to as the food probe temperature). As soon as the food reaches the target
temperature (the food probe temperature that should be attained at the end of
the cooking process), operation stops automatically. It is also possible to
simply measure the food probe temperature without stopping operation.
The food probe must be inserted as far into the middle of the meat as
possible to get a correct reading of the food probe temperature.
The optimal target temperature is dependent on the cut of meat and
on the degree of doneness.
Refer to the information on target temperatures in «EasyCook».

7.3 Soft roasting
How it functions
The soft roasting function allows high-quality cuts of meat to be prepared
gently. You can select exactly when the cooking process is complete, irrespective of the weight and thickness of the meat. The temperature is automatically regulated.
Tips for an optimal result
▪ Take the meat out of the refrigerator ½ to 1 hour before soft roasting.
▪ Weight of meat: 500–2000g
▪ Meat thickness: at least 4cm
▪ Quality: lean, high-quality meat

«Soft roasting seared»
▸ Season or marinate the meat.
Remove any marinade made with herbs, mustard, etc. from the meat
before searing. These ingredients burn easily.
▸ Salt the meat immediately before searing.
▸ Briefly sear the meat all over for no longer than 5minutes.
▸ Then place the meat in a glass or porcelain roasting dish.
If you do not intend to sear the meat until after the soft roasting, lower
the recommended target temperature by around 3–4°C.
▸ Insert the food probe into the meat so that the tip is in the centre of the
thickest part.
The food probe must be inserted as far into the middle of the meat as
possible to get a correct reading of the food probe temperature. The
temperature inside the meat is crucial for optimal results at the end of
cooking.
▸ Put the wire shelf at level 2 and place the dish on it.
▸ Insert the food probe plug into the socket.
▸ Start «Soft roasting seared» (see page 43).

12.9 Pyrolytic self-cleaning
Danger of explosion due to deposits and cleaning agents!
Remove grease or oil deposits. Do not use any chemical cleaning
agents. Deposits could give rise to chemical reactions and destroy
the enamel. Poisonous fumes could escape.
Do not leave the appliance unattended.
Risk of burns from hot surfaces! The front of the appliance heats up
more than in normal operation.
There is likely to be some smoke given off for a short period of time
so ventilate the room during the pyrolysis phase.
In pyrolytic self-cleaning, any soiling is burned off at a high temperature.
Possible settings
▪
Lightly soiled Cleaning duration: 1½ hrs.
▪
Medium soiled Cleaning duration: 2 hrs.
▪
Heavily soiled Cleaning duration: 2½ hrs.
The pyrolytic self-cleaning process – including cooling down – takes
about4-5 hours.
