Cooking in the oven

Conventional cooking (Traditional)
Conventional cooking is made by natural convection of
the heated air.
It is necessary to preheat the oven.

For small cakes, pastry, beaten mixture cakes in moulds.
1.
Preheat the oven, the oven function knob on
position :
-
about 8 min. for position 50ºC to 150ºC;
-
about 15 min for position 175ºC to 250ºC;
2. Insert the meal. Turn the oven thermostat knob
on to the required temperature.
Hints and Tips
There should always be at least 2.5cm between the
top of the food and the element. This gives the best
cooking results and allows room for rise in yeast
mixtures, Yorkshire puddings, etc. When cooking
cakes, pastry, scones, bread, etc., place the tins or
baking trays centrally below element.
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf and
there is sufficient room around the baking tray/dish to
allow for maximum circulation.
Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent
spillage onto the oven base and to help reduce
cleaning.
Enamelware, dark, or heavy utensils increase base
browning. Shiny aluminium or polished steel trays
reflect the heat away and give less base browning.
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven base as
it becomes very hot and damage may occur.
DO NOT use the grill pan or meat tin as a baking tray
as this will increase base browning of the food.
For economy leave the door open for the shortest
possible time, particularly when placing food into a
preheated oven.
Bottom oven element
The heat comes only from the bottom of the oven.
Thisposition of the oven function knob is
recommended forfinishing cooked dishes.
How to proceed?
1. Preheat the oven, the oven function knob on
position for about 10 minutes with the oven
thermostatknob on maximum position.
2. Insert the meal. Turn the oven thermostat knob
on thedesire temperature.

appliance are hot and the appliance should not be
left unattended. Take care that children do not

oven door closed. Attention: use the grill function
at maximum 210°C.
