Automatic Cooking The Main Oven (only) can be controlled by the automatic timer. Never operate the grill or top oven when the main oven is set to cook automatically because the oven cavity can become warm and this may cause bacterial growth in food.

Hints on	1.	Select foods which will take the same time to cook and require
Automatic		approximately the same temperature.
Cooking	2.	Set the oven timer 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 from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry
		should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
	4.	We advise that 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.	We advise 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 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.
Timer	1.	Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.
Operation	2.	Check that the electricity supply to the oven is turned On.
	3.	Check that the oven clock is at the right time of day.
