Z = centre-area grill for small amounts of food 0 = full-surface grill for larger amounts of food Always use the shelf and roasting pan together. Lightly brush the wire shelf with oil and baste the food if desired. 19 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. When cooking conventionally: The bottom of a cake baked on a baking tray stays too light. Ensure that no other pans or trays are in the oven. Place tin on wire shelf. The cake gets too dry. Select a slightly higher oven temperature. Reduce the liquid in the cake mixture. The inside of the cake remains spongy or doughy, or meat stays raw in the centre. 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. 20 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. Standard defrosting of various foods: Shelf-in levels: With 1 baking sheet: Slide-in level 3 With 2 baking sheets: Slide-in levels 1 and 3 All stated times are approximate guidelines that vary with the shape and volume of frozen products. Raw frozen products or foods from a freezer always defrost at 50° C. Defrost frozen meals packed in aluminium foil or closed aluminium containers at a setting of 130 ­ 140° C. Place frozen meals packed in plastic bags or plastic containers in a pot filled with water. [. . . ] The oven was locked to prevent unauthorised use (safety off function).
