1.3 About use
The appliance is intended solely for use in the
household and must not be put to any other uses.
Use the appliance to prepare meals only. It must
not be used to heat up the room in which it is
installed.
Caution! You will risk injuring yourself, should you
close the door improperly. You might jam and crush
your fingers and hands.
Do not store any combustible objects in your oven
and, when operating the oven, never leave any
items inside the oven compartment other than the
ones needed.
Make sure that the bottom of the oven
compartment is never covered up during operation
or lined with aluminium foil.
Never pour water directly into the hot oven. This
could damage the enamel.
Always preheat your oven in the mode in which
you intend to bake or roast.
Tip: you have a possibility of heating up the
appliance very quickly. To do this, use the hot air
and bottom heat program.
The “Heating" symbol in the control panel
goes off as soon as the set temperature has been
reached.
Observe caution with oils and fats. They may
overheat and burn easily.
Note! Fruit acids such as the juice of lemons or
plums etc. should be removed after every baking
operation, thus making sure that they will not cause
spots on the oven’s enamel.
After baking/roasting, open the door completely or close it. Do not leave the oven door half
open as otherwise the control panel and
kitchen furniture may be damaged.
Caution: risk of burns. The inside of the door
gets very hot during operation; observe appropriate
caution when opening the appliance. Make sure
that the open door does not swing back when you
are standing in front of the appliance.
Built-in temperature protection prevents overheating of the appliance and of kitchen furniture.
Return the “Temperature" knob to “0" after baking.
If malfunctions should occur, first check the fuses
in your household. If there is no fault in the power
supply, consult your dealer or the nearest authorised Gaggenau service centre.
All heating elements and the fan are switched off
when you open the door.
After completion of baking or roasting, the
cooling fan will continue to run for a time and will
then switch off automatically.
The socket for the separate heating element for the
roaster and the baking stone (special accessory),
can be found in the middle of the back panel at the
bottom. During normal operation, please leave the
cover in the socket.

2.3 Operating principle of the
operating modes
Hot air circulation
In the hot air circulation mode, all prepared meals
are cooked at the same temperature. Diverse or
similar meals can be prepared on several levels
without any transfer of taste.
You can bake, roast and sterilise with hot air.
Baking with hot air circulation
This is the ideal operating mode for baking several
trays and tins at the same time. (Fig. 13)
Roasting with hot air circulation
Meat is evenly browned on all sides. When roasting
on the grid iron, push the grilling tray one level
lower to collect dripping fat.
Hot air circulation and bottom heat
When this function is used, the bottom heating
element is additionally in operation.
The fan wheel ensures a uniform distribution of
heat. Heat is also generated from below. (Fig. 14)
Top and bottom heat
Two heating elements (top and bottom heat) are
operated jointly. When baking with top and bottom
heat, you can only use one level. You get the best
baking and roasting results on the second level
from below. (Fig. 15)
This unit allows you to select the top heat element
separately. In this mode of operation you can
deliberately choose to bake or roast food from the
top.

Grilling
When grilling, food is cooked/roasted at a temperature of 150-300 °C from above. A distinction can be
made between the following kinds:
Temperature-controlled grilling
During temperature-controlled grilling, the heating
element emits a greater or lesser amount of infrared radiation depending on the setting of the temperature selector switch. (Fig. 16)
This method of grilling is suitable for flat pieces of
meat and for browning or gratins.
Do not forget to turn grilled food!
Grilling with the hot air fan
The additional fan circulates the hot air and so
ensures a more even heat, when grilling several
items at the same time. There is no need to turn the
food frequently. (Fig. 17)
ECO
Using the ECO mode is an energy saving way to
prepare cakes, small pastries and gratins with hot
air circulation. The light and catalytic converter
heating are switched off in this mode and the oven
will take longer to heat up. When you program the
timer, the heating element will be switched off
before the cooking time has elapsed, thus
exploiting the residual heat. (Fig. 18)

3.2 Operating the timer
The required mode and temperature can be set
before and after time programming by turning the
“Temperature" or “Mode" knob.
As long as one or several symbol(s) in the display
flash(es), no input is possible and no value is programmed or an invalid value has been programmed.
All time values are entered by means of the
(Timer), +, – and (Confirmation) keys.
Every input triggers an audible and a visible signal.
If you select a program (e.g. end), but you do not
enter a value, the current time will appear on the
display after 20 seconds.
An entered value (e.g. duration programming) must
be confirmed within 20 seconds (Confirmation
key). Entered values are not stored if they are not
confirmed.
Press the (Confirmation) key if you wish to
confirm a value during programming.
If you press any other key instead, the entered
value will not be stored and will disappear.
You can query set values by pressing the
(Timer) key. The value appears on the display for
around 10 seconds. During this time, you can
modify the value by pressing the + or – key and you
can confirm it by pressing the (Confirmation)
key.
Press the + and – keys at the same time if you wish
to clear a value.
If you have already programmed a time value once
(e.g. a duration) on the appliance, this previously
programmed value will be proposed to you when
programming a value again.
The longer you press the + or – key when
programming a time, the faster the time elapses on
the display.
After the programmed time has elapsed, the
corresponding symbol flashes on the display. For
example, if you have programmed an end time, the
(End time) symbol will flash. An audible signal is
also sounded. Heating is deactivated and the oven
lighting goes off. You can restart the previously
selected mode by pressing any key on the display.
You end the baking process by turning the
“Temperature" knob to 0.
Switching from the automatic mode to the “normal
mode":
Turn the temperature control knob back to 0.
The oven will then no longer heat. The previously
programmed time value is retained. An audible
signal sounds after the entered time has elapsed.
Note: if the time is not displayed accurately on the
timer, this is not due to a technical defect. The
mains frequency of the public power supply is the
time base for the timers. In Europe, this is a
standard frequency of 50 Hz (Hertz). As far as this
point is concerned, power supply networks that are
fed from power stations in eastern Europe fluctuate.
This is why an incorrect time may be displayed.
This discrepancy has no influence on the functions
and program sequences of the appliance.
Every alarm goes off after 3 minutes.
Note: all time programming functions can be
programmed simultaneously.

Note: After a new connection or a power failure,
the suggested time of 8:00 lights up on the display
and the symbol (Time unit) flashes. By pressing
the + and – keys, you can set the current time and
you can confirm it by pressing the (Confirmation)
key. This will ensure perfect functioning of the
appliance. The suggested time 8:00 will be stored
as the time of day if you turn one of the control
knobs.

... a cake baked in a tray is too light at the bottom? Push the cake in deeper and remove all objects from the oven that you do not need.
... a cake baked in a form is too light at the bottom? Do not insert the baking form in the oven on the tray, but on the grid iron.
... a cake/small cakes and pastries are too dark at the bottom? Insert the cake/pastries at a higher level.
... a cake is too dry? Set the oven temperature to a slightly higher value. Preheat the oven.
... a cake is too slippery or doughy on the inside or if meat Set the baking or roasting temperature to a slightly lower value. Important: baking or

Tips for baking:
– You can use any heat-resistant dishes.
Place dishes in the middle of the grid iron.
You can also use the grilling tray for large roasts.
After removing glass dishes, place them on a dry
kitchen cloth or cooling grill. Do not place them
on a cold or wet support surface. The glass could
crack.
– You are advised to use dark metal baking forms.
You may also use light baking forms in the hot air
mode. In this case, the baking time is longer.
– The values in the cooking tables apply to the
preheated oven. The temperature and duration
depend on the quantity and consistency of the
dough. This is why the tables list temperature
ranges. You are advised to begin with the lowest
temperature the first time. If required, set it
higher the next time. Remember: a lower
temperature ensures more even browning.
– To find out if your cake mixture has baked
properly, insert a wooden stick at the highest
point of the cake around 5-10 minutes before
expiry of the baking time specified in the recipe.
The cake is ready if dough no longer sticks to the
wood.
– In the ECO mode you might notice a slightly
stronger smell with certain foods (for example
yeast dough). In this case it is advisable to use the
normal hot air circulation mode.
Tips for roasting and grilling:
– Before serving, allow the roast to rest for
10 minutes with the oven switched off and closed.
This keeps the roast juicy.
– Always grill in the closed oven. If possible, grilled
pieces should be equally thick, at least 2 to 3 cm.
When this is the case, they will brown evenly and
will stay nice and juicy. Never grill steaks salted!
Place pieces for grilling directly on the grid iron.
– Poultry becomes particularly crispy brown if you
coat it with butter, salt water, dripped-off fat or
orange juice.
– Even sensitive frozen food is thawed gently and
fast. Place the frozen food on the grid iron and
turn the “Temperature" control knob to the “Light"
position. Use the grilling tray to collect the liquid
from thawing.
– When roasting put a little bit of water into the
grilling tray and place it one level below the grid
iron. This ensures that the juices of the meat are
collected and the oven stays clean.
– In the case of duck or goose, pierce the skin
under the wings to allow the fat to drain off.

6.1 Manual cleaning
Caution, risk of burns! Wait until the oven has
cooled down to be touched safely before
cleaning.
Do not use any scouring cleaning agents,
aggressive or nitro-polishing agents, scouring
pads or other tools.
Thoroughly clean the appliance before operating it
for the first time and after every use, thus avoiding
the residues baking in. After residues have baked
in several times, they are then difficult to remove.
Clean the oven with hot soapy water while it is still
warm and leave it open to dry. Do not scrape off
baked-in remainders of food. Instead, moisten them
with a wet cloth and detergent.
Fruit juices from moist cakes dripping onto the oven
interior can damage the enamel. Remove such
soiling as soon as the oven has cooled down
sufficiently.
Do not use commercially available oven sprays to
clean the oven.
Clean accessories (baking tray, grid iron and grill
pan) with hot water or detergent.
Clean the control panel, glass surface and
operator controls with a moist cloth and mild
soapy water and dry them with a soft dry cloth.
Do not use any commercially available stainless
steel cleaners or highly alkali cleaners (for example
oven cleaning spray) for the control panel as
these can damage the panel and the printed
symbols. Do not use any abrasive sponges either.
Do not use scouring agents or abrasive sponges to
clean the glass front. Use commercially available
window cleaning detergents and apply them on a
soft, moist cloth or a window leather. Do not spray
onto the control panel.
Cleaning the baking stone (special accessory)
Remove coarse soiling from the baking stone. Turn
the baking stone round before using it again. This
will ensure self-cleaning. Dough residues can then
be removed using a soft brush.
Note: Do not clean the baking stone with water and
detergents.

6.2 Pyrolysis (self-cleaning)
Before you start pyrolytic cleaning
–
Remove extreme soiling from the oven!
–
Remove all loose interior parts (e.g. gridiron or
core temperature sensor) from the oven
compartment.
Switching On:
–
Remove all loose interior parts (e.g. grid iron)
from the oven compartment.
There must be no objects left in the oven
compartment!
– Close the oven door.
Important!
Check that the oven door is firmly closed on the
oven.
– Turn the “Temperature" and “Mode" control
knobs to the symbol (pyrolysis) on the left.
The suggested time of 03:00 and the symbol
(pyrolysis) light up on the display. The (key)
and (duration) symbols flash.

Gaggenau baking trays and grill troughs are
coated with pyrolysis-proof enamel. To achieve an
optimum cleaning result, you are nevertheless
advised to remove all accessories from the oven
before the pyrolytic cleaning process. Only this
will ensure optimum heat distribution.
If you would like to remove burnt-in residues from
your baking tray or your grill trough, it is important
that you observe the following safety notes:
– Remove extreme fatty soiling, roast juice and
food remainders before the pyrolytic cleaning
process. This will involve a fire risk!
– Only ever insert one baking tray or one grill
trough in the lowest shelf in the oven.
– Insert the baking tray or your grill trough fully.
– Do not clean the grid iron or the baking stone
using the pyrolysis mode.

– Press the – or + key to change the duration of the
pyrolysis. You can choose between the following
times: 02:00, 02:30 and 3:00.
– Press the (Confirm) key to start pyrolysis. An
audible signal is sounded.
– For your safety, the oven door is locked
immediately. The locking and unlocking process
takes about 30 seconds. The (door lock)
symbol lights up during this time. The oven
lighting goes off. On the display, the (door
lock), (cooking time) and (pyrolysis)
symbols light up.
Do not try to open the oven door during the selfcleaning process.
Note: during the pyrolysis process, it is not
possible to query the temperature value nor the
time.
End of pyrolysis:
After the pyrolysis process has ended, an audible
signal sounds and the (cooking time) symbol
flashes. Press any key and turn the “Temperature"
control knob to the 0 position and the “Mode" knob
to a position other than Pyrolysis.
Please note that, for safety reasons, the door will not
be unlocked until until the oven has cooled down to
150 °C. The door lock symbol goes off.
Wait until the oven has cooled down; then, you can
remove any pyrolysis residues (e.g. ash) from the
oven compartment.
Ending the pyrolysis process before expiry of
the entered time:
– Turn the “Temperature" control knob to the 0
position and the “Mode" control knob to a position
other than Pyrolysis.
– Pay attention to the fact that the door is not
unlocked until at a temperature of 150 °C or less.
Tip: wait until the appliance indicates that the
pyrolysis process has ended. This ensures that you
will achieve an optimum cleaning result.
Starting pyrolysis at a later time:
– Enter the required switch-off time (see
Chapter 3).
– Turn the control knobs to the pyrolysis setting as
described above.
Note: you can query the current pyrolysis time by
pressing the (Timer) key. You can increase the
length of the pyrolytic cleaning process during
operation. Press the + key to increase the value
by 30 minutes in each case. Confirm the value by
pressing the (confirmation) key.
In this mode of operation (auto pyrolysis), even
stubborn soiling is burnt away at temperatures
around 485°C.
After the pyrolytic cleaning process, you can
remove the ash easily from the oven using a moist
cloth.
