8.ENERGY SAVING ADVICE
8.1
For built-in ovens Cooking
processes
- Take all the accessories that are not needed in the cooking process out of the oven.
-Choose the lowest temperature specified in the recipe and
control the food after the shortest specified time period.
-Preheat the oven only when necessary according to the recipe.
-Avoid opening the oven as far as possible during the cooking process.
-Preferably use matte, dark baking molds and dishes made of non-reflective materials
(enamelled steel,
heat resistant glass, coated aluminum / cast iron). Shiny materials like
stainless steel or aluminum reflect heat away from the food. Also, do not place
the heat-reflecting stanniol at the bottom of the oven or on the racks.
- Monitor the cooking time to avoid wasting energy when preparing the food.
Set a required cooking time, or use a roasting thermometer if available.
- Hot air Plus is a heating form that can be used for preparing many dishes at lower
temperatures than with other heating forms.
With over-under heat *the heat is immediately distributed throughout the oven volume
and thus, many dishes can be evenly prepared on several levels at the same time.
- ECO hot air is an innovative form of heating, that is especially suitable for small
quantities, e.g. deep-frozen pizzas, bread or cookies, but also for meat dishes
and roasts. This heating form saves up to 30% of energy if compared to regular
heating forms, and thus it guarantees an energy-efficient cooking experience with
optimal heat utilization. Avoid opening the oven during the cooking process.
- Use the Grill with ventilation heating form for grill dishes as far as possible.
This utilizes lower temperatures than other grill heating forms.
-If possible, prepare several dishes at the same time. Place
them side by side or on different oven racks.
-Dishes that cannot be prepared simultaneously should be prepared right
after each other to utilize the heat in the oven as much as possible.
