Baking

Conventional A

Only one shelf should be used for this function. If more than one shelf position is needed use Fan heat instead.

This function is particularly good for rich fruit cakes, pastries and breads where a fairly long cooking time is re- quired and a deep colour and good rise are needed.

It is usually necessary to pre-heat the oven when using this method.

Place tins on the wire rack on runner level 2 or 3 so that they are centrally positioned in the oven.

When baking cakes with fresh fruit toppings and tall sponge cakes place the tin in the grill pan to catch any spillages and keep the oven cleaner.

When baking anything with a high salt content (such as pretzels) these must be placed on baking parchment. High concentrations of salt can damage PerfectClean surfaces.

The Baking Chart and the Miele Cookbook give suggestions for tem- perature, runner heights and times.

General notes

For even browning –

Place rectangular tins in the oven as shown in the illustration.

Bake larger deep-frozen items such as pizzas on baking paper on the rack itself or in the pizza pan (see "Extra ac- cessories"). Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan can cause the metal to distort. This distortion would in- crease with subsequent use.

Deep frozen foods such as oven chips or potato croquettes can be cooked on the baking tray or grill pan.

Select the runner height according to the recipe and the setting chosen.

Just before the end of baking time test to see if the cake is done.

Insert a metal or wooden skewer into the centre.

If it comes out clean, without dough or crumbs sticking to it, the cake is ready.

Always remove all trays and racks not being used when using the oven to get the best results and to keep cleaning of the trays to a minimum.

The cooling fan will continue for a while after switching the oven off.
