General instructions
Insert the tray with the bevel at the front.
With Conventional or Convection with
ring heating element you can also bake
with two tins next to one another on the
oven shelf at the same time. This does not
significantly increase baking time.

When frozen foods are used the trays
inserted may distort during cooking.
This is due to the large difference in
temperature between the freezing tem-
perature and the temperature in the
oven. Once the trays have cooled they
will return to their normal shape.
How to use the baking tables
The tables give the required temperature set-
tings, baking times and oven shelf levels for a
selection of typical dishes.
Temperatures and baking times are for guid-
ance only, as these will depend on the con-
sistency of pastry, dough or mixture, the
amount and the type of baking tin.
We recommend using the lower tempera-
ture the first time and then if necessary, for
example, if a deeper browning is required,
or baking time is too long, selecting a higher
temperature.
If you cannot find the settings for a particu-
lar recipe, look for the one that is most sim-
ilar.
If baking cakes on baking trays or in tins on
more than one level, baking time may be ex-
tended by 10-15 minutes.
Moist recipes (for example, pizzas, fruit
flans, etc.) are baked on one level.
Cakes and pastries at different heights may
brown at an uneven rate at first. If this oc-
curs,
please do not change the temper-
ature setting
. Different rates of browning
even out as baking progresses.
Your new oven may bake or roast differently
to your previous appliance. So adapt your
normal settings (temperature, cooking
times) and oven shelf levels to the recom-
mendations in the following tables.

With longer baking times, the oven can
be switched off about 10minutes be-
fore the end of baking time, to make
use of the residual heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the values giv-
en in the tables assume that cooking is
started with the oven cold.
