Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the top oven is
used, young children should be
kept away.
The main oven is a multi-function oven,
and may be used as a conventional
oven or a fanned oven. It may also be
used as a grill, or with one of the other
oven functions.

The programmer must be set to manual
operation before the main oven or grill
functions can be used. If

on the programmer display, return the
oven to manual operation by pressing
the cook time and ready time
buttons simultaneously. Any programme
which has been set is cancelled.

Important:
Food is more susceptible to the growth
of food poisoning organisms in warm
conditions. If the weather is hot, either
take care to ensure that food is not left
standing in a warm oven, or avoid
using the automatic cooking facility.
Hints for automatic cooking
•
Food is placed in a cold oven so
you will need to add about 10 - 15
minutes onto the cooking time to
allow for the oven to reach the
selected temperature.
•
Wine or beer may ferment, and
cream may curdle during the delay
period, so it is best to add these
ingredients just before serving.
•
Potatoes should be parboiled or
brushed with oil to prevent
discolouration during the delay
period.
•
Meat can be brushed with oil to
prevent it drying.
•
Lemon juice can be added to
certain fruits and vegetables such
as apples, pears, turnips and
parsnips to prevent discolouration
during the delay period.
