HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
10.1 Cooking recommendations
The temperature and cooking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the
recipes and the quality and quantity of the ingredients used.
Your oven may bake or roast differently to the oven you had before. The tables below
show recommended settings for temperature, cooking time and shelf position for specific
types of the food.
If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the similar one.
ENGLISH 15
background
10.2 Microwave
recommendations
Let's cook!
Place the food on a plate on the bottom of the cavity.
Turn or stir the food halfway through the defrosting and cooking time.
Stir liquid dishes from time to time.
Stir the food before serving.
Cover the food for cooking and reheating.
Put the spoon to the bottle or glass when heating drinks to ensure better heat distribu-
tion.
Put the food into the oven without packaging. The packaged ready meals can be put into
the oven only when the packaging is microwave safe (check information on the packag-
ing).
Microwave cooking
Microwave defrosting
Cook food covered. If you want to keep a
crust cook food without a cover.
Do not overcook the dishes by setting the
power and time too high. The food can dry
out, burn or cause fire.
Do not use the oven to cook eggs or snails
in their shells, because they can burst.
Pierce the yolk of fried egg before reheating
it.
Pierce food with skin or peel several times
before cooking.
Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
After you turn off the oven, take the food
out and let it stand for a few minutes.
Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small
upturned plate with a container below it, or
on a defrosting rack or plastic sieve so that
the defrosting liquid can leak out.
Remove defrosted pieces subsequently.
To cook fruit and vegetables without de-
frosting them first, you can use a higher mi-
crowave power.

10.4 Baking
For the first baking, use the lower
temperature.
You can extend the baking time by 10 –
15 minutes if you bake cakes on more
than one shelf position.
Cakes and pastries at different heights
do not always brown equally. There is no
need to change the temperature setting
if an unequal browning occurs. The
differences equalize during baking.
Trays in the oven can distort during
baking. When the trays are cold again,
the distortions disappear.

high.
Next time set slightly lower oven
temperature.
The oven temperature is too
high and the baking time is
too short.
Next time set a longer baking
time and lower oven temperature.
The cake is too dry. The oven temperature is too
low.

Use heat-resistant ovenware.
Roast lean meat covered (you can use
aluminium foil).
Roast large meat joints directly in the tray
or on the wire shelf placed above the

Put some water in the tray to prevent
dripping fat from burning.
Turn the roast after 1/2 - 2/3 of the

Roast meat and
fish in large pieces (1 kg
or more).
Baste meat joints with their own juice
several times during roasting.

13. ENERGY EFFICIENCY
13.1 Energy saving
The oven has features which
help you save energy during
everyday cooking.
Make sure that the oven door is closed
when the oven operates. Do not open
the oven door too often during cooking.
Keep the door gasket clean and make
sure it is well fixed in its position.
Use metal cookware to improve energy
saving (only when you use a non-
microwave function).
When possible, do not preheat the oven
before cooking.
Keep breaks between baking as short as
possible when you prepare a few dishes
at one time.
Cooking with fan
When possible, use the cooking
functions with fan to save energy.
Residual heat
If a programme with the Duration or End
Time selection is activated and the
cooking time is longer than 30 min, the
heating elements automatically turn off
earlier in some oven functions.
The fan and lamp continue to operate.
When you turn off the oven, the display
shows the residual heat. You can use that
heat to keep the food warm.
When the cooking duration is longer
than 30 min, reduce the oven
temperature to minimum 3 - 10 min
before the end of cooking. The residual
heat inside the oven will continue to
cook.
Use the residual heat to warm up other
dishes.
Keep food warm
Choose the lowest possible temperature
setting to use residual heat and keep a
meal warm. The residual heat indicator or
temperature appears on the display.
