cooking compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking
compartment floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper.
Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a
temperature of over 50 ºC has been set. This will cause heat
to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer
be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
■ Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour water into
the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause
steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the
enamel.
■ Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking
compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods This will
damage the enamel.
■ Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not
pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from
the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If
possible, use the deeper universal pan.
■ Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the cooking
compartment to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance
door is only open a little, front panels of adjacent units could
be damaged over time.
■ Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly when the
appliance is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged.Always keep the door seal clean.
■ Appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not sit on the
appliance door, or place or hang anything on it. Do not place
any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
■ Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance model,
accessories can scratch the door panel when closing the
appliance door. Always insert the accessories into the
cooking compartment as far as they will go.
■ Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the appliance by
the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight
of the appliance and could break.

Your accessories
The accessories supplied with your appliance are suitable for
making many meals. Ensure that you always insert the
accessories into the cooking compartment the right way round.
There is also a selection of optional accessories, with which
you can improve on some of your favourite dishes, or simply to
make working with your oven more convenient.

The accessories can be pulled out approximately halfway until
they lock in place. This allows dishes to be removed easily.
When sliding the accessories into the cooking compartment,
ensure that the indentation is at the back. They can only lock in
place from this position.
Note: The accessories may deform when they become hot.
Once they cool down again, they regain their original shape.
This does not affect their operation.
You can buy accessories from the after-sales service, from
specialist retailers or online.

Setting the oven
There are various ways in which you can set your oven. Here
we will explain how you can select the desired type of heating
and temperature or grill setting.
Note: We recommend preheating the oven before inserting the
food in order to avoid condensation on the oven glass.
Type of heating and temperature

Care and cleaning
With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and
fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain
how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.
Notes
■ Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
■ Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Cleaning agents
To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.
Do not use
■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
The oven will begin to heat up.

Energy-saving and environmental protection tips
In this chapter we offer you some advice about how to save
energy when baking or roasting and how to properly dispose of
the appliance.
Saving energy
■ Preheat the oven only if this is required by a recipe or is
indicated in the tables.
■ Use dark, lacquered or black enamel baking tins. These are
more efficient at absorbing heat.
■ Keep the oven door closed during cooking, baking and
roasting cycles.
■ When baking several cakes, these should be preferably
baked one after the other. The oven will still be hot, thereby
reducing the cooking time for the second cake. Two
rectangular baking tins can be placed side-by-side.
■ For long cooking times, the oven may be turned off
10 minutes prior to the specified time, allowing the item to
continue to cook but taking advantage of the oven's residual
heat.
Environmentally-friendly disposal of waste
Dispose of packaging with the environment in mind.
This appliance is identified according to the Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive WEEE
2002/96/EC. This directive defines the framework for
the recycling and reuse of appliances used in EU
territory.
Tested for you in our cooking studio
Here you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for
them. We will show you which type of heating and which
temperature are best suited for your dish. You can find
information about suitable accessories and the height at which
they should be inserted. There are also tips about cookware
and preparation methods.

■ The values in the table always apply to dishes placed into the
cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.
Only preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you
should do so. Do not line the accessories with greaseproof
paper until after they have been preheated.
■ The times specified in the tables are guidelines only. They will
depend on the quality and composition of the food.
■ Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be
obtained as special accessories from specialist retailers or
from the after-sales service.
Before using the oven, remove any unnecessary accessories
and ovenware from the cooking compartment.
■ Always use oven gloves when taking hot accessories or
ovenware out of the cooking compartment.
Cakes and pastries
Baking tins
It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins.
Baking times are increased when light-coloured baking tins
made of thin metal or glass dishes are used, and cakes do not
brown so evenly.
If you wish to use silicone baking tins, use the information and
recipes provided by the manufacturer as a guide. Silicone
baking tins are often smaller than normal tins. The amount of
mixture and recipe instructions may differ.
Tables
The tables show the ideal type of heating for the various cakes
and pastries. The temperature and baking time depend on the
amount and composition of the mixture. This is why
temperature ranges are given in the tables. You should try the
lower temperature first, since a lower temperature results in
more even browning. You can increase the temperature next
time if necessary.
If you preheat the oven, the baking time is shortened by 5 to 10
minutes.
Additional information can be found in the Baking tips section
following the tables.

Baking tips
You want to bake according to your own
recipe.
How to tell whether sponge cake is
baked through.
The cake collapses. Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the
The cake has risen in the middle but is
lower around the edge.
The cake goes too dark on top. Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little
The cake is too dry. When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit
The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake)
looks good, but is soggy on the inside
(sticky, streaked with water).
The cake is unevenly browned. Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more evenly. Bake
The bottom of a fruit cake is too light. Place the cake one level lower the next time.
The fruit juice overflows. Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one.
Small baked products made out of yeast
dough stick to one another when baking.
Condensation forms when you bake
moist cakes.
Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, stick
a cocktail stick into the cake at the highest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean,
the cake is ready.

Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake care-
fully with a knife.
longer.
juice or an alcoholic beverage over it. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher
and reduce the baking time.
Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature. For
cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs
and then place the topping on top. Follow the recipe and baking times.
delicate pastries on one level using
paper can affect the air circulation. For this reason, always cut greaseproof paper to fit
the baking tray.
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.
Baking may result in the formation of water vapour, which escapes above the door. The
steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natural process.

Meat, poultry, fish
Ovenware
You may use any heatresistant ovenware. The universal pan is
suitable for large roasts.
Glass ovenware is the most suitable. Ensure that the lid of the
roasting dish fits well and closes properly.
Add a little more liquid when using enamelled roasting dishes.
With roasting dishes made of stainless steel, browning is not so
intense and the meat may be somewhat less well cooked.
Increase the cooking times.
Information in the tables:
Ovenware without a lid = open
Ovenware with a lid = closed
Always place the ovenware in the centre of the wire rack.
Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking. The glass
could crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
Roasting
Add in a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. ½ cm of liquid.
Add liquid generously for pot roasts. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. 1 - 2 cm of liquid.
The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat and the
material the ovenware is made of. If preparing meat in an
enamelled roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if
cooked in glass ovenware.
Roasting dishes made from stainless steel are not ideal. The
meat cooks more slowly and browns less fully. Use a higher
temperature and/or a longer cooking time.
Grilling
When grilling, preheat the oven for approx. 3 minutes, before
placing the food into the cooking compartment.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be
of equal thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and
remain succulent and juicy.
Turn the food you are grilling after
Do not add salt to steaks until they have been grilled.
Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack. If you are
grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by placing
it in the centre of the wire rack.
The universal pan should also be inserted at level 1. The meat
juices are collected in the pan and the oven is kept cleaner.
When grilling, do not insert the baking tray or universal pan at
level 4 or 5. The high heat distorts it and the cooking
compartment can be damaged when removing it.
The grill element switches on and off continually. This is normal.
The grill setting determines how frequently this will happen.
Meat
Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.
When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for
an additional 10 minutes. This allows better distribution of the
meat juices.
After cooking, wrap sirloin in aluminium foil and leave it to rest
for 10 minutes in the oven.
For roast pork with a rind, score the rind in a crossways pattern,
then lay the roast in the dish with the rind at the bottom.

Tips for roasting and grilling
The table does not contain information
for the weight of the joint.
How to tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”.
The roast is too dark and the crackling
is partly burnt.
The roast looks good but the juices are
burnt.
The roast looks good but the juices are
too clear and watery.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through
Bakes, gratins, toast with toppings

Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
