Ovenware
• At low temperatures, always roast meats uncovered.
Oven level
• The appropriate oven level can be found in the following table.
Tips for cooking at low temperatures
• The first 10 minutes of the programme are used to heat the empty
oven to 120°C. The three segments of the thermometer symbol flash
in succession. When the pre-heating time is completed, an audible
signal sounds.
• The oven switches automatically to a temperature of 80°C. This re-
mains constant for the whole of the cooking time.
• Meanwhile sear the meat in the frying pan, place it in a roasting
tray or directly on the oven shelf with the all-purpose tray or all-
purpose pan underneath it and then roast in the pre-heated oven.
