Cooking recommendations
The oven has four shelf positions. Count the shelf positions from the bottom of the cavity.
Moisture can condense in the oven or on the door glass panels during cooking. Always stand back from the oven when you open the oven door.
When the oven cools down, clean the cavity with a soft cloth.
Baking cakes
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the set cooking time is up.
Cooking meat and fish
Leave the meat for approximately 15 minutes before carving so that the juice does not seep out.
To prevent too much smoke in the oven during roasting, add some water into the deep pan. To prevent the smoke condensation, add water each time after it dries up.
Cooking times
Cooking times depend on the type of food, its consistency, and volume.
Initially, monitor the performance when you cook. Find the best settings (heat setting, cooking time, etc.) for your cookware, recipes and quantities when you use this appliance.
Microwave recommendations
- Place the food on the microwave bottom glass plate on the bottom of the cavity.
- Turn or stir the food halfway through the defrosting and cooking time.
- Cover the food for cooking and reheating.
- Put the spoon to the bottle or glass when heating drinks to ensure better heat distribution.
- Put the food into the oven without any packaging. The packaged ready meals can be put into the oven only when the packaging is microwave safe (check information on the packaging).
Microwave cooking
- Cook food covered. If you want to keep a crust cook food without a cover.
- Do not overcook the dishes by setting the power and time too high. The food can dry out, burn or cause fire.
- Do not use the oven to cook eggs or snails in their shells, because they can burst. Pierce the yolk of fried egg before reheating it.
- Pierce food with skin or peel with a fork several times before cooking.
- Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
- Stir liquid dishes from time to time.
- Stir the food before serving.
- After you turn off the oven, take the food out and let it stand for a few minutes.
Microwave Defrosting and Cookware
Microwave defrosting
Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small upturned plate with a container below it, or on a defrosting rack or plastic sieve so that the defrosting liquid can run off.
Remove defrosted pieces subsequently.
To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting them first, you can use a higher microwave power.

Care and Cleaning
Notes on cleaning
Clean the front of the oven with a soft cloth with warm water and a mild cleaning agent. To clean metal surfaces, use a dedicated cleaning agent.
Clean the oven interior after each use. Fat accumulation or other food remains may result in a fire.
Clean the cavity roof carefully from food residuals and fat.
Clean all accessories after each use and let them dry. Use a soft cloth with warm water and a cleaning agent. Do not clean the accessories in the dishwasher.
Clean stubborn dirt with a special oven cleaner.
If you have nonstick accessories, do not clean them using aggressive agents, sharp-edged objects or a dishwasher. It can cause damage to the nonstick coating.
Clean the moisture from the cavity after each use.
Stainless steel or aluminium ovens
Clean the oven door with a damp cloth or sponge only. Dry it with a soft cloth.
Do not use steel wool, acids or abrasive materials as they can damage the oven surface. Clean the oven control panel with the same precautions.
Cleaning the door gasket
Regularly do a check of the door gasket. The door gasket is around the frame of the oven cavity. Do not use the oven if the door gasket is damaged. Contact an Authorised Service Centre.
To clean the door gasket, refer to the general information about cleaning.
Removing the shelf supports
Before maintenance, make sure that the oven is cool. There is a risk of burns.
To clean the oven, remove the shelf supports.
- Pull carefully the supports up and out of the front catch.
- Pull the front end of the shelf support away from the side wall.
- Pull the supports out of the rear catch. Install the shelf supports in the opposite sequence.
Replacing the lamp
Put a cloth on the bottom of the interior of the oven. It prevents damage to the lamp glass cover and the cavity.
⚠ Warning! Danger of electrocution! Disconnect the fuse before you replace the lamp. The lamp and the lamp glass cover can be hot.
⚠ Caution! Always hold the halogen lamp with a cloth to prevent grease residue from burning on the lamp.

- Remove the fuses from the fuse box or turn off the circuit breaker.
- Turn the lamp glass cover counterclockwise to remove it.
