Tips for saving energy
The following information will help you to use your
appliance in an ecological way, and to save energy:
•
Use dark coloured or enamel coated cookware
in the oven as the heat transmission will be
better.
•
Perform a preheating operation if it is advised
in the user manual or cooking instructions.
•
Do not open the door of the oven frequently
during cooking.
•
Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at
the same time whenever possible. You can
place two cooking vessels onto the wire shelf.
•
Cook one dish after another. The oven will
already be hot.
•
You can save energy by switching off your oven
a few minutes before the end of the cooking
time. Do not open the oven door.
•
Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them if
possible.
