ENERGY SAVING TIPS

• Only preheat the oven if specified in the cooking table or your recipe. Use dark lacquered or enamelled baking trays as they absorb heat better. Food requiring prolonged cooking will continue to cook even once the oven is switched off.
• Standard cycle (PYRO): which is suitable for cleaning a very dirty oven. Energy-saving cycle (PYRO EXPRESS/ECO) – only in some models -: which consumes approximately 25% less energy than the standard cycle. Select it at regular intervals (after cooking meat on 2 or 3 consecutive occasions).
• Make sure the oven door is closed completely when the appliance is turned on and keep it closed as much as possible while baking.
• Cut the food into small, equally-sized pieces to reduce cooking time and save energy.
• When the cooking time is long, over 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to the lowest setting during the last phase (3-10 minutes), based on the overall cooking time. The residual heat inside the oven will continue cooking the food.
