8.2 Cooking recommendations
Your oven may bake or roast differently
to the oven you had before. The below
tables provide you with the standard
settings for temperature, cooking time
and shelf position.
If you cannot find the settings for a
special recipe, look for the similar one.
8.3 Baking
• Use the lower temperature the first
time.
• You can extend baking times by 10 –
15 minutes if you bake cakes on more
than one shelf position.
• Cakes and pastries at different
heights do not always brown equally.
There is no need to change the
temperature setting if an unequal
browning occurs. The differences
equalize during baking.
• Trays in the oven can twist during
baking. When the trays become cold
again, the distortions disappear.
