Helpful hints and tips

Inner side of door

On the inner side of the oven door you can find:

• the numbers of the shelf levels

• information about the oven functions, recommended shelf levels and temperatures

for typical dishes.

The temperature and baking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the

recipes, quality and quantity of the ingredients used.

Baking

General instructions

• Your new oven may bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. Adapt

your usual settings (temperature, cooking times) and shelf levels to the values in the

tables.

• With longer baking times, the oven can be switched off about 10 minutes before the

end of baking time, to use the residual heat.

When you use frozen food, the trays in the oven can twist during baking. When

the trays get cold again, the distortion will be gone.

How to use the Baking Tables

• We recommend to use the lower temperature the first time.

• If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the one that is almost the

same.

• Baking time can be extended by 10-15 minutes, if you bake cakes on more than one

level.

• Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equally at first. If this oc-

curs, do not change the temperature setting. The differences equalize during the bak-

ing procedure.

1) Pre-heat the oven

Slow Cook

Use the function to prepare lean, tender pieces of meat and fish.

The oven gets the pre-set temperature and a signal operates. Then, the oven automatical-

ly sets to a lower temperature to continue cooking.

Always cook without a lid when you use the Slow Cook function.

1. Sear the meat in a pan in a very high heat.

2. Put the meat in a roasting dish or directly on the oven shelf. Put the tray below the

shelf to catch the fat.

3. Set the oven function Slow Cook , change the temperature, if necessary, and cook

until done (see table).

You cannot use Slow Cook together with the clock functions: Duration and End.

To see which oven function you must use please refer to the oven functions list in Daily

use chapter.
