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.11.10 Tips on bakingBaking resultsPossible causeRemedyThe bottom of the cake is not browned sufficiently.The shelf position is incor- rect.Put the cake on a lower shelf.The cake sinks and becomes soggy, lumpy or streaky.The oven temperature is too high.The next time you bake, set a slightly lower oven temper- ature.The cake sinks and becomes soggy, lumpy or streaky.The baking time is too short.Set a longer baking time.
