Instructions for baking
• You may place any heat resistant baking
pan onto the lower grill rack. Because of
the air circulation the diameter should be of
maximum 26 cm.
• If you want to bake a very juicy cake without
a crust, attach aluminum foil over the baking
pan. Remove the foil shortly before the cake
is done, so the top of the cake may slightly
dry up.
• Cakes and other cookies are baked a little bit
faster than in other common ovens.
• Place frozen pizza directly on the upper grill
rack.
Instructions for toasting
• You may toast bread and snacks without
preheating the oven.
• Place the bakery products on one of the grill
racks.
• Slightly moisten bread rolls that are from the
previous day. This way they will crisp up nicely.
• You may also warm up older snacks such
as crackers, chips or cookies. Bake them at
maximum heat for a few minutes only, so they
will become crispy again.
Instructions for defrosting
• The convection oven provides for a more
evenly defrosting process than a microwave.
• Set the temperature control to DEFROST.
Check the food every 5 to 10 minutes.
• In order to cook frozen food, lower the
specied temperature by 20°C. The cooking
time in the convection oven is also 30 - 50 %
shorter (e.g. 10 to 15 minutes instead of 20
minutes).
Instructions for reheating
Use lower temperatures when reheating in order
not to burn your food. Check the food every 5 to
10 minutes.
