Preserves Table - AEG Electrolux KB9800E User Manual

38 Usage, Tables and Tips
• Jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins are not suitable.
• When making preserves, use the first shelf position from the bottom.
• Use the baking tray for making preserves. There is enough room on this for up
to six 1-litre preserving jars.
• The jars should all be filled to the same level and clamped shut.
• Place the jars on the baking tray in such a way that they are not touching each
other.
• Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray, so that sufficient moisture
is produced in the oven.
• As soon as the liquid in the first jars starts to simmer (after approx. 35-60 minutes
with 1 litre jars), switch the oven off or reduce the temperature to 100°C. (See
table.)
