6. THINGS TO NOTE

In the event of an interruption of the electricity
supply, the timer will reset itself to zero, and all
programming will be cancelled.

7. AUTOMATIC COOKING

It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.  Always ensure commercially prepared
food is well within its use by date and that home
prepared food is fresh and of good quality.

When cooking is complete,

 do not 

 leave food to

stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.

Always ensure food in the oven has been
covered before cooking if it is not possible to
remove food immediately after cooking.
