10. OVEN - HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
WARNING!
Do not touch the area
behind the flap, as it heats
up during use of the oven.
The temperature and baking
times in the tables are
guidelines only. They
depend on the recipes and

oven during roasting, add some water
into the deep pan. To prevent the
smoke condensation, add water each
time after it dries up.
10.4 Cooking times
