[. . . ] INSTALLATION The appliance must be installed according to the instructions supplied. The installation work must be undertaken by a competent person as stated in the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) regulations current edition. The installer should check that the appliance is suitable for the gas supply by checking the rating plate. The appliance must be installed in an adequately ventilated room. [. . . ] Alternatively remove the top tray when the food is cooked and move the lower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking. It is recommended that when baking larger quantities, the shelf positions should be evenly spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight increase in cooking time may be necessary. The material and finish of the baking tray and dishes will affect the degree of base browning of the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning. Shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning. 21 For economy leave the door open for the shortest possible time, particularly when placing food into a pre-heated oven. ROASTING For best results we recommend open roasting using minimal fat or oil to prevent splashing. It is not necessary to cover meat or poultry or wrap food in foil when roasting as this restricts the circulation of heat and will lead to extended cooktimes. If you are using a roasting bag or cover chicken breast with foil, be prepared to allow an extra 10 - 15 minutes for each 1/2kg (1lb). When cooking large items such as turkeys, the use of foil may be required to prevent the breast becoming dry before the rest of the bird is fully cooked. 22 MAIN OVEN COOKING CHART The Gas mark settings are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the settings to suit individual preferences and requirements. Note: Shelf positions are counted from the top of the oven downwards.

A variety of foods, particularly cheaper cuts of meat can be cooked in this way making them tender, tasty and succulent. Thaw frozen foods thoroughly before cooking. MAIN OVEN 24 MEAT, FISH AND POULTRY Prime cuts of meat for roasting are better not slow cooked as flavours are retained to their fullest when roasting. Do not Slowcook joints of meat over 6lb (2. 7kg) in weight. Only Slowcook joints of pork if you can make sure by using a meat thermometer that the temperature inside the joint is at least 88°C. Do not Slowcook poultry over 4lb 8oz (2kg) in weight. Do not Slowcook more than one 2lb (1kg) meat stew in the oven at the same time when slow cooking. Thicken after cooking with a little cornflour and water if desired. All frozen meat/poultry should be thoroughly thawed before preparing for slow cooking. chops Small joints, stews Large joints Fish 3 - 4 hours 6 - 8 hours 7 - 9 hours 2 - 3 hours VEGETABLES Cut vegetables into thin slices or small cubes as they can take a long time to cook. To prevent potatoes discolouring, cook immediately after preparation and add a few drops of lemon juice. When cooking vegetables in a casserole, place them under the meat to keep them immersed in the gravy/sauce. MILK AND MILK PRODUCTS Cream may curdle and separate during a long cook time.
