11. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

The temperature and baking times
in the tables are guidelines only.
They depend on the recipes and
the quality and quantity of the in-
gredients used.
11.1 Advice for special heating
functions of the oven
Keep Warm
Use this function if you want to keep food
warm.
The temperature regulates itself automati-
cally to 80 °C.
Plate Warming
For warming plates and dishes.
Distribute plates and dishes evenly on the
oven shelf. Move stacks around after half
of the warming time (swap top and bot-
tom).
The automatic temperature is 70 °C.
Recommended shelf position: 3.
Dough Proving
You can use this automatic function with
any recipe for yeast dough you like. It
gives you a good atmosphere for rising.
Put the dough into a dish that is big
enough for rising and cover it with a wet
towel or plastic foil. Insert a wire shelf on
level one and put the dish in. Close the
door and set the function dough proving.
Set the necessary time.

11.2 Baking
General instructions
• Your new oven can bake or roast differ-
ently to the appliance you had before.
Adapt your usual settings (temperature,
cooking times) and shelf positions to
the values in the tables.
• With longer baking times, you can de-
activate the oven approximately 10 mi-
nutes before the end of the baking time
and then use the residual heat.
When you cook frozen food, the trays
in the oven can twist during baking.
When the trays become cold again,
the distortions are gone.
How to use the Baking Tables
• The manufacturer recommends that
you use the lower temperature the first
time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a spe-
cial recipe, look for the one that is al-
most the same.
• You can extend baking times by 10 –
15 minutes if you bake cakes on more
than one level.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights
do not always brown equally at first. If
this occurs, do not change the temper-
ature setting. The differences equalize
during the baking procedure.
Possible cause
The shelf position is in-
correct.
The oven temperature is
too high.
The baking time is too
short.
Remedy
Put the cake on a lower
shelf.
The next time you bake,
set a slightly lower oven
temperature.
Set a longer baking time.
You cannot decrease
baking times by setting
higher temperatures.
