ROASTING GUIDE
- Frozen meat should be thoroughly thawed before cooking. For large joints it is
advisable to thaw overnight.
- Frozen poultry should be thoroughly thawed before cooking, the time required
depends on the size of the bird e.g. a large turkey may take up to 48 hours to thaw.
- Adjust the shelf position so the meat or poultry will be in the centre of the oven.
The TIMES given in the ROASTING GUIDE are only approximate because the size
and age of the bird will influence cooking times as will the shape of a joint and the
proportion of bone.
Notes:
If you are cooking a very large turkey e.g. over 141lb., we recommend that it is
turned around halfway through cooking, so that both legs will be cooked evenly.
Remove any excess fat from the tin before turning, to prevent any fat splashing.
When cooking stuffed meat or poultry calculate the cooking time from the total weight
of the meat plus the stuffing.
For joints cooked in foil or covered roasters, and for lidded casseroles, add 5 minutes
per 450g. (1lb. to the calculated cooking time.
Smaller joints weighing less than 1.25 k.g. (2 lb.) may require 5 minutes per 450g.
(1lb) extra cooking time.

To defrost frozen foods, turn the oven control to the defrost position,
place the food in the centre of the oven and close the door.
Be safe
X DO NOT defrost stuffed poultry using this method.
X DO NOT defrost larger joints of meat and poultry over 2kg.(4lb) using this method.
XNEVER place uncooked food for defrosting next to cooked food which is to be
cooled, as this can lead to cross contamination.
Defrosting meat, poultry, and fish can be accelerated using this method but make
sur they are completely thawed before cooking thoroughly. Place meat and poultry
on a trivet in a meat tin.
Defrosting times
Small or thin pieces of frozen fish or meat e.g. fish fillets, prawns, and mince will
take approximately 1-2 hours. Placing the food in a single layer will reduce the
thawing time.
A medium sized casserole or stew will take approximately 3-4 hours.
A 1 1/2 kg (3lb) oven ready chicken will take approximately 5 hours, remove the
giblets as soon as possible.

General instructions
CAUTION: the oven door becomes hot during use. Be sure to keep children well
away!
Do not use the oven as a room heater.
Always be very careful when connecting other electrical appliances to the power
supply if these are situated near the oven: the power cables must not come into
contact with hot parts of the oven.
To ensure the oven will always be safe, any servicing
— especially of electrical parts — should be entrusted exclusively to a skilled
professional.
Clean the oven every time after use: this will make it easier to remove dirt and
grease and ensure that deposits do not build up.
Use earthenware oven dishes enamelled steel or pyrex - type glass for roasting
and baking, selecting a suitable size for the bulk and quantity of the food being
cooked.
Stainless steel ovenware is not recommended, as the metal reflects heat.
If the interior light should fail, disconnect the oven from the electrical power before
removing and replacing the lamp.
Using first time
Before using the oven for the first time, clean the interior thoroughly with liquid
detergent and lukewarm water. Wipe off, then heat the oven to maximum temperature
and leave on for 20 minutes. This will ensure that residual oil and grease used in
the manufacturing process do not give off unpleasant smells when food is cooked
in the oven.
Once this has been done, the oven is ready for use.
CAUTION: make certain the oven is disconnected from the electrical power supply
before carrying out any cleaning operation on the oven.
Final checks
Having installed the oven in its enclosure, and before switching on, be certain to
check that there are no live parts accessible, and that all the packing has been
removed.
At this point the oven can be switched on as described in the instructions.
