Protection of the Environment

Notes on disposal

Your new appliance was protected by suitable packaging while it was on its way to you. All materials used for this purpose are environment-friendly and suitable for recycling. Please make a contribution to protecting the environment by disposing of the packaging appropriately.

Old appliances are not worthless rubbish! Environment-conscious recycling can reclaim valuable raw materials.

Before disposing of your old appliance, please make sure that it is unusable, or label it with a sticker stating "Caution: This appliance is defective!"

Up-to-date information concerning options for disposing of your old appliance and the packaging from the new one can be obtained from your retailer or local municipal office.

How to save energy

  • The oven should only be preheated if recommended in the cooking instructions or the applications table in the instruction manual.
  • Use dark, black-finish or enamelled baking tins, as these are particularly good conductors of heat.
  • When baking several cakes, it is best to bake them one after the other. The oven will still be warm, meaning that the baking time for the second cake will be reduced.
  • For long cooking times, it is possible to switch off the oven 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and thus use the residual heat to finish off the cooking.
  • □ Use the microwave in combination with one type of heating. This is quicker and saves energy.

Important information

Safety information

This appliance complies with all relevant safety regulations for electrical appliances. Repairs should only be carried out by a fully trained authorised engineer otherwise there could be risk of serious injury to the user.

The surfaces of heating and cooking appliances become hot during operation. The interior surfaces of the oven and the heating elements become particularly hot. Keep children at a safe distance. Risk of scalding!

  • The connecting cords of electric appliances must not become trapped in the hot oven door, otherwise the insulating jacket could be damaged. Short-circuit, lightning strike!
  • If the oven door or door seal is damaged, you must not use the oven until it has been repaired by an after-sales service technician. Otherwise microwave energy could escape.
  • Never store combustible items in the oven cavity. These could ignite if the oven is switched on. Fire hazard!
  • If the appliance is defective, remove the mains plug or switch off the fuse in the fuse box. Call the After-sales Service.
  • This appliance must be used for the preparation of food only.
  • □ The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
Page 7

Safety information for microwave operation

  • □ The microwave must only be switched on when there is food in the cooking compartment.
  • The microwave should only be used for heating food and drinks. Using the microwave for other purposes may be dangerous and may result in damage e.g. grains or cereals could catch fire when heated.
□ There is a risk of burning.

When heating up liquids, always place a teaspoon in the container to prevent delayed boiling. When boiling is delayed, the liquid comes to the boil without the customary steam bubbles. The slightest vibration can cause the hot liquid to boil over or spatter violently. This can cause injuries and scalding.

Baby food:

Always heat up baby food in a glass or bottle without the lid or teat. Once heated, the baby food should be stirred or shaken thoroughly to distribute the heat evenly. Always check the temperature before giving the food to your baby. There is a risk of burning.

  • Never heat up food or drinks in tightly sealed containers. There is a risk of explosion.
  • Alcoholic drinks must not be overheated. There is a risk of explosion.
  • Do not heat any meals in heat-retaining packages as they could ignite. Keep an eye on food in containers made of plastic, paper or other combustible materials during heating. Airtight packaging may burst when food is heated.
Page 8

  • The oven door must not be opened if smoke is visible inside the oven. Should this happen, switch off the appliance and isolate the cooker from the power supply at the fuse box.
  • Never cook eggs in their shells nor heat up hard-boiled eggs, as they may crack or explode. The same applies to shellfish and crustaceans. Always prick the yoke first for fried or poached eggs.
  • Always prick the skin of foodstuffs with hard crusts or skins such as apples, tomatoes, potatoes and sausages before cooking to prevent the skin from bursting.
  • Keep a close eye on the oven when you are defrosting or heating foods such as herbs, fruit or mushrooms or foods with a low water content such as bread as overdrying can result in a fire hazard.
  • Never heat up cooking oil in a microwave as it could ignite.
  • Porcelain or ceramic ovenware can have small perforations in the handles or lid. These perforations conceal a cavity below. Any liquid that penetrates this cavity may cause the ovenware to crack.
  • Always use the microwave settings and cooking times specified in the instruction manual. If you select a heat setting that is too high or a cooking time that is too long, this may cause the food to ignite and the appliance to be damaged.
  • The microwave must only be switched on when there is food in the cooking compartment. The appliance may overload if it is switched on without any food in it. An exception to this rule is for short-term testing of ovenware (see notes on ovenware).
Page 9

  • Children must only be allowed to use the microwave if they have been properly instructed. They must be in a position to operate the appliance correctly and understand the risks outlined in these operating instructions.
  • □ Keep the microwave combination oven away from excessive heat and from moisture.

How to prevent damage to your appliance

  • Never place a baking tray or aluminium foil on the oven cavity floor, as this would result in the oven heat being trapped. The baking and roasting times would no longer be maintained and the enamel could be damaged.
  • Never pour water into the hot oven. It could damage the enamel.
  • Fruit juice that drips from the baking tray will leave stubborn stains that can no longer be removed. When baking very juicy fruit flans, it is best to use the deeper glass dish or universal pan (special accessory).
  • The oven door must always close properly. Keep the door seal areas clean.
Page 10

Installation and connection

  • Please observe the special installation instructions.
  • □ The appliance can be installed in a 60 cm wide high-sided unit (at least 85 cm above the floor).
  • The lead must be protected by a 16 A A-type fuse (L-type/B-type MCB). The mains voltage must correspond to that specified on the rating plate.
  • The socket must only be installed and changes to the connection may only be made by a qualified electrician. If the connection is no longer accessible once installation is complete, an all-pole isolator with an "air gap contact separation" must be fitted for insulation purposes.
  • Multiway adaptors, free connectors and extension cables may not be used. These could lead to overloading and cause a fire.
Electrical connection.
Caution!

All appliances with a three-core cable must be earthed.

Page 13
Types of heating

Different types of heating modes are available for the oven, enabling you to select the best method for cooking.

Microwaves

They are converted to heat when coming into contact with food. Microwave operation is ideal for rapid defrosting, warming, melting and cooking.

Microwave power settings:

  • 800 W For heating up liquids.
  • 600 W For heating up and cooking food.
  • 360 W For cooking meat and for warming sensitive food.
  • 180 W For defrosting and continued cooking.
  • 90 W For defrosting sensitive food.
Microwave combined with one type of heating.

This involves the simultaneous operation of the microwave and one type of heating. The food will become just as crispy and brown as before, albeit in much less time and using less energy. The combined operation of microwave and one type of heating is suitable only for cooking on one level.

Top and bottom heat

This ensures the even distribution of heat onto the cake or roast from the top and bottom of the oven. This type of heating is ideal for baking bread, biscuits and cheese cake on one level . Top and bottom heating is also suitable for cooking lean roasts of beef, veal and game in an open or closed roasting pan.

Hot air

A fan in the rear wall of the oven evenly distributes the heat from the top and bottom of the oven. Using the hot air heating system, it is possible to bake on two levels at the same time. This type of heating will also provide optimum results when baking sponge cakes in cake tins or cream puffs.

Select an oven temperature that is 20 to 30 °C lower than that for top and bottom heat.

Page 14

Grilling with circulating air

This type of heating involves the grill heating element and the fan switching on and off alternately. During the pause in heating, the fan circulates the heat generated by the grill around the food. This ensures that pieces of meat are crisped and brown on all sides and that the oven remains cleaner than in top and bottom heating.

Radiant grilling

The entire surface under the grill heating element becomes hot. This is ideal if you wish to cook several steaks, sausages, pieces of fish or slices of toast.

Oven and accessories

There are five different levels for the accessories.

Wire grill for cooking dishes, cake tins, roasts and food for grilling. The wire grill can be used crank up — or down —.

Page 15

Aluminium baking tray HZ 8055

for cakes and biscuits.

Insert the baking tray to the end stop with the sloping edge facing the oven door.

Universal pan HZ 67615 (special

accessory) for large roasts, juicy cakes, soufflés and au gratin dishes. It can also be used as a splash guard when grilling meat directly on the wire grill. For this purpose, insert the universal pan at level 1.

Glass pan HZ 8056 (special

accessory) for large roasts, juicy cakes, soufflés and au gratin dishes. It can also be used as a splash guard when grilling meat directly on the wire grill. For this purpose, insert the glass pan at level 1.

The accessories can be purchased later from a specialist store. Please specify the HZ number.

Page 16

Before using for the first time

Heat up the oven In order to eliminate the "new appliance" smell, preheat the closed, empty oven for 60 minutes.
Set the function selector to .
Turn the temperature selector to 250 °C.
Do not switch on the microwave.
Switch off the function selector and temperature selector after 60 minutes.
Due to the resulting steam, it is best to ventilate the kitchen during this process.
Note The appliance is fitted with a cooling fan. The fan may
continue to operate after the oven has been switched
off. The oven light comes on and the transmitter
behind the glass cover rotates all the time the fan is in
operation. The microwave is switched off.

The fan runs slowly to dry out the moisture and so that adjacent kitchen units are not damaged.

Page 17

The microwave

The microwave can be used separately, i.e., on its own, or combined with one type of heating.

Why not try out the microwave straight away. You could heat up a cup of water for your tea, for example.

Take a large cup without gold or silver decoration and place a teaspoon inside. Insert the wire grill into the oven on level 1. Place the cup of tea in the middle of the wire grill.

Now set the power selector to 800 W and the timer knob to 1 minute.

In doing so, first set the timer to a longer time period, and immediately switch back to a setting of one minute.

A ringing signal sounds after one minute. The water for your tea is ready.

In addition to this example, many other examples can be found in the tables.

Whilst you are drinking your cup of tea, please read again the microwave safety instructions at the start of the instruction manual. They are very important.

Page 18
Use cookware/bakeware made out of glass,
porcelain, ceramic, or heat-resistant plastic. These
materials are permeable to microwave radiation.
Metal cookware/bakeware, on the other hand, is
impermeable to microwave radiation, which means that
food in enclosed metal containers will remain
uncooked. Open and flat metal bowls, e.g. made from
aluminium, can be used.
Take care that the metal is not too close to the oven
wall, as contact could result in sparks. Metal oven
accessories cannot cause sparks provided that they
are used according to the instructions in the tables.
Always place the cookware/bakeware on the wire grill.
Exception: Warming milk bottles. If sparks do occur
between the metal cookware/bakeware base with a
damp cloth.
Often, serving dishes can be used in cooking food. This
saves you having to transfer the food as well as a lot of
washing up. If your crockery features gold or silver
decor, this should only be used if it is guaranteed to be
microwave-suitable according to manufacturer
instructions
Cookware/bakeware test: The microwave appliance must not be switched on
without food in the oven compartment. The only
exception to this rule is for the following cookware/
bakeware test:
Carry out the following test if you are unsure if the
bakeware is microwave-suitable:
Place the empty cookware/bakeware in the oven and
operate at the 800 W microwave setting for ½ to 1
minute . Monitor the temperature during this period. The
cookware/bakeware should still be cold or hand-hot.
The cookware/bakeware is unsuitable if it becomes hot
or if sparks occur.
Microwave power settings
  • 800 Watt For heating up liquids
  • 600 Watt For heating up and cooking food
  • 360 Watt For cooking meat and for warming sensitive food

Cream gateaux and cream cakes are defrosted without the microwave. To do this, switch the function selector to the hot air type of heating. The temperature selector remains switched off. Insert the cake at level 1.

The fan swirls the air around the cooking compartment. This speeds up the defrosting process.

Always cover the food.

Remove the ready-to-erve meals from their aluminium packaging and cook in a microwave-compatible dish. In this way, they are cooked more quickly and evenly.

When heating several meals at the same time, these may heat up at different rates.

Stir or turn the food in between times. In this way, the food heats up more quickly and evenly.

After heating, leave the meals to stand for 1 to 2 minutes so that the temperature can stabilize.

Advice on microwave operation
There is no setting specified for the respective amount of food. Extend or shorten the cooking time according to the following rule of thumb:
Double the amount = double the time
Half the amount = half the time
The food has been cooked too dry. Select a shorter cooking time or lower microwave setting. Add more liquid and cover the food.
On completion of the cooking time, the food has not been defrosted, heated or cooked. Select a longer cooking time and a higher microwave
setting than is specified. Large amounts of food will
take longer to cook. Take into consideration the depth
of the food, as "deep" food will also take longer.
On completion of the cooking time, the food has been overcooked on the Stir the food from time to time and select a lower heat setting and longer duration next time.

After defrosting, the poultry or meat is partially cooked on the outside, but not fully defrosted in the middle.

the inside.

Select a lower microwave power setting. Activate the hot air function A without a temperature setting. With large amounts, turn the items to be defrosted several times.

out of metal can only be used for roasting without the
microwave setting.
When placing meat directly on the wire grill, also insert the universal pan (special accessory) as a splash guard.
Hot glass dishes should be placed on a dry kitchen towel after removal from the oven. The glass could crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
The dishes may become very hot. Always use oven gloves when removing dishes from the oven.
Always place the dishes in the centre of the wire grill.
Advice on roasting The roasting result depends on the type and quality of meat.
The specifications on the following pages apply to roasting in high-sided, open dishes. This ensures that the roast becomes crispy and brown.
2 Add 2 to 3 soup spoons of liquid to lean meat, and 8 to 10 soup spoons of liquid to pot roasts, depending on the size.
Turn the pieces of meat after half of the time.

When the roast is ready, it should be left to stand in the switched off, closed oven for a further 10 minutes. This allows the meat juices to be better distributed.

Cooking in a closed dish ensures that the roast becomes juicier and keeps the oven clean. However, the temperature must be set 10 - 20 °C higher.

Page 30
Advice on grilling

Always close the oven door when grilling.

Wherever possible, use pieces of meat that are of a similar thickness, and at least 2 to 3 cm thick. Such pieces will be browned evenly and stay juicy and soft in the middle. Steaks should only be salted after grilling.

Place the meat for grilling directly on the wire grill. When grilling a single piece, it is best to place the meat in the centre of the wire grill. Also insert the glass dish (special accessory) or the

universal pan (special accessory) at level 1. Any dripping meat juices are collected and the oven stays cleaner as a result.

The wire grill can be inserted crank up — or down —. This allows you to adjust the distance from the grill heating element. Turn the meat after two thirds of the recommended time.

Note: The grill heating element switches on and off automatically. This is normal. How often this occurs depends on the selected grill setting.

The table applies to insertion into a cold oven. The time specifications are provided as guidelines only and depend on the type and quality of the meat.

Poultry

The table applies to insertion into the cold oven.

Frozen poultry must be completely defrosted.

Pierce the skin of duck or goose under the wings to enable the fat to run off.

Turn whole poultry after two thirds of the grilling time.

Poultry will become particularly crispy and brown if you coat it with butter, salty water, dripping fat or orange juice at the end of the roasting time.

Advice on roasting and grilling

The table does not contain specifications for the weight of the roast Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
How can you tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist
stores) or implement a "spoon test". Press a spoon
onto the roast. If it feels firm, it is ready. If it can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling is partly burnt. Check the insertion level and temperature.
The roast looks good, but the sauce is burnt. Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid.
The roast looks good, but the sauce is too light and watery. Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when the stock is added. Use the grilling with circulating air setting rather than
top and bottom heating. This ensures that the meat
juices are not heated so intensely and consequently
produce less steam.
The microwave setting was switched on. The roast is not cooked through. Carve the roast, prepare the sauce in the roasting pan, place the meat slices into the sauce and finish off the cooking using the microwave setting only.
Next time, use the microwave function from the start
of the cooking process. Use a meat thermometer and
leave the finished roast to stand in the oven for a
further 10 minutes.

Advice on baking

You wish to bake using your own recipe. Orientate your baking to similar items from the baking tables.
This way you can see if the sponge cake is baked through. Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the bak-
ing time specified in the cooking instructions, pierce
the highest part of the cake using a wooden skewer.
The cake is ready if no mixture sticks to the skewer.
The cake falls apart. Next time, use less liquid or decrease the oven tem-
perature by 10 degrees. Follow the stirring times in the
cooking instructions.
The cake has risen high in the middle but not on the edge. Do not grease the edge of the spring form. After bak-
ing, carefully loosen the cake using a knife.
The cake is too dark on the top. Insert it on a lower level, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little longer.
The cake is too dark on the bottom. Insert it on a higher level and select a lower tempera-
ture next time.
The cake is too dry. Use a skewer to pierce small holes in the baked cake.
Then trickle the fruit juice or liqueur over the cake.
Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher
and shorten the baking times.
The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake) looks good, but is soggy inside (runny and uncooked). Next time, use a little less liquid and bake for a little
longer but at a lower temperature. When preparing
cakes with soft toppings, bake the cake base first,
then sprinkle almonds or breadcrumbs onto it and
finally add the topping. Please follow the cooking in-
structions and baking times.
The biscuits or cake will not come off the baking tray. Place the tray back into the oven again for a short pe-
riod. Now loosen the biscuits immediately. Next time
line the baking tray with non-stick baking paper
Page 41

The cake will not come out when tipped upside down.

Once baked, allow the cake to cool for 5 to 10 minutes, as it will then be easier to remove from the tin. If it still cannot be removed, carefully loosen the edge using a knife. Turn the cake upside down again and cover the tin several times with a cold, damp cloth. Next time, grease the tin more intensely and sprinkle some breadcrumbs into the tin.

You have measured the oven temperature using your own thermometer and find that the values deviate.

The oven temperature is measured by the manufacturer by means of a test shelf placed in the middle of the oven. The measured value depends very much on the bakeware and accessories being used, meaning that any measurements carried out by yourself will produce different results.

The fruit cake is too light on the bottom. The fruit juice flows over.

You have baked on two levels. The pastry on the upper tray is darker than that on the lower tray.

Next time, use the deeper universal pan (special accessory) or glass dish (special accessory).

Select a slightly lower temperature so that the pastry bakes more evenly.

Pastries which have been inserted at the same time might not necessarily be ready at the same time. Allow the one underneath to bake for an additional 5 - 10 minutes or insert earlier.

Care and cleaning

canng
Do not under any circumstances use a highpressure or steam cleaner.
Appliance exterior Just wipe the appliance with a damp cloth. For
stubborn soil add a few drops of washing-up liquid
to the water. Dry with a dry cloth.
Never use strong or abrasive cleaning agents, as
these can leave the surfaces looking dull. In the event
that such cleaning agents are spilled onto the
appliance, wash the surface immediately with water.
Stainless steel appliances Always remove any flecks of limescale, grease,
cornflour and egg white immediately. Corrosion can
form under such flecks.
Wipe the front of the oven with water and a little washing-up liquid. Dry it with a soft cloth.
Appliances with aluminium front
Use a mild window-cleaning agent and a soft cloth or fluff-free microfibre cloth. Wipe the cloth horizontally over the surface and without applying pressure.
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents,
scratching sponges or rough cleaning cloths.
Clean the aluminium surface with a dry cloth.
Accessories It is best to soak the accessories in household
detergent immediately after use. Any left-over dirt can
then be easily removed using a brush or cleaning
sponge.
Oven Observe the following in order to ensure the long-lasting attractiveness of your oven:
Never use hard scouring pads or coarse cleaning sponges. Oven cleaning agents must only be used on the enamelled surfaces of the oven
Page 43
The grill heating element is permanently installed.
It cannot be removed.
For cleaning You can switch on the oven light by setting the function selector to 🐥.
Cleaning the enamel surfaces A slightly dirty oven can be wiped clean using hot soapy water or diluted vinegar solution.
It is best to use an oven-cleaning agent in order to clean stubborn dirt from the oven.
Oven cleaners must only be used in a cold oven.
Allow the cleaning agent to take effect.
For particularly stubborn dirt, it is possible to heat
up the oven to 50 °C for a maximum of 2 minutes,
but no longer, otherwise the enamel could be
stained.
Rinse out the oven thoroughly.
Notes The oven is enamelled. Enamel must be burned in at very high temperatures, which can cause slight discoloration.
The thin edges of baking trays cannot be completely coated with enamel, and may therefore be rough. Protection against corrosion is guaranteed.
Cleaning the door seal surfaces Always keep the surfaces of the door seal clean so that the door closes properly.
Cleaning the door seal The seal can be removed and washed in hot soapy water (not in a dishwasher).
Cleaning the glass cover
on the oven ceiling
Unscrew the glass cover from the detent (see picture, white arrow) and remove.
For slight dirt:
Wipe the glass cover with hot soapy water.
For intense dirt:
Clean the glass cover in the same manner as the
enamel surfaces within the oven.
When reinserting the cover, screw in until it engages properly.
Page 44

Troubleshooting

Should a malfunction occur, it is often only due to a minor fault. Please read the following instructions before calling the after-sales service:

Problem Possible cause Comments/solution
The oven does not work. Blown fuse. Look in the fuse box and check that the cooker fuse is in working order.
Not plugged in Plug in the oven.
Power failure. Check whether the kitchen light is working.
The microwave does not switch on. The door is not closed properly. Check whether left-over food or a
foreign object is trapped in the door
Make sure that the seal surfaces are
clean Check to see if the door seal has
become twisted.
Timer switch not set Set timer switch.
The food takes longer than usual to heat up. The microwave setting selected was too low. Select a higher setting.
A greater amount than usual was placed in the microwave. Double the amount = almost double the cooking time.
The food was colder than usual. Stir or turn the food during cooking.
The fan is running slowly. The
wave guide under the glass
cover is turning and the oven
light is on even though the
microwave is switched off.
This is not a fault. Consult the note in the "Before using for the first time" section.

Repairs may only be carried out by fully trained after-sales service technicians. Incorrect repairs may result in serious injury to the user.
