Page 26
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.

PASTA AND RICE Cook pasta on the hob and add to the dish at the end of the cook time. Rice should be the 'easy cook' type. Use 250ml (½ pint) stock to 100g (4oz) rice. Cooking time up to 6 hours. DRIED BEANS AND FRUIT Soak overnight prior to cooking.
CARE AND CLEANING For hygiene and safety reasons this gas cooker must be kept clean. A build up of fat or other foodstuffs could cause a fire. Before cleaning the cooker always allow the cooling fan for the controls to cool the cooker down before switching off the electricity supply.
CLEANING THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS PANELS To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following: Household detergents and bleaches Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads Chemical oven pads or aerosols Rust removers Bath/Sink stain removers outer...

CLEANING THE GRILL / TOP OVEN COMPARTMENT The grill / top oven compartment base, sides and back panel can be cleaned using oven cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards.
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES The main oven top and sides are coated with a Stayclean finish. They should not be cleaned manually. During normal use the Stayclean coating will become splashed with fats and food residues. When the Oven Cleaning Cycle is selected, the Stayclean surfaces burn off any soilage.
COOKING TO REDUCE SOILAGE Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher temperatures during roasting will increase soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender. Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before cooking.
REPLACING AN OVEN LIGHT BULB Isolate cooker from electricity supply before replacing the bulb. The type of bulb required is a 300°C, 25 watt small Edison Screw. 1. Make sure the cooker is cool before you replace a bulb. 2. Open the oven door and remove the shelves and wirework runners.
