When grilling meat or fish, spread a little oil on them and always place them on the oven grid. The shelf level depends on the thinckness of the food. Always place the dripping pan at the lowest level (fig. 4), with some water in it, to avoid smoke and unpleasant smells. Hints and Tips The temperatures inside the oven can reach 250°C. Always ensure that you are using oven proof baking trays, oven dishes, etc. Do not place pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil directly on the base of the oven. This could cause a heat build-up which could affect the performance of the oven and damage the oven enamel. Carefully supervise cookings with fats or oil, since these types of foodstuff can result in a fire, if overheated. For the same reason, be careful when placing or removing food in the oven, not to let any fat or oil fall on the oven base. If this happens, carefully clean the oven to avoid unpleasant smells or smoke. Hints and Tips on baking Cakes usually need a medium temperature cooking, between 150 and 200 °C. A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) is recommeded when cooking cakes or baking. Once the cooking has been started, keep the oven door closed during all the cooking time, and check the cooking results through the oven door glass. Hints and Tips on grilling If you need to grill meat or fish, place them directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil on them. In the grill function, heat comes only from the top element. Therefore, you need to adjust the cooking level depending on meat or fish's thickness. Always remember to place the dripping pan in the lower position with some water in it. Hints and Tips on Cooking Fish and Meat You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the dripping pan in the first position from the bottom with some water in it. The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base. White meat, poultry and fish in general, need a medium temperature cooking (between 150 and 175 °C). If you need to cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a higher temperature (between 200 and 250 °C) for a short time is recommended. 5 Conventional cooking WEIGHT (GR. ) TYPE OF DISH Cooking Tables Conventional Cooking Level Cakes Whipped up kneading Leavened kneading Shortbread dough Butter-milk cheese cake Apple cake Strudel Jam-tart Small cakes Biscuits Meringues Bread and Pizza White bread Rye bread Bread rolls Pizza Flans Pasta flan Vegetable flan Quiches Lasagne Meat Beef Pork Veal English roast beef Lamb Chicken Turkey Duck Goose Hare Fish Whole Fillets 2 2 2 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 4 3 2 1 Cooking time minutes 45 ~ 60 20 ~ 35 20 ~ 30 60 ~ 80 40 ~ 60 60 ~ 80 45 ~ 60 15 ~ 25 10 ~ 20 90 ~ 120 45 ~ 60 30 ~ 45 20 ~ 35 20 ~ 35 40 ~ 50 45 ~ 60 35 ~ 45 45 ~ 60 50 ~ 70 100 ~ 130 90 ~ 120 50 ~ 70 110 ~ 130 60 ~ 80 210 ~ 240 120 ~ 150 150 ~ 200 60 ~ 80 40 ~ 60 30 ~ 40 NOTES temp. °C 180 180 180 175 180 175 180 180 180 100 200 200 200 220 200 200 200 200 200 200 200 220 200 200 200 175 175 200 200 200 1000 500 500 250 1 piece In bread pan 8 rolls In baking pan 1000 1200 1000 1500 1200 1000 4000 1500 3000 1200 1000 800 On grid On grid On grid On grid Leg Whole Whole Whole Whole Cut in pieces 2 fishes 4 fillets Remarks: Cooking times do not include preheating, so we advise you, particularly for cakes, pizzas and bread, to preheat the oven for approximately 10 minutes.
