7.1 Cookware
The cooking results depend on the cookware
material
The bottom of the cookware must be as
thick and flat as possible.
Ensure pan bases are clean and dry
before placing on the hob surface.

ridges, e.g. cast iron pans. These could
scratch or scour the hob surface
permanently.
Cookware made of enamelled steel and
with aluminium or copper bottoms can
cause a colour change on the glass-
ceramic surface.
To save energy and ensure that the hob
operates properly the cookware bottom must
have a suitable minimum diameter.

10. OVEN - 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.
10.1 Baking
For the first baking, use the lower
temperature.
You can extend the baking time 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. There is no need to
change the temperature setting if an unequal
browning occurs. The differences equalize
during baking.
Trays in the oven can distort during baking.
When the trays are cold again, the distortions
disappear.
10.2 Tips on baking
Baking results Possible cause Remedy
The bottom of the cake is not
baked sufficiently.
The shelf position is incorrect. Put the cake on a lower shelf.
The cake sinks and becomes
soggy or streaky.
The oven temperature is too high. Next time set slightly lower oven tempera‐
ture.
The oven temperature is too high
and the baking time is too short.
Next time set a longer baking time and
lower oven temperature.
The cake is too dry. The oven temperature is too low. Next time set higher oven temperature.
The baking time is too long. Next time set shorter baking time.
The cake bakes unevenly. The oven temperature is too high
and the baking time is too short.
Next time set a longer baking time and
lower oven temperature.
The cake batter is not evenly dis‐
tributed.
Next time spread the cake batter evenly on
the baking tray.
The cake is not ready in the
baking time specified in a rec‐
ipe.
The oven temperature is too low. Next time set a slightly higher oven tem‐
perature.

1) When frying or boiling fish, the cooking time depends on the thickness of the fish. The fish is finished when the
flesh is white. Test by sticking a fork into the fish. If the flesh comes easily away from the bone, the fish is cooked.
2) With cooking on two levels (double portion) the time is around 1/3 longer than that stated on the packaging. If
the time given is 30 min, then the preparation time will be around 30 + 10 = 40 min.
10.5 Tips on Roasting
Use heat-resistant ovenware.
Roast lean meat covered (you can use
aluminium foil).
Roast large meat joints directly in the tray.
Put some water in the tray to prevent dripping
fat from burning.
Turn the roast after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking
time.
Roast meat and fish in large pieces (1 kg or
more).
If level one is suggested put the food directly
on the baking tray
Baste meat joints with their own juice several
times during roasting.

10.8 Preserving - Bottom heat
• Use only preserve jars of the same
dimensions available on the market.
• Do not use jars with twist-off and bayonet
type lids, or metal tins.
• Use the first shelf from the bottom for this
function.
• Put no more than six one-litre preserve
jars on the baking tray.
• Fill the jars up to the same level and close
with a clamp.
• The jars cannot touch each other.
• Put approximately 1/2 litre of water into
the baking tray to give sufficient moisture
in the oven.
• When the liquid in the jars starts to simmer
(after approx. 35 - 60 minutes with one-
litre jars), stop the oven or decrease the
temperature to 100 °C (see the table).
