Helpful hints and tips
Information on acrylamides
Important! According to the newest
scientific knowledge, if you brown food
(specially the one which contains starch),
acrylamides can pose a health risk. Thus, we
recommend that you cook at the lowest
temperatures and do not brown food too
much.
Inner side of door
On the inner side of the oven door you can
find:
• the numbers of the shelf levels
• information about the oven functions, rec-
ommended shelf levels and temperatures
for typical dishes.
The temperature and baking times in the
tables are guidelines only. They depend
on the recipes, quality and quantity of
the ingredients used.
Baking
General instructions
• Your new oven may bake or roast differ-
ently to the appliance you had before.
Adapt your usual settings (temperature,
cooking times) and shelf levels to the val-
ues in the tables.
• With longer baking times, the oven can be
switched off about 10 minutes before the
end of baking time, to use the residual
heat.
When you use frozen food, the trays in
the oven can twist during baking. When
the trays get cold again, the distortion
will be gone.
How to use the Baking Tables
• We recommend to use the lower temper-
ature the first time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a special
recipe, look for the one that is almost the
same.
• Baking time can be extended by 10-15
minutes, if you bake cakes on more than
one level.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights do
not always brown equally at first. If this oc-
curs, do not change the temperature set-
ting. The differences equalize during the
baking procedure.
