3.3 Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve
consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
• To prevent condensation from forming on
the glass, hot food should not be left
inside the oven for too long after
cooking.
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; if not, it
needs to be cooked for a few more
minutes.
• For meat and potatoes, it is
recommended to turn and / or mix the
food from time to time in order to obtain
a uniform browning on all sides.
• For slow cooking, brown the meat in a
pan for a few minutes on all sides before
cooking in the oven.

Advice for cooking with the Grill and the
Fan with grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function, we
recommend that you preheat the oven
before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to
absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
of the dough.
• To 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.
