Oven operating modes

Here you will receive an overview of the four oven functions: hot air functions, conventional functions, grill functions and special functions. The oven functions are divided into the following operating modes.

Hot air functions * The hot air functions include:

Circotherm A fan system located in the rear oven wall circulates

the circotherm in the oven, achieving an especially effective heat transfer to the food being baked or roasted.

Advantages:

–Simultaneous baking and roasting is possible in

the main oven on up to 3 shelf positions

– Baking and roasting is possible in the mini oven

on one shelf position only

–low soiling of oven interior – shorter preheating times –low oven temperatures – gentle defrosting, see the Defrosting and cooking

section for adjusting the defrost setting.

Circotherm intensive The Circotherm intensive adds the bottom heat to

the circotherm.

Advantages:

–Fresh preparation with a high ”moisture content”,

e.g. pizza and juicy cakes with crisp base.

– Especially suited for frozen products, e.g. pizzas,

chips etc.

Bread baking Bread baking with hot air function.

Adjustable 180 – 220° C.

Note Rapid heat up

Can be selected for Circotherm or bread baking setting.

Conventional functions

/ The conventional functions include:

Top/bottom heat The food being baked or roasted is exposed to heat (Conventional heating system) radiation from heating elements located at the top

and bottom of the oven cavity.

Baking and roasting is possible on one shelf position only.

Advantages:

– Baking of cake with wet fillings, pizza, quiche.

Bottom heat With this setting, only the heating element at the

bottom of the oven cavity is activated.

Advantage:

– Particularly useful with dishes and baked goods

that require a distinctive bottom crust or browning.

 Use just before the end of the baking or roasting

time.

Grill functions ) The grill functions include:

Large area grill The food being prepared is exposed to heat radiation

from the heating element at the top of the oven cavity.

Advantages:

–Particularly effective with flat, small cuts of meat,

i.e., steaks, sausages, fish, vegetables and toast.

–the entire grilling surface heats up – especially useful with large amounts of food.

Small area grill Advantages:

– only the centre area of the grilling surface heats

– especially useful with small amounts of food – energy-saving operation.

Circo-roasting With circo-roasting, the air circulating fan and the

grilling elements are activated alternataly.

The heat generated by the grilling element is evenly distributed in the oven cavity.

Advantage:

–Particularly effective with poultry.

Special functions

( The special functions include:

Steam cooking For system steam cooker (option available from – main oven specialist dealers).

Dough proving The dough proving function provides ideal conditions – main oven inside the oven for getting yeast dough to rise.

Te mperature: 35 – 38° C Humidity: 75 – 100%

Advantages:

–rapid and uniform increase in volume of dough – dough does not dry out – dough does not form a skin which means that it

very easy to process and work into the required shape

– exclusion of unfavourable external influences

(e.g. draughts).

–yoghurt can be made.

EasyClean

The oven cleaning function featured in your oven is

– main oven intended to help you keep your oven neat and tidy.

An amount of cleaning solution is vaporised automatically. The combined effects of heat and steam soften the soil deposits on the oven wall enamel and facilitate their removal. For more information on this function, see the section on ”Cleaning and Care” later in this booklet.

Advantages:

–takes the toil out of oven cleaning –protects the enamel on interior surfaces – constitutes an environmentally friendly cleaning

method.

Oven Cleaning Oven cleaning is a regeneration programme. – mini oven If the self-cleaning panels in the oven are no longer

adequately cleaned during normal day-to-day operation, they will be regenerated with this function. They will then be fully functional again.

Baking

Using baking tins Always place baking tins in the centre of the

baking wire shelf.

We recommend dark metallic baking tins.

Notes Light coloured baking tins made from thin-wall

materials lead to longer baking times and uneven browning of the cake.

You can influence the degree of browning by changing the temperature setting.

If a cake collapses after removing it from the oven, consider using a longer baking time, or use a slightly lower temperature setting.

Using baking sheets The slanted (handle) end of the baking sheet must

always face the oven door.

To avoid damage, insert slide-in accessories carefully.

Always fully insert baking sheets into the oven.

Use only original baking sheets.

Using tinplate baking tins

* Circotherm Shelf position 1 / Top/bottom heat Shelf position 1

If the cake bottom gets too dark:

Check the shelf position. Shorten the baking time, and possibly use a lower baking temperature.

If the cake bottom stays too light:

Check the shelf position. Increase the baking time, select a lower temperature, or use a dark metal baking tin.

Do not place baking forms or high cakes too close to the rear oven wall.

To save energy Preheat only if expressly required by the recipe.

Dark baking tins have a higher degree of heat absorption.

Residual heat: In the case of longer baking times, you can switch off the oven 5-10 minutes before the full baking time has elapsed.

Roasting Place the wire shelf in the universal pan and slide

both into the oven at the same shelf position.

Meat can be roasted in the oven in a particularly economical fashion if the weight of the cut exceeds 750 grams.

Roasting in an uncovered Rinse the universal pan and/or the roaster with pot water, and place the meat into it.

With fat meat and poultry, pour 125 to 250 ml of water (to suit the size and kind of roast) into the universal pan. At your discretion, baste lean meat with fat, or cover it with bacon strips.

The roast drippings collecting in the universal pan make a tasty gravy. Dissolve the drippings with hot water, bring to a boil, thicken with corn starch, season to taste and, if required, pass it through a strainer.

No preheating is required. Save energy by putting the roast into the oven while it is still cold.

Roasting in a covered pot Place the meat into the roasting pot (or Dutch oven),

cover it with a matching lid, and place it on the wire shelf in the oven. We recommend that beef roast be prepared in a covered roasting pot.

Roasting on the roasting sheet Place the roasting sheet into the universal pan.

(Optional accessory available The roasting sheet prevents soiling of the oven. from your dealer).

Grease and juice drippings from the roast are collected in the universal pan.
