WARNING – DO NOT USE THE MAIN OVEN WITHOUT

AN ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE COOKER

The oven has diff erent heat zones - the thermostat settings

refer to the temperature on the middle shelf; above this

shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler. Two shelves enable

full use of the temperatures inside the oven.

The grill pan without the handle can be used in the oven.

The maximum size of baking tray that should be used is

300mm x 330mm (12" x 13").

oven control knob fully anti-clockwise. Continue to press

COLD START COOKING

Anything requiring long slow cooking such as casseroles

and rich fruit cakes can be put into a cold oven. Satisfactory

results can also be obtained with creamed mixture,

rich pastries or yeast mixtures, but for perfection we

recommend preheating the oven for about 15 minutes.

ROASTING OF LARGE POULTRY

The maximum weight of poultry that can be

accommodated is 8kg (18 Ibs) of suitable shape. It is

important to check that the bird DOES NOT overhang the

burner at the back of the oven.

STORAGE AND RE-HEATING OF FOOD

It is vitally important to strictly adhere to the basic

principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the

possibility of bacterial growth.

1. If food is to be frozen or not served immediately, cool it

in a clean container as quickly as possible.

2. Completely thaw frozen food in the refrigerator before

reheating.

3. Re-heat food thoroughly and quickly either on the

hotplate or in a hot oven, Mk. 6, and then serve

immediately.

4. Only re-heat food once.

'COOK CHILL' DISHES

These should always be placed in a pre-heated oven ideally

on the fi rst or second shelf position. Follow the packet

instructions for cooking time.

ALUMINIUM FOIL

If using Aluminium Foil:

1. Remember that it is important to increase the cooking

Fahrenheit °F

time by one third.
