THE SLOW COOKING `S' SETTING The `S' setting on the main oven thermostat can be used for slow cooking. All dishes cooked by the `S' setting should be cooked for a minimum 6 hours. They will `hold' at this setting for a further hour but marked deterioration in appearance will be noticed in some cases. Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at 170° for 30 minutes before turning to the `S' setting and never be cooked lower than the middle shelf position. Joints of meat over 6 lbs (2. 7kg) and poultry over 4 lbs 8oz (2 kg) should not be cooked using the `S' setting. Always stand covered joints on a rack over the meat tin to allow good air circulation. A meat thermometer should be used when cooking pork joints and poultry. Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil before putting in the oven. Cover casseroles with foil and then the lid to prevent loss of moisture. meringues and milk puddings can be cooked lower in the oven whilst other dishes requiring greater heat can be cooked above them. Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking and should be included in day cooking sessions, when they can be observed from time to time. Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of ten minutes after soaking, before inclusion in any dish. 13 CARE AND CLEANING Switch off the electricity supply and allow to cool before cleaning the cooker. Clean the cooker regularly and wipe up spills soon after they occur to prevent them from becoming burnt on. Never use biological washing powder, caustic cleaners, harsh abrasives, scouring pads, steam cleaners, aerosol cleaners or oven chemical cleaners of any kind. Before moving your cooker ensure that it is cool and note that it is heavy (approximately 70 kg 155 lbs), so you may require assistance. To move the cooker forward, open the top oven/grill door and with both hands positioned under the roof of the compartment, lift and pull forward. OVEN HEAT CLEAN LININGS The oven side linings are coated with a special enamel which has a continuous cleaning action. In most cases this cleaning operation will proceed during normal cooking. However, if roasting is done frequently, or high temperatures are not used regularly, it may be necessary to run the oven empty at maximum setting for about two hours. It should not normally be necessary to clean the linings with water, but if desired, wipe them over with a soapy cloth, followed by a wipe with a damp clean cloth.
