Frequently Asked Questions - MLB5CD Flavel

How do I clean the ceramic hob?

Wipe the hob with a cloth dampened with cold water. Dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrapers. For calcium stains, use vinegar or lemon juice. Clean sugar-based spills immediately to avoid permanent damage.

What should I do if the oven is not heating?

Check that the function and temperature knobs are set correctly. Ensure the mains fuse has not tripped. If the problem persists, consult the troubleshooting section or contact an authorized service agent.

How can I replace the oven lamp?

Disconnect the appliance from the mains. Let it cool. Remove the glass cover by turning it counter-clockwise. Remove the old lamp and replace with a new 15–25 W oven lamp (heat-resistant up to 300 °C). Reinstall the cover.

4 Preparation

Tips for saving energy

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

• Use dark coloured or enamel coated cookware in the oven since the heat transmission will be better.
• While cooking your dishes, perform a preheating operation if it is advised in the user manual or cooking instructions.
• Do not open the door of the oven frequently during cooking.
• Try to cook more than one dish in the oven at the same time whenever possible. You can cook by placing two cooking vessels onto the wire shelf.
• Cook more than one dish one after another. The oven will already be hot.
• You can save energy by switching off your oven a few minutes before the end of the cooking time. Do not open the oven door.
  • Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
• Use pots/pans with cover for cooking. If there is no cover, energy consumption may increase 4 times.
• Select the burner which is suitable for the bottom size of the pot to be used. Always select the correct pot size for your dishes. Larger pots require more energy.
• Pay attention to use flat bottom pots when cooking with electric hobs. Pots with thick bottom will provide a better heat conduction. You can obtain energy savings up to 1/3.
• Vessels and pots must be compatible with the cooking zones. Bottom of the vessels or pots must not be smaller than the hotplate.

- Keep the cooking zones and bottom of the pots clean. Dirt will decrease the heat conduction between the cooking zone and bottom of the pot.

5 How to use the hob

General information about 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.

• Before frying foods, always dry them well and gently place into the hot oil. Ensure complete thawing of frozen foods before frying.
• Do not cover the vessel you use when heating oil.
• Place the pans and saucepans in a manner so that their handles are not over the hob to prevent heating of the handles. Do not place unbalanced and easily tilting vessels on the hob.
• Do not place empty vessels and saucepans on cooking zones that are switched on. They might get damaged.
• Operating a cooking zone without a vessel or saucepan on it will cause damage to the product. Turn off the cooking zones after the cooking is complete.
• As the surface of the product can be hot, do not put plastic and aluminum vessels on it. Clean any melted such materials on the surface immediately.

Such vessels should not be used to keep foods either.

• Use flat bottomed saucepans or vessels only.
- Put appropriate amount of food in saucepans and pans. Thus, you will not have to make any unnecessary cleaning by preventing the dishes from overflowing.

Do not put covers of saucepans or pans on cooking zones.

Place the saucepans in a manner so that they are centered on the cooking zone. When you want to move the saucepan onto another

cooking zone, lift and place it onto the cooking zone you want instead of sliding it.

Using the hobs

6 How to operate the oven

General information on baking, roasting and grilling

WARNING

Hot surfaces may cause burns!

Do not touch the hot surfaces of the appliance. Use oven gloves. Keep children away from the appliance.

DANGER

Risk of scalding by hot steam!

Take care when opening the oven door as steam may escape.

Tips for baking

• Use non-sticky coated appropriate metal plates or aluminum vessels or heat-resistant silicone moulds.
  • Make best use of the space on the rack.
• Place the baking mould in the middle of the shelf.
• Select the correct rack position before turning the oven or grill on. Do not change the rack position when the oven is hot.
• Keep the oven door closed.

Tips for roasting

• Treating whole chicken, turkey and large piece of meat with dressings such as lemon juice and black pepper before cooking will increase the cooking performance.
• It takes about 15 to 30 minutes longer to roast meat with bones when compared to roasting the same size of meat without bones.
  • Each centimeter of meat thickness requires approximately 4 to 5 minutes of cooking time.
• Let meat rest in the oven for about 10 minutes after the cooking time is over. The juice is better distributed all over the roast and does not run out when the meat is cut.
• Fish should be placed on the middle or lower rack in a heat-resistant plate.

Tips for grilling

• Grilling is a quick and healthy way of cooking meat, fish, vegetables and poultry. Flat pieces are particularly suitable for grilling.
  • Distribute the pieces to be grilled on the wire shelf or in the baking tray with wire shelf in such

a way that the space covered does not exceed the size of the heater.

- Slide the wire shelf or baking tray with grill into the desired level in the oven. If you are grilling on the wire shelf, slide the baking tray to the lower rack to collect fats. Add some water in the tray for easy cleaning.

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.

Fish	One level	3	200	20 ... 30
When cooking with 2 trays at the same time, place the deeper tray on the upper rack and the other one on the lower rack.* It is suggested to perform preheating for all foods.

(**) In a cooking that requires preheating, preheat at the beginning of cooking until the thermostat lamp turns off.

Tips for baking cake

• If the cake is too dry, increase the temperature by 10^ C and decrease the cooking time.
• If the cake is wet, use less liquid or lower the temperature by 10^ C.
• If the cake is too dark on top, place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature and increase the cooking time.
• If cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside use less liquid, lower the temperature and increase the cooking time.

Tips for baking pastry

• If the pastry is too dry, increase the temperature by 10^ C and decrease the cooking time. Dampen the layers of dough with a sauce composed of milk, oil, egg and yoghurt.
• If the pastry takes too long to bake, pay care that the thickness of the pastry you have prepared does not exceed the depth of the tray.

- If the upper side of the pastry gets browned, but the lower part is not cooked, make sure that the amount of sauce you have used for the pastry is not too much at the bottom of the pastry. Try to scatter the sauce equally between the dough layers and on the top of pastry for an even browning.

Cook the pastry in accordance with the mode and temperature given in the cooking table. If the bottom part is still not browned enough, place it on one lower rack next time.

Tips for cooking vegetables

• If the vegetable dish runs out of juice and gets too dry, cook it in a pan with a lid instead of a tray. Closed vessels will preserve the juice of the dish.
• If a vegetable dish does not get cooked, boil the vegetables beforehand or prepare them like canned food and put in the oven.
