the upper parts of the furniture due to
the temperature difference. This is a nor-
mal and physical occurrence.
• The cooking temperature and time val-
ues given for foods may vary depending
on the recipe and amount. For this
reason, these values are given as
ranges.
• Always remove unused accessories from
the oven before you start cooking. Ac-
cessories that will remain in the oven
may prevent your food from being
cooked at the correct values.
• For foods that you will cook according to
your own recipe, you can reference sim-
ilar foods given in the cooking tables.
• Using the supplied accessories ensures
you get the best cooking performance.
Always observe the warnings and in-
formation provided by the manufacturer
for the external cookware you will use.
• Cut the greaseproof paper you will use in
your cooking in suitable sizes to the
container you will cook. Greaseproof pa-
pers that are overflowing from the con-
tainer can create a risk of burns and af-
fect the quality of your baking. Use the
greaseproof paper you will use in the
temperature range specified.
• For good baking performance, place your
food on the recommended correct shelf.
Do not change the shelf position during
baking.
6.2.1 Pastries and oven food
General Information
• We recommend using the accessories of
the product for a good cooking perform-
ance. If you will use an external cook-
ware, prefer dark, non-sticking and heat
resistant ware.
• If preheating is recommended in the
cooking table, be sure to put your food in
the oven after preheating.
• If you will cook by using cookware on the
wire grill, place it in the middle of the
wire grill, not near the back wall.
• All materials used in making pastry
should be fresh and at room temperat-
ure.
• The cooking status of the foods may
vary depending on the amount of food
and the size of the cookware.
• Metal, ceramic and glass moulds extend
the cooking time and the bottom sur-
faces of pastry foods do not brown
evenly.
• If you are using baking paper, a small
browning can be observed on the bottom
surface of the food. In this situation, you
may have to extend your cooking period
by approximately 10 minutes.
• The values specified in the cooking
tables are determined as a result of the
tests carried out in our laboratories. Val-
ues suitable for you may differ from
these values.
• Place your food on the appropriate shelf
recommended in the cooking table. Refer
to the bottom shelf of the oven as shelf
1.
Tips for baking cakes
• If the cake is too dry, increase the tem-
perature by 10°C and shorten the baking
time.
• If the cake is moist, use a small amount
of liquid or reduce the temperature by
10°C.
• If the top of the cake is burnt, put it on
the lower shelf, lower the temperature
and increase the baking time.
• If the inside of the cake is cooked well,
but outside is sticky, use less liquid, de-
crease the temperature and increase the
cooking time.
Hints for pastry
• If the pastry is too dry, increase the tem-
perature by 10 °C and shorten the cook-
ing time. Wet the dough sheets with a
sauce consisting of milk, oil, egg and
yoghurt mixture.
• If the pastry is getting cooked slowly,
make sure that the thickness of the
pastry you have prepared does not over-
flow the tray.
