The temperature and baking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the recipes, quality quantity of the ingredients used.

ZANUSSI ZCV550G1XA - Oven - Helpful hints and tips - 3

Caution! Use a Deep grill roasting pan for very moist cakes. Fruit juices can cause permanent s on the enamel.

Top oven

The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It has 3 shelf levels. Use is to cook smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results when used to cook fruitcakes, sweets and savoury flants or quiche.

Main oven

The main oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food.

Baking

General instructions

- Your new oven may bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. Adapt your usual settings

(temperature, cooking times) and shelf levels to the values in the tables.

- With longer baking times, the oven can be switched off about 10 minutes before the end of baking time, to use the residual heat.

When you use frozen food, the trays in the oven can twist during baking. When the trays get cold again, the distortion will be gone.

How to use the Baking Tables

  • We recommend to use the lower temperature the first time.
  • If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the one that is almost the same.
  • Baking time can be extended by 10–15 minutes, if you bake cakes on more than one level.
  • Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equally at first. If this occurs, do not change the temperature setting. The differences equalize during the baking procedure.
