Baking

General instructions

•Your new oven may bake or roast differ- ently to the appliance you had before. Adapt your usual settings (temperature, cooking times) and shelf levels to the val- ues 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 residu- al 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.
