11.2 Baking
• Your oven can bake or roast differently
to the appliance you had before. Adapt
your usual settings (temperature,
cooking times) and shelf positions to
the values in the tables.
• The manufacturer recommends that
you use the lower temperature the first
time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a
special recipe, look for the one that is
almost the same.
• You can extend baking times by 10 –
15 minutes if you bake cakes on more
than one shelf position.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights
do not always brown equally at first. If
this occurs, do not change the
temperature setting. The differences
equalize during the baking procedure.
• With longer baking times, you can
deactivate the oven approximately 10
minutes before the end of the baking
time and then use the residual heat.
When you cook frozen food, the trays in
the oven can twist during baking. When
the trays become cold again, the
distortions are gone.
11.3 Baking cakes
• Do not open the oven door before 3/4
of the set cooking time is up.
• If you use two baking trays at the same
time, keep one empty level between
them.
11.4 Cooking meat and fish
• Use a deep pan for very fatty food to
prevent the oven from stains that can
be permanent.
• Leave the meat for approximately 15
minutes before carving so that the juice
does not seep out.
• To prevent too much smoke in the
oven during roasting, add some water
into the deep pan. To prevent the
smoke condensation, add water each
time after it dries up.
11.5 Cooking times
Cooking times depend on the type of
food, its consistency, and volume.
Initially, monitor the performance when
you cook. Find the best settings (heat
setting, cooking time, etc.) for your
cookware, recipes and quantities when
you use this appliance.
