11.3 Baking
General instructions
• Your new appliance can bake or roast
differently to the appliance you had be-
fore. Adapt your usual settings (temper-
ature, cooking times) and shelf posi-
tions to the values in the tables.
• With longer baking times, you can de-
activate the appliance approximately 10
minutes 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.
11.4 Baking cakes
• The best temperature for baking cakes
is between 150 °C and 200 °C.
• Preheat the appliance for approximately
10 minutes before baking.
• Do not open the door of the appliance
before 3/4 of the set cooking time is up.
• If you use two baking trays at the same
time, keep one level empty between
them.

correct.
