Uses, Tables and Tips
Baking
Use the BAKING, FAN COOKING or CONVENTIONAL oven functions for
baking.
Baking tins
• Cake tins made of dark metal and coated tins are suitable for CONVENTIONAL.
• Baking tins made of light metal are also suitable for BAKING and FAN
COOKING.
Shelf positions
• Baking with BAKING or CONVENTIONAL is only possible on one shelf
position at a time.
• With FAN COOKING you can bake on up to three baking trays at
once:
36
1 Baking tray
e.g., shelf position 3
2 Baking trays:
Shelf positions 1 and 4
1 Baking tin:
e.g., shelf position 1
3 Baking trays:
Shelf positions 1, 3 and 5
General information
3
• Remove the fat filter when baking, as otherwise the baking time is
longer and the surface will brown unevenly.
• Always count the shelf positions from the bottom upwards.
• Insert baking sheets with the bevelled edge to the front!
• Always place cake tins in the middle of the shelf.
• With BAKING or CONVENTIONAL you can also bake with two tins at
the same time by placing them side by side on the shelf. There is no
significant increase in baking time.
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.
• When using for the first time, we recommend setting the lower temperature, and only if necessary, e.g. if increased browning is required
or the cooking time is too long, select a higher temperature.
• 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 position 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.
For longer cooking times switch off the oven approx. 10 minutes before
2
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 manufacturer's instructions!).
• If the dish has plastic handles, check that they are heat-resistant (refer 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
pieces 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).
Tip: The oven will be less dirty if you always use a dish for roasting!
3
Shelf positions
• Please see the following table for the shelf positions to be used.
44
Notes on the roasting table
3
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.
• Generally the CONVENTIONAL function is particularly suitable for
very lean meat such as fish or game. For all other types of meat (especially poultry) we recommend the ROTITHERM function.
• To stop meat juices or fat burning onto dishes or the oven, we recommend adding a little liquid to the roasting dish.
• Turn the joint as required (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
Tip: Baste large joints and poultry several times during cooking with
3
the meat juices. This will produce better roasting results.
Switch off the oven approx. 10 minutes before the end of the cooking
2
time to make use of the residual heat.

tions!
Ovenware for grilling
• Use the shelf unit and universal tray together for grilling.

• For grilling flat foods you should mainly use the 4th shelf position
from the bottom.
Notes on the grilling table
The grilling times are only for guidance and will vary depending on the
type and quality of meat or fish.
• Grilling is particularly suitable for flat pieces of meat and fish.
• Turn the food halfway through the grilling time.

Bio-Functions
The low temperatures that can be set on this oven enable meat to be
cooked so that it is particularly tender and juicy. Yoghurt can also be
made, dough proven and fruit dried in the oven.
Caution: The suggested temperature must be changed for all bio-
1
functions!
When roasting at low temperatures you will need up to 20 percent less
2
energy than when roasting conventionally.
Low Temperature Roasting
Use the ROTITHERM oven function for low temperature roasting.
Important: Use the fat filter when roasting!
1
Ovenware for roasting
• Any heat-resistant dish is suitable for roasting.
• If the dish has plastic handles, check that they are heat-resistant.
• When roasting at low temperatures, always roast uncovered without
a lid.
Shelf positions
• Use the 1st shelf position from the bottom for low temperature
roasting.
50
General information
Roasting is performed in 2 stages:
• Select a high temperature for browning.
• Then reduce to a lower temperature.
Notes on low temperature roasting
The roasting times are only for guidance and are dependent on the type
and quality of the meat or fish.
• The thicker and heavier a piece of meat, the longer the browning
time and subsequent final roasting time.
• It is only necessary to turn whole poultry.
• Only add vegetables after approx. 2/3 of the browning time.
• Once the item has been browned do not open the oven door
again!
(Turn poultry first.) The loss of heat would significantly extend the
roasting time.
1. Prepare meat as usual (wash, dry, season, tie into specific shape if required, etc.).
2. Select the ROTITHERM oven function.
3. Change the suggested temperature to the roasting temperature for
browning according to the table.
4. At the end of the browning time change the setting to the final
roasting temperature.

are unsuitable.
Shelf positions
• Use the 1st shelf position from the bottom for preserving.
Notes on preserving
• Use the baking tray for preserving. There is room for up to 6 preserv-
ing jars each with a capacity of 1 litre on this tray.
• The preserving jars should all be filled to the same level and closed.
• Position the preserving jars on the baking tray so that they do not
come into contact with one another.
• Pour about 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray so that there is
sufficient moisture in the oven.
• As soon as bubbles begin to appear in the liquid in the first jars
(for 1-litre jars this takes about 35-60 minutes), switch off the oven
or reduce the temperature to 100 °C (see table).

When do you incur costs even during the warranty period?
• if you could have remedied the fault using the fault table (see section
"What to do if ...“),
• if the customer service technician has to make several journeys be-
cause he was not provided with all the relevant information before
his visit and therefore, for example, has to fetch spare parts. These
multiple trips can be avoided if you prepare for your phone call as
described above.
