Preserving - AEG COMPETENCE B1100-2 Operating Instructions Manual

Preserving

For making preserves, use the bottom heat Ü oven function.
Preserving jars
• When making preserves, use only commercially available jars of the
same size.
Jars with twist-off tops or with a bayonet fastening and metal
3
containers are not suitable.
Shelf positions
• Use the 1st shelf position from the bottom for making preserves.
Notes on preserves
• Use the universal tray for preserves. There is room for up to six jars,
each with a capacity of 1 litre.
• The jars should all be filled to the same level and closed.
• Position the jars on the universal baking tray so that they do not
come into contact with one another.
• Pour about ½ litre of water into the universal baking tray so that
there is sufficient moisture in the oven.
• As soon as bubbles begin to appear in the first jars (for 1-litre jars this
takes about 35-60 minutes), switch off the oven or reduce the tem-
perature to 100° C (see table).
