[. . . ] Lightly brush the wire shelf with oil and baste the food if desired. Always place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire shelf. If the heating element switches off automatically, the overheating protection was activated. The element will be reactivated after a short period of time. Circo-roasting I Use this method for particularly crispy poultry or pork with crackling. Turn large roasts after about half of the total cooking time has elapsed. Therefore, to prevent burning-on of the stains, thorough cleaning of the oven is recommended after use. With duck and goose, pierce the skin under the wings to allow excess fat to drain off. After the end of the selected roasting time and with the oven switched OFF, leave the roast in the closed oven for approx. 10 minutes. 15 Cooking Tips and Helpful Hints When cooking with Circotherm: Cakes baked in a tin get too dark at the back. Avoid blocking the air vents at the rear wall of the oven with the cake tins. Several brief periods of opening the oven door during baking (1 or 2 times, more frequently with longer roasting times) will aid in venting the steam in the oven and reduce condensation. Uneven browning of small cakes or biscuits. With very moist foods steam develops and condenses on the oven door and drips onto the floor. To save energy: Preheat only if recommended by the recipe. Dark baking tins have a higher degree of heat absorption. Residual heat: In the case of longer baking times, you can switch off the oven 5­10 minutes before the full baking time has elapsed. 16 Defrosting and Cooking Defrosting and cooking using the Circotherm v Important heating system information: For defrosting and cooking of frozen foods, use circotherm. With all frozen foods, follow the food manufacturers instructions on the package. As a rule, defrosted frozen foods (especially meats) require less cooking time than fresh products, since freezing has a pre-cooking effect. If frozen meat is placed in the oven, the defrosting time must be added to the required cooking time. Always defrost frozen poultry before cooking because the giblets must be removed. For cooking frozen fish, use the same temperatures as for fresh fish. Frozen ready-to-eat meals in aluminium dishes may be placed into the oven several at a time. Frozen vegetables (i. e. , when cooking complete meals) should be cooked in a covered pot together with the roast. Gentle defrosting: k Recommended for delicate pastries only (i. e. , whipped-cream gateaus). Dependent on size and type of the baked goods, defrost 25 ­ 45 minutes, take out of the oven and allow to stand 30 ­ 45 minutes. With smaller amounts (pastries), the defrosting time is reduced to 15 ­ 20 minutes and the subsequent standing time to 10 ­ 15 minutes. [. . . ] This may be accomplished by tripping the automatic fuse or by removing the fuse from the fuse box that controls your flat or apartment. Problem There is a general failure of all electrical functions, i. e. , the control lamps have suddenly ceased to function. Liquids or thin cake mixes are distributed at a visibly uneven thickness.
