Oven Timer Operation

The oven ti er offers you the following features:
1. Ti e of Day
2. Auto atic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
The Main Oven (only) can be controlled by the auto atic ti er.
Never operate the grill or top oven when the ain oven is set to cook
auto atically because the oven cavity can beco e war and this ay
cause bacterial growth in food.
1. Select foods which will take the sa e ti e to cook and require
approxi ately the sa e te perature.
2. Set the oven ti er so that the food has just finished or about
to finish cooking on your return to the oven. This will ensure the
food has not cooled down and does not require reheating
before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven,
ideally straight fro the refrigerator. Frozen eat and poultry
should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. We advise that war food should never be placed in the oven if
there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the eat
and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or eat,
for exa ple Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked auto atically
if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow ethod, so
that the delay period is kept to a ini u .
7. On war days, to prevent har ful bacterial growth in certain
foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start should be kept to
a ini u .
8. Wine or beer ay fer ent and crea ay curdle during the
delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients just before
serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or
tossing in water to which le on juice has been added, prior to
placing food in the oven.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent
boiling over.
11. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to
prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Alu iniu foil gives a
good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
1. Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.
2. Check that the electricity supply to the oven is turned On.
3. Check that the oven clock is at the right ti e of day.
