Cooking temperatures
The temperature settings and time given
in the Baking Guides are based on dishes
made with block margarine. If soft tub
margarine is used, it may be necessary
to reduce the temperature setting. If a
recipe gives a different temperature set-
ting to that shown in the guide, the recipe
instruction should be followed.
Because the top oven is more compact,
it may be necessary to reduce cooking
temperaturesspeciedinrecipesbyupto
20°C.
Use the baking guide as a reference for
determining which temperatures to use.
