General information
• Always count the shelf positions from the bottom upwards.
• Insert baking sheets with the bevelled edge to the front!
• Always place cake tins in the middle of the shelf.
• You can also bake with two tins at the same time using conventional
O or hot air H . In this case, place the cake tins side by side on the
shelf. The cooking time is increased, but only slightly.
Notes on the baking tables
In the tables you will find information on temperatures, cooking times
and shelf positions for a selection of dishes.
• Ranges are given for the temperature and cooking time since these
are dependent on the mixture, quantity and cake tin used.
• When using 2 baking trays the lower baking tray should remain in the
oven for an extra 5-10 minutes if necessary.
• Items that might drip (e.g., pizzas, fruit flans) should only be prepared
on one level.
• When using for the first time, we recommend setting the lower tem-
perature, and only if necessary, e.g. if increased browning is required
or the cooking time is too long, select a higher temperature.
• If you cannot find specific information for one of your own recipes,
use information given in a similar recipe for guidance.
• Variations in the height of the item to be baked can lead to different
degrees of browning at the start of baking. In this case please do not
change the temperature setting.
Differences in the degree of browning will balance out during baking.

Switch off the oven 10-15 minutes before the end of the cooking time
to make use of the residual heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the information in the tables assumes starting
with a cold oven.
