Always slide the baking tray or the universal pan in carefully as
far as it will go and make sure that the sloping edge is facing
the appliance door.
Use the universal pan if you are baking moist cakes, so that the
cooking compartment does not get dirty.
Baking table for basic doughs/cake mixtures
The values in the table are guidelines and apply to enamelled
baking trays and dark baking tins. The values may vary
depending on the type and amount of dough/mixture and on
the baking tin.
The values for bread dough apply to both dough placed on a
tray and dough placed in a loaf tin.
We recommend that you set the lower of the specified
temperatures the first time. Lower temperatures will generally
allow more even browning.
If you are baking according to your own recipe, use similar
recipes in the table as a guide.
Observe the notes in the table about preheating.
