WARNING!
Refer to "Safety information" chapter.
Information on acrylamides
According to the newest scientific knowledge, if you brown food (specially the one which contains starch), acrylamides can pose a health risk. Thus, we recommend that you cook at the lowest temperatures and do not brown food too much.
Inner side of door
On the inner side of the oven door you will find the numbers of the shelf levels.
The temperature and baking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the recipes, quality and quantity of the ingredients used.
Cooking with steam
Use only water as the liquid!
Cookware for steam cooking
• Use only heat and corrosion resistant cookware.
• Chrome steel food containers are correct too (see special accessories).
Uses, tables and tips
Oven levels
• There are the correct oven levels in the following tables. Count the oven levels from the bottom to the top.
General notes
• When you cook longer than 30 minutes or when you cook large quantities of food, add water if it is necessary.
• If you do not use the oven for a long time, thoroughly rinse out the water drawer, connecting hoses and steam generator (see section "Cleaning and Care").
Note on the tables
• The tables give data for typical dishes.
• The temperature and time are for guidance only and depend on the composition, size , quantity of food and the cookware.
• Use almost the same recipe if you cannot find the settings for your recipe.
• Start the cooking with the cold oven if the data in the tables does not recommend differently.
VIGOROUS STEAM
WARNING!
During VIGOROUS STEAM, do not under any circumstances open the oven door.

It can be used for cooking, warming, defrosting, poaching or blanching vegetables, meat, fish, pasta, rice, sweet corn, semolina and eggs. Cooking of menus: You can prepare a complete menu in one go. To avoid over or under cooked dishes choose those which require similar cooking times. Use the largest amount of water specified for individual component from the menu (see cooking tables). Put the dishes on the oven shelves in the suitable cookware. Adjust the gap between the dishes so that the steam can get to every dish.
Sterilisation
• You can sterilise containers ( e.g. baby bottles) with the VIGOROUS STEAMfunction.
• Put the clean containers in the middle of the shelf on the 1st level. Make sure that the opening faces down at a small angle.
• Fill the drawer with the maximum amount of water (650 ml) and set a time of 40 min. at 96°C.

TRUE FAN and VIGOROUS STEAM in succession
You can cook meat, vegetables and accompaniments one after the other by combining functions TRUE FANand VIGOROUS STEAM and together in case of function VIGOROUS STEAM . All components are ready to serve at the same time.
• use TRUE FAN function to initial roast of the food;
• put prepared vegetables and accompaniments in oven-proof dishes and place in the oven with the roast.
• start the VIGOROUS STEAM function and cook it all together until ready.
Cool down the oven to a temperature of around 80°C before you start the VIGOROUS STEAMfunction. To cool the appliance down quicker, open the oven door to the first position for approximately 15 minutes.

Baking
General instructions
• Your new oven may bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. Adapt your usual settings (temperature, cooking times) and shelf levels to the values in the tables.
• With longer baking times, the oven can be switched off about 10 minutes before the end of baking time, to use the residual heat.
When you use frozen food, the trays in the oven can twist during baking. When the trays get cold again, the distortion will be gone.
How to use the Baking Tables
• We recommend to use the lower temperature the first time.
• If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the one that is almost the same.
Uses, tables and tips
7
• Baking time can be extended by 10-15 minutes, if you bake cakes on more than one level.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equally at first. If this occurs, do not change the temperature setting. The differences equalize during the baking pro­cedure.

Roasting
General instructions:
• Use heat-resistant ovenware to roast (please read the instructions of the manufacturer).
• Large roasting joints can be roasted directly in the deep roasting pan or on the oven shelf above the deep roasting pan. (If present)
• Roast lean meats in a roasting tin with a lid. This well keep the meat more succulent.
• All types of meat, that can be browned or have crackling, can be roasted in the roasting tin without the lid.
Uses, tables and tips
11
• We recommend cooking meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above in the oven.
• To prevent escaping meat juices or fat from burning on to the pan, we recommend placing some liquid in the deep roasting pan.
• If required, turn the roast (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
• Baste large roasts and poultry with their juices several times during roasting. This will give better roasting results.
• You can switch the oven off about 10 minutes before the end of the roasting time, in order to utilise the residual heat.

SLOW COOK
SLOW COOK is correct for pieces of tender, lean meat and fish to make them succulent. SLOW COOK is not correct for pot roasts or fatty pork roasts. The oven gets the pre set temperature and a signal operates. Then, the oven automatically sets to a lower temperature to continue cooking.
Always cook without a lid in SLOW COOK .
1. Sear the meat in a pan in a very high heat.
2. Put the meat in a roasting dish or directly on the oven shelf. Put the tray below the
shelf to catch the fat.
3. Put the shelf in the oven. Select SLOW COOK . If it is necessary, set SLOW COOK TWO
and cook until done. See in the table.

•15 g salt
Method:
Place flour and salt in a large bowl. Dissolve the yeast in tepid milk and add to the flour. Knead all ingredients into a workable dough. Depending on the qualities of the flour, a little more milk may be required to achieve a workable dough. Leave the dough to rise until it doubles in volume. Cut the dough into two, make into two long loaves and place on the baking tray which has been greased or covered with naking parchment. Leave the loaves to rise again by half their volume. Before baking, dust them with flour and with a sharp knife cut 3-4 diagonal lines, at least 1 cm deep.

Put the rest of the sugar on the edge of the flour. Knead all ingredients into a workable yeast dough. Leave the dough to rise in a warm place until it is about double the size. For the filling, mix all ingredients together. Divide the dough into three equal parts and roll out into long rectangles. Spread a third of the filling onto each rectangle and then roll the pieces of dough together. Make a plait out of the three pieces of dough. Coat the surface of the plait with a mixture of egg yolk and milk and then sprinkle with flaked almonds.
PRESERVING
• Only use usual preserving jars of the same dimension.
• Do not use jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins.
• Use the first shelf level from the bottom.
• Use the baking tray. You can put six 1-litre jars maximum on it.
• Fill all the jars to the same level and close them correctly.
• Put the jars on the shelf, make sure that they do not touch each other.
• Fill approximately 1/2 litre of water into the flat baking tray to have sufficient moisture in the oven.
• When the liquid lightly starts to bubble in the first jars (after about 35-60 minutes with 1 litre jars), switch off the oven or decrease the temperature to 100°C ( see table).
