Baking
Do not use shelf height 2 when baking with the 3 Hot air operating mode. The air circulation would be impaired and this will have a negative effect on your baking.
Baking accessories
Baking tins
Use dark-coloured metal baking tins. Tinplate and glass dishes increase the baking time required and the cake will not brown evenly. If you wish to bake using tinplate tins and % Top/ bottom heat, you should use shelf height 1.
Always place a loaf tin diagonally and a round baking tin in the centre of the wire rack.
Baking trays
We recommend that you only use original baking trays, as these have been optimally designed for the cooking compartment and the operating modes.
Always carefully push the baking trays in as far as they will go. Make sure that the sloping edge of the baking tray is facing the appliance door.
Baking on two or more levels
If you are baking on several levels, you should preferably use baking trays and insert these at the same time.
Bear in mind that your items may brown at different rates on each level. The items on the top level will brown more quickly and can be taken out earlier.
If you wish to bake on two levels using a baking tray and a universal pan, you should insert the baking tray at shelf height 3 and the universal pan at shelf height 1.
Baking table for basic doughs/cake mixtures
The values in the table are guidelines and apply to enamelled baking trays and dark baking tins. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of dough/mixture and on the baking tin.
The values for bread dough apply to both dough placed on a tray and dough placed in a loaf tin.
We recommend that you set the lower of the specified temperatures the first time. Lower temperatures will generally allow more even browning.
If you are baking according to your own recipe, use similar recipes in the table as a guide.
Observe the notes in the table about preheating.

Tips and tricks
Roasting
: There is a risk of injury if you use roasting dishes that
are not heat-resistant!
Only use roasting dishes that are marked as being suitable for use in the oven.
Do not use shelf height 2 when roasting with 3 Hot air. This will adversely affect air circulation and your roasting results will not be as good.
Open roasting
For open roasting, a roasting dish without a lid is used.
Add liquid to the roasting dish if required. During roasting, the liquid in the roasting dish will evaporate. If necessary, carefully add more hot liquid.
When you are roasting using % Top/bottom heat, turn the roast approximately half to two thirds of the way through the roasting time.
Roasting in the universal pan
Juices escape from the roasting meat and are collected in the universal pan. You can use these juices as the basis for a tasty gravy.
You can also cook side dishes (e.g. vegetables) at the same time as roasting meat in the universal pan.
For smaller joints, you can use a smaller roasting dish instead of the universal pan. Place this directly on the wire rack.
Roasting with a lid
Roasting dishes with lids are used for this kind of roasting. This method is particularly suitable for pot roasts.
Roasting table
The roasting time and temperature depend on the size, height, type and quality of the item.
As a general rule: the larger the item, the lower the temperature and the longer the roasting time.
The information in the table is a guideline, and relates to items cooked without a lid. The values may vary depending on the type and quantity of the meat/fish and on the roasting dish.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first time. This will generally allow more even browning.
At the end of the roasting time, switch the oven off and leave the roast to rest for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking compartment with the door closed. The recommended rest time is not included in the given roasting times.
The information in the table is for food placed in a cold oven and for meat/fish taken directly from the refrigerator.
The cake is too light in colour Check the shelf height and the recommended bakeware. Place the baking tin on the wire
rack and not on the baking tray. Increase the baking time or the temperature.
The cake is too dark Check the shelf height. Shorten the baking time or reduce the temperature.
The cake is unevenly browned in the baking tin

Grilling
Caution!
Material damage due to effect of heat: The temperature generated in the cooking compartment is very high. Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill. Never grill with the appliance door open.
For grilling, always use the wire rack and universal pan. Insert the wire rack at the shelf position indicated in the grilling table. To prevent the oven from becoming dirty, insert the universal pan one level lower. Always place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire rack
Note: Always use the universal pan in the standard position (not the other way up).
If you are grilling more than one piece of meat, make sure that they are the same sort of meat and that they are of similar thickness and weight.
All-round grilling
4 All-round grilling is particularly suitable for grilling poultry and meat so that it is crispy all round (e.g. roast pork with crackling).
Turn the items after half to two-thirds of the grilling time.
Pierce duck and goose skin under the wings and legs to allow the fat to escape.
Depending on the food you are cooking, the cooking compartment may become more than usually dirty when you cook food on the wire rack using all-round grilling. You should therefore clean the cooking compartment after every use so that the dirt does not burn on.
The information in the table is a guideline, and applies to the enamelled universal pan with wire rack. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of food to be grilled.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first time. This will generally allow more even browning.
At the end of the cooking time, switch the grill off and leave the food to stand for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking compartment with the door closed. The recommended rest time is not included in the grilling times specified.
The values are for food placed in a cold oven and for meat taken directly from the refrigerator.
Radiant grilling
For grilling large quantities of flat items, use the + full-surface grill.
For grilling small quantities of flat items, use the ( centre-area grill. Place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire rack. You will save energy by using the centre-area grill.
Brush the items to be grilled with a little oil according to taste.
Turn the grilling items half to two-thirds of the way through the grilling time.
The details given in the table are guidelines. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of items to be grilled. They apply to meat placed into a cold oven straight from the refrigerator.

Defrost
In this section, you can find out how to defrost with 3 Hot air or A Defrost.
Defrosting with hot air
Use the 3 Hot air operating mode to defrost and cook frozen products.
Please note the following points here:
Frozen products that have been defrosted (meat in particular)
require shorter cooking times than fresh products
The cooking time for frozen meat increases by the defrosting
time
Always defrost frozen poultry before cooking so that you can
remove the giblets
Cook frozen fish at the same temperatures as fresh fish
You can place large quantities of ready made frozen
vegetables in aluminium dishes in the cooking compartment at the same time
Use shelf height 1 when defrosting on one level, and shelf
heights 1 + 3 when using two levels
Observe the instructions on the packaging when using frozen
foods.
Defrost
Using defrost setting A you can defrost delicate pastries particularly well (e.g. cream cakes).
1. Switch on the A Defrost operating mode.
2. Defrost the frozen food for 25-45 minutes, depending on type
and size.
3. Remove the frozen food from the cooking compartment and
let it thaw for 30 - 45 minutes.
With small quantities (pieces), the defrosting time is shortened to 1520 minutes and the extended defrosting time is shortened to 1015 minutes.
Yoghurt
You can also make home-made yoghurt with your appliance. The heat from the \ light is used for this.
1. Remove accessories and hook-in racks, telescopic shelves
or separate fitting systems.
2. Heat 1 litre of long-life milk (3.5 % fat) or fresh pasteurised
milk to 40 °C or Bring 1 litre fresh milk to the boil once and allow to cool down to 40 °C.
3. Add 150 g of set yoghurt to the warm milk, stir in and fill the
jars or bowls evenly. Do not pour more than 200 ml into any single container.
4. Cover the filled containers with a suitable lid or cling film.
5. Preheat the oven with the + Full-surface grill for 15 minutes
at 100 ºC.
6. Then move the operating mode selector to \ Light.
7. Evenly space the containers over the cooking compartment
floor, then close the appliance door.
