Poultry: preparation tips and
information
Automatic programmes
Poultry weighing less than 900 g is not
suitable for cooking using an Automatic
programme as it is likely to dry out.
Rub poultry with oil and season to taste
before putting it in the oven.
Always place poultry in the oven with
the breast uppermost. Some
programmes require the addition of
extra liquid part way through the
cooking time, and sometimes the lid
needs to be removed. This will be
indicated in the display.

Using the food probe (if available)
With poultry, insert the food probe into
the thickest part of the breast. Make
sure that the metal tip is inserted as
deeply as possible into the thickest part
of the bird, and that the handle is
angled upwards as far as possible.
If you are cooking several birds
together, select ones that are similar in
size. Insert the food probe into the
largest bird.
When using the food probe you will be
given an estimated cooking duration.
This will fluctuate during the course of
cooking.
