Automatic cooking
These notes below are to help you with

Please make sure that you read them
carefully before you start using the
automatic functions.
Do
• Familiarise yourself with the use of
the programmer.
• Select foods which are as fresh as
possible, and as cold as possible -
ie; preferably straight from the
refrigerator.
• Choose foods which are suitable
for cooking from a cold start, as
some dishes will be affected by
being left uncooked, at room tem-
perature, perhaps for several
hours, especially when the weath-
er is hot.
• Make sure that meat, poultry and
uncooked food are thoroughly
thawed before placing them in the
oven.
• Cover dishes with lids or foil, as
they may be left standing in the
oven for some time before cook-

oven for delayed cooking - eg;
stews prepared by frying meat first
must be thoroughly cooled before
placing in the oven.
•
Do not cook dishes containing left
over cooked meat or poultry, or
pastry dishes with wet fillings,
as they are not suitable for auto-
matic cooking.
•
Do not put food items intended for
delayed cooking into a warm oven
- allow the oven to cool before set-
ting for delayed cooking.
•
Do not over-fill dishes containing
liquids, as they might boil over.
•
Never leave food in the oven to
cool slowly after cooking, serve
immediately or refrigerate.
