Uses, Tables and Tips
Baking
For baking use the hot air ¤ or conventional ¡ oven function.
Baking tins
• Coated baking tins and tins made of dark metal are suitable for
conventional ¡ heat.
• For hot air ¤ baking tins made of light metal are also suitable.
Shelf positions
• Baking with conventional ¡ is only possible on one shelf position at
a time.
• Using hot air ¤ you can bake dry items and biscuits on 2 baking trays
simultaneously.
1 Baking tray: Shelf position 3
1 Baking tin: Shelf position 1
14
2 Baking trays: Shelf positions
1 and 4
Page 15
General information
• Always count the shelf positions from the bottom upwards.
• Insert baking trays with the sloped edge to the front!
• Always place cake tins in the middle of the shelf.
• You can also bake with two tins at the same time using
conventional ¡ or hot air ¤ by placing the tins side by side on the
shelf. There is no significant increase in baking time.
3 When frozen foods are used the trays inserted may distort during cook-
ing. This is due to the large difference in temperature between the
freezing temperature and the temperature in the oven. Once the trays
have cooled the distortion will disappear again.
Notes on the baking tables
In the tables you will find information on temperatures, cooking times
and shelf positions for a selection of dishes.
• The temperatures and cooking times are for guidance only since these
are dependent on the mixture, quantity and cake tin used.
• We recommend that you use the lower temperature initially and only
select a higher temperature if necessary, e.g., if more browning is required or the cooking time is too long.
• If you cannot find specific information for one of your own recipes,
use information given in a similar recipe for guidance.
• When cakes are baked on trays or in tins on more than one oven po-
sition at once the baking time may be increased by 10-15 minutes.
• Items that might drip (e.g., pizzas, fruit flans) should only be prepared
on one level.
• Variations in the height of the item to be baked can lead to different
degrees of browning at the start of baking. In this case please do not
change the temperature setting. Differences in the degree of
browning will balance out during baking.
2 For longer cooking times switch off the oven approx. 10 minutes before
the end of the cooking time to make use of the residual heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the information in the tables assumes starting
with a cold oven.

Roasting
Use the rotitherm » or conventional ¡ oven functions for roasting.
Ovenware for roasting
• Any heat-resistant dish is suitable for roasting (refer to the manufac-
turer's instructions!).
• If the dish has plastic handles, check that they are heat-resistant (re-
fer to manufacturer's instructions!).
• Large roasts can be roasted directly on the universal baking tray or
on the shelf with the universal baking tray underneath (e.g. tur-
key, goose, 3-4 chickens, 3-4 knuckles of veal).
• We recommend that all lean pieces of meat should be roasted in a
casserole dish with a lid (e.g. veal, marinated beef, pot roast, frozen
meat.) In this way the meat will retain its juices.
• In order to obtain a tasty outside crust we recommend roasting piec-
es of meat in a casserole dish without a lid (e.g. roast pork, lamb
and mutton, meat loaf, duck, 1-2 knuckles of veal, 1-2 chickens, small
fowl, roast beef, fillets, game).
3 Tip: The oven will be less dirty if you always use a dish for roasting!
Shelf positions
• Please see the following table for the shelf positions to be used.
3 Notes on the roasting table
Information is given in the table on suitable oven functions, temperature settings, cooking times and shelf positions for various types of
meat. The information is for guidance.
• We recommend roasting meat and fish with a minimum weight of
1kg in the oven.
• In general the conventional ¡ oven function is particularly suitable
for very lean meat such as fish or game. For all other types of meat
(particularly poultry) we recommend the rotitherm » function.
• To stop meat juices or fat burning onto dishes or the oven, we recom-
mend adding a little liquid to the roasting dish.
• Turn the joint as required (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
3 Tip: Baste large joints and poultry several times during cooking with
the meat juices. This will produce better roasting results.
2 Switch off the oven approx. 10 minutes before the end of the cooking
time to make use of the residual heat.

Service
In the “What to do if …” section a number of malfunctions are listed
that you can rectify yourself Look there first if a fault occurs.
Is it a technical fault?
If so, please contact your customer service centre. (You will find addresses and telephone numbers in the section “Customer Service Centres”.)
Always prepare in advance for the discussion. This will make diagnosis
of the problem easier and also make it easier to decide if a customer
service visit is necessary:
Please make a note of the following information as accurately as possible:
• What form does the fault take?
• Under what circumstances does the fault occur?
Prior to the telephone call it is important that you make a note of the
following appliance code numbers
that are given on the rating plate:
• model description,
• PNC code (9 digits),
• S No code (8 digits).
We recommend that you record the
code numbers here so that you always have them to hand:
Model: . . . . . . . . . . .
PNC: . . . . . . . . . . .
S-No: . . . . . . . . . . .
When do you incur costs even during the warranty period?
• if you could have remedied the fault yourself using the fault table
(see section “What to do if …”),
• if the customer service technician has to make several journeys because he was not provided with all the relevant information before
his visit and therefore, forexample, has to fetch spare parts. These
multiple trips can be avoided if you prepare your phone call as described above.
