2 Preventing Material Damage

2.1 General

ATTENTION! Objects on the cooking compartment floor at over 50 °C will cause heat to build up. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.

  • Do not place any accessories, greaseproof paper or foil of any kind on the cooking compartment floor.
  • Only place cookware on the cooking compartment floor if a temperature above 50 °C has been set.

When the cooking compartment is hot, any water inside it will create steam. The change in temperature may cause damage.

  • Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is still hot.
  • Never place cookware containing water on the cooking compartment floor.

The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking compartment leads to corrosion.

  • Allow the cooking compartment to dry after use.
  • Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment for a long time with the door closed.
  • Do not store food in the cooking compartment.

Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over time.

  • Always allow the cooking compartment to cool down with the door closed after cooking at high temperatures.
  • Take care not to trap anything in the appliance door.
  • Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced during operation.

Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed.

  • When baking very juicy fruit flans, do not pack too much on the baking tray.
  • If possible, use the deeper universal pan.

Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment damages the enamel.

  • Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment when it is still warm.
  • Remove all food remnants from the cooking compartment and the appliance door before you next heat up the appliance.

If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. This may damage the front of adjacent kitchen units.

  • Keep the seal clean at all times.
  • Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing.

Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may damage it.

  • Do not place, hang or support objects on the appliance door.
  • Do not place cookware or accessories on the appliance door.

1.5 Halogen Bulb

  • Before replacing the bulb, ensure that the appliance is switched off in order to prevent a potential electric shock.
  • Also unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.

3 Environmental Protection and Saving Energy

3.1 Disposing of Packaging

The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.

  • Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.

3.2 Saving Energy

If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power.

  • Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so.
  • Not preheating the appliance can reduce the energy used by up to 20%.

Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins.

  • These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly well.

Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation.

  • This maintains the temperature in the cooking compartment and eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat.

When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel.

  • The cooking compartment is heated after baking the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the second cake.

If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends.

  • There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the dish.

Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment.

  • Accessories that are not being used do not need to be heated.

Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.

  • This saves the energy that would otherwise be required to defrost it.

Note: The appliance requires:

  • a maximum of 1 W when the appliance is in operation with the display switched on
  • a maximum of 0.5 W when the appliance is in operation with the display switched off

4 Familiarising Yourself with Your Appliance

4.1 Control Panels

You can use the control panel to configure all functions of your appliance and to obtain information about the operating status.

Controls

You can use the controls to configure all functions of your appliance and to obtain information about the operating status. On certain models, specific details such as colour and shape may differ from those pictured.

Diagram Description: The control panel features three main elements: 1. Buttons and Display: Touch-sensitive buttons for selecting functions. The display shows active functions and time-setting options. 2. Function Selector: A rotary dial to select heating types and other functions. It can be turned or pushed. 3. Temperature Selector: A rotary dial to set temperature or other function settings. It can be turned clockwise and may be pushed.

Buttons and Display

You can use the buttons to set various functions for your appliance. The display shows the settings. If a function is active, the corresponding symbol lights up on the display. The symbol [time symbol] only lights up when you change the time.

Symbol Function Use
[Childproof lock symbol] Childproof lock Activate or deactivate the childproof lock.
[Time-setting options symbol] Time-setting options Select the time, timer [timer symbol], cooking time [cooking time symbol] and the end time [end time symbol]. To select the individual time-setting options, press [button symbol] several times.
[Minus symbol] Minus Decrease the setting values.
[Plus symbol] Plus Increase the setting values.

Types of Heating and Functions

To ensure that you always use the right type of heating to cook your food, we explain the differences and applications below.

Symbol Type of heating What it's used for and how it works
[3D Hot Air symbol] 3D hot air Bake or roast on one or more levels. The fan distributes the heat from the ring-shaped heating element in the back wall evenly around the cooking compartment.
[Hot Air Gentle symbol] Hot air gentle Cook selected dishes gently on one level without preheating. The fan distributes the heat from the ring-shaped heating element in the back wall evenly around the cooking compartment. The food is cooked in phases using residual heat. Select a temperature between 120 °C and 230 °C. Always keep the appliance door closed when cooking. This type of heating is used to determine the energy consumption in air recirculation mode and the energy efficiency class.
[Full-surface grill symbol] Full-surface grill Grill flat items such as steak, sausages, or toast. Gratinate food. The entire area below the grill element becomes hot.
[Hot air grilling symbol] Hot air grilling Roast poultry, whole fish or large pieces of meat. The grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately. The fan circulates the hot air around the food.
[Defrosting symbol] Defrosting Gently defrost frozen food.

Temperature and Setting Levels

There are different settings for the types of heating and functions.

Note: For temperature settings above 250 °C, the appliance reduces the temperature to approx. 240 °C after approx. 10 minutes. If your appliance has the top/bottom heating or bottom heating types, this temperature reduction does not take place.

Symbol Function Use
[Zero setting symbol] Zero setting The appliance does not heat up.
50–275 Temperature range Set the temperature in the cooking compartment in °C.
1, 2, 3 or I, II, III Grill settings Depending on the appliance type, set the grill settings for the grill, for the large area and grill, or for the small area. 1 = low, 2 = medium, 3 = high

Heat-up Indicator

The appliance indicates when it is heating up. When the appliance is heating, [heat-up symbol] lights up on the display. This symbol goes out when heating is paused. When you preheat the appliance, the optimal time to place your food in the cooking compartment is when the symbol first goes out.

Note: Due to thermal inertia, the temperature that is displayed may differ slightly from the actual temperature inside the cooking compartment.

4.2 Cooking Compartment

The functions in the cooking compartment make your appliance easier to use.

Rails

The rails in the cooking compartment enable you to place accessories at different heights. The cooking compartment has five shelf positions. The shelf positions are numbered from bottom to top. You can remove the rails, e.g. for cleaning. ➡️ "Rails", Page 13

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the five shelf positions in the oven cavity, numbered 1 (bottom) to 5 (top).

Self-cleaning Surfaces

The back panel in the cooking compartment is self-cleaning. The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a porous, matte ceramic layer and have a coarse surface. When the appliance is in operation, the self-cleaning surfaces absorb splashes from roasting or grilling and break them down. If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean themselves adequately during operation, heat up the cooking compartment specifically to the right temperature. ➡️ "Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking compartment", Page 12

Lighting

The oven light lights up the cooking compartment. With most types of heating and functions, the lighting lights up during operation. If you use the function selector to end the operation, the lighting switches off.

15 How it Works

Here, you can find the ideal settings for various types of food as well as the best accessories and cookware. These recommendations are perfectly tailored to your appliance.

15.1 Proceed as follows:

Note:

If you are using the appliance for the first time, follow this important information:

  • ➡️ "Safety", Page 2
  • ➡️ "Saving energy", Page 4
  • ➡️ "Preventing material damage", Page 4
  1. Select a suitable type of food from the overview of food.

Note: If you do not find the exact food or application that you want to prepare or implement, look for a similar dish and take the general information into consideration.

  1. Remove any accessories from the cooking compartment.
  2. Select suitable cookware and accessories. Use the cookware and the accessory listed in the recommended settings.
  3. Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so.
  4. Use the recommended settings when configuring the appliance settings.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of Scalding! Hot steam may escape when you open the appliance door. Steam may not be visible, depending on the temperature.

  • Open the appliance door carefully.
  • Keep children at a safe distance.

When the dish is ready, switch off the appliance.

15.2 Condensation

This section tells you how condensation is formed, how you can prevent damage, and how you can prevent condensation from forming.

When you are cooking food in the cooking compartment, a lot of steam may form in the cooking compartment. Since your appliance is extremely energy-efficient, only a small amount of heat escapes during operation. Due to the significant differences in temperature between the appliance interior and the external parts of the appliance, condensation may build up on the appliance door, the control panel or the front panels of adjacent kitchen cabinets. The formation of condensation is a normal physical phenomenon. In order to prevent damage, wipe away the condensation. When you preheat the appliance, you reduce the build-up of condensation.

15.3 Good to Know

Observe this information when preparing food.

  • The temperature and cooking time depend on the amount of food and the recipe. Settings ranges are specified for this reason. Select lower values first and, if required, select higher values the next time. Cooking times cannot be reduced by using higher temperatures. Doing this would mean that the food would only be cooked on the outside, and would not be fully cooked in the middle.
  • The setting values apply to food placed in the cooking compartment while the cooking compartment is still cold. You can cut your energy use by up to 20%.

It is not usually necessary to preheat the appliance. If you would like to preheat the oven anyway, you can reduce the indicated baking times by a few minutes. Preheating is required for some types of food. Do not place accessories into the cooking compartment until it has finished preheating.

  • Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment. This allows you to achieve optimal cooking results and save up to 20% in energy.
  • Hot air gentle is an intelligent type of heating that allows you to gently cook meat, fish and baked items. The appliance optimally controls the supply of energy to the cooking compartment. The food is cooked in phases using residual heat. This means that the food remains more succulent and browns less. Depending on the preparation and food, you can save energy. If you preheat the appliance or open the appliance door before the food has finished cooking, you may not be able to achieve this result. The hot air gentle type of heating is used to measure both the energy consumption in circulating-air mode and the energy efficiency class.
  • Only use original accessories. The original accessory has been tailored to the cooking compartment and the types of heating. Ensure that the accessory slides in the right way round.

Greaseproof Paper

Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the selected temperature. Always cut the greaseproof paper to size.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of Fire! Opening the appliance door creates a draught. Greaseproof paper may come into contact with the heating element and catch fire.

  • Never place greaseproof paper loosely over accessories when preheating the appliance and while cooking.
  • Always cut greaseproof paper to size and use a plate or baking tin to hold it down.

15.4 Notes on Baking

When baking, use the shelf positions indicated.

Baking on One Level

Shelf position
Rising pasta/baked goods or tin on the wire rack 2
Flat pasta/baked items or in the baking tray 2–3

Baking on Two or More Levels

Shelf position

Baking tray 1
Baking tins on the wire rack: First wire rack 3
Baking tins on the wire rack: Second wire rack 1

Baking on Three Levels

Shelf position
Baking trays 5
Universal pan 3
Baking trays 1

Notes

  • When baking on several layers, use hot air. Different food that is placed in the oven at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
  • In such cases, you can remove the cooked food and continue to cook the other baking tray. If necessary, you can change the position and direction of the baking trays.

Position baking tins/dishes either next to one another or offset on different shelves so that they are not directly one above the other in the cooking compartment. You can cut energy use by cooking different items at the same time.

For best results, we recommend using dark-coloured metal baking tins.

15.5 Cakes and Other Baked Goods

Recommended Settings for Cakes and Baked Items

The temperature and baking time depend on the quantity and consistency of the dough. This is why temperature ranges are given in the tables. Set a short cooking time first. If required, set a longer cooking time next time. A lower temperature results in more even browning.

Baking Tips

We have compiled a few tips to help you achieve a good baking result.

Topic Tip
You want your cake to rise evenly. Only grease the base of the springform cake tin.
You do not want small baked goods to stick to each other when baking. After baking, use a knife to carefully loosen the cake from the baking tin.
Determine whether the cake is ready. Leave a minimum clearance of 2 cm around each item that is to be baked. This allows enough space for the baked goods to expand and brown on all sides. Push a cocktail stick into the highest point on the cake. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
You want to bake according to your own recipe. Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
  • The baking tin must be heat-resistant up to 250 °C.
  • Cakes in these types of bakeware brown less.

15.8 Bakes and Gratins

How well cooked the bake is will depend on the size of the ovenware and the thickness of the bake. Use wide, shallow cookware for bakes and gratins. Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow cookware and it browns more on top. You can prepare food in baking tins or in the universal pan.

  • Baking tins on the wire rack: Shelf position 2
  • Universal pan: Shelf position 2

You can cut energy use by cooking different items at the same time. Position baking tins next to one another in the cooking compartment.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of Injury! If hot glass cookware is placed on a wet or cold surface, the glass may shatter.

  • Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking.

15.9 Poultry, Meat and Fish

The table lists values for poultry, meat and fish, with default values for the weight. If you prepare dishes that are larger or heavier than what is specified in the recommended settings, always use the lower temperature. If cooking more than one item, use the weight of the heaviest item as a basis for determining the cooking time. The individual pieces must be approximately the same size.

Roasting and Grilling on the Wire Rack

Roasting on the wire rack works particularly well for large poultry or for multiple pieces at the same time. Depending on the size and type of the food to be roasted, add up to 1/2 litre water to the universal pan. You can make a sauce from the juices that are collected. This also means that less smoke is produced and the cooking compartment does not become as dirty.

  • Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill. Never grill with the appliance door open.
  • Place the food to be grilled on the wire rack. In addition, slide the universal pan in at least one shelf position lower, with the slanted edge facing the appliance door. This means that any dripping fat is caught.

Roasting in Cookware

If you cook food in cookware, you can remove it from the cooking compartment more easily and serve it directly in the cookware. If you cover the cookware when you cook your food, this will keep the cooking compartment cleaner.

General Information About Roasting in Cookware
  • Use heat-resistant, ovenproof cookware.
  • Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
  • Check in advance whether the cookware fits in the cooking compartment.
  • Glass cookware is best.
  • Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or aluminium are not ideal. They reflect the heat like a mirror. The food cooks more slowly and does not brown as well. Increase the temperature accordingly and extend the cooking time.
  • Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roasting dishes.
Cookware Without Lid
  • Use a deep roasting dish.
  • Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
  • If you do not have any suitable cookware, use the universal pan.
Cookware With Lid
  • Use a suitable lid that seals well.
  • Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
  • Meat, poultry and fish can also become crispy in a covered roasting dish. Use a roasting dish with a glass lid for this. Select a higher temperature.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of Injury! If hot glass cookware is placed on a wet or cold surface, the glass may shatter.

  • Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of Scalding! Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened after cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on the temperature.

  • Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can escape away from you.
  • Keep children away from the appliance.

Notes on Roasting and Grilling

The setting values are based on the assumption that unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry, meat or fish is placed into a cold cooking compartment.

ATTENTION! Acidic food may damage the grid

  • Do not place acidic food, such as fruit or food with an acidic marinade directly on the pan support.
  • The larger the poultry, meat or fish, the lower the temperature and the longer the cooking time.
  • Turn the poultry, meat or fish after approx. 1/2 to 2/3 of the time listed.
  • Add a little liquid to the poultry in the cookware. Cover the base of the cookware with approx. 1–2 cm of liquid.
  • When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side or skin side is underneath to begin with.
  • Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. If you pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out and it will become dry.
  • Only add salt to steaks once they have been grilled. Salt draws water from the meat.
  • Set the cooking time (e.g. 20 + 35): For 500 g meat, calculate 20 minutes plus 35 minutes baking time with additional time. For 1.5 kg, the cooking time would therefore be 95 minutes.
  • Cooking time range (e.g. 10–15): Your food will be ready within the specified range of time.

Information for those allergic to nickel

In rare cases, small amounts of nickel may pass into the food.

15.12 Tips for Keeping Acrylamide Levels to a Minimum When Cooking

Acrylamide is harmful to your health and is produced when you cook cereal and potato products at very high temperatures.

Meal Tip
General information Keep cooking times as short as possible.
Cook food until it is golden brown, but not too dark.
Use large, thick pieces of food. These contain less acrylamide.
Baking Set the temperature in hot air mode to max. 180 °C.
Biscuits Set the temperature in hot air mode to max. 170 °C.
Brush baked items and biscuits with egg or egg yolk. This reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chips Spread the chips out evenly and in a single layer on the baking tray.
Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking tray so that the chips do not dry out.

15.13 Drying

You can achieve outstanding drying results for the food using hot air. With this type of preserving, flavours are concentrated as a result of the dehydration. The temperature and drying time depend on the type, moistness, ripeness and thickness of the food. The longer you leave the food to be dried, the better it will be preserved. The thinner you cut the slices, the quicker the drying process will be and the more flavour the dried food will retain. Settings ranges are specified for this reason.

Preparation for Drying

  1. Only use unblemished, fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs and wash them thoroughly. Line the wire rack with greaseproof paper or parchment paper. Drain the excess water from the fruit and then dry it.
  2. If required, cut the fruit into thin pieces or slices of equal size. Place unpeeled fruit onto the dish with the sliced surfaces facing upwards. Ensure that neither fruit nor mushrooms overlap on the wire rack.
  3. Grate vegetables and then blanch them. Drain the excess water from the blanched vegetables and spread them evenly on the wire rack.
  4. Dry herbs on the stem. Spread the herbs out evenly and slightly heaped on the wire rack.
  5. Turn very juicy fruit and vegetables several times. After drying, remove the dried fruit and vegetables from the paper immediately.

Recommended Settings: Drying

The table contains settings for drying various foodstuffs. If you want to dry food that is not listed in the table, you should use similar foodstuffs in the table as a reference.

Note:

Use the following shelf positions for drying:

  1. Place the dough into a heat-resistant bowl.
  2. Place the bowl on the wire rack.
  3. Use the recommended settings when configuring the appliance settings. Only start operation when the cooking compartment has fully cooled down.
  4. Do not open the appliance door while the dough is proving, otherwise moisture will escape.
  5. Continue processing the dough and mould it into the final shape for baking.
  6. Place the dough into the cooking compartment at the specified shelf position.

Tip: If you want to preheat the oven, do not carry out the final proving stage in the appliance.
