Put the shelf on the correct shelf
position. Make sure it does not touch the
back wall of the oven.
Tray:
Do not push the baking tray
all the way to the back wall
of the cavity. This prevents
the heat from circulating
around the tray. The food
may be burnt, especially in
the rear part of the tray.

11. OVEN - HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
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.
11.1 General information
• The appliance has five shelf positions.
Count the shelf positions from the
bottom of the appliance floor.
• Moisture can condense in the
appliance or on the door glass panels.
This is normal. Always stand back
from the appliance when you open the
appliance door while cooking. To
decrease the condensation, operate
the appliance for 10 minutes before
cooking.
• Clean the moisture after each use of
the appliance.
• Do not put the objects directly on the
appliance floor and do not put
aluminium foil on the components
when you cook. This can change the
baking results and cause damage to
the enamel.
11.2 Baking
• Use the lower temperature the first
time.
Put the tray or deep pan on the shelf
position. Make sure it does not touch the
back wall of the oven.
• Cakes and pastries at different
heights do not always brown equally.
There is no need to change the
temperature setting if an unequal
browning occurs. The differences
equalize during baking.
• Trays in the oven can twist during
baking. When the trays become cold
again, the distortions disappear.
11.3 Baking cakes
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of
the set cooking time is up.
11.4 Cooking meat and fish
Leave the meat for approximately 15
minutes before carving so that the juice
does not seep out.
To prevent too much smoke in the oven
during roasting, add some water into the
deep pan. To prevent the smoke
condensation, add water each time after
it dries up.
11.5 Cooking times
Cooking times depend on the type of
food, its consistency, and volume.
Initially, monitor the performance when
you cook. Find the best settings (heat
setting, cooking time, etc.) for your
cookware, recipes and quantities when
you use this appliance.
