4 Preparation

Tips for saving energy

The following tips will help you to use your appliance in an ecological way and to save energy:

• Use dark coloured and enamel coated trays, since the heat transmission will be better.
• While cooking your meals, perform a preheating operation if it is advised in the user manual or cooking instructions.
• During cooking, do not open the oven door frequently.
• Try to cook more than one type of meal within the oven at the same time (You can cook two different meals at the same time by locating cooking bowls on the same shelf). It will be suitable to cook more than one meal after each other. The oven will already be hot.

• Defrost frozen meals before cooking them.

- You can save energy by switching off your oven a few minutes before the end of the cooking time (The oven door should not be opened).

- Use pots/pans with lids for cooking. Without a lid, the energy consumption may be up to four times higher.

- Choose the burner/plate which is suitable to the saucepan base. Always choose the correct size of saucepans for your meals. For larger burners/plates more energy is needed.

5 How to use the hob

General information on cooking

DANGER

Risk of fire by overheated oil!

When you heat oil, do not leave it unattended.

Never try to extinguish the fire with water! When oil has caught fire, immediately cover the pot or pan with a lid. Switch off the hob if safe to do so and phone the fire service.

- Ensure handles of pans cannot accidentally be caught or knocked and do not get hot by adjacent heating zones. Avoid pans that are unstable and easily tipped. Pans that are too heavy to move easily when filled can also be a hazard. Only use flat bottomed pots or pans.

- Use pans which have sufficient capacity for the amount of food being cooked so they don't boil over and cause unnecessary cleaning. Do not place lids on the burners. Always position pans centrally over the burners. When transferring pans from one burner to another always lift the pans do not slide them.

Cooking with gas

- The size of the pan and the size of the gas flame should match each other. Adjust the gas flames so that they do not go beyond the bottom of the pan always place

the pan onto the pan support in a central position.

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.

Insert the heat shield

The heat shield is used for grilling with the oven door open. It protects the control panel and knobs against heat and soiling.

1. Open the oven door and insert the heat shield into the pins below the control panel.
