9.1 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.

General instructions

nutes 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.
Possible cause
The shelf position is in-
correct.
The oven temperature is
too high.
The baking time is too
short.
There is too much liquid
in the mixture.
The oven temperature is
too low.
The baking time is too
long.
Remedy
Put the cake on a lower
shelf.
The next time you bake,
set a slightly lower oven
temperature.
Set a longer baking time.
You cannot decrease
baking times by setting
higher temperatures.
Use less liquid. Be careful
with mixing times, espe-
cially if you use a mixing
machine.
The next time you bake,
set a higher oven temper-
ature.
The next time you bake,
set a shorter baking time.
