Causes of damage

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.

– 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.

– Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking

compartment when it is closed for prolonged
periods This will damage the enamel.

– 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.

– Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow

the cooking compartment to cool when it is
closed. Even if the appliance door is only open a
little, front panels of adjacent units could be
damaged over time.

– Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty,

the appliance door will no longer close properly
when the appliance is in use. The fronts of
adjacent units could be damaged.Always keep the
door seal clean.

– 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.

Environmental protection

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning
used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment ­WEEE). The guideline determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used
appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Tips for saving energy

▯ Open the appliance door as little as possible

while cooking, baking or roasting.

▯ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking

tins for baking. They absorb the heat particularly
well.

▯ It is best to bake several cakes one after the

other. The oven will still be hot. This reduces the
baking time for the second cake. You can also
place two loaf tins next to each other.

▯ In the hot air mode, you can bake on several levels

at the same time.

▯ If the cooking time is relatively long, you can

switch off the oven 10 minutes before the end of
the cooking time and use the oven's residual heat
to complete the cooking process.

Core temperature guidelines

Use chilled food only, not frozen food. The details
given in the table are guidelines. Results depend on
the quality and composition of the food.

For hygiene reasons, critical foodstuffs such as fish
and game should reach a core temperature of 62 – 70
°C; for poultry and minced meat this should be as
high as 80 – 85 °C.

As far as possible, place the roast in the centre of the
rotisserie spit.

Fasten the roast at both ends with the retaining clips.

You can also tie down the roast with kitchen thread. In
the case of poultry, tie the wing ends under the back
and the legs on the rump. Then, they will not get too
dark. Pierce the skin under the wings so the fat can
drain off.

Choose the oven temperature according to the data in
the table. If the temperature is too high, the meat or
poultry becomes too dark on the outside. It stays
largely raw on the inside.

Self-cleaning (pyrolytic system)

During self-cleaning, the oven heats up to 485° C.
Thus, remainders from roasting, grilling or baking are
burnt up and all you have to do is wipe the ash out of
the interior.

A duration from one to three hours is at your disposal
for this mode of operation. The more extreme and the
older soiling is, the longer the cleaning time should
be.

It suffices for you to clean the interior every two to
three months. If required, cleaning more often is also
possible.

m Risk of fire!

Loose food residues, grease and meat juices may
catch fire during pyrolytic cleaning. Remove coarse
dirt from the cooking compartment and from the
accessories before every pyrolytic cleaning cycle.

m Risk of fire!

The appliance will become very hot on the outside
during the pyrolytic cleaning cycle. Never hang
combustible objects, e.g. tea towels, on the door
handle. Do not place anything against the front of the
oven. Keep children at a safe distance.

Adjusting self-cleaning

1 Set the temperature selector to 485° C.

2 Set the mode selector to the Pyrolytic self

cleaning setting.
Timer programming is activated. Suggested time
2:00 h.

3 Depending on soiling, adjust the time by means of

the @ and A keys (adjustment range 1:00 - 3:00
h).

4 Press the ~ key. Self-cleaning begins.

The current time remaining for self-cleaning can be
queried at any time by pressing the M key and can be
modified with the @ and A keys. Complete input with
the ~ key.

Notes

‒ For your safety, the oven door is locked at

temperatures in excess of 300° C. The locking
and unlocking process takes about 30 seconds.
The F flashes during this time. Do not try to
open the oven door during this process.

‒ You can program a switch-off time if you would

like to run self-cleaning at night, for instance
(section entitled "Timer functions - switch-off
time"). The program then starts automatically.

m Risk of serious damage to health!

The appliance will become very hot during the
pyrolytic cleaning cycle. The non-stick coating on
baking trays and tins is destroyed and noxious gases
are released. Never let non-stick baking trays and tins
go through the pyrolytic cleaning cycle. Only
enamelled accessories may be cleaned at the same
time.

Preparing self-cleaning

Caution!

Fire risk! Loose food remainders, fat and roast juice
can ignite. Wipe out the cooking interior with a moist
cloth.

▯ Remove coarse soiling and food remainders from

the oven.

▯ Clean the door seals manually, the inside of the

door and the glass pane because the pyrolysis
cleaning process does not clean these parts.

▯ Remove all loose interior parts from the cooking

interior. Refer to the section entitled "Cleaning
and care" for details of how to remove the
gridirons. There must be no objects left in the
interior.

▯ Close the oven door.

Self-cleaning ended

The Ò symbol flashes after the pyrolysis cleaning
operation has ended. The timer switches off heating
automatically.

The flashing stops as soon as any button is pressed or
if the temperature selector is set to 0.

Note: When the press the ~ button, the suggested
value 2:00 h appears again. Press the ~ button again
to start the self-cleaning process again.

Once the cooking interior has cooled down, wipe the
remaining ash out of the interior with a moist cloth.
