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.
9.1
Cooking recommendations
The oven has five shelf positions.
Count the shelf positions from the
bottom of the oven floor.
Your oven may bake or roast differently
to the oven you had before. The below
tables provide you with the standard
settings for temperature, cooking time
and shelf position.
If you cannot find the settings for a
special recipe, look for the similar one.
Baking cakes
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of
the set cooking time is up.
Grilling
Put the food close to the top heating
element for faster cooking and further
away for more gentle cooking.
To minimise splashing, you should dry
food before grilling. Apply a little oil or
melted butter on lean meats and fish to
keep them moist during cooking.
You can place accompaniments such as
tomatoes and mushrooms underneath
the grid when grilling meats.
You should turn over the food during
cooking, as you require.
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.
