[. . . ] If an automatic programme is set, the internal oven light will come on when the cook time starts. The oven indicator neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go OUT. It will then cycle ON and OFF showing that the oven temperature is being maintained. The cooling fan for the controls will operate after a short time. It runs on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. See page 15 for further details on the cooling fan. l It is best to cover dishes where practical for part of the cooking time to prevent over browning. Covering the food will also reduce fat splashing onto the oven interior and help to keep the oven clean. Uncover food for the last 15-30 minutes of cooking time to allow the food to brown. 25 l Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelves and that there is sufficient room around the dishes to allow for maximum air circulation. l The use of enamelware or dark, heavy or nonstick utensils will help to increase base browning for dishes such as Yorkshire Pudding, Plate Pies etc. For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes out, then switch to the zoned oven following the times, temperatures and shelf positions recommended. l 26 OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements. Note: Shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven.

Be prepared to adjust temperatures and shelf positions during cooking if necessary. 29 THERMAL GRILLING CHART FOOD SHELF TEMP (°C) 200 190 160 170 170 170 170 170 170 180 180 190 220 220 TIME (mins in total 8-12 10-15 35-45 20-25 25-35 10-20 10-20 10-15 20-30 10-15 20-30 10-15 8-10 each side 10-12 each side 20-30 depends on size Bacon Rashers Beefburgers Chicken Joints Chops - Lamb - Pork Fish - Whole Trout - Mackerel Fillets - Plaice/Cod Kebabs Kidneys - Lamb/Pig Liver - Lamb/Pig Sausages Steaks - Medium Steaks - Well Done 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 Heating through and Browning e. g. au-gratin, lasagne, shepherd's pie 3 170 NOTE: Shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven. Only use straight shelves when thermal grilling in the main oven. The times quoted above are given as a guide and should be adjusted to suit personal taste. 30 DEFROST FEATURE USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This main oven function enables you to defrost most foods faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e. g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones etc. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc. , can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours. A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as soon as possible during the thawing process. Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be thawed using the defrost function. ALL JOINTS OF MEAT AND POULTRY MUST BE THAWED THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING. It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly in the fridge. [. . . ] The telephone number and address for service is detailed on the list headed 'Customer Service Centres'.
