Uses, Tables and Tips
Baking
Oven function: PROFI HOT AIR or CONVENTIONAL
Baking tins
For CONVENTIONAL dark metal and non-stick tins are suitable.
For PROFI HOT AIR bright metal tins are also suitable.
Oven levels
Baking with CONVENTIONAL is possible on one oven level.
With PROFI HOT AIR you can bake on up to 3 baking trays at the same
time:
1 baking tray: e.g. oven level 3
1 cake tin: e.g. oven level 1
2 baking trays: z. g., oven levels 1 and 3
3 baking trays: oven levels 1, 3 and 5
3
General Instructions
Insert the tray with the bevel at the front.
With CONVENTIONAL or PROFI HOT AIR you can also bake with two
tins next to one another on the oven shelf at the same time. This does not significantly increase 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.
How to use the Baking Tables
The tables give the required temperature settings, baking times and oven shelf levels for a selection of typical dishes.
Temperatures and baking times are for guidance only, as these will depend on the consistency of pastry, dough or mixture, the amount and the type of baking tin.
We recommend using the lower temperature the first time and then if necessary, for example, if a deeper browning is required, or baking time is too long, selecting a higher temperature.
If you cannot find the settings for a particular recipe, look for the one that is most similar.
If baking cakes on baking trays or in tins on more than one level, bak­ing time may be extended by 10-15 minutes.
Moist recipes (for example, pizzas, fruit flans, etc.) are baked on one level.
Cakes and pastries at different heights may brown at an uneven rate at first. If this occurs, please do not change the temperature set- ting. Different rates of browning even out as baking progresses.
2 With longer baking times, the oven can be switched off about
10 minutes before the end of baking time, to make use of the residual heat. Unless otherwise stated, the values given in the tables assume that cooking is started with the oven cold.

Roasting
Oven function: CONVENTIONAL or ROTITHERM
Insert the grease filter when roasting!
Roasting dishes
Any heat-resistant ovenware is suitable to use for roasting (please read the manufacturer's instructions).
Large roasting joints can be roasted directly in the roasting tray or on the oven shelf with the roasting tray placed below it.
For all lean meats, we recommend roasting these in a roasting tin with a lid. This will 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.
3 Tips on using the roasting chart
The information given in the following table is for guidance only.
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 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
Oven function: SLOW COOK.
With the oven function SLOW COOK, meat becomes beautifully tender and remains particularly succulent.
We recommend SLOW COOK for pieces of tender, lean meat and fish. SLOW COOK is not suitable for pot roasts or fatty roast pork, for exam-
ple. The oven heats up to the selected or pre-set temperature. When this
temperature is reached, an acoustic signal sounds. After that the oven automatically switches to a lower temperature to continue cooking.
We recommend SLOW COOK ONE for smaller pieces of meat, e.g. steaks. SLOW COOK TWO
is recommended for larger pieces of meat, e.g. fillet
of beef.
1 Important: Insert the grease filter when roasting.
3 When using the SLOW COOK oven function, always cook dishes uncov-
ered without a cover.
1. Sear the meat to be roasted in a pan on each side over a very high heat
for 1-2 mins.
2. Place meat in a roasting dish or directly on the over shelf with a with a tray underneath to catch the fat.
3. Place in the oven. Select oven function SLOW COOK, if necessary, select SLOW COOK TWO using the button and cook until done (see Table).

for 5 minutes.
For grilling, use both the oven shelf and the roasting tray together.
The grilling times are guidelines.
Grilling is particularly suitable for flat pieces of meat or fish.

PRESERVING
When making preserves, only use commercially available preserve jars
of the same size.
Jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins are not
suitable.
When making preserves, use the first shelf position from the bot-
tom.
Use the baking tray for making preserves. There is enough room on
this for up to six 1-litre preserving jars.
The jars should all be filled to the same level and clamped shut.
Place the jars on the baking tray in such a way that they are not
touching each other.
Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray, so that there is
sufficient moisture in the oven.
As soon as the liquid in the first jars begins to simmer (with 1--
litrejars after about 35-60 minutes), switch off the oven or reduce the temperature to 100 °C (see table).
