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. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
- Always ensure that food is piping hot and
cooked thoroughly bifore serving.
- Only reheat food once.
