Baking
Oven function: Conventional
Baking tins
For Conventional dark metal and non-
stick tins are suitable.
Oven levels
Baking with Conventional is only possible
on one level.
1 baking tray:
e.g. oven level 3
1 cake tin:
e.g. oven level 1
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.
3 When frozen foods are used the trays in-
serted may distort during cooking. This
is due to the large difference in temper-
ature between the freezing temperature
and the temperature in the oven. Once
the trays have cooled the distortion will
disappear again.
How to use the Baking Tables
The tables give the required temperature set-
tings, baking times and oven shelf levels for
a selection of typical dishes.
• Temperatures and baking times are for
guidance only, as these will depend on
the consistency of the pastry, mixture or
dough and the number and the type of
baking tin.
• We recommend using the lower temper-
ature the first time and then if necessary,
for example, if a deeper browning is re-
quired, or baking time is too long, se-
lecting a higher temperature.
• If you cannot find the settings for a par-
ticular recipe, look for the one that is
most similar.
• Your new oven may bake or roast differ-
ently to your previous appliance. So
adapt your normal settings (tempera-
ture, cooking times) and oven shelf lev-
els to the recommendations in the
following tables.
2 With longer baking times, the oven can
be switched off about 10 minutes before
the end of baking time, to make use of
the residual heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the values given in
the tables assume that cooking is started
with the oven cold.
