AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Main Oven can be controlled by the automatic timer.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
2. To ensure food does not cool down and require reheating, set the end time so the food
is ready when you require it.
3. Always ensure that meat and poultry is defrosted before placing in the oven.
4. Whenever possible, keep food as cool as possible before placing in the oven, ideally
straight from a refrigerator.
5. If cooking food that requires frying before placing in the oven for auto cooking, keep
the delay start time to a minimum.
6. Never place hot or warm food in the oven for delay start cooking as it could cause the
oven to be warm and produce harmful bacteria in the food.
7. We advise that dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, e.g. Shepherd's ie,
should not be cooked automatically if there is to be a delay period.
8. Ensure that delay start times are kept to a minimum to prevent bacterial growth in
food.
9. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period so it is best
to add these ingredients just before serving.
10. 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.
11. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
12. 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.
13. Always ensure that food is piping hot and cooked thoroughly before serving.
14. Only reheat food once.
Note:Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the ovens
can be used.
NEVER operate the grill when the oven is set to cook automatically because the oven
cavity can become warm and this may cause bacterial growth in food.

Using The Hob
DEEP FAT FRYING SAFELY
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one third full of oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking period.
4. Never try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This lowers the fat
temperature too much resulting in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, then lower it slowly into the hot oil or
fat. Frozen foods in particular will cause the fat to froth and spit if added to quickly.
6. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free of streaks of oil or fat.
NEVER allow aluminium foil to be in contact with the hob surface when in use.
DO NOT allow young children near to the cooker when it is in use
as the surfaces get extremely hot!
SETTING THE HOTPLATE
Step 1 lace the saucepan centrally on the required hotplate.
Step 2 Turn the associated hotplate control (A, B, C or D) to the required setting.
Step 3 When you have finished, turn the hotplate control knob to the OFF position O.

In the unlikely event of a crack (no matter what size) appearing in the ceramic surface,
switch off the electricity supply to your appliance IMMEDIATELY and
contact your service centre.
DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED
When cooking food that contains sugar (most food) or syrup, use a utensil which is large
enough to prevent boil over or spillage. Sugar spillage will permanently damage the hob
and therefore should be cleaned off with care immediately. If sugar spillage has occurred,
remove it as long as it is still hot with a metal safety razor scraper.This will avoid any damage.
NEVER LET IT COOL BEFORE REMOVING.

GRILL CHART

Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly, and generally cooks food at a lower
temperature than a convection oven, pre-heating is often unnecessary. For guides on “pre-
heating”, “cooking temperatures” and “cooking times”, see “Oven Temperature Charts” in General
Information book.
POINTS TO REMEMBER ABOUT FAN OVENS
Fan ovens heat up quicker than convection ovens, so pre - heating is often unnecessary.
Cooking can be carried out at slightly lower temperatures.
Identical cooking results can be achieved no matter what shelf is used.
MAIN OVEN SHELF POSITIONING FOR FAN OVEN
Most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, due to even distribution of heat in the
main oven, but the shelves must be evenly spaced.The top oven rod shelf can be used in the
main oven when cooking large quantities of food. (N.B. Maximum 3 shelves in the main oven).
Food or utensils must never be placed directly on the floor of the oven for cooking.
MAIN OVEN UTENSILS
Do not use: Meat pans larger than 375mm x 300mm (15” x 12”)
Baking Trays larger than 325mm x 250mm (13” x10”)
TEMPERATURE & TIME
When all three shelves are in use to cook large quantities of food, it may be necessary to increase
the cooking times given in the temperature charts by a few minutes to allow for the loss of heat
due to extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays should have
an even gap around the oven.
Step 1 Check that the timer (G) is in manual.
lace the shelf in the correct position (see Main Oven Temperature Charts in General
Information book)
Step 2 Select the required cooking temperature using control (F) clockwise (see Main Oven
Temperature Charts in General Information book). The pilot light ( ●) will immediately
come on, and stay on until the oven reaches the required temperature..The light will
then automatically go off and on during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the
correct temperature.
Step 3 When the oven has reached the required temperature,place the food on the shelf
(positioned as shown in the Main Oven Temperature Charts in General Information
book) and close the oven door.
Step 4 When you have finished, turn the control knob to the OFF position (O).
When you open the oven door during cooking a momentary puff of steam may appear,
this is NOT a fault. It is perfectly normal and is the sign of a good door seal.
Using The Main Oven
15
NOTE: Charts are a guide only, to suit personal taste and requirements, it may be necessary
to increase or decrease temperatures by 1 ˚C. It may also be necessary
to increase or decrease cooking times.
DO NOT allow young children near to the appliance when the oven is in use
as the surfaces get extremely hot.

SETTING THE MAIN OVEN

Using The Main Oven For Other Functions
16
“SLOW” SETTING
This is used for slow cooking,keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods. Extra care
must be taken when warming bone china. Do not place food or plates on the floor of the oven.
Some advantages of slow cooking are:
The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.
Inexpensive cuts of meat are tenderised.
Fully loading the oven can be very economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2hrs. for late-comers.
The kitchen stays cooler.
OPERATION:
1) lace the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.
2) Select Slow Cooking temperature by turning main oven temperature control (F)
clockwise ensuring the oven door is fully closed.
STORAGE AND RE-HEATING OF FOOD
1) If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it in a clean container as quickly as
possible.
2) Thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.
3) Re-heat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.
4) Only re-heat food once.
POINTS TO BEAR IN MIND WHEN PREPARING FOOD:
1) Make sure all dishes will fit into the oven before preparing the food.
2) All dishes cooked by the ‘Slow’ setting should be cooked for a minimum of 6 hours. They
will 'hold' at this setting for a further hour but marked deterioration in appearance will be
noticed in some cases.
3)
Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at fan oven 170oC for 30 mins before turning to
the Slow setting.
4) Meat over 2.7 Kg. (6 lbs) and poultry over 2 Kg. (4 lbs 8oz) are unsuitable for the Slow setting.
5) Always stand covered joints on a rack over the meat tin, to allow good air circulation.
6) ork joints can only be cooked, if by testing with a meat thermometer and internal
temperature of at least 88oC is reached.
7) This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and poultry.
8) Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil before putting in the oven.
9) When casseroles are used, cover the food first with foil and then the lid to prevent loss of
moisture.
10) Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.
11) Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small even sized pieces.
12) Always adjust the seasoning and thickenings at the end of the cooking time.
13) Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and should be observed from time to time.
14) Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of ten minutes after soaking,
before inclusion in any dish.
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the
oven lining and the plates which are being warmed
