Baking Tips

1. Always place baking tins in the centre of the wire shelf.
2. Make sure you use bakeware that is oven proof.
3. Do not place bakeware too close to the rear of the oven wall.
4. You can influence the degree of browning by changing the temperature setting.
5. If a cake collapses after removing it from the oven:
• Use less liquid on your next attempt.
• Consider using a longer baking time or use a slightly lower temperature setting.

Energy Saving

To save energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend these hints:
• Preheat the oven only if expressly required by the recipe or guidelines.
• Dark baking tins have a higher degree of heat absorption.
• In the case of longer baking times, you can switch off the oven 5–10 minutes before the full baking time and
use the residual heat. This will reduce energy usage.
• Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of food at the same time.
• Cook 2 trays of scones, small cakes or sausage rolls at the same time.
• Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
• Do not open the oven door more than necessary.

Static Cooking Function
The static cooking function emits heat, ensuring even cooking of the lower and upper food,
this is an excellent function for making pastries, cakes, baked pasta, lasagne and pizza.
Lower Heating Function
The lower heating function is ideal for baking pizza, as the heat rises from the bottom of the
oven and warms food up, rather than cooking the foods.
Upper Heating Function
In this type of cooking, the heat emanating from upper heating element cooks the upper
side of the food. This is suitable for browning the top of a cooked dish.
Grilling Function
This function is used for grilling foods such as cheese on toast, always use the highest rack.
Lightly brush the grill rack with oil to stop foods sticking and place the foods in the centre.
The grill pan and rack should be used together to catch the drips of oil.
Faster Grilling Function
This function is used for faster grilling and for covering a larger surface area, such as grilling
meats, which tend to take up more room on a grilling rack. Use a lower shelf position for
grilling thick foods.
