• With longer baking times, the appli-
ance can be switched off about 10 mi-
nutes before the end of baking time,
to use the residual heat.
When you use frozen food, the trays
in the appliance can twist during bak-
ing. When the trays get cold again,
the distortion will be gone.
How to use the Baking Tables
• We recommend to use the lower tem-
perature the first time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a
special recipe, look for the one that is
almost the same.
