Refer to Safety chapters.The temperature and baking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the recipes and the quality and quantity of the ingredients used.12.1 Advice for special heating functions of the ovenKeep Warm Use this function if you want to keep food warm. The temperature regulates itself automatically to 80 °C. Plate Warming For warming plates and dishes. Distribute plates and dishes evenly on the wire shelf. Move stacks around after half of the warming time (swap top and bottom). The automatic temperature is 70 °C. Recommended shelf position: 3. Dough Proving You can use this automatic function with any recipe for yeast dough you like. It gives you a good atmosphere for rising. Put the dough into a dish that is big enough for rising and cover it with a wet towel or plastic foil. Insert a wire shelf on the first shelf position and put the dish in. Close the door and set the function: Dough Proving. Set the necessary time.12.2 Baking • Your oven may bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. Adapt your usual settings (temperature, cooking times) and shelf positions to the values in the tables. • The manufacturer recommends that you use the lower temperature the first time. • If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the one that is almost the same. • You can extend baking times by 10 – 15 minutes if you bake cakes on morethan one shelf position. • Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equallyat first. If this occurs, do not change the temperature setting. The differences equalize during the baking procedure. • With longer baking times, you can deactivate the oven approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time and then use the residual heat. When you cook frozen food, the trays in the oven can twist during baking. Whenthe trays become cold again, the distortions are gone. ENGLISH23

This keeps the meat more succulent. • All types of meat that can be browned or have crackling can be roasted inthe roasting tin without the lid. • We recommend that you cook meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above inthe appliance.• To prevent the meat juices or fat from burning onto the pan, put some liquid into the deep pan. • If necessary, turn the roast (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time). • Baste large roasts and poultry with their juices several times during roasting. This gives better roasting results. • You can deactivate the appliance approximately 10 minutes before theend of the roasting time, and use the residual heat.12.10 Roasting tables BeefFoodFunctionQuantity (kg)Power (Watts)Tempera- ture (°C)Time (min)Shelf posi- tionPot roastConven- tional Cooking1 - 1.520023060 - 801 Pork FoodFunc- tionQuantity (kg)Power (Watts)Tempera- ture (°C)Time (min)Shelf po- sitionShoulder, neck, ham jointTurbo Grilling1 - 1.5200160 - 18050 - 701ENGLISH29
