Gentle bake
Gentle Bake is suitable for small
amounts, e.g. frozen pizzas, bake-off
rolls, biscuits and for meat dishes and
roasts. The optimal use of residual heat
enables savings of up to 30% energy to
be made compared to cooking with a
standard oven function with comparat-
ively good cooking results.
This function is not suitable for larger
amounts of food such as sponge cakes
and fresh fruit cake where the cake mix
needs to be thoroughly baked through-
out. No energy savings would be
achieved.
The temperature can be set between
100 and 250°C.
For optimum results keep the door
shut whilst cooking.
