Important: Always grill with the oven door closed. • When grilling, use the oven shelf and drip pan together. • The grilling times are for guidance only. • Grilling is particularly suitable for flat pieces of meat or fish.
Defrosting Oven function: Defrost/Drying (30°C temperature setting) • Unwrap the food and place it on a plate on the oven shelf. • Do not cover with a plate or bowl, as these can substantially lengthen the defrosting time. • For defrosting, place the shelf in the 1st oven level from the bottom.
• Use with trays covered with greaseproof paper or baking parchment. • You will get a better result if you turn the oven off after half the dry- ing time, open the door and preferably leave the oven to cool down overnight.
• As soon as the liquid in the first jars starts to simmer (after approx. 35-60 minutes for 1 litre jars), switch off the oven or adjust the tem- perature to 100°C (see table). Preserves table The times and temperatures for making preserves are for guidance only.
