Follow these instructions when using the appliance.
ATTENTION!
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.
The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking
compartment leads to corrosion.
▶
Always wipe away the condensation after cooking.
▶
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

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.
If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will not close
properly when the appliance is in operation. This may
damage the front of adjacent kitchen units.
▶
Keep the seal clean at all times.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may
damage it.
▶
Do not place or hang objects on the appliance door.
▶
Clean the appliance on a regular basis and

en Environmental protection and saving energy
3 Environmental protection and saving energy
Help protect the environment by using your appliance
in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of
reusable materials properly.
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.
Information about current disposal methods are
available from your specialist dealer or local authority.
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 en-
¡
ergy used by up to 20%.
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking
tins.
These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
¡
larly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
This will maintain the temperature in the cooking
¡
compartment and eliminate 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 10minutes 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 will save the energy that would otherwise be
¡
required to defrost it.

16.2 Tips for keeping acrylamide levels low during cooking
Acrylamide is dangerous to your health and is produced in particular when you cook cereal and potato
products at high temperatures.
Dish Tip
General ¡ Keep cooking times as
short as possible.
¡ Brown dishes until they
are golden brown and
not too dark.
¡ Use large, thick pieces
of food. These contain
less acrylamide.
Baked items and biscuits ¡ Set the temperature for
hot air to max. 180°C.
¡ Brush baked items
and biscuits with egg
or egg yolk. This reduces the production
of acrylamide.
Dish Tip
Oven chips ¡ Spread the chips out
evenly and in a single
layer on the baking
tray.
¡ Cook at least 400g at
once on a baking tray
so that the chips do
not dry out.
16.3 Defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave
Recommended settings for defrosting, heating and
cooking with the microwave.
The cooking time depends on the cookware, as well as
on the temperature, composition and quantity of the
food. This is why ranges are given in the tables. Begin
with the lower value and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time. It may be that you have different
quantities from those specified in the tables. There is a
rule of thumb for this: Double the amount = almost
double the time, half the amount = half the time.
Tips on defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave
Follow these tips for good results when defrosting,
heating and cooking with the microwave.
Issue Tip
You want to prepare a different amount than that indicated in the table.
Increase or reduce the
cooking times using the
following rule of thumb:
¡ Double the amount =
almost double the
cooking time
¡ Half the amount = half
the cooking time
Defrosting with the microwave
Recommended settings for defrosting food and dishes.
Note:
Preparation tips
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware without a lid.
¡ Turn or stir the food two or three times during the defrosting time. When turning, remove any liquid that escapes
during defrosting.
¡ After defrosting, leave the food to rest for 10–60ºminutes.
¡ Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken or fatty outer layers of roasts can be covered with small
pieces of aluminium foil. The foil must not touch the cooking compartment walls. You can remove the foil halfway
through the defrosting time.

Note:
Preparation tips
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. You can also use a plate or microwave film to cover the dish. Take ready
meals out of the packaging.
¡ Distribute the food flat in the cookware. Food which lies flat cooks more quickly than food which is piled high.
¡ Turn or stir the food two or three times during the defrosting time.
¡ After heating, leave the food to rest for 1–2ºminutes.
¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cookware can become very hot. Use oven gloves.

WARNING‒Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is
heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the
surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little, the
hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter.
▶
Always place a spoon in the container when heating
liquids. This will prevent delayed boiling.

ATTENTION!
Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment
will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or
the inner door pane.

16.4 Cakes and baked items
Recommended settings for cakes and baked items.
The temperature and baking time depend on the consistency and amount of the mixture. This is why ranges
are given in the tables. Begin with the lower value and,
if necessary, use a higher setting the 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.
Issue Tip
You want your cake to
rise evenly.
You do not want small
baked items to stick to
each other when baking.
Determine whether the
cake is ready.
¡ Only grease the base
of the springform cake
tin.
¡ After baking, use a
knife to carefully
loosen the cake from
the baking tin.
Leave a minimum clearance of 2cm around
each item to be baked.
This allows enough space
for the baked items to expand and brown on all
sides.
Push a cocktail stick into
the highest point on the
cake. If no dough sticks
to the wood, the cake is
ready.

16.5 Roasting and grilling
Recommended settings for roasting and grilling
The temperature and roasting time depend on the type
and amount of food being cooked. This is why ranges
are given in the tables. Begin with the lower value and,
if necessary, use a higher setting the next time.
Roasting in cookware
If you prepare dishes in cookware, you can remove
them from the cooking compartment more easily and
serve them directly in the cookware. When preparing
food in cookware with a lid, the cooking compartment
remains cleaner.
General information about roasting in cookware
¡ Use heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware.
¡ Metal roasting dishes are not suitable for roasting
with microwaves.
¡ Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
¡ Check in advance whether the cookware fits in the
cooking compartment.
¡ Glass cookware is best.
Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking. The glass may crack if placed on a cold or wet
surface.
¡ The cookware can become very hot. Use oven
gloves to take the cookware out of the oven.
¡ Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roast-
ing dishes.
Cookware without lid
Use a deep roasting dish.
¡ Meat, poultry and fish can also become crispy in a
covered roasting dish. Use a roasting dish with a
glass lid. If necessary, set a higher temperature.
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 at the rear, so that the hot steam can escape away from you.
▶
Keep children at a safe distance.
Notes
¡ Lean meat or pot roast
– Add liquid to the cookware so that it is approx.
1/2 cm deep, e.g. water, wine, vinegar or similar
liquid.
The amount of liquid depends on the type of
meat, what the cookware is made of and on
whether or not a lid is used.
More liquid needs to be added to enamelled or
dark metal roasting pan than for glass cookware.
Add slightly more liquid for pot roasts.
– During roasting, the liquid in the roasting dish will
evaporate. Carefully add liquid as necessary.
– Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking
time.
¡ Fish
– When steaming fish, add one to three table-
spoons of liquid to the cookware, e.g. lemon
juice or vinegar.
Grilling
Grill foods that should be crispy.
¡ Do not grill food with the oven door open.
¡ Do not preheat.
¡ Use food to be grilled that is of a similar weight and
thickness.
This allows the food to be grilled to brown evenly
and remain succulent and juicy.
¡ Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack.
¡ Use grill tongs to turn the grilled items.
If you pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run
out and it will become dry.
¡ Do not add salt until after the meat has been grilled.
Salt draws water from the meat.
Note:Dark meat, such as beef, browns more quickly
than lighter-coloured meat, such as veal or pork. When
grilling light-coloured meat or fish, these often only
brown slightly on the surface, although they are cooked
and juicy on the inside.
The grill element switches on and off continuously. This
is normal. The frequency of this depends on the grill
level that is set.
Smoke may be produced when grilling.
Tips for roasting and braising
Follow these tips for good results when roasting and
braising.
Cookware with lid
¡ Use a suitable lid that seals well.
¡ When roasting meat, there should be at least 3 cm
between the food and the lid as the meat may expand.
Issue Tip
Prevent lean meat from
drying out.
¡ Coat lean meat with fat
or oil as required and
cover it with strips of
bacon.
