en Familiarising yourself with your appliance
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking
tins.
¡ These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
larly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
¡ This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment and eliminates the need for the appliance
to reheat.
When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or
in parallel.
¡ The cooking compartment is heated after baking
the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the
second cake.

quired to defrost it.
