Notes on using the baking
charts
The data for the recommended function
is printed in bold.
Unless otherwise stated, the durations
given are for an oven which has not
been pre-heated. With a pre-heated
oven, shorten durations by up to
10 minutes.
Temperature
As a general rule, select the lower
temperature given in the chart.
Baking at temperatures higher than
those recommended may reduce the
cooking time, but will lead to uneven
browning, and unsatisfactory cooking
results.
Duration
Check if the food is cooked at the end
of the shortest time quoted. To check if
a cake is ready, insert a wooden skewer
into the centre. It is ready if the skewer
comes out clean, without dough or
crumbs sticking to it.
Shelf level
The shelf level on which you place your
food for baking depends on the oven
function and number of trays being
used.
–
Fan plus
1 tray: level 2
2 trays: levels 1+3 / 2+4
3 trays: levels 1+3+5
When using the universal tray and
baking tray to bake on two or more
levels at the same time, place the
universal tray underneath the baking
tray.
Bake moist biscuits and cakes on a
maximum of two levels at the same
time.
–
Moisture Plus
1 tray: level 2
–
Intensive bake
1 tray: level 1 or 2
–
Conventional heat
1 tray: level 1 or 2
