Baking charts
Important!
Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after cooking or
defrosting. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take particular
care during warmer weather.
Please note:
The settings in the following charts are guidelines only. Follow the instructions in your recipe or
on packaging and be prepared to adjust the oven settings and baking times to achieve the best
possible results for you.
Shelf positions are counted from the oven floor up (1 is the lowest, 5 the highest).
Arrange oven shelves before you turn the oven on, then preheat the oven to the required
temperature (until the temperature indicator light goes out).
Settings in bold indicate the recommended oven function.
Baking chart
The shelf positions recommended below use the flat oven shelf (not the step-down shelf).
Note: the step-down shelf is not supplied with all models.
Depending on your model, your oven may only have some of these functions.
