Helpful hints and tips • The appliance has five shelf levels. Count the shelf levels from the bottom of the appliance floor. • The appliance has a special system which circulates the air and constantly recycles the steam. With this system you can cook in a steamy environment and keep the food soft inside and crusty outside. It decreases the cooking time and energy consumption to a minimum. • Moisture can condense in the appliance or on the door glass panels. This is normal. Always stand back from the appliance when you open the appliance door while cooking. To decrease the condensation, operate the appliance for 10 minutes before cooking. • Clean the moisture after each use of the appliance. • Do not put the objects directly on the appliance floor and do not put aluminium foil on the components when you cook. This can change the baking results and cause damage to the enamel. Baking cakes • Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the set cooking time is up. Baking and roasting table • If you use two baking trays at the same time, keep one empty level between them. Cooking meat and fish • Use a deep pan for very fatty food to prevent the oven from stains that can be permanent. • Leave the meat for approximately 15 minutes before carving so that the juice does not seep out. • To prevent too much smoke in the oven during roasting, add some water into the deep pan. To prevent the smoke condensation, add water each time after it dries up. Cooking times Cooking times depend on the type of food, its consistency, and volume. Initially, monitor the performance when you cook. Find the best settings (heat setting, cooking time, etc.) for your cookware, recipes and quantities when you use this appliance.
