POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN PREPARING FOOD FOR SLOW COOKING 1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into the oven ensuring enough room for air to circulate. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a minimum of 6 hours, however, it they are cooked for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their appearance may be noticed. Never cook joints of meat over 2. 7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2. 0kg (4lb 8oz). We do not recommend that joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking on the slow setting. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or poultry at 170oC for 30 minutes before wrapping in foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air circulation) before turning the control to the slow setting and cooking immediately. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are thoroughly cooked by checking with a meat thermometer before serving. [. . . ] Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate which is located on the oven front frame (lower).
