OVEN - USING THE ACCESSORIES

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.
General information
• The appliance has five shelf positions.
Count the shelf positions from the
bottom of the appliance floor.
• Moisture can condense in the appliance
or on the door glass panels. This is
normal. Always stand back from the
appliance when you open the appliance
door while cooking. To decrease the
condensation, operate the appliance for
10 minutes before cooking.
• Clean the moisture after each use of the
appliance.
• Do not put the objects directly on the
appliance floor and do not put aluminium
foil on the components when you cook.
This can change the baking results and
cause damage to the enamel.
Baking
Use the lower temperature the first time.
You can extend baking times by 10 – 15
minutes if you bake cakes on more than
one shelf position.
Trays in the oven can twist during baking.
When the trays become cold again, the
distortions disappear.
Baking cakes
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of
the set cooking time is up.
Cooking meat and fish
Leave the meat for approximately 15
minutes before carving so that the juice
does not seep out.
To prevent too much smoke in the oven
during roasting, add some water into the
deep pan. To prevent the smoke
condensation, add water each time after it
dries up.
Cooking times
Cooking times depend on the type of food,
its consistency, and volume.
Initially, monitor the performance when you
cook. Find the best settings (heat setting,
cooking time, etc.) for your cookware,
recipes and quantities when you use this
appliance.
