Tips for cooking vegetables
• If the vegetable dish runs out of juice and
gets too dry, cook it in a pan with a lid
instead of a tray. Closed vessels will
preserve the juice of the dish.
• If the vegetables in a vegetable dish do
not cook properly, boil the vegetables
beforehand or prepare them like canned
food and put in the oven.
Ringer timer
The ringer timer may be used for timing a
cooking period of up to 60 minutes.
First wind the timer by turning the knob fully
clockwise. Return the knob to the desired
time period. At the end of the this period the
bell will ring. Note: If the timer is not first fully
wound the bell may not ring.
Selector switch
Note:
The oven thermostat is marked to 70°C.
When set to this position, the oven may be
used as a warmer. All ovens extract
moisture from the food being cooked,
especially so during the winter months. This
is normal and not detrimental to the food or
the oven.
Baking Guide:
Where possible, bake on the middle shelf
position of the oven. The food must be
placed in the centre of the wire shelf towards
the oven door. Do not open the oven door
until at least two thirds of the baking time
has lapsed. The roast pan must not be used
for baking purposes.
Grilling
Both the wire shelf and roast pan may be
used for grilling. The roast pan may also be
used as a drip tray under the wire shelf.
Position the shelf in the desired position
below the grill element.
Set the selector switch and oven thermostat
to their respective Grill positions. The
thermostat indicator light will glow. Preheat
the grill element for about 5 minutes.
Partially withdraw the shelf and place the
food in the centre of the shelf. Slide the shelf
back into position. Monitor the grilling to
avoid burning the food. After grilling is
completed, the oven thermostat and the
selector switch must be returned to the "0"
position in an anti-clockwise direction.
Direction of Ringer Timer
The Ringer Timer Control Knob
must be operated in a Clockwise
Direction Only. Do NOT engage
Ringer Timer Control Knob in Anti-
Clockwise Direction.
