Gentle Bake
Gentle Bake is suitable for small
amounts of food, e.g. frozen pizzas,
bake-off rolls, biscuits and for meat
dishes and roasts. The optimal use of
heat enables savings of up to 30%
energy to be made compared to
cooking with a standard oven function
with comparatively good cooking
results.
This function is not suitable for larger
amounts of food where fresh cake mix
needs to be thoroughly baked through
(such as sponge cake, fresh fruit cake
or small cakes). No energy savings
would be achieved.
The temperature can be set between 50
and 250 °C.
The oven lighting does not switch on
with this function.
For optimum energy savings, keep the
door closed whilst cooking.
