Cooking using the timer

The timer can be used to turn just one oven
or both on and off automatically. The start and
stop time must be the same for both ovens but
different cooking temperatures can be set.
If you want to turn one of the ovens on
at the same time as the timer is set for
automatic cooking, you must wait until
the timer has turned on the oven/ ovens
fi rst. Then you can adjust either of them
manually in the normal way.
You can set the oven to turn on any time over
the following 24 hour period
If you want to cook more than one dish,
choose dishes that require approximately
the same time. However, dishes can be
'slowed down' slightly by using small
containers and covering them with
aluminium foil, or 'speeded up' slightly by
cooking smaller quantities or placing in
larger containers.
Very perishable foods such as pork or fi sh
should be avoided if a long delay period is
planned, especially in hot weather.
Don't place warm food in the oven.
Don't use an oven already warm.
Don't use if an adjoining oven is warm.
Avoid using wine or beer if there is a delay
period, as fermentation may take place.
To avoid curdling, cream should be added to
dishes just before serving.
Fresh vegetables, which may discolour during a
delay period, should be coated in melted fat or
immersed in a water and lemon juice solution.
Many frozen foods are ideal for delayed
cooking and can be placed in the oven while
still frozen.
Fruit pies, custard tarts or similar wet mixtures
on top of uncooked pastry are only satisfactory if
there is a short delay period. Dishes containing
leftover cooked meat or poultry should not be
cooked automatically if there is a delay period.
Whole poultry must be thoroughly defrosted
before placing in the oven.
Check that meat and poultry are fully
cooked before serving.
