Light bottom/dark top

The food is too lightly browned on the bottom or too dark on top.

The temperature was set too high.

Reduce the temperature by 10–20 °C.

The food has been placed on the incorrect shelf level.

Use the most suitable shelf level for the food and operating mode as specified in the cooking chart. You can find the cooking chart in the “Notes on use” booklet or in the operating instructions.

The Rapid heat-up function has been used.

Do not use the Rapid heat-up function again if this problem occurs. This will prevent the food from browning so much on top, particularly on more delicate baked goods such as biscuits.

The Dialog oven has not been pre-heated.

Pre-heat the Dialog oven. This is particularly beneficial for food that is difficult to cook through at the bottom.

An unsuitable tin was used which reflects the heat. This extends the cooking duration and the top of the food will become too dark.

Do not use tin plate tins or light coloured ceramic tins as these reflect the heat.

You have not selected the optimum operating mode.

Where possible, use the “Intensive bake” operating mode for food that is difficult to cook through at the bottom in particular.
