HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
The temperature and baking times in
the tables are guidelines only. They
depend on the recipes and the quality
and quantity of the ingredients used.
BAKING
• Your oven may bake or roast differently to the
appliance you had before. Adapt your usual
settings (temperature, cooking times) and shelf
positions to the values in the tables.
• The manufacturer recommends that you use the
lower temperature the first time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a special
recipe, look for the one that is almost the same.
• You can extend baking times by 10 – 15
minutes if you bake cakes on more than one
shelf position.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights do not
always brown equally at first. If this occurs, do
not change the temperature setting. The
differences equalize during the baking
procedure.
• With longer baking times, you can deactivate
the oven 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.
