Oven - Helpful hints and tips
Warning! Refer to the Safety
chapters.
The temperature and baking times in
the tables are guidelines only. They
depend on the recipes, quality and
quantity of the ingredients used.
Top oven
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It
has 3 shelf levels. Use is to cook smaller
quantities of food. It gives especially good results
when used to cook fruitcakes, sweets and
savoury flants or quiche.
Main oven
The main oven is particularly suitable for
cooking larger quantities of food.
Baking
General instructions
• Your new oven may bake or roast differently
to the appliance you had before. Adapt your
usual settings (temperature, cooking times)
and shelf levels to the values in the tables.
• With longer baking times, the oven can be
switched off about 10 minutes before the end
of baking time, to use the residual heat.
When you use frozen food, the trays in
the oven can twist during baking. When
the trays get cold again, the distortion
will be gone.
How to use the Baking Tables
• We recommend to 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.
• Baking time can be extended by 10-15
minutes, if you bake cakes on more than one
level.
• 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.
