Selecting the cooking duration
Unless otherwise stated, the durations
given in the roasting chart are for an
oven compartment which has not been
pre-heated.
 The traditional British method for cal-
culating the roasting time is to allow
15 to 20minutes per
lb/450grammes, according to type of
meat, plus approx. 20minutes, ad-
justing the length of time as roasting
proceeds to obtain the required res-
ult. The roasting time can also be de-
termined by multiplying the thickness
of the roast [cm] with the time per cm
[min/cm] stated below, depending on
the type of meat:
– Beef/venison: 15–18min/cm
– Pork/veal/lamb: 12–15min/cm
– Sirloin/fillet: 8–10min/cm
 As a general rule, check the food
after the shortest duration.
Tips
– For frozen meat, increase the cooking
duration by approx. 20minutes per kg.
– Frozen meat weighing less than ap-
prox. 1.5kg does not need to be de-
frosted before roasting.
Notes on the functions
You can find an overview of all the func-
tions with their recommended values in
“Overview of functions”.
Use the Bottom heatfunction to-
wards the end of the cooking duration
to brown the base of the food.
Do not use the Intensive bakefunc-
tion for roasting as the juices will be-
come too dark.
UsingFan plus
These functions are suitable for roasting
meat, fish and poultry that needs to be
well browned as well as sirloin joints
and fillet.
The Fan plusfunction allows you to
use a lower temperature than you would
with the Conventional heatfunction,
because the heat is immediately distrib-
uted around the oven compartment.
 Place the food in shelf level2.
UsingConventional heat
Use this function for baking traditional
recipes. If using an older recipe or
cookbook, set the oven temperature
10°C lower than the recommended
one. This will not change the cooking
duration.
 Place the food in shelf level2.
UsingEco Fan heat
Use this function for cooking smaller
roasts or meat dishes while saving energy.
 Place the food in shelf level2.
