Ready meals
Here, you will find the ideal settings for preparing chilled
and frozen meals.
Notes
■ The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of
the food. Pre-browning and irregularities are
sometimes already present on the raw product.
■ Do not use frozen products that are covered with a
thick layer of ice. Remove any ice on the food.
■ Distribute foods that are in the form of separate
pieces, such as bread rolls and potato products, so
that they are spread out flat and evenly on the
accessory. Leave a little space between the
individual pieces.
■ Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.
Shelf positions
Use the shelf positions indicated.
Baking on one level
When baking on one level, use the following shelf
positions:
■ Tall baked items: Position 2
■ Flat baked items: Position 3
Baking on two levels
Use CircoTherm hot air. Items that are placed in the
oven on baking trays or in baking tins/dishes at the
same time will not necessarily be ready at the same
time.
■ Universal pan: Position 3
Baking tray: Position 1
Recommended setting values
The table lists the optimal heating function for various
types of food.The temperature and cooking time
depend on the amount and consistency of the dough/
mixture. Settings ranges are specified for this reason.
Try using the lower values to start with. A lower
temperature will result in more even browning. You can
use a higher setting next time if necessary.
