]Causes of damage
Cau s es 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.

Environmental protection en
Steam
Caution!
■ Baking tins: Ovenware must be heat and steam
resistant. Silicone baking tins are not suitable for
combined operation with steam.
■ Ovenware with areas of rust: Do not use any
ovenware which displays areas of rust. Even the
smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the
cooking compartment.
■ Dripping liquids: When steaming with a perforated
cooking container, always insert the baking tray, the
universal pan or the solid cooking container
underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
■ Hot water in the water tank: Hot water can damage
the pump. Only fill the water tank with cold water.
■ Enamel damage: Do not start any operations when
there is water on the cooking compartment floor.
Before operation, wipe away the water from the
cooking compartment floor.
■ Descaling solution: Do not allow any descaling
solution to come into contact with the control panel
or other surfaces on the appliance. This damages
the surfaces. If this does happen, remove the
descaling solution immediately with water.
■ Cleaning the water tank: Do not clean the water tank
in the dishwasher. Otherwise, the water tank will be
damaged. Clean the water tank with a soft cloth and
standard washing-up liquid.
7Environmental protection
Env i r on ment al prot 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.
■ 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.
7
en Environmental protection
■ 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.
■ 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

@Meat thermometer
Meat t her momet er
The MultiPoint meat thermometer makes precise
cooking possible. It measures the temperature inside
the food. Once the set temperature has been reached,
the appliance automatically switches itself off.
on the inside of the food between 30 °C and 99 °C.
■ Use only the meat thermometer supplied. You can
purchase it as a spare part from the after-sales
service.
■ After use, always remove the meat thermometer
from the cooking compartment. Never store it inside
the cooking compartment.
Inserting the meat probe into the food
Before placing your food into the cooking compartment,
insert the meat probe into the food.
The meat probe has three measuring points. Ensure
that the middle measuring point is inserted in the food.
Meat: For large pieces of meat, insert the meat probe at
an angle from above as far as it will go into the meat.
For relatively thin pieces of meat, insert the meat probe
from the side at the thickest point.
Poultry: Insert the meat probe as far as it will go into
the thickest point in the breast. Insert the meat probe
into the poultry crossways or lengthways depending on
its structure. Then turn the poultry and place it on the
wire rack breast-side down.
Fish: Insert the meat probe behind the head as far as it
will go towards the spine. Place the whole fish onto the
wire rack and prop it up in the swimming position using
half a potato.
Turning the food: If you wish to turn the food, do not
remove the meat probe. Once you have turned the
food, check that the meat probe is correctly positioned
in the food.
If you remove the meat probe while the food is cooking,
all settings will be reset and you will have to apply them
again.
Caution!
Ensure that the meat probe's cable does not become
trapped.
To prevent the meat probe from being damaged by
excessive heat, there must be a gap of a few
centimetres between the grill element and the meat
probe. The meat may expand during the cooking
process.
Core temperatures of different foods
Do not use frozen food. The figures in the table are
given as a guide. They depend on the quality and
composition of the food.

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.
Surfaces in the cooking compartment
The back wall in the cooking compartment is selfcleaning.You can tell this from the rough surface.
The base, ceiling and side panel are enamelled and
have smooth surfaces.
Cleaning enamel surfaces
Clean the smooth enamel surfaces with a dish cloth
and hot soapy water or a vinegar solution. Then dry
them with a soft cloth.
Soften baked-on food remnants with a damp cloth and
soapy water. Use stainless steel wire wool or oven
cleaner to remove stubborn dirt.
1. Set the type of heating for baking bread.
2. Set the maximum temperature.
3. Start the mode and leave it to run for at least one
hour.
The ceramic coating is regenerated.
When the cooking compartment has cooled down,
remove the brown or white residue with water and a soft
sponge.
Note: During operation, reddish spots form on the
surfaces. This is not rust, but residues from food. These
spots are not harmful and do not restrict the cleaning
ability of the self-cleaning surfaces.
Caution!
Do not use oven cleaner on the self-cleaning surfaces.
This will damage the surfaces.If oven cleaner does get
onto these surfaces, dab it off immediately using water
and a sponge cloth. Do not rub the surface and do not
use abrasive cleaning aids.
After cleaning
After cleaning the door seal, check whether it is sitting
correctly on the left- and right-hand side (fig. !).
If the door seal is running over the spacer ‚, push the
door seal inwards so that it now runs beside the
spacer ‚ (fig. ").
Caution!
Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment
when it is still warm. This may damage the enamel.
Remove all food remnants from the cooking
compartment and the appliance door before you next
heat up the appliance.
Leave the cooking compartment open to dry after
cleaning it.
Tip: It is best to use the cleaning aid. ~ "Cleaning
function" on page 33
Note: Food residues can cause white deposits to form.
These are harmless and do not affect how the
appliance works. You can remove these residues using
lemon juice if required.
Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces
The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a porous,
matte ceramic layer. This coating absorbs and dispels
splashes from baking and roasting while the appliance
is in operation.
If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean themselves
sufficiently and dark stains appear, they can be cleaned
using targeted heating.
Making settings
Remove the rails, pull-out shelves, accessories and
ovenware from the cooking compartment beforehand.
Thoroughly clean the smooth enamel surfaces in the
cooking compartment, the inside of the appliance door
and the glass cover on the interior lighting.

compartment for a long time (e.g. overnight). The
appliance must not be operated when the cooking
compartment is still wet or damp.
Subsequent cleaning
1. Open the appliance door and remove the remaining
water with an absorbent sponge cloth.
2. Clean the smooth surfaces in the cooking
compartment with a dish cloth or a soft brush.
Stubborn residues can be removed using a stainless
steel scouring pad.
3. Remove limescale with a cloth soaked in vinegar.
Then wipe with clean water and rub dry with a soft
cloth (including under the door seal).
4. Use the # touch button to switch off the appliance.
5. Leave the appliance door ajar in the stop position
(approx. 30°) for approx. one hour to allow the
enamel surfaces in the cooking compartment to dry
thoroughly. Alternatively, you can also run the rapid
drying function for the cooking compartment.
Running the rapid drying function for the cooking
compartment
1. After the cleaning aid has been run through, leave
the appliance door ajar in the stop position (approx.
30°).
2. Touch the # touch button.
3. Start CircoTherm hot air at 50 °C.
4. After five minutes, switch off the appliance and close
the appliance door.
Removing heavy deposits of dirt
You have several options for removing particularly
stubborn deposits of dirt.
■ Leave the soapy water to work for some time before
starting the cleaning aid.
■ Rub soapy water onto the dirt on the smooth
surfaces before starting the cleaning aid.
■ Repeat the cleaning aid after the cooking
compartment has cooled down.
Descaling
To ensure that your appliance continues to operate
correctly, it must be descaled regularly.
Descaling comprises a number of different steps. For
hygiene reasons, the descaling programme must be
run through completely before the appliance is ready
for operation again. In total, the descaling programme
runs for approx. 70–95 minutes.
■ Descale (approx. 55–70 minutes), then empty and
refill the water tank
■ First rinsing cycle (approx. 9–12 minutes), then
empty and refill the water tank
■ Second rinsing cycle (approx. 9–12 minutes), then
empty and dry the water tank
If descaling is interrupted (e.g. due to a power failure or
because the appliance is switched off), you will be
prompted to rinse the appliance twice when you switch
it back on. The appliance cannot be used until the
second rinsing cycle has finished.
The frequency with which the appliance must be
descaled depends on the hardness of the water used.
When only another five or fewer steam-assisted
operations are possible, the appliance reminds you to
descale it with a message on the display. The number
of remaining operations is displayed after the appliance
is switched on. You can therefore prepare for the
descaling in good time.

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.
When steaming or during operation with steam
assistance, it is desirable that there is a significant
build-up of steam in the cooking compartment. Wipe the
cooking compartment clean after cooking, once it has
cooled off.
Please note that there will be a fee for a visit by a

Rely on the professionalism of the manufacturer. You
can therefore be sure that the repair is carried out by
trained service technicians who carry original spare
parts for your appliances.
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.
Silicone moulds are unsuitable for steam-assisted
cooking and steaming.
Cakes and small baked items
Your appliance offers you a range of heating types for
the preparation of cakes and small baked items. You
can find the ideal settings for many dishes in the
settings tables.
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.
Steam- assisted baking
Certain types of baked item (e.g. yeast-risen pastries)
get a more crispy crust and a more glossy surface if
baked with the steam assist mode. The baked item
does not dry out as much.
Steam-assisted baking is only possible on one level.
Some food turns out better if it is baked in several
stages. These dishes are indicated in the table.
42
Tested for you in our cooking studio en
Shelf positions
Use the indicated shelf positions.
Baking on one level
When baking on one level, use the following shelf
positions:
■ Tall baked items: Level 2
■ Flat baked items: Level 3
If you are using CircoTherm Hot air as the type of
heating, you can choose between levels 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Baking on several levels
Use CircoTherm. 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.
Baking on two levels:
■ 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
Baking on three levels:
■ Baking tray: Level 4
Universal pan: Level 3
Baking tray: Level 1
Baking on four levels:
■ 4 wire racks with greaseproof paper
First wire rack: Level 4
Second wire rack: Level 3
Third wire rack: Level 2
Fourth 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.
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.
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack
Insert the wire rack with the open side 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. If you wish to bake using these
baking tins/dishes and using top/bottom heating, slide
in the tin/dish at level 1.
The baking tins must be resistant to heat and steam for
use in steam-assisted baking.

Tips on baking
You want to find out whether the cake
is completely cooked in the middle.
The cake collapses.Next time, use less liquid. Alternatively, set the temperature to be 10 °C lower and extend the baking time.
The cake has risen in the middle but
is lower around the edge.
The fruit juice overflows.Next time, use the universal pan.
Small baked items stick to one
another during baking.
The cake is too dry.Set the temperature 10 °C higher and shorten the baking time.
The cake is generally too light in colour.
The cake is too light on top, and too
dark underneath.
The cake is too dark on top, and too
light underneath.
Cakes baked in a tray or tin are too
brown at the back.
The whole cake is too dark.Select a lower temperature next time and extend the baking time if necessary.
The cake is unevenly browned.Select a slightly lower temperature.
You were baking on several levels.
The items on the top baking tray are
darker than those on the lower baking
tray.
The cake looks good, but is not
cooked properly in the middle.
The cake cannot be turned out of the
dish when it is turned upside down.
Push a cocktail stick into the highest point on the cake. If the cocktail stick comes out clean with no dough residue, the cake is ready.
Adhere to the specified ingredients and preparation instructions in the recipe.
Only grease the base of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for the baked items to
expand well and brown on all sides.
If the shelf position and the cookware are correct, then you should increase the temperature if necessary or
extend the baking time.
Bake the cake one level higher in the oven the next time.
Bake the cake one level lower in the oven the next time. Select a lower temperature and extend the baking
time.
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 use CircoTherm 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.

Uneven browning may remain even after baking.
Recommended setting values
The table lists the optimal heating type for various kinds
of bread and bread roll. 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. The bread or bread rolls would only be
cooked on the outside, but 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. Some food turns out best if it is
baked in several stages. These foods are indicated in
the table.
The setting values for bread dough apply to both dough
placed on a baking tray and dough placed in a loaf tin.
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.
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.
Caution!
Never pour water into the hot cooking compartment or

Your appliance offers you a range of heating types for
preparing poultry. You can find the ideal settings for
certain dishes in the settings tables.
Roasting on the wire rack
Roasting on the wire rack is particularly well suited for
larger poultry or for multiple pieces at the same time.
Slide the universal pan into the oven at the indicated
shelf position with the wire rack attached. Ensure that
the wire rack is correctly positioned on the universal
pan. ~ "Accessories" on page 12
Depending on the size and type of the poultry, pour up
to ^ litres of water into the universal pan. Any dripping
fat will be caught. You can make a sauce from these
juices. This will also result in less smoke and ensure
that the cooking compartment stays cleaner.
Roasting in cookware
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.
Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or
aluminium reflect heat like a mirror and are therefore
not particularly suitable. The poultry cooks slower and
does not brown so well. Use a higher temperature and/
or a longer cooking time.
51
en Tested for you in our cooking studio
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for your
roasting cookware.
Uncovered cookware
It is best to use a deep roasting tin/dish for roasting
poultry. Place 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.
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.
Poultry 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.
Steam- assisted roasting
Certain foodstuffs will become crispier during steamassisted cooking. Their surface becomes glossier and
they dry out less.
Use uncovered cookware. Cookware must be heat- and
steam-resistant.
Use steam-assisted cooking if it is indicated in the
settings table. Some dishes turn out best if they are
cooked in several stages. These are indicated in the
table.
Steaming
Poultry products are cooked more gently using the
steaming function than with steam assistance. They
remain particularly succulent. As an alternative, you can
also fry poultry products quickly before steaming; the
cooking time will be reduced.
Larger pieces require a longer heating-up time and a
longer cooking time. If you are using several pieces
which are the same weight, the heating-up time is
increased, and not the cooking time.
Poultry items do not have to be turned.
Use the perforated steam container (size XL) and slide
the universal pan in underneath. You can also use a
glass tray and place this onto the wire rack.
Grilling
Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
Place the food to be grilled on the wire rack. 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.
Notes
■ The grill element switches itself continuously on and
off; this is normal. The set temperature determines
how frequently this occurs.
■ Smoke may be produced when grilling.
Meat thermometer
You can cook accurately using a meat thermometer.
Read important notes on using the meat thermometer in
the corresponding chapter. There, you can find notes
on inserting the meat thermometer, the possible heating
types and additional information. ~ "Meat
thermometer" on page 27
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for the
kind of poultry you are cooking. The temperature and
cooking time depend on the amount, composition and
temperature of the food. Setting 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 is 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 with
default values for the weight. If you wish to cook heavier
poultry, use the lower temperature in every case. If
cooking multiple pieces, use the weight of the heaviest
piece as a reference for determining the cooking time.
The individual pieces should be approximately equal in
size.
A general rule: the larger the poultry is, the lower the
cooking temperature and the longer the cooking time.
Turn the poultry after approx. ^ to Z of the indicated
time.
Note: Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for
the selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof
paper to size.
Tips
■ 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.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will achieve the best possible
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per
cent.

Roasting and braising
Baste lean meat with fat as required or cover it with
strips of bacon.

Roasting on the wire rack
On the wire rack, meat will become very crispy on all
sides.
Pour up to ^ litres of water into the universal pan,
depending on the size and type of the meat. Dripping
fat and meat juices will be caught. You can make a
sauce using these juices. This will also result in less
smoke and ensure that the cooking compartment stays
cleaner.
Slide the universal pan into the oven at the indicated
shelf position with the wire rack attached. Ensure that
the wire rack is correctly positioned on the universal
pan. ~ "Accessories" on page 12
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.
Uncovered cookware
Use a deep roasting tin/dish for roasting meat. Place
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.
Steam- assisted roasting and braising
Certain dishes become crispier if cooked using steam,
and do not dry out as much.
Use uncovered cookware. Cookware must be heat- and
steam-resistant.
The joints do not have to be turned.
Use steam-assisted cooking if it is indicated in the
settings table. Some dishes turn out best if they are
cooked in several stages. These are indicated in the
table.
Steaming
By contrast to the steam assistance function, the
steaming function cooks the meat particularly gently,
but it does not become crispy on the outside. It remains
very succulent. As an alternative, you can also fry
pieces of meat quickly before steaming; the cooking
time will be reduced.
Larger pieces require a longer heating-up time and a
longer cooking time. If you are using several pieces
which are the same weight, the heating-up time is
increased, and not the cooking time.
Pieces of meat do not need to be turned.
Use the perforated steam container (size XL) and slide
the universal pan in underneath. You can also use a
glass tray and place this onto the wire rack.
Grilling
Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
Place the food to be grilled on the wire rack. 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 set temperature determines
how frequently this occurs.
■ Smoke may be produced when grilling.

Recommended setting values
You can find the ideal heating type for many meat
dishes in the table. Temperature and cooking time
depend on the amount, composition and temperature of
the food. 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 apply to chilled meat placed into the
cold cooking compartment. By doing so, you can make
energy savings of up to 20 per cent. If you preheat the
oven, you can reduce the indicated cooking times by
several minutes.
You can find information on roasts and default values
for weights in the table. If you wish to roast a heavy joint
of meat, you should definitely use a lower temperature.
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.
As a general rule: the larger a roasting joint is, the lower
the cooking temperature and the longer the cooking
time.
Turn roasting joints and grilled items after approx. ^ to
Z of the indicated time.
If you wish to follow one of your own recipes, you
should use similar dishes as a reference. You can find
additional information in the tips on roasting, braising
and grilling attached to the settings table.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will achieve the best possible
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per
cent.

Tips on roasting and braising
The cooking compartment becomes
very dirty.
The roast is too dark and the crackling is burned in places, and/or the
roast is too dry.
The crackling is too thin.Increase the temperature or switch on the grill briefly at the end of the roasting time.
The roast looks good but the juices
are burnt.
56
Prepare your food in an enclosed roasting dish with higher temperature or use the grill tray. You will achieve
the best roasting results if you use the grill tray. The grill tray can be bought later as a special accessory.
Check the shelf position and temperature. Select a lower temperature the next time and reduce the roasting
time if necessary.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid if necessary.
Tested for you in our cooking studio en

are too clear and watery.
The meat gets burned during braising.
The roasting dish and lid must fit together well and close properly.
Reduce the temperature and add more liquid when braising if necessary.
Fish
Your appliance offers you a range of heating types for
preparing fish. You can find the ideal settings for many
dishes in the settings tables.
The whole fish 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 and grilling on the wire rack
Place the food to be grilled on the wire rack. In addition,
slide the universal pan in at least one shelf position
lower, with the slanted edge facing the appliance door.
Pour up to ^ litres of water into the universal pan,
depending on the size and type of the fish. Any dripping
liquid will be caught. Less smoke is generated and the
cooking compartment stays cleaner.
Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
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 fish with a fork, the juices will run out and
it will become dry.
Notes
■ The grill element switches itself continuously on and
off; this is normal. The set temperature determines
how frequently this occurs.
■ Smoke may be produced when grilling.
Roasting and stewing in cookware
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.
Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or
aluminium reflect heat like a mirror and are therefore
not particularly suitable. The fish cooks more slowly and
browns less. Use a higher temperature and/or a longer
cooking time.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for your
roasting cookware.
Uncovered cookware
To cook a whole fish, it is best to use a deep roasting
tin/dish. Place 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.
When stewing, add two to three tablespoons of liquid
and a little lemon juice or vinegar into the cookware.
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.
Fish can also become crispy in a covered roasting dish.
Here, use a roasting dish with a glass lid and set a
higher temperature.
Steam- assisted roasting
Certain dishes become crispier if cooked using steam,
and do not dry out as much.
Use uncovered cookware. Cookware must be heat- and
steam-resistant.
The fish does not have to be turned.
Use steam-assisted cooking if it is indicated in the
settings table. Some dishes turn out best if they are
cooked in several stages. These are indicated in the
table.
Steaming
The fish is cooked more gently using the steaming
function, and remains particularly succulent.
Larger pieces require a longer heating-up time and a
longer cooking time. If you are using several pieces
which are the same weight, the heating-up time is
increased, and not the cooking time.
Fish does not need to be turned.
Use the perforated steam container, size XL, and slide
the universal pan in underneath. You can also use a
glass tray and place this onto the wire rack.
Food which would normally be prepared in a water bath
should always be covered with foil.

indicated cooking times by several minutes.
In the table, you can find information for fish with default
values for the weight. If you want to cook a heavier fish,
you should definitely use the lower temperature. If
cooking several fish, you should use the weight of the
heaviest fish as a reference for determining the cooking
time. The individual fish should be approximately the
same size.
As a general rule: the larger a fish, the lower the
cooking temperature and the longer the cooking time.
Turn any fish which is not in swimming position after
approx. ^ to Z of the indicated time.

universal pan in underneath as well. Dripping liquid is
caught.
Steaming on one level
Use the shelf positions indicated in the settings tables.
Steaming on two levels

perforated and/or unperforated: Level 4
■ Perforated steam container (size XL): Level 3
Cookware
If you use cookware, place it onto the wire rack or the
perforated steam container, size XL.
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Cooking
times are increased when using cookware with thick
edges.
Food which would normally be prepared in a water bath
should always be covered with foil.
Cooking time and quantity
Cooking times when steaming are dependent on the
size of the pieces, but not dependent on the total
quantity. If a larger total quantity is used, the heating-up
time is increased and not the cooking time.
Larger pieces require a longer heating-up time and a
longer cooking time. If you are using several pieces
which are the same weight, the heating-up time is
increased, and not the cooking time.
Observe the unit sizes indicated in the settings table.
The cooking time is reduced for smaller pieces and
increased for larger ones. Cooking time is also
influenced by the quality and ripeness of the food. This
means that the setting values indicated are purely
guidelines.
Always distribute the food evenly in the cookware. It will
not cook evenly if the layers are of different depths.
When layering delicate foods in the cooking container,
do not pile them too high. It is better to use two
containers.
Rice and cereals
Add water or liquid in the proportion indicated. E.g.
"1:1.5" means adding 150 ml liquid per 100 g rice.
Baking and grilling
Only use original accessories.
Cooking on one level

Recommended setting values
The table lists the optimal heating type for various types
of food. The temperature and cooking time depend on
the amount and composition of the food. 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.
The setting values apply to food that is placed into a
cold cooking compartment. If you preheat the oven, you
can reduce the indicated cooking 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

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.
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 approx. 15 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.
Type of heating used:

conventionally roasted meat.
Drying
Dry herbs on the stem. Position the herbs evenly and
slightly heaped on the wire rack.
You can achieve outstanding drying results with
CircoTherm. With this type of preserving, flavourings are
concentrated by the dehydration.
Only use unblemished fruit, vegetables and herbs and
wash them thoroughly. Line the wire rack with
greaseproof paper or parchment paper. Drain the
excess water from the fruit and dry it.
Use the following shelf positions for drying:
■ 1 wire rack: Level 3
■ 2 wire racks: Level 3+1
Turn very juicy fruit and vegetables several times. After
drying, remove the dried products from the paper
immediately.
If necessary, cut it into equal chunks or thin slices.
Place unpeeled fruit onto the dish with the sliced
surfaces facing upwards. Ensure that neither fruit nor
mushrooms overlap on the wire rack.
Grate vegetables and then blanch them. Allow the
blanched vegetables to drain off and distribute them
evenly on the wire rack.

Ending the preserving process
After the specified cooking time, open the appliance
door. Do not remove the preserving jars from the
cooking compartment until they have completely cooled
down.
Wipe the cooking compartment clean afterwards.
Jars
Use only clean and undamaged preserving jars. Only
use heat-resistant, clean and undamaged rubber rings.
Check clips and clamps in advance.
Tip: You can use the disinfecting function to clean the
jars.
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
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.
Fruit: Fill the preserving jars with the fruit along with a
hot, skimmed sugar solution (approx. 400 ml for a 1litre jar). For one litre of water:
■ Approx. 250 g sugar for sweet fruit
■ Approx. 500 g sugar for sour fruit
Juicing
Before juicing, place the berries in a bowl and sprinkle
with sugar. Leave to stand for at least one hour to draw
out the juice.
Then fill the perforated steam container (size XL) with
the berries and insert into the oven at level 2. Slide the
universal pan in underneath to collect any juice. Use the
settings indicated in the table.
After cooking, wrap the berries in a cloth and squeeze
out the remaining juice.
Wipe the cooking compartment clean afterwards.

Sous-vide
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking under a
vacuum at low temperatures between 50-95 C and in
100% steam.
Sous-vide cooking is a gentle method of preparing
meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A chamber
vacuum-packing machine is used to heat-seal the food
in a special air-tight, heat-resistant vacuum-sealing bag.
The protective envelope of the vacuum-sealing bag
retains the nutrients and flavours. The low temperatures
and the direct transfer of heat allow precisely controlled
cooking in order to achieve the desired cooking results.
It is almost impossible to overcook the food.
Portions
Take into consideration the specified quantities and
sizes for the food listed in the settings table. For
relatively large quantities and items, the cooking time
must be adjusted accordingly.The appliance can cook
up to 2 kg of food sous-vide.
The quantities given for fish, meat and poultry
correspond to one to two portions. A portion size
sufficient for four people has been selected for
vegetables and desserts.
Rack levels
You can cook on up to two levels. For this purpose,
always slide in the universal pan at level 1 to catch any
drops of condensate. Insert the wire racks at the levels
above accordingly.
Hygiene
:Warning – Health risk!
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low
temperatures. As a result, it is important that you always
follow the application and hygiene instructions below:
■ Only use high-quality, perfectly fresh food.
■ Wash and disinfect your hands. Use disposable
gloves or cooking/grill tongs.
■ Take extra care when preparing hygienically critical
food, such as poultry, eggs and fish.
■ Always thoroughly rinse and/or peel fruit and
vegetables.
■ Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards
clean. Use different chopping boards for different
types of food.
68
Tested for you in our cooking studio en
■ Maintain the cold chain.Make sure that you only
interrupt it briefly to prepare the food, and then
return the food in its vacuum-sealed bag to the
refrigerator for storage before you cook it. Store the
prepared food for a maximum of 24 hours.
■ Food is suitable for immediate consumption only.
Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately.
Do not store it after cooking – not even in the
refrigerator.It is not suitable for reheating.
Tip: Since germs can be found on the surface of almost
all food, the best way to kill these germs is to put the
vacuum-sealed, uncooked food in boiling water for a
maximum of 3 seconds. This is the best way to prepare
your ingredients for sous-vide cooking so that they are
free from germs and hygienic. Then place the vacuumsealing bag in the cooking compartment to sous-vide
cook the food.
Vacuum-sealing bags
When using the sous-vide cooking method, only use
heat-resistant vacuum-pack bags designed for this
purpose.
The vacuum-sealing bag must only be used once.Do
not use these bags more than once.
Do not cook the food in the bag you bought it in (e.g.
portions of fish). These bags are not suitable for sousvide cooking.
Vacuum-sealing
Use a chamber vacuum-packing machine that can
create a 99% vacuum to vacuum-seal the food. This is
the only way to achieve even heat transfer and therefore
a perfect cooking result.
Note: To fill the vacuum-sealing bag, fold the edge of
the bag down by 3-4 cm and place it into a container,
e.g. into a measuring jug.
Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum in
the vacuum-sealing bag is intact. Make sure that:
■ There is no/hardly any air in the vacuum-sealing
bag.
■ The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed.
■ There are no holes in the vacuum-sealing bag. You
do not use the core temperature probe.
■ You do not pile pieces of meat or fish on top of one
another.
■ As far as possible, you avoid piling up vegetables
and desserts when vacuum-sealing them.
■ To ensure that the seam is perfect, it is important
that the seam area on the edge of the vacuumsealing bag does not become wet with food residue.
If in doubt, place the food into a new vacuum-sealing
bag and vacuum-seal it again.
Food should be vacuum-sealed at most one day before
it is cooked. This is the only way to prevent the escape
of gases from the food (e.g. from vegetables) which
inhibit the transfer of heat, or to prevent the texture of
the food from changing, and thus altering how it cooks,
as a result of the vacuum pressure.
Quality of the food
The quality of the cooking result is 100% influenced by
the quality of the ingredients you use. Use only fresh,
top-quality food. This is the only way to guarantee a
consistent cooking result that delivers impeccable
flavour.
Preparation
Cooking under a vacuum means that the flavours
cannot escape. In using this method, please note that
the usual quantities of seasoning and condiments, such
as herbs, spices and garlic, can have a much greater
effect on the flavour and can intensify the flavour. You
should therefore start off by halving the quantities you
usually use.
If the ingredients are of high quality, it is often sufficient
to enclose them in the vacuum-sealing bag with just a
small knob of butter and a little salt. Generally, the fact
that the food's natural flavours intensify during cooking
is sufficient on its own to produce a flavourful cooking
result.
The following ingredients influence how the food is
prepared:
■ Salt and sugar reduce the cooking time
■ Acidic food, such as lemon or vinegar, help the food
to firm up
■ Alcohol or garlic give the food an unpleasant after-
taste
Do not place the vacuum-sealed food items on top of
one another or too close together on the wire racks. In
order to ensure that the heat is distributed evenly, the
food items should not be touching. Always slide in the
universal pan at level 1 to catch any drops of
condensate.
Caution!
Risk of damage to kitchen units
Only fill the water tank once for sous-vide cooking.Do
not fill the water tank a second time. Otherwise, large
volumes of water will accumulate on the cooking
compartment floor. The water may leak out of the
cooking compartment.
The preparation of food that is listed in the settings
table is based on how long one tankful lasts.
In general, when the water tank has been completely
filled, the following maximum cooking times apply,
depending on the temperature:
Temperature in °CMax. cooking time in min
50270
60210
70150
80120
9090
:Warning – Risk of scalding!
Hot water collects on the vacuum-sealing bag during
cooking. Use an oven cloth to carefully lift the vacuumsealing bag, so that the hot water runs off into the
universal pan or the cooking container. Then use the
oven cloth to carefully remove the vacuum-sealing bag.
Once the food is cooked, allow the cooking
compartment to cool and then use a sponge to wipe
away the water that is on the cooking compartment
floor.
69
en Tested for you in our cooking studio
Dry the vacuum-sealing bag from the outside, place it in
a clean container, and use scissors to open it. Place all
of the food, along with its juices, into the container. You
can use the stock or marinade to make a sauce.
The food can be finished off as follows once the sousvide cooking stage is complete:
Meat: Flash fry in a frying pan at a very high
temperature for a few seconds only on each side.This
gives it a nice crust and the flavours you would expect
from frying, without overcooking it.
Important: Dab the meat with a paper towel before
placing it into hot oil, in order to avoid fat spitting out of
the pan.

Fish: Season and coat with hot butter.
Fry the food for longer if has not been sufficiently well
cooked during the sous-vide cooking stage.
Serve the food on pre-heated plates and, if possible,
with a hot sauce or butter as sous-vide cooking takes

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 increase the time if
necessary.
Tip: Items which were frozen flat or portioned defrost
faster than those frozen in a block.
Using heating type "Reheating", food is reheated gently
using steam. It tastes and looks as though it has been
freshly prepared. Even baked items from the day before
can be re-crisped.
Use containers which are as flat, wide and heatresistant as possible. Cold containers prolong the
reheating process.
Where possible, only reheat dishes of the same size
and type at the same time. If this is not possible, the
time required for the component with the longest
reheating time should be used as a basis.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal settings for various
