Tips, tables and advice
Baking
Oven levels
• Baking with Conventional Cooking is only
possible on one level.
• When baking with Fan Cooking one to two
baking trays can be put into the bottom
oven at the same time:
1 tray, e.g. oven level 3
1 cake in cake tin, e.g. oven level
1
2 tray, e.g. oven levels 1 and 3
Baking tins
• Baking tins made from dark-coloured metal
with Teflon coating are suitable for baking
using Conventional Cooking.
• For baking using the Fan Cooking function,
baking tins made of shiny light-coloured
metal are suitable.
General instructions
• Insert the tray with the bevel at the front.
• When baking using Conventional Cooking
and Fan Cooking , you can also place two
baking trays next to one another on one
level. This does not significantly affect the
baking time.
When frozen items are placed on
baking trays, they can buckle during
cooking. This happens due to the large
difference in temperature between the
frozen item and the oven. After
cooling, the buckling in the trays
disappears.
How to use the Baking Tables
• The tables give the required temperature
settings, cooking times and oven levels for
a selection of typical dishes.
• Temperatures and baking times are for
guidance only, as these will depend on the
consistency of pastry, dough or mixture,
the amount and the type of baking tin.
• We recommend setting the oven to a
lower temperature for the first time and
only setting a higher temperature when
required, e.g. if you require more browning
or if the baking is taking too long.
• If you cannot find the settings for a certain
recipe, look for similar items.
