Main Oven Control
This control switches on the main oven. To select Fan Cooking - Turn the control
clockwise and select any temperature between 80°C and 220°C. As the control is
turned the fan will start, the oven interior light and the main oven thermostat light will
come on and the heating element around the fan will start heating.
The oven interior light will remain on throughout cooking. The main oven thermostat light
will come on until the oven reaches the required temperature. It will then cycle off and
on as the oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
Notes
1. Never operate both the top oven control and the grill control together. The grill will
not operate unless the top oven control is in the '0' off position.
2. If the main oven does not switch on when the control is turned, check that the Timer
is in manual operation.
Slow Setting 'S'
The main oven has an Economy setting to select. Turn the main oven control to the
Slow Setting 'S'.
NOTE: Slow Cooking can be cooked automatically (see Timer instructions).
OVEN TIMER OPERATION
Note: Timer must be set to 'Time of Day' and 'Manual' before the oven can be used.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Main Oven can be controlled by the Automatic Timer.
HINTS ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will require the same cooking time and temperature.
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 automatic cooking, keep the
delay 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.
