Notes on the cooking charts
You can find the cooking charts at the
end of this book.
Selecting the temperature
As a general rule, select the lower
temperature given in the chart.
Baking at temperatures higher than
those recommended may reduce the
cooking duration, but will lead to
uneven browning of the food and
unsatisfactory cooking results.
If you are using MChef functions, the
food is cooked from the inside by
electro-magnetic waves and at the
same time browned on the outside by
the heater elements. Cooking
durations are shorter this way than
with conventional functions. The set
temperature is higher in order to
achieve the level of browning required
in the shorter time.
Selecting the cooking duration
Unless otherwise stated, the cooking
durations given in the cooking charts
are for an oven compartment which has
not been pre-heated. With a pre-heated
oven compartment, shorten times by
around 10minutes.
As a general rule, check the food
after the shortest duration. Stick a
wooden skewer into the food.
If it comes out clean without any batter/
dough on it, the food is done.
Notes on the functions
You can find an overview of all the
functions with their recommended
values in “Main and sub-menus”.
Using Automatic programmes
Follow the instructions on the display.
Use the Dialog oven cookbook for
guidance.
Using M Chef + Fan plus
Use this function for baking cakes and
bread.
Place the food on shelf level2.
Using Fan plus
Since the fan distributes the heat
around the oven compartment straight
away, it allows you to use a lower
temperature than you would with the
Conventional heatfunction.
Use this function for baking biscuits
and cookies.
Use this function if you are baking on
multiple shelves at the same time.
1shelf level: place flat items (e.g.
biscuits) on shelf level1.
1shelf level: place tray cakes and
cakes in baking tins on shelf level2.
2shelf levels: place the food on shelf
levels2+3.
Tips
- If you are cooking on multiple shelves
at the same time, slide the universal
tray in on the lowest level.
- For moist biscuits and cakes, bake on
a maximum of 2shelf levels at once.
