Baking tins
• Baking tins made from dark-coloured metal with Tef-
lon coating are suitable for baking using Conven-
tional Cooking.
• For baking using the Fan Cooking function, baking
tins made of shiny light-coloured metal are suitable.
General instructions
• Insert the tray with the bevel at the front.
• When baking using Conventional Cooking and Fan
Cooking , you can also place two baking trays next
to one another on one level. This does not signifi-
cantly affect the baking time.
When frozen items are placed on baking trays,
they can buckle during cooking. This happens
due to the large difference in temperature between the
frozen item and the oven. After cooling, the buckling in
the trays disappears.
How to use the Baking Tables
• The tables give the required temperature settings,
cooking times and oven levels for a selection of typ-
ical dishes.
• Temperatures and baking times are for guidance
only, as these will depend on the consistency of
pastry, dough or mixture, the amount and the type
of baking tin.
• We recommend setting the oven to a lower temper-
ature for the first time and only setting a higher tem-
perature when required, e.g. if you require more
browning or if the baking is taking too long.
• If you cannot find the settings for a certain recipe,
look for similar items.
• The baking time can be 10-15 minutes longer when
baking cakes on trays or in tins on multiple levels.
• Recipes with moist ingredients such as pizzas or fruit
flans are to be baked on one level.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights may brown
at an uneven rate at first. You should not change the
temperature setting if this occurs. Different rates of
browning even out as baking progresses.
• Baking and roasting times could differ from those of
your previous oven. For this reason you should ad-
just the settings you usually use (temperature, cook-
ing times, etc.) and oven levels to the recommen-
dations provided in the following tables.
Roasting
Ovenware for roasting
• Any heat-resistant ovenware is suitable to use for
roasting. (Please follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.)
• You can place large roasts directly in the roasting
tray or on the shelf with the roasting tray under-
neath.
• We recommend roasting leaner cuts in a roasting
pan with a lid. The meat will be more succulent.
• All types of meat which are supposed to be browned
or form a crust or crackling can be roasted in a
roasting pan without a lid.
The information given in the following tables is for
guidance only.
• We recommend meat and fish weighing 1 kg or
more for roasting in the oven.
