• Intense steam generated during cooking may form condensed water drops on the interior and exterior of the oven and on the upper parts of the furniture due to the temperature difference. This is a normal and physical occurrence.
• The cooking temperature and time values given for foods may vary depending on the recipe and amount. For this reason, these values are given as ranges.
• Always remove unused accessories from the oven before you start cooking. Accessories that will remain in the oven may prevent your food from being cooked at the correct values.

• Metal, ceramic, and glass molds extend the cooking time and the bottom surface of pastry foods does not brown evenly.
• If you use cooking paper during cooking, a little browning may be observed on the bottom surface of the food. In this case, you may need to extend your cooking time by about 10 minutes.
• The values specified in the cooking tables are determined as a result of the tests carried out in our laboratories. Values suitable for you may differ from these values.
• Place your food on the appropriate shelf recommended on the cooking table. Refer to the bottom shelf of the oven as shelf 1.

Tips for baking cakes

• If the pastry is too dry, increase the temperature by 1 O ° C and shorten the cooking time. Wet the dough sheets with a sauce consisting of milk, oil, egg, and yogurt mixture.
• If the pastry is getting cooked slowly, make sure that the thickness of the pastry you have prepared does not overflow the tray.
• If the pastry is browned on the surface but the bottom is not cooked, make sure that the amount of sauce you will use for the pastry is not too much at the bottom of the pastry. For an even browning, try to spread the sauce evenly between the dough sheets and the pastry.
• Bake your pastry in the position and temperature appropriate to the cooking table. If the bottom is still not browned enough, place it on a bottom shelf for the next cooking.
