- Heat thus reaches all parts of the oven evenly
and fast and this means that you can simulta-
neously cook different types of foods positioned
on the various oven shelves . Fan cooking
ensures rapid elimination of moisture and the
dryer oven environment stops the different
aromas and flavours from being transmitted
from one food to another.
- The possibility of cooking on several shelf
heights means that you can cook several differ-
ent dishes at the same time and up to three tins
of biscuits and mini pizzas to be eaten
immediately or subsequently deep frozen.
- Naturally the oven can also be used for
cooking on just one shelf. In this case you
should use the lowest set of runners so that
you can keep an eye on progress more easily.
- In addition, the oven is particularly
recommended for sterilizing preserves,
cooking home-made fruit in syrup, and for
drying mushrooms or fruit.
Defrosting
The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the
air, at room temperature, inside the oven.
Ensure the thermostat control knob is in the
OFF position.
Hints and Tips
On baking:
Cakes and pastries usually require a medium
temperature (150°C-200°C) and therefore it is
necessary to preheat the oven for about 10
minutes.
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the baking
time has elapsed.
Shortcrust pastry is baked in a springform tin or on
a tray for up to 2/3 of the baking time and then
garnished before being fully baked. This further
baking time depends on the type and amount of
topping or filling. Sponge mixtures must separate
40
with difficulty from the spoon. The baking time would
be unnecessarily extended by too much liquid.
If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits are
inserted into the oven at the same time, a shelf
level must be left free between the trays.
If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits are
inserted into the oven at the same time, the trays
must be swapped and turned around after about
2/3 of the baking time.
On Roasting:
Do not roast joints smaller than 1 kg. Smaller pieces
could dry out when roasting. Dark meat, which is
to be well done on the outside but remain medium
or rare inside, must be roasted at a higher tem-
perature (200°C-230°C MAX).
White meat, poultry and fish, on the other hand,
require a lower temperature (150°C-175°C). The
ingredients for a sauce or gravy should only be
added to the roasting pan right at the beginning if
the cooking time is short. Otherwise add them in
the last half hour.
You can use a spoon to test whether the meat is
cooked: if it cannot be depressed, it is cooked
through. Roast beef and fillet, which is to remain
pink inside, must be roasted at a higher tempera-
ture in a shorter time.
If cooking meat directly on the oven shelf, insert
the roasting pan in the shelf level below to catch
the juices.
Leave the joint to stand for at least 15 minutes, so
that the meat juices do not run out.
To reduce the build up of smoke in the oven, it is
recommended to pour a little water in the roasting
pan. To prevent condensation forming, add water
several times. The plates can be kept warm in the
oven at minimum temperature until serving.
Caution!
Do not line the oven with aluminium
foil and do not place a roasting pan
