settings such as temperature, cooking time
and shelf position to the values in the tables.
• Use the lower temperature the first time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a special
recipe, look for the similar one.
• You can extend baking times by 10 – 15
minutes if you bake cakes on more than one
shelf position.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights do
not always brown equally at first. If this
occurs, do not change the temperature
setting. The differences equalize during the
baking procedure.
• Trays in the oven can twist during baking.
When the trays become cold again, the
distortions disappear.
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.
