Here, you can find the ideal settings for preparing
chilled and frozen food.
Only use original accessories supplied with your
appliance. These have been tailored to the cooking
compartment and the operating modes of your
appliance.
Tips
■
The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of
the food. Pre-browning and unevenness may already
be present on the packaged product.
■
Do not use frozen products that are heavily frosted.
Remove any ice on the food.
■
Distribute foods which are in pieces, such as bread
rolls and potato products, so that they are spread
flat and evenly on the accessories. Leave a little
space between the individual pieces.
■
Observe the instructions on the packaging.
Steam- assisted baking
Certain types of baked item (e.g. yeast-risen pastries)
get a more crispy crust and a more glossy surface if
baked with the steam assist mode. The baked item
does not dry out as much.
Steam-assisted baking is only possible on one level.
Shelf positions
Use the indicated shelf positions.
Baking on one level
When baking on one level, use the following shelf
positions:
■
Tall baked items: Level 2
■
Flat baked items: Level 3
If you are using CircoTherm Hot air as the type of
heating, you can choose between levels 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Baking on two levels
Use CircoTherm. Baked items that are placed into the
oven on trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time
will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
■
Universal pan: Level 3
Baking tray: Level 1
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack
Insert the wire rack with the open side facing the
appliance door and the curved lip pointing downwards.
Always place ovenware, tins and dishes on the wire
rack.
Universal pan or baking tray
Slide the universal pan or the baking tray in carefully as
far as the limit stop with the bevelled edge facing the
appliance door.
Greaseproof paper
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the
selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof paper to
size.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for
various dishes. Temperature and cooking time depend
on the quantity and composition of the product. Setting
ranges are indicated for this reason. Try using the lower
values at first. A lower temperature results in more even
browning. You can use a higher setting next time if
necessary.
Note:
Cooking times cannot be reduced by using
higher temperatures. The dish would only be cooked on
the outside, but would not be fully cooked in the middle.
The setting values apply to dishes placed into a cold
cooking compartment. By doing so, you can make
energy savings of up to 20 per cent. If you preheat the
oven, the indicated cooking times will be reduced by
several minutes.
Preheating is necessary for selected dishes, and this is
indicated in the table.
