The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation. [. . . ] Best results are obtained when roasting is carried out at a low temperature. When a lower temperature is used, joint loses less weight, is more tender (too high a temperature causes meat to be tough and dry), and the splashing of fat on the oven interior is reduced. 12 Oven Cookery Notes Temperature and Time When a complete meal is being cooked in the oven, cooking time may need to be increased, and temperature may need to be raised for approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking period (for instance when cooking Yorkshire pudding to serve with roast beef). The times and temperature suggested should be used as a guide but may vary according to:-- 1. (a) A short thick joint requires a longer cooking period than a long thin joint. (b) A small joint under 1. 5kg (3lbs) takes longer per 450g (1lb) than a large one, whereas a large joint over 3kg (6lbs) will cook in the time given for `minutes per 450g (1lb)' without the `minutes' over added. (c) Boned/rolled and stuffed joints take longer to cook through than those with a bone. (The weight of stuffing should be added to the oven ready weight of meat/poultry to calculate roasting times). Never Use meat pans larger than 390 x 300mm (15" x 12") and baking trays no larger than 330 x 255mm (13" x 10"), these should be positioned centrally on the oven shelf. To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rod shelves which are not in use, should be removed from the oven.

Never use biological washing powder, harsh abrasives, scouring pads, aerosol cleaners or oven chemical cleaners of any kind. Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth. Do not use oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for cleaning the glass or plastic knobs as damage will occur. Lift out the hotplate bezels and wash in hot soapy or detergent water. Stubborn stains can be removed with a cream, paste or liquid cleaner, or by gently rubbing with liberally soaped, very fine steel wool pads. Check that the cleaning agent used is approved by the Vitreous Enamel Development Council.
