Uses, Tables and Tips20
• Cakes and pastries at different heights may brown at an uneven rate at first. If this oc-
curs, please do not change the temperature setting. Different rates of browning
even out as baking progresses.
• Your new oven may bake or roast differently to your previous appliance. So adapt
your normal settings (temperature, cooking times) and oven shelf levels to the recom-
mendations in the following tables.
2 With longer baking times, you can switch the oven off about 10 minutes before the end
of the baking time, in order to utilise the residual heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the values given in the tables assume that cooking is started
with the oven cold.
