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.
TOP OVEN
The top oven is smaller than the main oven. It has 3
shelf positions. Use it to cook smaller quantities of
food. It is especially good for baking fruitcakes,
cookies, savoury flans or quiche.
MAIN OVEN
The main oven is particularly suitable for cooking
larger quantities of food.
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.
