]Causes of damage
Causes 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.
■ 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
Microwave
Caution!
■ Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door.
Sparks can irreparably damage the glass on the
inside of the door.
■ Combining accessories: Do not combine the wire
rack with the universal pan. Sparks may be created if
they are inserted directly on top of one another. Only
insert them into their own shelf level.
■ Microwave only: The universal pan and baking tray
are unsuitable when using the microwave only. If you
use either of these, this may create sparks, which
may damage the cooking compartment. Place
cookware on the wire rack provided, or place it in
the microwave and set a type of heating.
■ Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the
appliance. They damage the appliance by producing
sparks.
■ Operating the microwave without food: Operating the
appliance without food in the cooking compartment
may lead to overloading. Never switch on the
microwave unless there is food inside. The short
crockery test is the exception to this rule.

7Environmental protection
Environmental protection
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.
■ Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave output
too high. Use a maximum microwave output of 600
watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass
plate. The door panels may jump if overloaded.
■ 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.
■ Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
when the appliance is in use.
7
en Environmental protection
■ 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.

operation is paused. The operation continues to run
when you close the door.
Interior lighting
If you open the appliance door, the interior lighting
switches on. If the door remains open for longer than
around 15 minutes, the lighting switches off again.
For most operating modes, the interior lighting switches
on as soon as the operation is started. When the
operation has finished, the lighting switches off.
Note: You can set the interior lighting not to come on during the operation in the basic settings. ~ "Basic
settings" on page 18

work properly.
When inserting the wire rack, ensure that the catch
tappet ‚ is at the rear and is facing downwards. The
lettering "microwave" must be at the front and the outer
rail must face downwards ¾.
Note: The accessories may deform when they become hot. This does not affect their function. Once they have cooled down again, they regain their original shape.
Microwave
Only the wire rack provided is suitable when using the
microwave only. If you use the universal pan or the
baking tray, this may create sparks, which may damage
the cooking compartment.
When using the appliance in combination with the
microwave or "Dishes" mode, you can use the universal
pan, baking tray or any other accessories that have
been included with the appliance.
D

^Microwave
Microwave
You can use the microwave to cook, heat up or defrost
food quickly. The microwave can be used on its own, or
in combination with a type of heating.
To ensure optimum use of the microwave, please
observe the notes on cookware and familiarise yourself
with the data in the application tables at the end of the
instruction manual.
Cookware
Not all cookware is suitable for microwaves. To ensure
that your food is heated and the appliance is not
damaged, only use cookware that is suitable for
microwaves.
Heat-resistant cookware made of glass, glass ceramic,
porcelain or heat-resistant plastic is suitable. These
materials allow microwaves to pass through. You can
also use ceramic if it has been fully glazed and has no
cracks.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you having
to transfer food from one dish to another. You should
only use cookware with decorative gold or silver trim if
the manufacturer guarantees that they are suitable for
use in microwaves.
To bake in combined operation, you can use ordinary
metal baking tins. This means that the cake is also
browned from below.
Metal dishes are not suitable for other applications.
Metal does not allow microwaves to pass through. Food
in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must
be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking compartment
walls and the inside of the door. Sparks may irreparably
damage the glass on the inside of the door.
Cookware test
Never switch on the microwave unless there is food
inside. The short cookware test is the only exception to
this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether
your cookware is suitable for use in the microwave.
1. Heat the empty cookware at maximum power for ½
to 1 minute.
2. Check the temperature of the cookware during this
time.
The cookware should remain cold or warm to the touch.
The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks
are generated.
In this case, stop the test.
:Warning
Risk of burns!
The accessible parts become very hot when in
operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a
safe distance.

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.
Keeping the appliance clean
Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt
immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not
build up.
:Warning
Risk of fire!
Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch
fire. Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the
food remnants from the cooking compartment, heating
elements and accessories.

■ Clean the cooking compartment after each use. This
will ensure that dirt cannot be baked on.
■ Always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch
and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately.
■ Use the universal pan for baking very moist cakes.
■ Use suitable ovenware for roasting, e.g. a roasting
dish.

Programmes
You can prepare food very easily using the various
programmes. You select a programme and enter the
weight of your food. The program then applies the most
suitable settings.
To achieve good results, the cooking compartment
must not be too hot for the type of food you have
selected. If it is, a message will appear on the display.
Allow the cooking compartment to cool down and start
again.
Information on the settings
■ The cooking result depends on the quality of the
food and the type of cookware used. For best
results, only use high-quality food and refrigerated
meat.For frozen products, only use food directly from
the freezer.
■ For some dishes, you will be required to enter the
weight. The appliance will then apply the time and
temperature settings for you.
It is not possible to set weights outside the intended
weight range.
■ For roasting programmes, for which the appliance
applies the temperature selection, temperatures can
be as high as 300 °C. Therefore ensure that you are
using heat-resistant cookware.
■ Information about cookware, shelf position or adding
liquid for meat is provided for you. For some dishes,
the food needs to be turned or stirred during
cooking. This is shown briefly on the display after the
start. A signal reminds you to do this at the right
time.
■ Information about suitable cookware and preparation
tips and tricks can be found at the end of the
instruction manual.
Microwave
For the microwave, the appliance provides you with
programmes that allow you to prepare food easily and
quickly. Using the microwave significantly reduces
cooking time – cooking time is virtually cut in half. As
well as baking programmes and roasting programmes,
whereby the microwave function is combined with a

Here, you can find a selection of dishes and the ideal
settings for them. We will show you which type of
heating and temperature are best suited to your dish.
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.
Baking in combination with a microwave
If you bake in combination with a microwave, you can
reduce the cooking time considerably.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Observe the notes on cookware
suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 16
In combined operation, you can use conventional
baking tins made from metal. If sparks form between
the baking tin and the wire rack, check whether the
baking tin is clean on the outside. Change the position
of the baking tin on the wire rack. If this does not help,
continue baking without the microwave. The baking
time will be extended.
If you use baking tins/dishes made from plastic,
ceramic or glass, the baking time indicated in the
settings tables will be reduced. The cake will not brown
as much underneath.
Baking in combination with a microwave is only
possible on one level.
Shelf positions
Use the indicated shelf positions.
Baking on one level When baking on one level, use the following shelf position:
■ Level 1
You can also prepare soufflés in a water bath in the
universal pan. To do so, slide the universal pan in at
level 1.
Baking on two 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.
■ 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
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.
Baking
Here, you can find recommended settings for many
dishes.
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.
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.
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack
Slide the wire rack in with the embossed "microwave"
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.
27
en Tested for you in our cooking studio
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.
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.
Dish Accessories/cookware Shelf po-
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.

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 Hot air 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.

Roasting and braising
Here, you can find information on roasting and braising
poultry and meat. You can find the ideal settings for
many dishes in the settings tables.
Poultry
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.
Meat
Baste lean meat with fat as required or cover it with
strips of bacon.
Score the rind crosswise. If you turn the joint when
cooking, ensure that the rind is underneath at first.
When the joint is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to
rest for another 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment. This allows the meat juices to be better
distributed. Wrap the joint in aluminium foil if necessary.
The recommended resting time is not included in the
cooking time indicated.
Roasting on the wire rack
On the wire rack, poultry and meat will become very
crispy on all sides. Roasting on the wire rack is well
suited for larger poultry or for multiple pieces at the
same time.
Depending on the size and type of the meat, add up to
^ litres of water to the universal pan. Any dripping fat
and meat juices will be caught. You can prepare a
sauce using these meat juices. In addition, less smoke
is generated, and the cooking compartment stays
cleaner.
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards. In addition, slide the
universal pan in at the shelf position underneath with
the slanted edge facing the appliance door.
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.
Roasting in uncovered cookware
It is best to use a deep roasting tin/dish for roasting
poultry and meat. Place the tin/dish onto the wire rack.
If you do not have any suitable cookware, use the
universal pan.
Braising in covered cookware
When preparing food 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 at least 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.
Roasting in combination with a microwave
Certain foodstuffs can be prepared in combination with
a microwave. The cooking time is considerably reduced
by doing so.
As opposed to conventional operation, the cooking time
is based on the total weight when roasting in
combination with a microwave.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in the settings tables, the following basic rule applies: double the quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Roasting dishes made from metal
or Römertopf dishes are only suitable for roasting
without using the microwave. Observe the notes on
cookware suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave"

Caution!
If you use an oven bag, do not seal it shut with metal
clips. Use kitchen string. Do not use metal skewers for
roulades. Sparks may form as a result.

of the food. Different 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 are based on the assumption that
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry and meat are
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 and
meat with default values for the weight. If you wish to
prepare heavier poultry or meat, use the lower
temperature in every case. 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.
A general rule: the larger the poultry or piece of meat is,
the lower the cooking temperature and the longer the
cooking time.

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.
The roast looks good but the juices
are too clear and watery.
The meat gets burned during braising.
The roast is not well-done enough. Carve the roast. Prepare the sauce in the roasting dish and add the sliced roast meat to the sauce. Finish
Grilling
Here, you can find information on grilling poultry, meat
and fish, as well as toast. You can find the ideal settings
for certain dishes in the settings tables.
Grilling with circo-roasting
Circo-roasting is very well suited to the preparation of
whole poultry and fish, in addition to meat, e.g. roast
pork with crackling.
Poultry
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.
Prepare your food in an enclosed roaster 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.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid if necessary.
The roasting dish and lid must fit together well and close properly.
Reduce the temperature and add more liquid when braising if necessary.
cooking the meat using the microwave only.
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.
Meat
Baste lean meat with fat as required or cover it with
strips of bacon.
Score the rind crosswise. If you turn the joint when
cooking, ensure that the rind is underneath at first.
When the joint is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to
rest for another 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment. This allows the meat juices to be better
distributed. Wrap the joint in aluminium foil if necessary.
32
Tested for you in our cooking studio en
The recommended resting time is not included in the
cooking time indicated.
Fish
Fish cooked whole 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 on the wire rack
On the wire rack, poultry and meat will become very
crispy on all sides. Roasting on the wire rack is well
suited for larger poultry or for multiple pieces at the
same time.
Depending on the size and type of the meat, add up to
^ litres of water to the universal pan. Any dripping fat
and meat juices will be caught. You can prepare a
sauce using these meat juices. In addition, less smoke
is generated, and the cooking compartment stays
cleaner.
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards. In addition, slide the
universal pan in at the shelf position underneath with
the slanted edge facing the appliance door.
Roasting 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 if the meat is lean. A covering of
approx. ^ cm depth should be applied to the base of
any glass cookware.
The quantity of liquid is dependent on the type of meat,
the cookware material and also on whether or not a lid
is used. If preparing poultry, meat or fish 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.
Roasting in combination with a microwave
Certain foodstuffs can be prepared in combination with
a microwave. The cooking time is considerably reduced
by doing so.
As opposed to conventional operation, the cooking time
is based on the total weight when roasting in
combination with a microwave.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in the settings tables, the following basic rule applies: double the quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Roasting dishes made from metal
or Römertopf dishes are only suitable for roasting
without using the microwave. Observe the notes on
cookware suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave"
on page 16
Caution!
If you use an oven bag, do not seal it shut with metal
clips. Use kitchen string. Do not use metal skewers for
roulades. Sparks may form as a result.
Grilling flat pieces
Flat pieces of poultry, meat and fish, such as steaks,
drumsticks and burgers, can be prepared well using the
"Grill" heating type. Excellent results are also achieved
when grilling toast.
Grilling
Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards. 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
33
en Tested for you in our cooking studio
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
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for your
poultry, meat and fish, in addition to toast. Temperature
and cooking time depend on the quantity, composition
and temperature of the food. Settings ranges are

■ Do not use frozen products that are heavily frosted.
Remove any ice on the food.
■ Distribute foods which are in pieces, such as bread
rolls and potato products, so that they are spread
flat and evenly on the accessories. Leave a little
space between the individual pieces.
■ Observe the instructions on the packaging.
Preparing food in combination with a microwave
If you prepare food in combination with a microwave,
you can reduce the cooking time considerably.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Observe the notes on cookware
suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 16
In combined operation, you can use conventional
baking tins made from metal. If sparks form between
the baking tin and the wire rack, check whether the
baking tin is clean on the outside. Change the position
of the baking tin on the wire rack. If this does not help,
continue preparing without the microwave. The cooking
time will be extended.
If you use baking tins/dishes made from plastic,
ceramic or glass, the cooking time indicated in the
settings tables will be reduced.
Cooking in combination with a microwave is only
possible on one level.
Take ready-to-eat meals out of the packaging. You can
cook more quickly and evenly using cookware which is
suitable for use in microwaves.
Shelf positions
Use the indicated shelf positions.
Baking on one level When baking on one level, use the following shelf position:
■ Level 1
Baking on two levels Use hot air. 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.
■ Universal pan: Level 3
Baking tray: Level 1
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack
Slide the wire rack in with the embossed "microwave"
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.
Greaseproof paper
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the
selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof paper to
size.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for
various dishes. Temperature and cooking time depend
on the quantity and composition of the product. Setting
ranges are indicated for this reason. Try using the lower
values at first. A lower temperature results in more even
browning. You can use a higher setting next time if
necessary.
Note: Cooking times cannot be reduced by using higher temperatures. The dish would only be cooked on the outside, but would not be fully cooked in the middle.
The setting values apply to dishes 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.
Preheating is necessary for selected dishes, and this is
indicated in the 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.

Microwave
Preparing food in a microwave is ideal if time is of the
essence.
Place the cookware onto the wire rack. Always use
heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for use in
microwaves. Observe the notes on cookware suitable
for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 16
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards.
Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food
which is piled high. Arrange the food as flat as possible
in the cookware for this reason.
Cereal products foam a lot during cooking. For all
cereal products, such as rice, use tall cookware with a
lid.
This will help the food retain its flavour. This means that
you can use salt and seasonings sparingly.
If you cannot find any indicated settings for your food
quantity, you should extend or reduce the cooking time
according to the following basic rule: double the
quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
Stir or turn the food two to three times during this time.
After heating up the food, leave it to rest for two to three
minutes to compensate for the temperature difference.
‚
‚
The food transfers heat to the cookware. It can become
very hot when only using the microwave for preparation.
Shelf position
Slide the wire rack in at level 1 with the cookware on it.
Steaming fish in the microwave
You can also steam fish in the microwave.
To do so, use enclosed cookware that is suitable for
microwave use or use a plate or microwave film to
cover the dish. Observe the notes on cookware suitable
for microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 16
This will help retain the flavour and means you can use
salt and seasonings sparingly. If cooking fish whole,
add one to three tablespoons of water or lemon juice.
After cooking, leave the fish to rest for another 2-3
minutes to compensate for the temperature difference.
Take ready-to-eat meals out of the packaging. You can
cook more quickly and evenly using cookware which is
suitable for use in microwaves.
Custard made from custard powder

As soon as the milk starts to rise, stir thoroughly.
Repeat this step two to three times.
Making rice pudding
1. Weigh the rice and add 4 times as much milk.
2. Pour the rice and milk into a tall container which is
suitable for microwave use.
3. Use the settings indicated in the table.
4. As soon as the milk starts to rise, stir thoroughly and
reduce the microwave power as indicated in the
table.
Stir several times whilst it continues to cook.
Compote
Weigh the fruit in a microwave-suitable container and
add a tablespoon of water for every 100 g. Add sugar
and spices according to taste. Cover the container and
use the settings indicated in the table.
Stir two to three times during the cooking time.
Microwave popcorn
Use flat, heat-resistant glass cookware, e.g. the lid of an
ovenproof dish. Do not use porcelain or heavily curved
plates.
Place the popcorn bag onto the cookware with the
labelled side facing downwards. Use the settings
indicated in the table. The time may need to be
adjusted, depending on the product and quantity in
question.
Remove the popcorn bag after 1^ minutes and shake
it to ensure that the popcorn doesn't burn. Wipe the
cooking compartment clean after preparation.
:Warning
Risk of burns!
Airtight packaging may burst when food is heated.
Always observe the instructions on the packaging.

Eco heating type
Hot air eco is an intelligent heating type for the gentle
preparation of meat, fish and pastries. The appliance
optimally controls the supply of energy to the cooking
compartment. The food is prepared in phases using
residual heat. This means that it remains more
succulent and browns less. Energy can be saved,
depending on the preparation and food.
Place the food into the empty cooking compartment
before it has heated up. Always keep the appliance
door closed when cooking.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will allow you to achieve optimum
cooking results and save energy.
Only use original accessories supplied with your
appliance. These have been tailored to the cooking
compartment and the operating modes of your
appliance.
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack
Slide the wire rack in with the embossed "microwave"
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.
Baking tins and cookware
Dark- coloured metal baking tins are most suitable.
These allow you to make energy savings of up to 35
per cent.
Cookware made from stainless steel or aluminium
reflects heat like a mirror. Non-reflective cookware
made from enamel, heat-resistant glass or coated, diecast aluminium is more suitable.
Tinplate baking tins, ceramic dishes or glass dishes
prolong baking time, and the cake will not brown so
evenly.
Greaseproof paper
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the
selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof paper to
size.
Recommended setting values
Here, you can find specifications for various dishes. The
temperature and baking time depend on the
consistency and amount of the dough. Settings ranges
are indicated for this reason. Try with the lower values
first. A lower temperature results in more even
browning. You can increase the temperature next time if
necessary.
Note: Baking times can not be reduced by using higher temperatures. Cakes or baked items would only be cooked on the outside, but would not be fully cooked in the middle.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs
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.
Baking With top/bottom heating at max. 200 °C.
With hot air at max. 180 °C.
Biscuits With top/bottom heating at max. 190 °C.
With hot air at max. 170 °C.
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chips Spread 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.
Drying
You can achieve outstanding drying results with Hot air.
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.
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.
crisps, chips, sliced bread, bread rolls, bread or fine
baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, spiced biscuit).
Dry herbs on the stem. Position the herbs evenly and
slightly heaped on the wire rack.
Use the following shelf positions for drying:
■ 1 wire rack: Level 2
■ 2 wire racks: Level 3+1
Turn very juicy fruit and vegetables several times. After
drying, remove the dried products from the paper
immediately.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find settings for drying various
foodstuffs. The temperature and cooking time are
dependent on the type, moisture, ripeness and
thickness of the food to be dried. The longer you leave
the food to be dried, the better it will be preserved. The

Preserving
You can preserve fruit and vegetables using your
appliance.
:Warning
Risk of injury!
If the food is preserved incorrectly, the preserving jars
may burst. Follow the instructions for preserving.
Ending the preserving process
Fruit
After a short while, small bubbles will form at short
intervals. Switch off the appliance once all preserving
jars are bubbling. Remove the jars from the cooking
compartment after the indicated cooling time.
Vegetables
After a short while, small bubbles will form at short
intervals. As soon as all preserving jars are bubbling,
Jars
Use only clean and undamaged preserving jars. Only
use heat-resistant, clean and undamaged rubber rings.
Check clips and clamps in advance.
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.
reduce the temperature to 120 °C and allow the jars to
continue to bubble in the closed cooking compartment
as indicated in the table. After this time has elapsed,
switch off the appliance and make use of the residual
heat for several minutes as indicated in the table.
After preserving, remove the jars from the cooking
compartment and place them onto a clean cloth. Do not
place these hot jars onto a cold or damp surface, as
they may crack. Cover the preserving jars to protect
them from draughts. Only remove the clamps once the
jars are cold.
Recommended setting values
The indicated times in the settings table are average
values for preserving fruit and vegetables. They may be
influenced by room temperature, the number of jars,
quantity, heat and quality of the jar contents. The
specifications are based on 1-litre round jars. Before
you switch off the appliance or change the cooking
mode, check whether the contents of the jars are
bubbling as they should. The bubbling process starts
Fruit
after approx. 30-60 minutes.
Fill the preserving jars with the fruit along with a hot,
skimmed sugar solution (approx. 400 ml for a 1-litre
jar). For one litre of water:
■ Approx. 250 g sugar for sweet fruit
■ Approx. 500 g sugar for sour fruit

Defrosting
Use the "Microwave" operation mode to defrost frozen
fruit, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish and baked items.
Remove the frozen food from its packaging and place it
onto the wire rack in cookware suitable for microwave
use. Observe the notes on cookware suitable for
microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 16
Slide the wire rack in with the imprint "Microwave"
facing the appliance door and the outer rail facing
downwards.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will allow you to achieve optimum
cooking results and save energy.
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 extend the time if
necessary. You can often achieve better results when
defrosting in several steps. These are indicated one
below the other in the table.
Tip: Items which were frozen flat or portioned defrost faster than those frozen in a block.
Stir the food or turn it once or twice in between. Large
pieces of food should be turned several times.
Occasionally split the food or remove items which have
already defrosted from the cooking compartment.
Leave the defrosted food to rest for another 10 to 30
minutes in the appliance whilst it is switched off, so that
the temperature balances out.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in the settings table, this basic rule will help: double the quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.

Heating food in a microwave
Using the microwave, you can heat food, or defrost and
heat it in a single step.
Take ready-to-eat meals out of the packaging. The food
will heat up more quickly and evenly in cookware that is
suitable for microwaves. The various components of a
dish may require different times to heat up.
Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food
which is piled high. Arrange the food as flat as possible
in the cookware for this reason. Food should not be
vertically stacked.
Cover the food. This will ensure better cooking results. If
you do not have a lid that fits your cookware, use a
plate or microwave film for this purpose.
Stir food two to three times during cooking and turn it if
necessary. After heating food up, leave it to rest for 1 to
2 minutes to compensate for the temperature
difference.
•
•
•
If you are heating up baby food, place the bottle onto
the wire rack without the teat or the lid. After heating up,
shake well or stir and be sure to check the temperature.
The food transfers heat to the cookware. It can become
very hot when only using the microwave for preparation.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in the settings table, this basic rule will help: double the quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.

:Warning
Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is
heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling
temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to
the surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little,
the hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter. When
heating, always place a spoon in the container. This will
prevent delayed boiling.

Caution!
Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door. Sparks
can irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the
door.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the setting values for heating
various drinks and foodstuffs up in the microwave. The
times specified are only average values. These depend
on the cookware used, the quality, temperature and
composition of the food in question. Time ranges are
indicated. Set the shortest time first and then extend the
time if necessary.
The values in the table apply to food placed into a cold
cooking compartment.
If no values are indicated for your food, use similar
foods in the table as orientation.
Remove any accessories from the cooking
compartment which are not being used. This will ensure
optimum cooking results and will also save energy.
Wipe the cooking compartment clean after cooking.
