Causes of damage
Caution!
■ When using the heating modes top and bottom heat or hot-
air, do not place accessories or ovenware on the cooking
compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking compartment
floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper. This will cause
heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no
longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
■ Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour water into
the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause
steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the
enamel.
■ Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking
compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods This will
damage the enamel.
■ Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not
pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from
the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If
possible, use the deeper universal pan.
■ Heavily soiled oven seal: if the oven seal is heavily soiled, the
oven door will no longer close properly when the oven is in
operation. Always keep the oven seal clean.
■ Oven door as a bearing surface: do not stand or place
objects on the oven door when it is open. Do not hang
objects on the oven door.
■ Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the appliance by
the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight
of the appliance and could break.
Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
■ Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in
the operating instruction tables.
■ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They
absorb the heat particularly well.
■ Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while you are
cooking, baking or roasting.
■ It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The oven
is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second
cake. You can also place two loaf tins next to each other.
■ For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the
residual heat to finish cooking.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
Installation and connection

The appliance becomes very hot. Never touch the interior
surfaces of the cooking compartment or the heating elements.
Always allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children at a
safe distance.
: Risk of electric shock!
Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners,
which can result in an electric shock.
: Risk of injury!
Scratched glass in the appliance door may develop into a
crack. Do not use a glass scraper, sharp or abrasive cleaning
aids or detergents.
: Risk of electric shock!
Penetrating moisture may cause electric shock. Before cleaning
and maintenance, please unplug the mains plug or switch off
the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Do not immerse the
appliance in water or other liquid when cleaning.
Notes
■ Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
■ Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Cleaning agent
To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.
Do not use:
■ Harsh or abrasive cleaning agents,
■ Cleaning agents with a high alcohol content,
■ Hard scouring pads or cleaning sponges,
■ High-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.

Tested for you in our cooking studio
Here you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for
them. We will show you which type of heating and which
temperature are best suited for your dish. You can find
information about suitable accessories and the height at which
they should be inserted. There are also tips about cookware
and preparation methods.
Notes
■ The values in the table always apply to dishes placed into the
cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.
Only preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you
should do so. Do not line the accessories with greaseproof
paper until after they have been preheated.
■ The times specified in the tables are guidelines only. They will
depend on the quality and composition of the food.
■ Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be
obtained as special accessories from specialist retailers or
from the after-sales service.
Before using the oven, remove any unnecessary accessories
and ovenware from the cooking compartment.
■ Always use oven gloves when taking hot accessories or
ovenware out of the cooking compartment.
Cakes and pastries
Baking tins
It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins.
Baking times are increased when light-coloured baking tins
made of thin metal or glass dishes are used, and cakes do not
brown so evenly.
If you wish to use silicone baking tins, use the information and
recipes provided by the manufacturer as a guide. Silicone
baking tins are often smaller than normal tins. The amount of
mixture and recipe instructions may differ.
Tables
The tables show the ideal type of heating for the various cakes
and pastries. The temperature and baking time depend on the
amount and composition of the mixture. This is why
temperature ranges are given in the tables. You should try the
lower temperature first, since a lower temperature results in
more even browning. You can increase the temperature next
time if necessary.
If you preheat the oven, the baking time is shortened by 5 to
10 minutes.
Additional information can be found in the Baking tips section
following the tables.

Before you start: Only preheat the appliance if the recipe specifies that you should do so. If you do pre-
heat, select a temperature that is lower than the baking temperature specified in the
cooking table. Apart from the baking tray or wire rack required for baking, there should
be no other objects in the oven. If you are using a small tin or tray for baking, place this
right in the centre of the wire rack.
The ingredients used have an effect on
the cooking time.
All the ingredients used for cakes and strudel/bakes must be fresh and at room temper-
ature. Flour must be of the quality required for baking cakes and strudel/bakes and must
be sieved. Use baking powder and yeast according to the instructions and quantity indi-
cations of the manufacturer.
Cakes and bakes/strudel brown very
quickly but are not cooked through.
Not all foods brown at the same rate. When you brush food with egg, milk or oil, they
brown more quickly. If the bake browns too quickly: next time, slide the baking tray in at
a lower level, reduce the temperature and increase the baking time. Otherwise, the bake
may not be cooked through on the inside, even if appears to be on the outside.
Preparing yeast dough The milk (or water) must be lukewarm in order for the dough to rise. The dough should
have the consistency of an earlobe. A hard dough will not rise. Allow the dough to prove
in a warm place for about 30 minutes. Do not leave to prove for too long, otherwise the
dough will become sour. Once you have made the dough into the required shape, leave
it to prove for a further 15 minutes and then place it in a cold oven. When it is cooked,
take the dough out of the oven, cover it with a damp tea towel and leave it to cool. This
will give it a soft crust.
You wish to bake according to your own
recipe.
Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
You can check whether a cake is
cooked or not.
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, insert a thin cocktail stick
into the deepest point of the cake. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake is
ready.
The cake collapses. Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the mix-
ing times specified in the recipe. Do not open the oven door until at least 10 minutes
before the end of the cooking time.
The cake has risen in the middle but has
sunk around the edge.
Do not grease the edge of the cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake from the tin care-
fully with a knife.
The cake browns too much on top. Next time, place the cake lower in the oven and bake at a lower temperature for slightly
longer.
The cake is too dry. Make tiny holes in the finished cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit juice over it.
Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher and reduce the baking time.
The cake looks good, but is soggy on
the inside.
Use less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature.
The pieces of dough are sticking
together when the yeast rolls are baked.
There must be a distance of about 2 cm between the bread rolls. This gives enough
space for the bread rolls to expand and bake evenly on all sides.
Condensation forms when you bake
moist cakes.
Steam can form during baking, which escapes via the door. The steam may settle and
form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natu-
ral process.

Meat, poultry, fish
Ovenware
Use a heat-resistant dish. The baking tray is also suitable for
grilling larger items.
We recommend that you use a glass roasting dish. The lid of
the roasting dish should fit well and close properly.
If you use an enamel roasting dish, you must add a little more
liquid.
Because meat does not brown so much in stainless-steel
dishes, it may not be cooked all the way through. Increase the
roasting time.
Always place the baking tin in the centre of the wire rack.
Place hot glass roasting dishes on a dry trivet. If the trivet is wet
or cold, the glass may crack.
Roasting
Add in a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. ½ cm of liquid.
Add liquid generously for pot roasts. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. 1 - 2 cm of liquid.
The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat and the
material the ovenware is made of. If preparing meat in an
enamelled roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if
cooked in glass ovenware.
Roasting dishes made from stainless steel are not ideal. The
meat cooks more slowly and browns less fully. Use a higher
temperature and/or a longer cooking time.
Tips for grilling
When grilling, preheat the oven for approx. 3 minutes before
placing the food into the cooking compartment.
When grilling a single thick piece of food, slide the wire rack in
at level 2, otherwise the food may touch the grill.
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be
of equal thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and
remain succulent and juicy.
Turn the food you are grilling after
Z of the time.
Only add salt to steaks once they have been grilled.
Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire rack. If you
are grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by
placing it in the centre of the wire rack.
When grilling, place the round baking tray on the floor of the
oven to collect any dripping fat.

Tips for roasting and grilling
Preprepared products
Observe the instructions on the packaging.
If you line the accessories with greaseproof paper, make sure
that the paper is suitable for these temperatures. Make sure the
paper is a suitable size for the dish to be cooked.
The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of the food.
Pre-browning and irregularities can sometimes even be found
on the raw product.
Defrosting
Take food out of its packaging and place in suitable ovenware
on the wire rack.
Observe the instructions on the packaging.
The defrosting time depends on the amount and type of food.
Place poultry with the breast side to the plate.
Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products
prepared at high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips,
toast, bread rolls, bread or fine baked goods (biscuits,
gingerbread, spiced biscuit).
The table does not contain information
for the weight of the joint.
Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
How to tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”.
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling
is partly burnt.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are
burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are
too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through
the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the cooler switch panel or on
the fronts of adjacent units.

Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
General
■ Keep cooking times to a minimum.
■ Cook meals until they are golden brown, but not too dark.
■ Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
Baking With top/bottom heating max. 200 °C.
Biscuits With top/bottom heating max. 190 °C.
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chips Spread out a single layer evenly on the baking tray.
