Pastry is too dark on top   

Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time.   

Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside 

Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the cooking time. 

The Pastry sticks to the pan   

Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of flour or use greaseproof paper. 

I used more than one level (in the function “ventilated oven ”) and they are not all at the same cooking 

point

Use a lower temperature setting .It is not necessary to remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking Pizza 

For best results when cooking pizza ,use the“

Pizza Mode

”    : 

·

Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes ;

·

Use a light aluminum pizza pan ,placing it on the grid supplied with the oven .If the dripping pan is used, this

will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a crispy crust; 

·

Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking ;

·

  If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three of four ),we recommend you add the mozzarella cheese on top halfway

through the cooking process . 

·

When cooking pizza on two racks ,use the 2nd and 4th with a temperature of 220

  and place the pizzas in

the oven after having preheated it for at least 10 minutes . 

Cooking Fish and Meat 

When cooking white meat ,fowl and fish ,use temperature setting from 180

to 200

.

For red meat that should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside ,it is a good idea to start 

with a high temperature setting (200

-220

)for a short time ,then turn the oven down afterwards.   

In general, the larger the roast, the lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the center of the grid and 

place the dripping pan beneath it to catch the fat. 

Make sure that the grid is inserted so that it is in the center of the oven .If you would like to increase the amount 

of heat from below, use the low rack heights .For savory roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat 

with lard or bacon on the top.
