for baking you can use commercially available moulds and trays, which should
be placed on the wire grid. It is recommended that you use aluminium or silver-
coloured tins, which should fit within the outline of the wire grid. Muffin and
cupcake tins and moulds should be placed transversely in the oven cavity.
before the cake is taken out of the oven, check if it is ready using a wooden
stick (if the cake is ready the stick should come out dry and clean after being
inserted into the cake);
after switching off the oven it is advisable to leave the cake inside for about
5 min.;
the baking parameters given in Tables are approximate and can be corrected
based on your own experience and cooking preferences;
if information given in recipe books is significantly different from the values
included in this instruction manual, please apply the instructions from the
manual.
