recycling of used appliances as applicable.

Avoiding Damage to the Appliance
and the Cabinet

Steam Oven and Cabinet Fronts

Do not cover the ventilation openings of the steam
oven.

Do not take off the door seal. A damaged door seal
must be changed immediately.

After taking the food out of the oven, allow the oven
to cool down with the door closed. Do not leave the
oven door half open, the hot air can cause damage
to adjacent cabinets. The cooling fan will continue
to run for a while and will then switch off
automatically.

Avoiding Damage to the Oven
Interior

Observe the following tips to avoid corrosion in the
oven. No warranty claims can be lodged for any
damage resulting from non compliance with these
notes.

•

Clean the oven interior after it has cooled
down. After cleaning, use the drying function to
dry the oven interior.

•

Aggressive cleaners may cause corrosion. Only
use hot soapy water to clean the oven interior.
Use the cleaning function.

•

Do not use oven cleaner or caustic cleaners.
Do not use cleaners containing chloride.

•

For regular care of the stainless steel interior
we recommend the Gaggenau oven care
product. Please observe the notes in the
cleaning chapter.

•

Salt in the oven reacts aggressively. Salt
residues on the oven interior may cause spots
of corrosion. Always remove residues
immediately.

•

Spicy sauces (e.g. ketchup, mustard) and
salted food (e.g. salted roasts) contain chloride
and acids. These act aggressively on stainless
steel. Always clean the oven interior after use.

•

Only use original accessories in the oven
interior. Rusting materials (e.g. serving plates,
cutlery) may cause corrosion of the oven
interior.

•

Only use original small parts (e.g. knurled
nuts). Order small parts from our after-sales
service, should you loose any.

Door Panel

Using aluminium foil in the oven compartment:
aluminium foil in the oven compartment should not
touch the glass panel of the oven door. This could
cause permanent marks on the glass panel.

Important Notes

•

The cooking times given are only a
recommendation. The effective cooking time
depends on the quality of the food, its
temperature, the amount and the size of the
food.

•

Always preheat the oven. This will guarantee the
best results.

•

The cooking times given here are for a
preheated oven. Add about 5 minutes to the
cooking time if the oven has not been preheated.

•

The values given are for 4 average portions.
Add to the cooking time for larger amounts.

•

Use the recommended cooking inserts. Using
different cooking inserts might change the
cooking times.

•

Try new dishes at the shortest time value given.
If necessary, extend the cooking time.

•

Only open the oven door for a short time when
putting food in the oven.

•

If you use only one level, place the cooking
insert on the second level from the bottom.

•

You can use simultaneously up to three levels
(level 2, 3 and 4 from the bottom) for steaming,
defrosting, dough proofing and regenerating.
You can cook different dishes simultaneously
without flavour transfer. However, the cooking
times may increase for large amounts of food.

•

You can only bake on one single level. Use the
second level from below.

•

Food being cooked must not come into contact
with the oven compartment, grease filter or rear
plate.

•

The steam oven door must seal well. Always
keep the door seal clean.

•

Do not place too much food on the wire rack or
the cooking insert. This will ensure optimum
circulation of the air.

•

Always leave the grease filter in place during
use.

Fish

•

Steaming is a gentle cooking process and fish retains its taste.

•

For hygenic reasons, steam fish until it reaches a core temperature of at least 62-65 °C. This is also
the ideal core temperature for fish.

•

Salt the fish after steaming. Thus, the natural aroma is preserved and the fish does not dry out.

•

When using the perforated cooking insert grease it lightly to prevent the fish sticking to it.

•

Fillets with skin: place the fish with the skin to the top, this preserves the texture and aroma.

Fish – Low-temperature Steaming

•

Steaming fish between 70 and 90 °C prevents it from becoming soft und breaking apart. This is
especially suitable for sensitive fish.

Meat

The cooking times given are only a recommendation. The effective cooking time depends on the
temperature of the food and the roasting time on the hob. For precise control use the meat probe. Refer to
the chapter “Meat Probe” for tips on using the meat probe and the temperature table for the different
meats.

Meat – roasting at higher temperatures

•

Time to settle down: wrap the meat in aluminium foil and leave to rest for 10-15 minutes after roasting.
The meat can “settle down”. More juices will stay in the meat when cutting it open.

•

To roast the meat rare or medium: open the oven door when the core temperature is 5 °C below the
required value and wait until the value has been reached. This prevents overcooking and gives the meat
time to settle down.

•

When using the perforated cooking insert or the wire rack, place the unperforated cooking insert on
the level below. Fill with a small amount of water to avoid residues burning in. You can add vegetables,
wine, spices or herbs to get a delicious base for sauce.

Meat – Low-temperature Cooking

•

Seared meat matures over a longer time at a low temperature in the oven. The food will remain juicy and
preserve most of its nutrients.

•

Please note that the core temperature of the food will always stay below the set temperature in the
oven. As a recommendation, set the oven temperature 10-15°C higher than the required core
temperature.

•

Take the meat from the fridge one hour before cooking.

•

For hygenic reasons, briefly sear the meat from all sides in a hot pan on the hob before putting it in the
oven. This will give the roast the typical flavour.

•

Serve on warmed dishes.

•

You can reduce the temperature to 60 °C towards the end of the cooking time (for example if your
guests arrive late).

•

30% moisture means “Cooking in own moisture”. With this setting no additional steam is added, but
the air flap remains closed. Thus, the natural moisture of the food remains in the oven and prevents the
meat from drying out.

Poultry

•

The cooking times given are only a recommendation and depend on the temperature of the food before
roasting. For precise control use the meat probe. Do not insert the tip of the meat probe in the middle
(hollow) but between the belly and the thigh. Refer to the chapter “Meat Probe” for further tips and the
temperature table.

•

Season poultry with spices and only little or no oil to get a crispy skin.

Preparing Yogurt

•

Heat pasteurised milk on the hob to 90 °C to avoid damaging the yogurt bacteria. You do not need to
heat up long-life milk. (Note: the time needed for maturing will be lengthened if you use cold milk to
produce the yogurt).

•

Important! Cool the milk in a bain-marie until it reaches 40 °C to avoid destroying the yogurt bacteria.

•

Stir natural yogurt (use yogurt with yogurt bacteria) into the milk (1-2 teaspoons for every 100 ml).

•

In the case of yogurt ferment, pay attention to the notes on the packet.

•

Pour the yogurt into clean jars.

•

Disinfect the clean yogurt jars in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 100°C / 100% moisture before filling
them with yogurt. Note: let the jars and the oven cool down before filling the jars with yogurt to put
them in the oven.

•

On completion, place the yogurt in the fridge.

•

Add skimmed milk powder to the milk before heating it (1-2 tablespoons per litre) to get a more solid
yogurt.

Care and Manual Cleaning

Safety Notes

$ Warning! Do not clean the hob using high

pressure cleaners or steam jets.

$ Warning, risk of burns! Before cleaning, wait

until the appliance has cooled down.

Oven Interior

Important! Do not spray cleaning agents into the air

flap on the top of the oven interior!

Clean the oven interior with a cloth/sponge and a
small amount of hot soapy water. Avoid residues
burning in. After cleaning, leave the door open until
the oven has dried or use the drying function.

For regular care of the stainless steel oven interior
we recommend the Gaggenau oven care product
which is available through our after sales service or
your specialist dealer (order number 667 027).
Please observe the included instructions for use of
the product.

Do not scrape off baked-in remainders of food.
Instead, moisten them with a wet cloth and
detergent.

If the oven is heavily soiled use the cleaning
function for best results.

Do not use non-suitable cleaning agents:
– scouring cleaning agents
– nitro polishing agents
– cleaners containing chloride
– abrasive sponges or objects

Heavily Soiled Oven Interior

For heavy soiling we recommend you should only
use the oven cleaning gel (order number 463 582)
which is available through our after sales service.
Other cleaners can damage the oven.

When applying the cleaning gel avoid the gel
coming into contact with the light and all seals
(door, light). Do not leave the cleaning gel on for
more than 12 hours and do not heat up the oven
during this time.

Carefully rinse the oven interior with clear water.
Remove all traces of the cleaning gel before using
the oven. Remaining traces of cleaner can damage
the oven.

Please observe the included instructions for use of
the product.

If you have installed the Brita descaling system
WF 040-020 between the water supply and the
appliance, change the filter cartridge regularly.

Set the option “filter available” in the basic settings.
The appliance calculates the capacity of the filter
cartridge depending on the entered water hardness
and the use. Shortly before you have to change the
filter cartridge, a symbol appears on the display
every time you switch on the oven. This symbol
shows the remaining capacity of the filter cartridge.

If the filter capacity has expired, the symbol is
shown constantly on the display if the appliance is
on. Change the filter cartridge.

Reset the filter capacity symbol in the basic
settings after changing the filter cartridge.

Note:

Depending on the preset water hardness and the
operating modes used, the symbol to change the
filter cartridge may not appear on the display for a
long period of time.

The manufacturer of the descaling filter recommends
to change the filter cartridge at least once a year for
hygenic reasons irrespective of the water hardness.
