en Causes of damage
]Causes of damage
Causes of damage
General information
Caution!
■ Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on
the cooking compartment floor: do not place
accessories on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover the cooking compartment floor with any
sort of foil or greaseproof paper. Do not place
ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a
temperature of over 50 ºC has been set. This will
cause heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting
times will no longer be correct and the enamel will
be damaged.
■ Aluminium foil: Aluminium foil in the cooking
compartment must not come into contact with the
door glass. This could cause permanent
discolouration of the door glass.
■ Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour
water into the cooking compartment when it is hot.
This will cause steam. The temperature change can
cause damage to the enamel.
■ Moisture in the cooking compartment: Over an
extended period of time, moisture in the cooking
compartment may lead to corrosion. Allow the
cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep
moist food in the closed cooking compartment for
extended periods of time. Do not store food in the
cooking compartment.
■ Cooling with the appliance door open: Following
operation at high temperatures, only allow the
cooking compartment to cool down with the door
closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door.
Even if the door is only left open a crack, the front of
nearby furniture may become damaged over time.
Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the
door open if a lot of moisture was produced whilst
the oven was operating.
■ Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies,
do not pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit
juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that
cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper
universal pan.
■ Extremely dirty seal: If the seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly during
operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Always keep the seal clean. Never
operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or
missing.
■ Appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not
sit on the appliance door, or place or hang anything
on it. Do not place any cookware or accessories on
the appliance door.
■ Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance
model, accessories can scratch the door panel
when closing the appliance door. Always insert the
accessories into the cooking compartment as far as
they will go.
■ Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the
appliance by the door handle. The door handle
cannot support the weight of the appliance and
could break.
Microwave
Caution!
■ Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door.
Sparks can irreparably damage the glass on the
inside of the door.
■ Combining accessories: Do not combine the wire
rack with the universal pan. Sparks may be created if
they are inserted directly on top of one another. Only
insert them into their own shelf level.
■ Microwave only: The universal pan and baking tray
are unsuitable when using the microwave only. If you
use either of these, this may create sparks, which
may damage the cooking compartment. Place
cookware on the wire rack provided, or place it in
the microwave and set a type of heating.
■ Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the
appliance. They damage the appliance by producing
sparks.
■ Operating the microwave without food: Operating the
appliance without food in the cooking compartment
may lead to overloading. Never switch on the
microwave unless there is food inside. The short
crockery test is the exception to this rule.
~ "Microwave" on page 19
■ Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave output
too high. Use a maximum microwave output of 600
watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass
plate. The door panels may crack if overloaded.

Envi r onmental pr ot ect i on
Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient.
Here you can find tips on how to save even more
energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose
of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
■ Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the
recipe or in the tables in the operating instructions.
■ Leave frozen food to defrost before placing it in the
cooking compartment.
■ Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
when the appliance is in use.
■ It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The cooking compartment stays warm. This reduces
the baking time for the second cake. You can place
two cake tins next to each other in the cooking
compartment.
■ Use baking tins that are dark-coloured, painted black
or have an enamel coating. These absorb the heat
particularly well.
■ Remove any unnecessary accessories from the
cooking compartment.
■ For longer cooking times, you can switch the
appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and use the residual heat to finish
cooking.
Environmentally-friendly disposal

Microwave en
^Microwave
Mi cr owave
You can use the microwave to cook, heat up or defrost
food quickly. The microwave can be used on its own, or
in combination with a type of heating.
To ensure optimum use of the microwave, please
observe the notes on cookware and familiarise yourself
with the data in the application tables at the end of the
instruction manual.
Cookware
Not all cookware is suitable for microwaves. To ensure
that your food is heated and the appliance is not
damaged, only use cookware that is suitable for
microwaves.
Heat-resistant cookware made of glass, glass ceramic,
porcelain or heat-resistant plastic is suitable. These
materials allow microwaves to pass through. You can
also use ceramic if it has been fully glazed and has no
cracks.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you having
to transfer food from one dish to another. You should
only use cookware with decorative gold or silver trim if
the manufacturer guarantees that they are suitable for
use in microwaves.
To bake in combined operation, you can use ordinary
metal baking tins. This means that the cake is also
browned from below.
Metal dishes are not suitable for other applications.
Metal does not allow microwaves to pass through. Food
in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must
be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking compartment
walls and the inside of the door. Sparks may irreparably
damage the glass on the inside of the door.
Cookware test
Never switch on the microwave unless there is food
inside. The short cookware test is the only exception to
this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether
your cookware is suitable for use in the microwave.
1. Heat the empty cookware at maximum power for ½
to 1 minute.
2. Check the temperature of the cookware during this
time.
The cookware should remain cold or warm to the touch.
The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks
are generated.
In this case, stop the test.
:Warning – Risk of burns!
The accessible parts become very hot when in
operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a
safe distance.
Accessories included
Only the wire rack provided is suitable when using the
microwave only. If you use the universal pan or the
baking tray, this may create sparks, which may damage
the cooking compartment.
When using the appliance in combination with the
microwave or "Dishes" mode, you can use the universal
pan, baking tray or any other accessories that have
been included with the appliance.
When using the microwave, it is best to insert
accessories at level 1, unless otherwise specified.
Microwave power settings
A variety of microwave power settings that are suitable
for different types of food and food preparation are

Notes
■ Slight differences in colour on the front of the
appliance are caused by the use of different
materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
■ Shadows on the door panels, which look like
streaks, are caused by reflections made by the
interior lighting.
■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures.This
can cause some slight colour variation. This is
normal and does not affect operation.
The edges of thin trays cannot be completely
enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough.
This does not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Keeping the appliance clean
Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt
immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not
build up.
:Warning – Risk of fire!
Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch
fire. Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the
food remnants from the cooking compartment, heating
elements and accessories.

You can use the "Assist" operating mode to prepare a
wide variety of food. The appliance selects the optimal
settings for you.
To achieve good results, the cooking compartment
must not be too hot for the type of food you have
selected. If it is, a message will appear on the display.
Allow the cooking compartment to cool down and start
again.
Information on the settings
■ The cooking result depends on the quality of the
food and the size and type of cookware. For an
optimal cooking result, use food that is in good
condition and chilled meat only. For frozen food, use
food straight out of the freezer only.
■ For some food, a temperature, heating mode and
cooking time is suggested. The temperature and the
cooking time can be changed according to your
requirements.
■ For other dishes, you will be asked to enter the
weight. Always enter the total weight unless the
appliance asks for something different. The
appliance will then apply the time and temperature
settings for you.
It is not possible to set weights outside of the
intended weight range.
■ When roasting dishes for which the appliance will
apply the temperature selection for you,
temperatures of up to 300 °C can be saved.
Therefore, make sure that you use cookware that is
sufficiently heat resistant.
■ Information is provided, e.g. on cookware, shelf
position or the addition of liquid when cooking meat.
Some food requires turning or stirring, etc., during
cooking. This is shown in the display shortly after
operation starts. An audible signal will remind you at
the right time.
■ Information on the right kind of cookware to use and
tips and tricks for the preparation can be found at
the end of the instruction manual. ~ "Tested for you
in our cooking studio" on page 34
Microwave
For some food, the microwave is automatically
activated. Using the microwave significantly reduces
cooking time – cooking time is virtually cut in half. The
appliance instructs you to use cookware that is suitable
for the microwave. The "Microwave" section provides
information on the type of cookware that is suitable.

Here, you can find a selection of dishes and the ideal
settings for them. We will show you which type of
heating and temperature are best suited to your dish.
You will get information on suitable cooking
accessories and the height at which they should be
placed in the oven. You will also get tips about
cookware and preparation methods.
Note: A lot of steam can build up in the cooking
compartment when cooking food.
Your appliance is very energy-efficient and radiates very
little heat to its surroundings during operation. Due to
the high difference in temperature between the
appliance interior and the external parts of the
appliance, condensation may build up on the door,
control panel or adjacent kitchen cabinet panels. This is
a normal physical phenomenon. Condensation can be
reduced by preheating the oven or opening the door
carefully.
Silicone moulds
For the best cooking results, we recommend darkcoloured metal baking tins/dishes.
Nevertheless, if you wish to use silicone moulds, follow
the manufacturer's instructions and recipes. Silicone
moulds are often smaller than normal baking tins.
Quantity and recipe specifications may vary.
Baking
Here, you can find recommended settings for many
dishes.
Also refer to the notes in the section on allowing dough
to rise.
Only use original accessories supplied with your
appliance. These have been tailored to the cooking
compartment and the operating modes of your
appliance.
Baking in combination with a microwave
If you bake in combination with a microwave, you can
reduce the cooking time considerably.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Observe the notes on cookware
suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 19
In combined operation, you can use conventional
baking tins made from metal. If sparks form between
the baking tin and the wire rack, check whether the
baking tin is clean on the outside. Change the position
of the baking tin on the wire rack. If this does not help,
continue baking without the microwave. The baking
time will be extended.
If you use baking tins/dishes made from plastic,
ceramic or glass, the baking time indicated in the
settings tables will be reduced. The cake will not brown
as much underneath.

Tested for you in our cooking studio en
Baking in combination with a microwave is only
possible on one level.
Shelf positions
Use the indicated shelf positions.
Baking on one level
When baking on one level, use the following shelf
position:
■ Level 1
You can also prepare soufflés in a water bath in the
universal pan. To do so, slide the universal pan in at
level 1.
Baking on two levels
Use 4D hot air. Baked items that are placed into the
oven on trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time
will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
■ Universal pan: Level 3
Baking tray: Level 1
■ Baking tins/dishes on the wire rack
First wire rack: Level 3
Second wire rack: Level 1
By preparing several dishes at the same time, you can
make energy savings of up to 45 per cent. Position
baking tins/dishes next to one another or offset and
vertically stacked in the cooking compartment.
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack
Slide the wire rack in with the embossed "microwave"
facing the appliance door, and the curved lip pointing
downwards. Always place ovenware, tins and dishes on
the wire rack.
Universal pan or baking tray
Slide the universal pan or the baking tray in carefully as
far as the limit stop with the bevelled edge facing the
appliance door.
When baking moist cakes or pastries with many
toppings, use the universal pan so that any excess
liquid does not overflow and make the cooking
compartment dirty.
Baking tins
Dark- coloured metal baking tins are most suitable.
Tinplate baking tins, ceramic dishes and glass dishes
extend baking time and mean that the baked item will
not brown evenly.
Greaseproof paper
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the
selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof paper to
size.
Recommended setting values
The table lists the optimal heating type for various
baked items. The temperature and baking time depend
on the amount and consistency of the dough/mixture.
For this reason, the table specifies setting ranges. Try
using the lower values to start with. A lower temperature
will result in more even browning. You can use a higher
setting next time if necessary.
Note: Baking times cannot be reduced by using higher
temperatures. Cakes or small baked items would only
be cooked on the outside, and would not be fully baked
in the middle.
The setting values apply to food that is placed into a
cold cooking compartment; by doing this, you can
make energy savings of up to 20 per cent.If you preheat
the oven, you can reduce the indicated baking times by
several minutes.
Preheating is necessary for selected food, and this is
indicated in the table. Do not place your food or
accessories into the cooking compartment until it has
finished preheating.
If you wish to follow one of your own recipes when
baking, you should use the setting values listed for
similar baked items in the table as reference.Additional
information can be found in the baking tips listed after
the settings table.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will ensure that you achieve the best
possible cooking results and energy savings of up to
20 per cent.

Roasting and braising
Here, you can find information on roasting and braising
poultry and meat. You can find the ideal settings for
many dishes in the settings tables.
Poultry
For duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of
the wings. This allows the fat to run out.
If using duck breast, score the skin. Do not turn duck
breasts.
When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side or
the skin side is underneath at first.
Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you
baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter,
salted water or orange juice.
Meat
Baste lean meat with fat as required or cover it with
strips of bacon.
Score the rind crosswise. If you turn the joint when
cooking, ensure that the rind is underneath at first.
When the joint is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to
rest for another 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment. This allows the meat juices to be better
distributed. Wrap the joint in aluminium foil if necessary.
The recommended resting time is not included in the
cooking time indicated.
Roasting on the wire rack
On the wire rack, poultry and meat will become very
crispy on all sides. Roasting on the wire rack is well
suited for larger poultry or for multiple pieces at the
same time.
Depending on the size and type of the meat, add up to
^ litres of water to the universal pan. Any dripping fat
and meat juices will be caught. You can prepare a
sauce using these meat juices. In addition, less smoke
is generated, and the cooking compartment stays
cleaner.
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards. In addition, slide the
Place the baking tray in the middle of the accessories, not directly against the back wall.
Protruding greaseproof paper can affect the air circulation. Always cut greaseproof paper to size.
Ensure that the baking tin does not stand directly in front of the openings in the cooking compartment back
wall.
When baking small items, you should use similar sizes and thicknesses wherever possible.
Always select 4D hot air when baking on several levels. Baked items that are placed into the oven on trays or
in baking tins/dishes at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
Use a lower temperature and bake slightly longer; if necessary, add slightly less liquid. For cakes with a moist
topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or breadcrumbs and then place the topping on top.
Allow the cake to cool down for 5 to 10 minutes after baking. If it still sticks, carefully loosen the cake around
the edges again using a knife. Turn the cake tin upside down again and cover it several times with a cold, wet
cloth. Next time, grease the baking tin/dish and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
universal pan in at the shelf position underneath with
the slanted edge facing the appliance door.
Roasting and braising in cookware
It is more convenient to roast and braise meat in
cookware. You can take the joint out of the cooking
compartment more easily in the cookware, and prepare
the sauce in the cookware itself.
Only use cookware which is suitable for use in an oven.
Check whether the cookware fits in the cooking
compartment.
Glass cookware is most suitable. Place hot glass
cookware onto a dry mat after cooking. If the surface is
damp or cold, the glass may crack.
Add in a little liquid for roasting if the meat is lean. A
covering of approx. ^ cm depth should be applied to
the base of any glass cookware.
The amount of liquid is dependent on the type of meat,
the cookware material and also on whether or not a lid
is used. If preparing meat in an enamelled or dark metal
roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if
cooked in glass cookware.
The steam evaporates in the cookware when roasting.
Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or
aluminium reflect heat like a mirror and are therefore
not particularly suitable. The meat cooks more slowly
and will not brown so much. Use a higher temperature
and/or a longer cooking time.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for your
roasting cookware.
Roasting in uncovered cookware
It is best to use a deep roasting tin/dish for roasting
poultry and meat. Place the tin/dish onto the wire rack.
If you do not have any suitable cookware, use the
universal pan.
Braising in covered cookware
When preparing food with covered cookware, the
cooking compartment remains considerably cleaner.
Ensure that the lid fits well and closes properly. Place
the cookware onto the wire rack.
37
en Tested for you in our cooking studio
The distance between the meat and the lid must be at
least 3 cm. The meat may rise.
Very hot steam may escape when opening the lid after
cooking. Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot steam
can escape away from you.
If necessary, braise the meat first by searing it. Add
water, wine, vinegar or a similar liquid to the braising
liquid. A covering at least 2 cm deep should be applied
to the base of the cookware.
The steam evaporates in the cookware when roasting.
Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
Roasting in combination with a microwave
Certain foodstuffs can be prepared in combination with
a microwave. The cooking time is considerably reduced
by doing so.
As opposed to conventional operation, the cooking time
is based on the total weight when roasting in
combination with a microwave.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in
the settings tables, the following basic rule applies:
double the quantity equates to roughly double the
cooking time.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Roasting dishes made from metal
or Römertopf dishes are only suitable for roasting
without using the microwave. Observe the notes on
cookware suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave"
on page 19
Caution!
If you use an oven bag, do not seal it shut with metal
clips. Use kitchen string. Do not use metal skewers for
roulades. Sparks may form as a result.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for
poultry and meat. Temperature and cooking time
depend on the quantity, composition and temperature
of the food. Different settings ranges are indicated for
this reason. Try using the lower values at first. You can
increase the temperature next time if necessary.
The setting values are based on the assumption that
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry and meat are
placed into a cold cooking compartment. By doing so,
you can make energy savings of up to 20 per cent. If
you preheat the oven, the indicated cooking times will
be reduced by several minutes.
In the table, you can find specifications for poultry and
meat with default values for the weight. If you wish to
prepare heavier poultry or meat, use the lower
temperature in every case. If roasting several joints, use
the weight of the heaviest piece as a basis for
determining the cooking time. The individual pieces
should be approximately equal in size.
A general rule: the larger the poultry or piece of meat is,
the lower the cooking temperature and the longer the
cooking time.
Turn the poultry and meat after approx. ^ to Z of the
indicated time.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will achieve the best possible
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per
cent.
Cooking time calculation (e. g. 20+35):
Please calculate the cooking time with 20 minutes per
500 g meat + 35 minutes additional time. For 1,5 kg
the calculated cooking time would be 95 minutes.
Cooking time range (e. g. 10-15):
The food is done within the stated minutes.

Grilling
Here, you can find information on grilling poultry, meat
and fish, as well as toast. You can find the ideal settings
for certain dishes in the settings tables.
Grilling with circulated air
Circulated air grilling is very well suited to the
preparation of whole poultry, fish, and also meat, e.g.
roast pork with crackling.
Poultry
For duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of
the wings. This allows the fat to run out.
If using duck breast, score the skin. Do not turn duck
breasts.

When the joint is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to
rest for another 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment. This allows the meat juices to be better
distributed. Wrap the joint in aluminium foil if necessary.
The recommended resting time is not included in the
cooking time indicated.
Fish
Fish cooked whole does not have to be turned. Place
the whole fish into the cooking compartment in
swimming position with the dorsal fin facing upwards.
Placing half a potato or a small oven-proof container in
the stomach cavity of the fish will provide stability.
You can tell when the fish is cooked because the dorsal
fin can be removed easily.
Roasting on the wire rack
On the wire rack, poultry and meat will become very
crispy on all sides. Roasting on the wire rack is well
suited for larger poultry or for multiple pieces at the

the tin/dish onto the wire rack. If you do not have any
suitable cookware, use the universal pan.
Covered cookware
When cooking with covered cookware, the cooking
compartment remains considerably cleaner. Ensure that
the lid fits well and closes properly. Place the cookware
onto the wire rack.
The distance between the meat and the lid must be at
least 3 cm. The meat may rise.
Very hot steam may escape when opening the lid after
cooking. Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot steam
can escape away from you.
If necessary, braise the meat first by searing it. Add
water, wine, vinegar or a similar liquid to the braising
liquid. A covering approx. 1-2 cm deep should be
applied to the base of the cookware.
The steam evaporates in the cookware when roasting.
Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
Meat can also become crispy in a covered roasting
dish. To do so, use a roasting dish with a glass lid and
set a higher temperature.
Roasting in combination with a microwave
Certain foodstuffs can be prepared in combination with
a microwave. The cooking time is considerably reduced
by doing so.
As opposed to conventional operation, the cooking time
is based on the total weight when roasting in
combination with a microwave.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in
the settings tables, the following basic rule applies:
double the quantity equates to roughly double the
cooking time.

Tested for you in our cooking studio en
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Roasting dishes made from metal
or Römertopf dishes are only suitable for roasting
without using the microwave. Observe the notes on
cookware suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave"
on page 19
Caution!
If you use an oven bag, do not seal it shut with metal
clips. Use kitchen string. Do not use metal skewers for
roulades. Sparks may form as a result.
Grilling flat pieces
Flat pieces of poultry, meat and fish, such as steaks,
drumsticks and burgers, can be prepared well using the
"Grill" heating type. Excellent results are also achieved
when grilling toast.
Grilling
Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards. In addition, slide the
universal pan in at least one shelf position lower, with
the slanted edge facing the appliance door. Any
dripping fat will be caught.
When grilling, try wherever possible to use pieces of
food which are of a similar thickness and weight. This
will allow them to brown evenly and remain succulent
and juicy. Place the food to be grilled directly onto the
wire rack.
Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. 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.
Notes
■ The grill element switches itself continuously on and
off; this is normal. The grill setting determines how
frequently this occurs.
■ Smoke may be produced when grilling.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for your
poultry, meat and fish, in addition to toast. Temperature
and cooking time depend on the quantity, composition
and temperature of the food. Settings ranges are
indicated for this reason. Try using the lower values at
first. You can use a higher setting next time if
necessary.
The setting values are based on the assumption that
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry, meat and fish
are placed into a cold cooking compartment.
In the table, you can find specifications for poultry, meat
and fish with default values for the weight. If you wish to
prepare heavier poultry, meat or fish, use the lower
temperature in every case. If roasting several joints, use
the weight of the heaviest piece as a basis for
determining the cooking time. The individual pieces
should be approximately equal in size.
A general rule: the larger the poultry, meat or fish is, the
lower the cooking temperature and the longer the
cooking time.
Turn the poultry, meat and fish after approx.^ to Z of
the indicated time.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will achieve the best possible
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per
cent.
Cooking time calculation (e. g. 20+35):
Please calculate the cooking time with 20 minutes per
500 g meat + 35 minutes additional time. For 1,5 kg
the calculated cooking time would be 95 minutes.
Cooking time range (e. g. 10-15):
The food is done within the stated minutes.

Preparing food in a microwave is ideal if time is of the
essence.
Place the cookware onto the wire rack. Always use
heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for use in
microwaves. Observe the notes on cookware suitable
for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 19
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards.
Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food
which is piled high. Arrange the food as flat as possible
in the cookware for this reason.
Cereal products foam a lot during cooking. For all
cereal products, such as rice, use tall cookware with a
lid.
This will help the food retain its flavour. This means that
you can use salt and seasonings sparingly.
If you cannot find any indicated settings for your food
quantity, you should extend or reduce the cooking time
according to the following basic rule: double the
quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
Stir or turn the food two to three times during this time.
After heating up the food, leave it to rest for two to three
minutes to compensate for the temperature difference.
The food transfers heat to the cookware. It can become
very hot when only using the microwave for preparation.
Shelf position
Slide the wire rack in at level 1 with the cookware on it.
Steaming fish in the microwave
You can also steam fish in the microwave.
To do so, use enclosed cookware that is suitable for
microwave use or use a plate or microwave film to
cover the dish. Observe the notes on cookware suitable
for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 19
This will help retain the flavour and means you can use
salt and seasonings sparingly. If cooking fish whole,
add one to three tablespoons of water or lemon juice.
After cooking, leave the fish to rest for another 2-3
minutes to compensate for the temperature difference.
Take ready-to-eat meals out of the packaging. You can
cook more quickly and evenly using cookware which is
suitable for use in microwaves.

Hot air eco and Top/bottom heating eco are intelligent
heating functions that allow you to gently cook meat,
fish and baked items. The appliance optimally controls
the supply of energy to the cooking compartment.The
food is cooked in phases using residual heat. This
means that it remains more succulent and browns less.
Depending on the method of preparation and the type
of food, it is possible to save energy. If you open the
appliance door before the food has finished cooking or
if you preheat the appliance, you may not be able to
achieve this result.
Only use genuine accessories for your appliance.
These have been tailored to the cooking compartment
and the operating modes of your appliance.Remove
any accessories that are not being used from the

Acrylamide in foodstuffs
crisps, chips, sliced bread, bread rolls, bread or fine
baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, spiced biscuit).
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato
products prepared at high temperatures, such as potato
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum
General■ Keep cooking times as short as possible.
■ Cook food until it is golden brown, but not too dark.
■ Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
BakingWith top/bottom heating at max. 200 °C.
With hot air at max. 180 °C.
BiscuitsWith top/bottom heating at max. 190 °C.
With hot air at max. 170 °C.
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chipsSpread out a single layer evenly on the baking tray. Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking tray so that
the chips do not dry out.
Slow cook
Slow cooking is a technique for cooking food over a
long period at low temperatures. For this reason, it is
also called "low-temperature cooking".
Slow cooking is ideal for all prime cuts (e.g. tender
portions of beef, veal, pork, lamb or poultry) which are
to be cooked "à point". The meat will remain succulent
and tender.
The benefit of this cooking method is that it allows lots
of scope for menu planning because slow-cooked meat
is easy to keep warm. You do not have to turn the meat
when cooking. Keep the appliance door closed in order
to maintain an even cooking climate.
Only use fresh, clean and hygienic meat without bones.
Carefully remove sinews and fat from around the edge.
Fat develops a strong, distinct flavour during slow
cooking. You can also use seasoned or marinated
meat. Do not use defrosted meat.
Meat can be carved immediately following slow
cooking. No standing time is required. Due to the
special cooking method, the meat looks pink, but is not
raw or undercooked.
Note: Delayed-start operation with an end time is not
possible for the slow cooking heating type.
Cookware
Use flat cookware, e.g. a glass/porcelain serving dish.
Place the cookware into the cooking compartment to
preheat it.
Always place the uncovered cookware onto the wire
rack at level 1.
You can find additional information in the tips on slow
cooking attached to the settings table.
Your appliance features the heating type "Slow cook".
Only start operation when the cooking compartment
has fully cooled down. Allow the cooking compartment
to warm up for around 10 minutes with the cookware
inside.
Sear the meat on the hotplate at a very high heat and
for a sufficiently long time on all sides, even on the
ends. Place into the preheated cookware right away.
Place the cookware containing the meat into the
cooking compartment once again and cook slowly.
Recommended setting values
The slow cooking temperature and cooking time are
dependent on the size, thickness and quality of the
meat. Different settings ranges are indicated for this
reason.

settings indicated in the table.
You can preserve fruit and vegetables using your
appliance.
:Warning – Risk of injury!
If the food is preserved incorrectly, the preserving jars
may burst. Follow the instructions for preserving.
Jars
Use only clean and undamaged preserving jars. Only
use heat-resistant, clean and undamaged rubber rings.
Check clips and clamps in advance.
For each preserving process, only use preserving jars
that are the same size and contain the same food. In
the cooking compartment, you can preserve the
contents of a maximum of six ^, 1 or 1^-litre
preserving jars at the same time. Do not use jars that
are larger or taller than this. The lids could rupture.
Preserving jars must not touch one another in the
cooking compartment during the preserving process.
Preparing fruit and vegetables
Ending the preserving process
Fruit
After a short while, small bubbles will form at short
intervals. Switch off the appliance once all preserving
jars are bubbling. Remove the jars from the cooking
compartment after the indicated cooling time.
Vegetables
After a short while, small bubbles will form at short
intervals. As soon as all preserving jars are bubbling,
reduce the temperature to 120 °C and allow the jars to
continue to bubble in the closed cooking compartment
as indicated in the table. After this time has elapsed,
switch off the appliance and make use of the residual
heat for several minutes as indicated in the table.
After preserving, remove the jars from the cooking
compartment and place them onto a clean cloth. Do not
place these hot jars onto a cold or damp surface, as
they may crack. Cover the preserving jars to protect
them from draughts. Only remove the clamps once the
jars are cold.
Only use fruit and vegetables that are in good condition.
Wash them thoroughly.
Peel, core and chop fruit and vegetables appropriate to
their type and fill the preserving jars with them up to
approx. 2 cm below the rim.
Recommended setting values
The indicated times in the settings table are average
values for preserving fruit and vegetables. They may be
influenced by room temperature, the number of jars,
quantity, heat and quality of the jar contents. The
Fruit
Fill the preserving jars with the fruit along with a hot,
skimmed sugar solution (approx. 400 ml for a 1-litre
jar). For one litre of water:
■ Approx. 250 g sugar for sweet fruit
■ Approx. 500 g sugar for sour fruit
specifications are based on 1-litre round jars. Before
you switch off the appliance or change the cooking
mode, check whether the contents of the jars are
bubbling as they should. The bubbling process starts
after approx. 30-60 minutes.
Vegetables
Fill the jars with the vegetables along with hot, boiled
water.
Wipe the rims of the jars, as they must be clean. Place
a damp rubber ring and a lid on each jar. Seal the jars
with clamps. Place the jars into the universal pan so
that they do not touch each other. Pour 500 ml hot

Prove dough
You can prove yeast dough in your appliance more
quickly than at room temperature. Use the top/bottom
heating type. Only start operation when the cooking
compartment has fully cooled down.
Always allow yeast dough to prove twice. Observe the
specifications in the settings tables for the 1st and 2nd
proving processes (dough fermentation and final
fermentation).
Dough fermentation
Use the settings indicated in the table and heat up the
appliance. Position the dough bowl on the wire rack.
Do not open the appliance door during the proving
process, as moisture will escape. Cover the dough with
a damp cloth.
Final fermentation
Place your baked item into the oven at the shelf position
indicated in the table.
If you want to preheat the oven, the final fermentation
takes place outside the appliance in a warm place.
Recommended setting values
The temperature and proving time are dependent on
the type and quantity of the ingredients. The values in
the table are therefore only meant to be average values.

Defrosting
Use the "Microwave" operation mode to defrost frozen
fruit, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish and baked items.
Remove the frozen food from its packaging and place it
onto the wire rack in cookware suitable for microwave
use. Observe the notes on cookware suitable for
microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 19
Slide the wire rack in with the imprint "Microwave"
facing the appliance door and the outer rail facing
downwards.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will allow you to achieve optimum
cooking results and save energy.
Recommended setting values
The times in the table are average values. They are
dependent on the quality, freezing temperature (-18 °C)
and composition of the food. Time ranges are indicated.
Set the shortest time first and then extend the time if
necessary. You can often achieve better results when
defrosting in several steps. These are indicated one
below the other in the table.
Tip: Items which were frozen flat or portioned defrost
faster than those frozen in a block.
Stir the food or turn it once or twice in between. Large
pieces of food should be turned several times.
Occasionally split the food or remove items which have
already defrosted from the cooking compartment.

Leave the defrosted food to rest for another 10 to 30
minutes in the appliance whilst it is switched off, so that
the temperature balances out.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in
the settings table, this basic rule will help: double the
quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
Using the microwave, you can heat food, or defrost and
heat it in a single step.
Take ready-to-eat meals out of the packaging. The food
will heat up more quickly and evenly in cookware that is
suitable for microwaves. The various components of a
dish may require different times to heat up.
Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food
which is piled high. Arrange the food as flat as possible
in the cookware for this reason. Food should not be
vertically stacked.
Cover the food. This will ensure better cooking results. If
you do not have a lid that fits your cookware, use a
plate or microwave film for this purpose.
Stir food two to three times during cooking and turn it if
necessary. After heating food up, leave it to rest for 1 to
2 minutes to compensate for the temperature
difference.
If you are heating up baby food, place the bottle onto
the wire rack without the teat or the lid. After heating up,
shake well or stir and be sure to check the temperature.
The food transfers heat to the cookware. It can become
very hot when only using the microwave for preparation.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in
the settings table, this basic rule will help: double the
quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
: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. When
heating, always place a spoon in the container. This will
prevent delayed boiling.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door. Sparks
can irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the
door.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the setting values for heating
various drinks and foodstuffs up in the microwave. The
times specified are only average values. These depend
on the cookware used, the quality, temperature and
composition of the food in question. Time ranges are
indicated. Set the shortest time first and then extend the
time if necessary.
The values in the table apply to food placed into a cold
cooking compartment.
If no values are indicated for your food, use similar
foods in the table as orientation.
Remove any accessories from the cooking
compartment which are not being used. This will ensure
optimum cooking results and will also save energy.
Wipe the cooking compartment clean after cooking.
