How to read the cooking table
The table indicates the best function to use for any given food, to be cooked on one or more shelves at the
same time. Cooking times start from the moment food is placed in the oven, excluding pre-heating (where
required). Cooking temperatures and times are purely for guidance and will depend on the amount of food
and type of accessory used. Use the lowest recommended values to begin with and, if the food is not
cooked enough, then move on to higher values. Use the accessories supplied and preferably dark coloured
metal cake tins and oven trays. You can also use pans and accessories in pyrex or stoneware, but bear in
mind that cooking times will be slightly longer. To obtain best results, carefully follow the advice given
in the cooking table for the choice of accessories (supplied) to be placed on the various shelves.
Cooking different foods at the same time
Using the “FORCED AIR” function, you can cook different foods which require the same cooking
temperature at the same time (for example: fish and vegetables), using different shelves. Remove the food
which requires less cooking time and leave food which requires longer cooking time in the oven.
Desserts
- Cook delicate desserts with the conventional function on one shelf only. Use dark coloured metal
cake tins and always position them on the wire shelf supplied. To cook on more than one shelf, select
the forced air function and stagger the position of the cake tins on the shelves, aiding optimum
circulation of the hot air.
- To check whether a raising cake is cooked, insert a wooden toothpick into the centre of the cake.
If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
- If using non-stick cake tins, do not butter the edges as the cake may not rise evenly around the edges.
- If the cake “sinks” during cooking, set a lower temperature the next time, perhaps reducing the
amount of liquid in the mixture and mixing more gently.
- For sweets with moist fillings (cheesecake or fruit pies) use the “CONVECTION BAKE” function. If the
base of the cake is soggy, lower the shelf and sprinkle the bottom of the cake with breadcrumbs or
biscuit crumbs before adding the filling.

- Use any kind of oven tray or pyrex dish suited to the size of the piece of meat being cooked. For roast
joints, it is best to add some stock to the bottom of the pan, basting the meat during cooking for
added flavour. When the roast is ready, let it rest in the oven for another 10-15 minutes, or wrap it in
aluminium foil.
- When you want to grill meat, choose cuts with an even thickness all over in order to achieve uniform
cooking results. Very thick pieces of meat require longer cooking times. To prevent the meat from
burning on the outside, lower the position of the wire shelf, keeping the food farther away from the
grill. Turn the meat two thirds of the way through cooking.
To collect the cooking juices it is advisable to place a drip-tray with half a litre of water directly under the
grill on which the meat is placed. Top-up when necessary.
Pizza
Lightly grease the trays to ensure the pizza has a crispy base. Scatter the mozzarella over the pizza two
thirds of the way through cooking.
Dough proving function
It is always best to cover the dough with a damp cloth before placing it in the oven. Dough proving time
with this function is reduced by approximately one third compared to proving at room temperature
(20-25°C). Proving time for a 1 Kg batch of pizza dough is around one hour.
Cooking in Induction Mode
- Always position the cooking vessel in the centre of the induction plate to ensure uniform cooking
heat.
- The induction plate may be pulled out to check or stir the food and the door can be kept open during
this operation.
- It is advisable to use baking parchment for any meat or fish dishes because, as well as guaranteeing
optimum cooking results, it also allows better and faster cleaning of the induction plate, especially
when sauces are used.
RECOMMENDED USE AND TIPS
EN16
- When using the roast Meat and whole roast Chicken functions, the meat does not need to be turned
over.
- For the “Roast beef” function: after cooking for 15 minutes it is recommended that the meat is
turned to achieve even surface browning. When the beef is cooked to your liking take it out of
the oven and leave to rest.
- For fruit flans and other delicate dishes, it is advisable to prick the pastry case before filling it to avoid
air bubbles forming and, after cooking, let the food cool down inside the cooking vessel.
- Pizza toppings should be added based on the height of the dough base and the quantity of sauce
used.
- Pizzas with very thin bases and only light toppings can be cooked cold; otherwise it is advisable to
consider the most suitable time to add the topping, half way through or at the end of the cooking
time.
- For delicate preparations such as cakes, it is advisable to let the cooking vessel cool down before
inserting the food if it has just been used to prepare another dish.
- Consecutive cooking may be done for larger dishes (for example: pizzas, roasts, etc.).
- For roast vegetables or small pieces of meat it is advisable to stir the food during cooking in order to
ensure uniform browning. The weight indicated for the category refers to a single piece not the total
weight (e.g. several 600gr pieces may be cooked at once in the 0.6-0.8 Kg category).
