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.
Always preheat an empty
oven at the temperature
required for the food for 20
minutes before you start
cooking.
10.1 Baking
• Your oven may bake or roast
differently to the appliance you had
before. Adapt your usual settings
such as temperature, cooking time
and shelf position to the values in the
tables.

• Use the lower temperature the first
time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a
special recipe, look for the similar
one.
• You can extend baking times 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
at first. If this occurs, do not change
the temperature setting. The
differences equalize during the baking
procedure.
• Trays in the oven can twist during
baking. When the trays become cold
again, the distortions disappear.
Possible cause
The shelf position is incor‐
rect.
The oven temperature is
too high.
The baking time is too
short.
There is too much liquid in
the mixture.
The oven temperature is
too low.
The baking time is too
long.
The oven temperature is
too high and the baking
time is too short.
The mixture is unevenly
distributed.
ENGLISH
Remedy

The next time you bake,

with mixing times, espe‐
cially if you use a mixing
