11. OVEN - HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
The temperature and baking times in the
tables are guidelines only. They depend
on the recipes and the quality and
quantity of the ingredients used.
11.1 General information
The appliance has four shelf positions. Count
the shelf positions from the bottom of the
appliance floor.
The appliance has a special system which
circulates the air and constantly recycles the
steam. With this system you can cook in a
steamy environment and keep the food soft
inside and crusty outside. It decreases the
cooking time and energy consumption to a
minimum.
Moisture can condense in the appliance or on
the door glass panels. This is normal. Always
stand back from the appliance when you
open the appliance door while cooking. To
decrease the condensation, operate the
appliance for 10 minutes before cooking.
Clean the moisture after each use of the
appliance.
Do not put the objects directly on the
appliance floor and do not put aluminium foil
on the components when you cook. This can
change the baking results and cause damage
to the enamel.
11.2 Baking
For the first baking, use the lower
temperature.

You can extend the baking time 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. There is no need to
change the temperature setting if an unequal
browning occurs. The differences equalize
during baking.
Trays in the oven can distort during baking.
When the trays are cold again, the distortions
disappear.
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.
