AUTOMATIC COOKING

GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING

1.	Select foods which will take the same time to cook.
2.	Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished
	or is just 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 from the refrigerator.
	Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed
	thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4.	Warm food should never be placed in the oven if
	there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by
	frying the meat and vegetables should be cooked
	as soon as possible.
5.	Dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat,
	for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked
	automatically if there is to be a delay period.
6.	Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow
	method, so that the delay period is kept to a
	minimum.
7.	On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth
	in certain foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed

SYMBOLS

A 'bell' symbol will light up when you select a Minute Minder Period and will remain lit for the period set.

At the end of the Minute Minder Period, the timer will emit an audible tone and the 'bell' symbol will disappear.

The 'cookpot' symbol will light up either:-

-When the timer is in manual mode, or

-During the actual Cook Period.

'AUTO' will light up:-

-When the timer is first turned on it will flash. It will go out when a time of day is set or when the timer is set to manual.

	start should be kept to a minimum.
8.	Wine or beer may ferment and cream may 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 lemon
	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. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.

12.Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.

The 'AUTO' symbol will flash at the end of an Auto Cooking programme to indicate that the programme has finished.

(When the 'AUTO' symbol is flashing, to return the oven to Manual operation, turn the oven controls off, ensure that the correct time of day is set, and press the "Manual" button - The 'AUTO' symbol will go out).
