your Cook-Pan
1. Turn the Temperature Control knob to its minimum position.
2. Push the Temperature Control firmly into its socket located under
one of the handles and plug the appliance into the power supply.
3. Select the temperature setting required by aligning the number on
the Temperature Control knob with the lens of the thermostat
indicator light. The temperature Indicator Light will glow and as soon
as the temperature has been reached the light will go out. At this
stage food can be added to the Cook-Pan. During cooking the light
will cycle on and off indicating the temperature is being maintained.
To establish the simmering position on the Temperature Control, set the
knob to 5 and wait until the liquid boils. Turn the knob back until the light
goes out. This is the simmer setting.
To open the vent, turn the fin on the vented knob in an anti-clockwise
direction. The vent is usually closed during moist cooking, i.e. steaming,
stewing, braising and open for dry cooking, i.e. roasting, baking.
To dry fry, use the tilt leg on the pan to raise one end of the cook pan.
The fat and juices from the food will run to the lower side allowing you
to cook "fat free" in the higher side.
When checking or removing food from the pan, the lid can be positioned
at an angle by resting the tilt handle on the lid into the handle of the
cook-pan.
