(see illustration).
These levels are referred to in the cooking tables at the end of the manual.
Always count the levels from the bottom upwards.
BAKING IN THE OVEN
Baking tips
Pierce the cake with a wooden skewer at the thickest part, if the dough does not stick to it,
the cake is cooked all the way through.
Check the recipe. You may need to use smaller quantity of liquid components next time.
Ensure mixing times are followed, especially when using electric mixers, to ensure the right
consistency is achieved.
We recommend using darker oven dishes for better results. You can also try baking one
level lower next time or use the pastry plus function to finish off the cooking process.
Next time reduce the temperature and extend the baking time.
The temperature ranges and baking times given in the tables are indicative. We recommend
selecting the lower temperature to begin with and increasing it in the later stages of cooking
if required.
Use the bake or fan bake functions for best results.
We would recommend the use of dark baking dishes as light ones reflect heat and pastry
may not be adequately browned.
Always place the baking dishes onto the grill shelves. Only remove the shelf if baking in the
flat biscuit tray supplied with the oven.
Do not put the cake in the oven until it has reached the required temperature.
If the required cake type is not listed, refer to the one most similar to it.
The cooking advice given in the following tables is approximate and can be adjusted based
on your previous experience and cooking preferences.
Please note:
Please note:
Is the cake cooked all the way through?
