[. . . ] Always place your own cooking containers on the wire shelf. If you are using the supplied baking tray, remove the wire shelf. • Preheating will shorten the cooking time. Place the dish into the oven only when the selected temperature has been reached, i. e. When the control lamp goes off for the first time. Cooking / baking with convection Cooking / baking with hot air is useful when you wish to bake on several shelves simultaneously. This mode is also appropriate for large sponge cakes and fruit cakes (in this case, bake on a single level only). • The temperature is normally set lower than when baking with the upper/lower heater combination (see baking table). • When baking with several baking trays simultaneously, baking time for each tray can vary. You may have to remove one of the trays earlier (normally, this would be the uppermost tray). • When using several baking trays simultaneously, there may be a significant amount of vapour in the oven, resulting in condensation on the oven door. 18 Tips on baking Is the cake cooked?At the end of the cooking time, insert a metal skewer into the highest point of the cake and then withdraw it. Do not place the deep tray in the fourth shelf position. The value printed in bold in the temperature table indicates the most appropriate operating mode for a particular type of food. 23 Grilling and browning • Take care when grilling meat. Always use oven gloves when removing the food and accessories after grilling as the oven and accessories will be very hot. • Check the grilling meat regularly. • Do not allow children near the grill. • Grilling is recommended for meat pieces and fish (steak, chops, salmon fillets, etc. ) toasting bread and browning gratins. Some tips on using the grill function • When using the grill, oven door should always be closed. • The cooking chart for grilling indicates recommended temperature, shelf position, and cooking time. Since cooking time depends strongly on the type, quantity, weight, and quality of meat, it may have to be adjusted. • It is recommended to preheat the grill. • Place thin slices of meat on the wire shelf and place it into the fourth shelf position. • Insert a baking tray, which will serve as a drip tray in this case, into the first or second shelf position to collect the dripping fat and meat juices.
