12.5oz to 13oz.
• Ready Meals AC-1 & AC-2 should be rounded up to the nearest 0.05kg (for example 0.34kg to 0.35kg).
• You are restricted to enter a weight within the range given (see the chart on page 14).
• To cook weights below or above that range or foods not included in the chart on page 14, refer to the
charts in the cookbook section.
NOTES:
• If the DOWN (▼) weight key is pressed the display will count down from the highest weight range each
time the key is pressed.
If the UP (▲) weight key is pressed the display will count up from the lowest weight range each time the
key is pressed.
You can enter the weight by holding down the WEIGHT keys as well as by pressing until the desired

• When action is required (example, to turn food over), the oven stops and the audible signals sound, the
remaining cooking time and an indicator will flash on the display. To continue cooking, press the
START/AUTO MINUTE key.
• The final temperature will vary according to the initial food temperature. Check food is piping hot after
cooking. If necessary, you can extend the cooking manually.
• You can enter the weight in Lb/oz or Kg/g. To convert to either weight range press the WEIGHT
CONVERSION key once before entering the weight. See page 19.
• The menu for crispy crumb foods (AC-3) uses Microwave with Grill during the cooking programme to
provide a brown, crisp traditional looking and tasting result.
• If you use the AUTO MINUTE function during Auto cooking, the food may be overcooked.
