11. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

11.1 Inner side of the door
In some models, on the inner side of
the door you can find:
• The numbers of the shelf positions.
• Information about the heating functions,
recommended shelf positions and tem-
peratures for typical dishes.
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.
11.2 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.

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.
Possible cause
The shelf position is in-
correct.
The temperature in the
appliance is too high.
ENGLISH
Remedy
Put the cake on a lower
shelf.
The next time you bake,
set a slightly lower tem-
perature in the appliance.
