Put some water in the tray to prevent
dripping fat from burning.
Turn the roast after 1/2 - 2/3 of the
cooking time.
Roast meat and fish in large pieces (1 kg
or more).

Make sure that the oven door is closed
properly when the oven operates. Do not
open the door too often during cooking.
Keep the door gasket clean and make

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
When the cooking duration is longer
than 30 minutes, reduce the oven
temperature to minimum 3 - 10 minutes
before the end of cooking. The residual

cook.
Use the residual heat to warm up other
dishes.
