Gentle Bake - Miele H2561B Operating And Installation Instructions

Gentle bake

Gentle Bake is suitable for small
amounts, e.g. frozen pizzas, bake-off
rolls, biscuits and for meat dishes and
roasts. The optimal use of heat enables
savings of up to 30 % energy to be
made compared to cooking with a
standard oven function with
comparatively good cooking results.
This function is not suitable for larger
amounts of food such as sponge cakes
and fresh fruit cake where the cake mix
needs to be thoroughly baked
throughout. No energy savings would
be achieved.
The temperature can be set between
100 and 250 °C.
The oven lighting does not switch on in
this function.
For optimum results keep the door
shut whilst cooking.
