  8. The fire department is being called.
  9. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - WARNING - 1

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Burn Prevention

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.

Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - Burn Prevention - 1

WARNING

Risk of burns!

The inside of the appliance door becomes very hot during operation. Always open the appliance door as far as it will go. Ensure that the appliance door does not swing back. Avoid contact with the inside of the appliance door.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.

Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.

Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Always use oven mitts, when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - WARNING - 1

CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - CAUTION - 1

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Child Safety

When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.

Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.

Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - Child Safety - 1

CAUTION

Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.

Cleaning Safety

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate some by-products which are on the list. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the instructions contained in this booklet and provide good ventilation.

When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.

Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.

Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.

Keep oven free from grease build up.

Cookware Safety

NOTICE

Do not place food directly on oven bottom.

Follow the manufacturer's directions when using cooking or roasting bags.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - NOTICE - 1

CAUTION

Do not leave food or cooking utensils, etc., in the oven during the self-cleaning mode of operation.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - CAUTION - 1

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.

WARNING

Cancer and Reproductive Harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Causes of damage

NOTICES:

  • Accessories, foil, baking paper or cookware on the bottom of the oven interior: do not place any accessories on the bottom of the oven interior. Do not line the bottom of the oven interior with any type of foil or baking paper. Do not place cookware on the bottom of the oven interior when a temperature above 122°F (50 °C) is set. This produces a build-up of heat. Baking and roasting times are no longer correct and the enamel is damaged.
  • Water in the hot oven interior: Never pour water into the hot oven interior. Steam is produced. Damage to the enamel can arise due to the temperature change.
  • Do not leave moist groceries in a closed oven for an extended period of time. It can lead to corrosion inside the oven.
  • Fruit juice can leave stains in the oven. Always remove fruit juice immediately when safe to touch, and wipe up first with a damp and then a dry cloth.
  • Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the oven cavity 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.
  • Highly soiled door seal: the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation if the door seal is highly soiled. Adjoining furniture fronts may be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean.
  • Appliance door as a seat or storage surface: do not stand, sit or hang on the appliance door. Do not place any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
  • Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance type, accessories can scratch the door pane when closing the appliance door. Always slide accessories fully into the oven interior.
  • Do not hold or carry the appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot carry the weight of the device and could break off.

Environmental protection

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an environmentally friendly manner.

Tips for saving energy

  • Open the appliance door as little as possible while cooking, baking or roasting.
  • Use dark, black-painted or enameled baking forms. These absorb the heat particularly well.
  • It is best to bake several cakes in succession. The oven is still warm. This shortens the baking time for the second cake. You can also slide in two loaf tins next to each other.
  • In the hot air mode, you can bake simultaneously on several levels.
  • For longer cooking times, you can switch off the oven 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and you can use the residual heat to finish cooking.

Pyrolysis (self-cleaning)

During self-clean (pyrolysis), the oven heats up to 905^ F ( 485^ C). Thus, remainders from roasting, grilling or baking are burnt up and all you have to do is wipe the ash out of the interior.

Self-clean (pyrolysis) takes three hours. You can move the self-clean switch-off time (for example, if you would like it to run at night).

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - Pyrolysis (self-cleaning) - 1

WARNING

During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning, small amounts of Carbon Monoxide can be created and the fiberglass insulation could give off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. To minimize exposure to these substances, provide good ventilation with an open window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.

Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - WARNING - 1

WARNING

Risk of fire!

Food remainders, grease or roast juice can catch fire during pyrolytic self-cleaning. Before every pyrolytic self-cleaning, remove coarse soiling from the oven interior and from accessories.

  • For safety reasons, the oven door locks automatically. During cooling, the door mechanism is opened as soon as the temperature falls below 390^ (200 °C).

Depending on the type of soiling, white deposits may remain on the enamel surfaces. These deposits are residue from the food and are harmless. They do not affect how the appliance works. If required, you can remove these residues using lemon juice and a soft cloth.

Cleaning the Accessories with the Pyrolytic Self-cleaning Feature

Gaggenau baking trays and broiler pans are coated with pyrolysis-resistant enamel. For optimal results when cleaning the oven, we recommend removing all accessories from the oven before initiating the pyrolytic self-cleaning feature. This is the only way to achieve even heat distribution.

If you wish to remove burnt-on residue from your baking tray or broiler pan with the pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle, please observe the following instructions:

Notes

  • Remove the worst soiling, meat juices, and food residues before initiating the pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. Food residues, grease, and meat juices may catch fire during the pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle.
  • Slide only one baking tray or broiler pan onto the lowest rack in the oven.
  • Push the baking tray or broiler pan in as far as it will go.
  • Wire rack, rotisserie spit, cast iron roaster, baking stone, core temperature sensor, or other accessories must not be cleaned in the pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle.
  • Broiler pans with stainless steel bushings can discolor during the pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. This does not affect its usability.

When you replace the oven interior lamp, the contacts of the lamp holder are live. Before replacing the lamp, remove the power plug or deactivate the circuit breaker or fuse in the fuse box.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - WARNING - 1

WARNING

Risk of burns!

Lamps become very hot when switched on. There is still a risk of burning your skin for some time after they have been switched off. Allow lamps to cool down before replacing them.

Note: Always use a dry cloth to remove the halogen lamp from its packaging. This lengthens the lamp's useful life.

Proceed as follows

  1. Undo the screw on the lamp cover. The lamp cover folds down.
  2. Take out the halogen lamp. Insert the new halogen lamp.
  3. Fold up and screw down the lamp cover.
  4. Switch on the fuse in the fuse box again.

Replacing the glass cover

The glass cover in the oven must be replaced if it is damaged. You can obtain covers from after-sales service. Always specify the E number and the FD number of your appliance.

Tables and tips

Notes

• Always preheat the appliance.
This will produce the best cooking results. The cooking times specified refer to a preheated appliance.
- The values specified are intended as a guide. The actual cooking times depend on the quality and temperature of the food before cooking and the weight and thickness of the food to be cooked.
- The tables list temperature and/or time ranges. Try the lowest value to start. You can always choose a longer time next time if required.
A lower temperature results in more even browning. If necessary, set a higher temperature.
- The specifications refer to average quantities for four people. If you would like to prepare more, you should calculate a longer cooking time.
- Use the cookware specified. If you use other cookware, cooking times may be longer or shorter.
- You may use any heat-resistant cookware. Place the cookware in the center of the wire rack. For large roasts, you can also use the grill or glass tray.
- Do not place too many items close together on the wire racks or baking trays. This guarantees optimal heat circulation.
- To prepare bulky food items, you can remove the shelf supports at both sides. Place the wire rack directly onto the bottom of the oven cavity and place the food or roasting dish onto the wire rack. Do not place the food or roasting dish directly onto the enamel bottom of the oven cavity. Open the door of the preheated oven for a short time only when placing food inside the oven cavity.
- The details for the level refer to the slide-in level from below for appliances with 4 slide-in levels. The values in brackets refer to appliances with 5 slide-in levels.
- When removing glass cookware from the oven, set it down on a dry hot pad, never on a cold or wet surface. Otherwise, the glass may crack.
- Some operating modes are not available with all oven models or only with special accessories.
- Eco hot air:

Energy-saving hot air mode for cakes, meats, casseroles, and gratins. Residual heat is optimally used. Convenience functions remain switched off (e.g the interior lighting). The interior temperature can only be displayed while the appliance is heating up. Do not preheat the oven.

Make sure that the oven cavity is cold and that there is nothing already in there when you place the food inside. Then start the specified cooking time. Always keep the appliance door closed when cooking. This prevents heat loss.

• Full surface grill and full surface grill + circulated air:

With these operating modes, there may be a temperature difference between the temperature you have set and the actual temperature inside the oven.

This is because grilling and browning are fast cooking processes that require high temperatures.

Consequently, for browning and roasting, a higher temperature than is actually needed on the surface of the food is selected.

Vegetables

  • Vegetables from the oven are a good alternative to vegetables from the pan. The flavors are concentrated and the roasting aromas make them very aromatic. Furthermore, very little fat is required for preparation.
  • Wash the vegetables and mix them in a bowl with a little oil. Place in a heat-resistant pan or distribute evenly in the glass/grill tray.
  • During cooking, stir at least once. After cooking, adjust the spices and flavor to taste with fresh herbs.

  • Vegetables are suitable as warm or cold appetizers or vegetarian main dishes, or also as side dishes to be served with fish and meat.

  • For small portions (for 2-3 people), use an ovenproof dish and place it on the wire rack. Otherwise the food will burn or dry out in the glass/wire tray.
  • Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for pre-cooked and frozen products.

Side dishes and dishes

  • The best side dishes from the oven are based on potatoes, for example potatoes au gratin. However, other outstanding side dishes can also be prepared in the oven, which normally are prepared in the pan (e.g. potato pancakes or fried potatoes). The advantages of this tye of preparation: you can prepare larger quantities at once, the cooking smells are distributed less in the room, and you can prepare the dishes with less fat.
  • Another versatile side dish from the oven is cheese. Cheese is an especially good addition to vegetarian dishes, or you can prepare the cheese as an appetizer or finger food.

  • Dishes that are suited for preparation in the oven are especially dishes that are gratinated, such as casseroles and gratins. Suitable also are dishes with a dough base, e.g. pizza or tarte flambée, and egg dishes such as tortillas.

  • For small portions (for 2-3 people), use an ovenproof dish and place it on the wire rack. Otherwise the food will burn or dry out in the glass/wire tray.
  • Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for pre-cooked and frozen products.

Fish

  • Fish should (for hygienic reasons) have a core temperature of at least 144 - 158°F (62 - 70 °C) after cooking. This is also the ideal cooking point.
  • Only salt the fish after cooking. Thus the natural aroma is retained and less water is removed from the fish.
  • Oil the wire rack and baking tray a little bit, then the fish will not stick.

  • For fillets with skin: if you place the fish skin-side up, the structure and aroma will be retained better.

  • Cut wooden skewers short or soak in water overnight before skewering the ingredients so they do not burn.
  • Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for pre-cooked and frozen products.

Meat

  • Use the core temperature sensor so that you can monitor the core temperature more easily. Information and optimum target temperatures can be found in the section entitled → "Core temperature probe" on page 25.
  • Leaving meat to rest: Let meat rest for a further 10 - 15 minutes after cooking. This gives the meat a chance to "relax". The circulation of the meat juice slows down and there is less loss of juice when cutting into the meat. Large pieces of meat, such as roasts, can rest in the oven. Smaller ones, e.g. steaks, should rest outside the oven wrapped in aluminum foil.

  • For small portions (2 - 3 people), use a heat-resistant pan so that the food does not burn or dry out.

  • Use the grill tray or the roasting dish for a large roast and for types of preparation that generate a lot of liquid for roasting.
  • For best results, leave meat to marinate overnight and remove it before roasting or grilling, e.g. using the back of a knife or a spoon. Otherwise, the herbs and spices will burn.

- If the roast gets too dark and the crust is burned in places, reduce the temperature the next time and check the rack level.

- If the roast is cooked but the sauce is burned on, next time use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid. If the sauce is too watery, next time use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid.

Poultry

  • For better results, use the core temperature sensor. Do not place it in the middle (hollow space), but rather between the belly and upper thigh. For notes and optimal target temperatures, see chapter → "Core temperature probe" on page 25
  • Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter, salted water, drippings or orange juice.

  • When cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of the wings to allow the fat to run out.

  • Use a roasting dish or another heat-resistant pan for dishes that generate a lot of liquid for roasting. The same applies if a lot of fat can run out of the food, e.g. with roast goose.

  • Do not grill food with the oven door open.
  • Use the grill tray with inlaid shelf for grilling (depending on the version, accessory or special accessory). Pour approximately 100 ml water into the grill tray; this will catch the meat juices so that the oven stays clean. If you pour in too much water, this may alter the cooking result because too much steam will be produced.
  • The pieces of food to be grilled should be of roughly the same thickness (at least 2 to 3 cm). This will allow them to brown evenly and remain succulent and juicy. Never add salt to meat before grilling it. Place the pieces to be grilled directly on the wire rack.

  • If you use wooden skewers, these can burn. In order to prevent this, cut the skewers as short as possible or soak them overnight in water before spearing the ingredients, or use metal skewers.

  • For small quantities, use the energy-saving "Compact grill" heating function. With this heating function, only the center part of the grill is heated. Place the food to be grilled in the middle of the wire rack.

Baked goods

  • We recommend dark pans of metal since these absorb the heat better. Place the pan in the middle of the wire rack.
  • For sheet cakes without greaseproof paper, oil the pan slightly.
  • Small baked items such as cream puffs, cookies or pastries can be baked on two levels, 1+3 or 2+4.
  • If you bake on several levels it is normal that the trays are not done at the same time. Leave the lower trays bake a little longer or put them in the oven earlier the next time.
  • Before cutting, let the baked goods cool on a rack.
  • If the baked goods are too dark on the bottom: insert one level higher, select a lower temperature.
    If the baked goods are too dark on the top: insert one level lower, select a lower temperature, and extend the baking time a bit.

  • If the cake is too dry, set the temperature a little higher. If the cake is not cooked on the inside, set the temperature a little lower.
    Baking times cannot be shortened by selecting a higher temperature; it is better to select a somewhat lower temperature.

  • If the cake collapses: use less liquid or set the temperature 50^ (10 °C) lower. Do not open the oven door too soon.
  • The cake rises only in the middle: grease the edges of the pan.
  • If the cookies are hard to take off the sheet, insert the sheet in the hot oven again and remove the cookies while they are still warm.
  • If the cake does not come out of the pan when yhou turn it over, use a knife to loosen the cake around the edges. Turn the cake pan upside down again and cover it several times with a cold, wet cloth. Next time, grease the pan well and sprinkle some bread crumbs into it.
  • Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for pre-cooked and frozen products.

Dough proving (leaving to rise)

  • Place the bowl with the dough on the wire rack. Select the "dough proofing" heating function.
  • For large quantities, e.g. bread, set the temperature to 100 - 105°F (38 - 40°C). This way, the dough rises evenly from the middle to the edges.

  • For small quantities of dough, for noodles or rolls, you can set the temperature to 105 - 115°F (40 - 45 °C).

  • The suggested cooking time is only a guideline. Let the dough proof until its volume has doubled.
  • If the dough does not rise, you have used too little yeast or not kneaded the dough enough.

Desserts

- Oven-cooked desserts are very easy to prepare – you just have to put it in the oven. This preparation method is well-suited for larger quantities, for example if you have guests.

- Oven-cooked desserts are generally eaten warm, and are particularly enjoyable during the cooler months.

Defrosting

  • For this, use the "defrost" heating function.
  • The defrost values specified are intended as a guide. The defrost time depends on the size, weight, and shape of the food to be defrosted: freeze your foods flat or separately. This shortens the defrost time.
  • Slide the wire rack with the frozen food into the second shelf level (in the third shelf level if there are five shelf levels). Slide the grill tray underneath to catch any excess liquid.
  • Remove the food from the packaging before defrosting.
  • Only defrost the quantity that you need right away.
  • Please consider: defrosted food will not last as long as frozen food and will spoil more quickly than fresh food. Prepare defrosted food immediately and cook it thoroughly.
  • After half the defrost time has elapsed, turn the meat or fish. Separate defrosted food in pieces, e.g. berries or pieces of meat. Fish does not have to defrost all the way; it is sufficient if the surface is soft enough to take up the spices.

- The oven is not suited for defrosting whole chickens and roasts; this takes a long time. It is much faster to defrost such foods in the steam oven.

GAGGENAU BOP250612 - Defrosting - 1

WARNING

Health risk!

When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred.

Slide the glass/grill tray under the food. Pour away the excess liquid collected from the meat and poultry. Then clean the sink and rinse with plenty of water. Clean the glass/grill tray in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher.

After defrosting, operate the oven for 15 minutes using Hot air at 355^ F ( 180^ C).

Preserving

  • If possible, cook food immediately after purchase or harvesting. Longer storage decreases the vitamin content and can cause spoilage.
  • Only use fruit and vegetables in good condition.
  • The oven is not suited for preserving meat.
  • Check and clean the canning jars, rubber rings, clamps, and springs carefully.

  • Place the canning jars in a heat-resistant container with water. Make sure that they do not touch. The water level must reach at least three quarters of the way up to the top of the contents of the jars.

  • Open the cooking compartment door after the cooking time has elapsed. Do not remove the canning jars from the cooking compartment until they have cooled down completely.
  • Store the preserves in a cool, dark and dry place, e.g. in a pantry. Once the jars have been opened, use the contents up quickly and store in the refrigerator.

Vegetables Wire rack 1 (2) 375–390(190–200)---60 - 120 in closed canning jars

Disinfecting

- Before canning, the jars should be disinfected in the oven in order to prevent spoilage. Only this way is it possible to store canned goods for a longer time and outside the refrigerator.

- Disinfect empty jars at 212^ F ( 100^ C) hot air for at least 20 minutes. The lids and seals for the jars can be disinfected simultaneously in boiling water so that they do not dry out in the dry heat in the oven.

Drying

  • Drying is a preservation method with which, through the feeding in of dry heat, up to 50% of the liquid in food is removed. At the same time, the flavor becomes more intense.
  • The thicker the food is, the longer the drying process takes. Drying is the fastest and most energy-saving method if you want to cut food into slices.

  • Place the prepared food on a roasting dish or tray covered with greaseproof paper. During the drying process, turn the food every now and then.

  • The duration depends on the thickness of the food and the natural moisture in the food since drying tomatoes takes longer than drying mushrooms.
  • If you would like to dry on two levels simultaneously, use levels 1 and 3 (or 2 and 4).

Baking stone

  • You will need a baking stone and heating element – these are optional accessories.
  • Whether you are baking crispy pizza or fresh bread, with the baking stone, you will achieve results that are comparable to, or even exceed, those that you would get from a massive stone oven because you are able to precisely control the baking temperature.
  • Depending on the size, you can also place several pizzas, rolls or other baked goods on the baking stone at the same time.
  • You can bake several pizzas in succession. This may increase the baking time per pizza by approx. 1 - 3 minutes.

  • When baking bread, we recommend that you use the core temperature sensor. Wait 10 - 15 minutes after baking has begun before inserting the core temperature sensor into the thickest part of the bread. The sensor measures the internal temperature of the baked goods and switches the oven off when the set core temperature has been reached.

  • When dough is baked, it needs to be able to expand without the surface breaking apart. This can be achieved by pricking it several times with a fork or by making a cut with a knife.
  • The temperatures and times given in the cooking table are guideline values. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for pre-cooked and frozen products.

Roasting dish

  • You will need a roaster, pull-out system and heating element – these are optional accessories.
  • In the roasting dish, you can also braise large pieces of meat easily and cook large quantities.
  • Food is easy to prepare and can be kept warm in the oven. Your kitchen will look clean and tidy, the cooktop will not be dirty, and there will be fewer cooking odors because the dish was cooked in the oven.

  • The non-stick coating enables you to roast using very little fat.
    Tip: Instead of adding the fat to the roasting dish, oil the meat. This ensures that the heat is transferred directly to the meat.

  • Cooking liquids reduce down quickly. Make sure there is always sufficient cooking liquid. For a cooking time of 30 minutes, add approx. 12 I liquid.
  • When roasting in a sauce, always ensure the sauce remains runny and add cooking liquid.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs

Which foods are affected?

Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products that are heated to high temperatures, such as chips, fries, toast, rolls, bread, fine baked goods (cookies, gingerbread, Christmas spice cookies).

Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
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 hot air at max. 355° F (180 °C).
Cookies Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide. Spread out a single layer evenly on the baking tray.
Oven French friesCook at least 400 g at once on a baking tray so that the fries do not dry out.
