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.
General information
• The appliance has five shelf positions. Count the
shelf positions from the bottom of the appliance
floor.
• The appliance has a special system which
circulates the air and constantly recycles the
steam. With this system you can cook in a
steamy environment and keep the food soft
inside and crusty outside. It decreases the
cooking time and energy consumption to a
minimum.
• 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 cakes
• Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the
set cooking time is up.
• If you use two baking trays at the same time,
keep one empty level between them.
Cooking meat and fish
• Use a deep pan for very fatty food to prevent
the oven from stains that can be permanent.
• 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.
