Cooking programmes
If possible, use the Automatic
programmes for cooking food.
Remove any accessories from the
oven that are not required for a
cooking process.
In general, if a range of temperatures
is given in a recipe or chart, it is best
to select the lower temperature and
to check the food after the shortest
duration.
Pre-heat the oven only if instructed to
do so in the recipe or the cooking
chart.
Avoid opening the door during a
cooking process.
Dark, matte tins are best for baking.
They absorb the heat more effectively
and transmit it to the mixture more
quickly. Shiny materials such as
stainless steel or aluminium reflect
the heat, preventing it from reaching
the food efficiently. Do not cover the
oven floor or the rack with heat-
reflective aluminium foil.
Monitor cooking durations to avoid
wasting energy when cooking food.
Set the cooking duration, or use a
food probe if you have one.
The Fan Plus function can be
used for cooking many types of food.
Because the fan distributes the heat
in the oven compartment straight
away, it allows you to use a lower
temperature than you would with
Conventional Heat. It also enables you
to cook on several shelf levels at the
same time.
Fan Grillis the best function for grilled
dishes. With Fan Grill you can use
lower temperatures than with other
grill functions which use the
maximum temperature setting.
The Eco Fan Heatfunction ensures
energy-efficient cooking thanks to
optimal utilisation of heat. Use this
function for sweet and savoury bakes
and gratins. Do not open the door
during the cooking programme.
You can use the Eco Steam cooking
function to save energy during steam
cooking. This function is suitable
mainly for cooking fish and
vegetables.
Whenever possible you should cook
several dishes at the same time.
Place them next to each other in the
oven or on different shelf levels.
Dishes which you are unable to
prepare at the same time should, if
possible, be cooked one after the
other in order to make use of existing
heat in the oven.
