are unsuitable.
Shelf positions

Notes on preserving
• Use the universal tray for preserving. There is room for up to 6 pre-
serving jars each with a capacity of 1 litre on this tray.
• The preserving jars should all be filled to the same level and closed.
• Position the preserving jars on the universal baking tray so that they
do not come into contact with one another.
• Pour about 1/2 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 liquid in the first jars (for
1-litre jars this takes about 35-60 minutes), switch off the oven or
reduce the temperature to 100 °C (see table).
