1. Use dark coloured or enamel coated cookware in the oven since the heat
transmission will be better.
2. While cooking your dishes, perform a preheating operation if it is advised in the
user manual or cooking instructions.
3. Do not open the door of the oven frequently during cooking.
4. Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the same time, whenever possible .
You can cook by placing two cooking vessels onto the wire grill.
5. Cook more than one dish one after another. The oven will already be hot.
6. You can save energy by switching off your oven a few minutes before the cooking
time. Do not open the oven door.
7. Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
HOW TO OPERATE THE OVEN
General information on baking, roasting and grilling
Risk of scalding by hot steam! Take care when opening the oven door as steam may
escape.
TIPS FOR BAKING
1. Use non-stick coated appropriate metal plates or aluminum containers or heat-
resistant silicone moulds.
2. Make best use of the space on the rack.
3. It is recommended to place the baking mould in the middle of the rack.
4. Keep the oven door closed.
TIPS FOR ROASTING
1. Seasoning with lemon juice and black pepper will improve the cooking
performance when cooking a whole chicken, turkey or a large piece of meat.
2. Meat with bones takes about 15 to 30 minutes longer before it is cooked than a
roast of the same size without bones.
3. You should calculate about 4 to 5minutes cooking time per centimeter height of
the meat.
4. Let meat rest in the oven for about 10 minutes after the cooking time. The juice is
better distributed all over the roast and does not run out when the meat is cut.
