Baking tips
Please refer to the baking chart for
recommended temperature ranges,
shelf levels and durations.
Handling and preparing food
correctly is essential for maintaining
good health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc.
until they are golden brown. Do not
overcook them.
Ensure that the grease filter is not
fitted in front of the air inlet for the
fan. This will prolong the baking
time.
Temperature, baking duration
To achieve even results without
over-browning the food,
– always select the lowest
temperature given in the chart.
Do not set a temperature higher than
that recommended. Increasing the
temperature may reduce the cooking
time, but will lead to an uneven
browning, and unsatisfactory
cooking result.
– check if the food is cooked at the
end of the shortest time quoted.
To check if a cake is ready, insert a
wooden skewer into the centre.
It is ready if the skewer comes out
clean, without dough or crumbs
sticking to it.

Bakeware
Material
U
Most types of heat-resistant tins
O
or dishes are suitable.
V Use baking tins made from dark
metal or enamel or from
aluminium with a matt finish.
Heat-resistant glass and
ceramic dishes can also be
used.
Bright, shiny metal tins result in
uneven or poor browning and in
some cases cakes might not
cook properly.
Baking paper
Because of its PerfectClean anti-stick
surface, the universal tray does not
need to be greased or lined with
baking paper for baking.
Baked goods are easily removed when
done.
Baking paper is only necessary when
baking:
– Anything with a high salt content
(e.g. pretzels, bread sticks), because
sodium can damage the
PerfectClean surface.
– Meringues or biscuits with a high
egg-white content, because they
are more likely to stick.
