COOKING TIMES
The table shows some examples for the adjustment of the temperature and the cooking time.
The cooking times can vary according to the type of food and its weight.

•The times indicated in the table refer to the cooking of one food only. For more than one food, the cooking times should be increased by 5 - 10 minutes.
