Tips
Cover dishes which are to be cooked
in their own juice and/or steam, e.g.
potatoes or vegetables, so that they do
not dry out. If you do not have a lid, use
aluminium foil or damp cooking
parchment.
Cook without a lid when a crusty finish
or topping is required, e.g. for meat or
au gratin dishes.
You can also stack one pot on top of
another . Invert the lid of the bottom pot
and place the top pot on it. Place any
dish which needs to be browned on
top.
Cooking ready-meals
The Rapid heat-up Ä function can be
used on its own for cooking
ready-meals (see chart) such as pizza,
lasagne, garlic bread, etc.
^ Select Rapid heat-up Ä.
^ Select a temperature.
^ When the temperature indicator light
y goes out, place the dish in the
pre-heated oven.
You do not need to select another
function for cooking.
Observe recommended temperatures,
cooking times and position in the oven
given on the manufacturer’s packaging.
Only use one level of the oven when
cooking ready-meals using this
function. If more than one shelf level
is required, select Fan plus Y.
Cook frozen desserts and pizza on
baking paper on the rack rather than
on a baking tray or in the grill pan.
Cooking large frozen items on a
baking tray or in the grill pan can
cause the metal to distort. This
distortion would increase with each
subsequent use.
Frozen foods such as oven chips or
croquette potatoes can, however, be
cooked on the baking tray or in the
grill pan.
