3 1 We recommend when boiling or searing foods using the highest heat setting at first and then letting foods requiring a longer cooking time finish cooking on the desired heat setting. Overheated fats and oils can ignite quickly. If you are cooking foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips), remain nearby.

3 2 General Instructions • Insert the tray with the bevel at the front. • With Conventional you can also bake with two tins next to one another on the oven shelf at the same time. This does not significantly increase the baking time. When frozen foods are used the trays inserted may distort during cooking. This is due to the large difference in temperature between the freezing temperature and the temperature in the oven. Once the trays have cooled the distortion will disappear again.
