3.1 To save energy
• Only preheat the appliance if the recipe
requires you to do so.
• Unless otherwise indicated on the
package, defrost frozen foods before
placing them in the oven.
• When cooking several types of food it is
recommended to cook the foods one
after the other to make the best use of the
already hot oven.
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to
absorb the heat better.

required during cooking.
