Hello KATEGREGORY......
1.162kg equals about 2.6 lbs.....that's not a big roast, at 350 degrees it shouldn't take more that an hour or so to fully cook. You can test it with a meat thermometer......in the center it should be at least 165 degrees to be safe. If you don't have one another way to test is to poke it in the thickest part and then press on it gently/moderately with a large serving fork, if the juices run clear (no color) it's done. This method works well for any meat from burgers to Thanksgiving turkeys.

Hi Kate....
You're welcome. I've been a chef over 35 years and no one has ever gotten sick from anything I've made.
