ELECTRONIC CLOCK & AUTOMATIC
COOKING FEATURE
When you first switch on the appliance you will be prompted to set the ‚Time of Day’ on the display. You must
ensure you have done this before attempting to use the automatic cooking feature.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
- Select food which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
- To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the food is ready when you
require it.
- Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.
- Whenever possible, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as cool as possible.
- If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for automatic cooking, keep the delay time to a
minimum.
- Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delayed start cooking as it could cause the oven to be warm and
produce harmful bacteria in the food.
- We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry and meat, eg. shepherds pie, should not be cooked
automatically if there is to be a delay period.
- Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in food.
- Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients
just before serving.
- Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been
added, prior to placing food in the oven.
- Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
- Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Alumi-
nium foil gives a good seal.
- Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly bifore serving.
- Only reheat food once.
