introduction
In the tables on page 19 inclusive you will find information
about cooking times, temperatures and shelf heights. The
times and temperatures in the tables are averages. If
necessary, you can use slightly different values in order to
cook more than one dish at the same time.
energy-conscious use of the oven
Open the oven door as little as possible.
Cook dishes with approximately the same cooking
temperatures (apple tart and an oven dish, for example) at
the same time on the same grid shelf, or one above the other
with the turbo function. You can also braise meat at the same
time.
Cook several dishes one after the other (an oven dish after a
cake, for example). The cooking time for the second dish can
often be shortened by 10 minutes because there is so much
heat still in the oven.
Thanks to the oven insulation, dishes with a longer cooking
time (more than an hour) can finish cooking using the residual
heat in the oven. Switch the oven off 10 minutes earlier than
is indicated, but leave the door shut.
preheating
Preheating is not generally necessary, except for dishes with
a cooking time of less than 30 minutes or when the recipe
indicates it. You can warm the oven extra quickly using the
special preheating setting.
empty oven
Take everything that is not required for cooking out of the
oven.
cooling down
Switch the oven off before taking the cooked dish out of it.
Close the oven door and let the oven cool down.
