Cooking Tips
Defrosting
• Do not completely defrost foods within the oven. Partial cooking may occur.
• Always turn/move food during defrosting for more even results.
• Remove any formations of ice before defrosting foodstuffs.
• For fatty meat; defrost intermittently until defrosted.
Note: Thin parts of irregular shaped food may defrost quicker than other parts.
Cooking
• When determining cooking time, always start with a shorter time to avoid overcooking.
• If cooking eggs in the shell, pierce the shell beforehand to avoid the risk of the egg exploding.
• Always turn the food during cooking to achieve even cooking.
• Baked goods such as bread and pastries should only be heated until the crust is warm, as the inside
will heat considerably faster.
• Foodstuffs with a high sugar or fat content should only be cooked in high temperature resistant
containers.
• Always stir liquids before heating in the oven.
• Always follow any instructions supplied on foodstuff packaging.
Cleaning, Care & Maintenance
• Switch off and disconnect from the power supply before cleaning.
• Clean the interior of the appliance as often as possible with warm soapy water.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, these can leave harmful residues. Mild detergents are
acceptable.
• Clean the door seal with water only.
• Always wipe dry after cleaning.
• Do not allow the control panel to become wet.
• Clean the roller ring and oven floor regularly to avoid excessive noise during operation.
• Remove any odours in the oven interior by microwaving a cup of water with the juice of 1 lemon for
5 minutes. Dry with a soft cloth.
• A Caterlite agent or qualified technician must carry out repairs if required.
