How to operate the oven

General information on baking,
roasting and grilling
DANGER
Risk of scalding by hot steam!
Take care when opening the oven
door as steam may escape.
Tips for baking
• Use non-stick coated appropriate
metal plates or aluminum
containers or heat-resistant
silicone moulds.
• Make best use of the space on the
rack.
• It is recommended to place the
baking mould in the middle of the
rack.
• Select the correct shelf position
before turning the oven or grill on -
don't move oven shelves when hot.
• Keep the oven door closed.
Tips for roasting
• Seasoning with lemon juice and
black pepper will improve the
cooking performance when
cooking a whole chicken, turkey or
a large piece of meat.
• Meat with bones takes about 15 to
30 minutes longer before it is
cooked than a roast of the same
size without bones.
• You should calculate about 4 to 5
minutes cooking time per
centimeter height of the meat.
• 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.
• Fish in a fire-resistant dish should
be placed on the rack at the
medium or lower level.
Tips for grilling
Grilling is ideal for cooking meat, fish
and poultry and will achieve a nice
brown surface without it drying out to
much. Flat pieces, meat skewers and
sausages are particularly suited for
grilling as are vegetables with a high
water content such as tomatoes and
onions.
• Distribute the pieces to be grilled
on the wire shelf.
• If the grilling is on the wire shelf,
locate a dripping pan under it in
order to collect the fat.
• Add some water in the dripping
pan for easy cleaning.
NOTICE
Fire danger due to food which is
unsuitable for grilling!
Only use food for grilling which is
suitable for intensive grilling heat.
Do not place the food too far in the
back of the grill. This is the hottest
area and fat food may catch fire.
