9.1.3 Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits

• Use dark metal moulds for desserts: they help to absorb the heat better.

• The temperature and the cooking duration depend on the quality and

consistency of the dough.

• Check whether the dessert is cooked right through: at the end of the cooking

time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does

not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.

• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion

reduce the set temperature by about 10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if

necessary.

9.1.4 Advice for defrosting and proving

• We recommend positioning frozen foods in a lidless container on the first

runner of the oven.

• The food must be defrosted without its wrapping.

• Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping.

• When defrosting meat, we recommend using a rack positioned on the

second runner with the food on it and a tray positioned on the first runner. In

this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.

• The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.

• For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom

of the oven.

9.1.5 Advice for cooking with the Grill and the Fan-assisted grill

• Using the Grill function , meat can be grilled even when it is put into the

oven cold; preheating is recommended if you wish to change the effect of the

cooking.

• With the Fan-assisted grill function , however, we recommend that you

preheat the oven before grilling.

9.2 To save energy

To save energy during use of the appliance, the following instructions may be

followed:

• Stop cooking a few minutes before the time normally used. Cooking will

continue for the remaining minutes with the heat which has accumulated

inside the oven.

• Reduce any opening of the door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal.

• Use the ECO function (on some models only) for cooking small quantities of

food.

• Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.
