WARNING ‒ Risk of fire!
Opening the appliance door creates a draught.
Greaseproof paper may come into contact with the
heating element and catch fire.
Never place greaseproof paper loosely over ac-
▶
cessories when preheating the appliance and while
cooking.
Always cut greaseproof paper to size and use a
▶
plate or baking tin to hold it down.
17.4 Notes on baking

tray
Baking on two or more levels
Universal pan

Notes
¡ When baking on several layers, use hot air. Different
food that is placed in the oven at the same time will
not necessarily be ready at the same time.
In such cases, you can remove the cooked food
and continue to cook the other baking tray. If neces-
sary, you can change the position and direction of
the baking trays.
¡ Position baking tins/dishes either next to one an-
other or offset on different shelves so that they are
not directly one above the other in the cooking com-
partment. You can cut energy use by cooking differ-
ent items at the same time.

Recommended settings for cakes and baked items
The temperature and baking time depend on the quant-
ity and consistency of the dough. This is why temperat-
ure ranges are given in the tables. Set a short cooking
time first. If required, set a longer cooking time next
time. A lower temperature results in more even brown-
ing.

Tip
¡ Only grease the base
of the springform cake
tin.
¡ After baking, use a
knife to carefully
loosen the cake from
the baking tin.
Leave a minimum clear-
ance of 2 cm around
each item that is to be
baked. This allows
enough space for the
baked goods to expand
and brown on all sides.
Push a cocktail stick into
the highest point on the
cake. If the cocktail stick
comes out clean, the
cake is ready.
Use similar items in the
baking tables as a guide.
¡ The baking tin must be
heat-resistant up to
250 °C.
¡ Cakes in these types
of bakeware brown
less.
