6. Tips for baking, roasting and grilling in the oven
WARNING! Be very careful when frying, because oil and fat heat up
very fast especially when operating a high power level. Extremely hot oil
and fat inflame spontaneously and represent a serious fire risk.
WARNING! NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off
the appliance and then cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.
CAUTION! The interior parts of the appliance become extremely hot.
Do not touch any parts inside the appliance if you handle your cookware.
RISK OF BURNS!
CAUTION! Be careful if you open the door. Do not get in contact with
the hot parts of the oven or the steam, which will escape the oven. RISK
OF BURNS! RISK OF SCALDING!
CAUTION! Cooking utensils may become hot because of the heat
transferred by the heated food. Potholders or oven gloves may be needed
to handle such utensils.
6.1 Tips for baking and roasting
❖ We recommend to use the supplied baking tray provided with your appliance.
❖ It is also possible to bake in cake tins and trays bought somewhere else. For
baking it is better to use black trays which conduct heat better and shorten
the baking time.
❖ Shapes and trays with bright or shiny surfaces are not recommended when using
the conventional heating method (top and bottom heaters). The use of such tins
can result in under-cooking the base of cakes.
❖ Before you take a cake out of the oven, check that it is ready using a wooden stick
(when the cake is ready the stick should come out dry and clean after having been
inserted in the cake).
❖ When switching off the oven leave the cake inside for about 5 minutes.
❖ Cook meat with a weight of more than 1 kg in the oven. Cook smaller pieces of
food on the hob.
❖ Use oven-proof cookware only. Check that their handles also are oven-proof.
❖ When you cook meat on a grilling grate, insert a drip tray with a small amount of
water in the oven (minimum rack height).
❖ Turn over meat at least once. Pour hot gravy or hot salted water over the meat.
