USEFUL TIPS

HOW TO READ THE COOKING TABLE
The table lists the best functions, accessories and levels to use to cook various types of food. Cooking times start from the moment food is placed in the oven, excluding preheating (where required). Cooking temperatures and times are approximate and depend on the amount of food and the type of accessory used. Use the lowest recommended settings to begin with and, if the food is not cooked enough, then switch to higher settings. Use the accessories supplied and preferably dark-coloured metal cake tins and baking trays. You can also use Pyrex or stoneware pans and accessories, but bear in mind that cooking times will be slightly longer.

COOKING DIFFERENT FOODS AT THE SAME TIME

• The “Convection Bake” function enables you to cook different foods (such as fish and vegetables) on different shelves at the same time. Switch shelves two-thirds of the way through cooking, if necessary.
• Remove the food that requires a shorter cooking time and leave the food that requires a longer cooking time in the oven.

BREAD AUTO FUNCTION

• For best results you should carefully follow the instructions, using the recipe for mixing 1000 g of dough: 600 g of flour, 360 g of water, 11 g of salt, and 25 g of fresh yeast (or two packets of yeast powder).
• For optimal rising, allow about 90 minutes at room temperature.
• Put the dough into the (cold) oven, pour 100 cc of cold drinking water onto the bottom of the oven and activate the “Bread Auto” function. After cooking, leave the dough to stand on a wire shelf until completely cooled.
