Oven Timer Operation

Note: Timer must be set to ‘Time of Day’ and ‘Manual’ before the ovens can be used.

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 require the same cooking time and
Automatic		temperature.
Cooking	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, take food out of the refrigerator and keep it as
		cool as possible.
	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 Pie, 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.
