Causes of damage
Caution!
Do not place accessories on the cooking compartment floor. Do not line the cooking compartment floor with foil of any kind or greaseproof paper. Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a temperature of over 50^ is set. This will cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Caution!
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will create steam. The temperature change can damage the enamel.
Caution!
Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
Caution!
When baking very moist fruit flan, do not put too much on the baking tray. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
Caution!
Only leave the cooking compartment to cool with the door closed. Even if the appliance door is only slightly open, the fronts of adjacent units may be damaged over time.
Caution!
If the oven seal is very dirty, the oven door will no longer close properly when the oven is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the oven seal clean.
Caution!
Do not stand or sit on the open oven door. Do not place cookware or accessories on the oven door.
Caution!
Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance, and could break.

Baking
Do not use shelf height 2 when baking with the Hot air operating mode. The air circulation would be impaired and this will have a negative effect on your baking.
Baking accessories
Baking tins
Use dark-coloured metal baking tins. Tinplate and glass dishes increase the baking time required and the cake will not brown evenly. If you wish to bake using tinplate tins and Top/ bottom heat, you should use shelf height 1.
Always place a loaf tin diagonally and a round baking tin in the centre of the wire rack.
Baking trays
We recommend that you only use original baking trays, as these have been optimally designed for the cooking compartment and the operating modes.
Always carefully push the baking trays in as far as they will go. Make sure that the sloping edge of the baking tray is facing the appliance door.
Baking on two levels
When baking on two levels, you should preferably use baking trays and put them in at the same time.
Bear in mind that your items may brown at different rates on each level. The items on the top level will brown most quickly and can be taken out earlier.
Baking table for basic doughs/cake mixtures
The information in the table is a guideline and applies to both aluminium baking trays and dark-coloured baking tins. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of dough/mixture and on the baking tin.
We recommend that you set the lower of the specified temperatures the first time. This will generally allow more even browning.
If you are baking with your own recipe, use similar recipes in the table as a guide.

Tips and tricks
| The cake is too light in colour | Check the shelf height and the recommended bakeware. Place the baking tin on the wire rack and not on the baking tray. Increase the baking time or the temperature. |
| The cake is too dark | Check the shelf height. Shorten the baking time or reduce the temperature. |
| The cake is unevenly browned in the baking tin | Check the shelf height and the temperature. Do not place the baking tin directly in front of the air outlets in the back wall of the cooking compartment. Check for the correct position of the baking tin on the wire rack. |
| The cake is unevenly browned on the baking tray | Check the shelf height and the temperature. When baking small items, make sure that they are the same size and thickness. |
| The cake is too dry | Shorten the baking time and increase the temperature slightly. |
| The cake is too moist in the centre | Reduce the temperature. Note: Higher temperatures do not mean shorter baking times (cooked on the outside, but not on the inside). Increase the baking time and allow the cake dough to prove longer. Add less liquid to the mixture. |
| The cake collapses when you take it out of the oven | Add less liquid to the mixture. Increase the baking time or reduce the temperature. |
| The specified baking time is not correct | For small items, check the amount on the baking tray. The items must not be touching each other. |
| Frozen products are not browned evenly after baking | If frozen products are unevenly browned when prebaked, then uneven browning is to be expected after baking. |
| Frozen products are not browned, not crispy or the specified time is not correct | Remove ice from frozen products before baking them. Do not use heavily frosted frozen products. |
Roasting
There is a risk of injury if you use roasting dishes that are not heat-resistant!
Only use roasting dishes that are marked as being suitable for use in the oven.
Do not use shelf height 2 when roasting with Hot air. This will adversely affect air circulation and your roasting results will not be as good.
Open roasting
For open roasting, a roasting dish without a lid is used.
When you are roasting with Top/bottom heat, you should turn the roast approximately half to two thirds of the way through the roasting time.
Roasting in the universal pan
Juices escape from the roasting meat and are collected in the universal pan. You can use these juices as the basis for a tasty gravy.
You can also cook side dishes (e.g. vegetables) at the same time as roasting meat in the universal pan.
For smaller joints, you can use a smaller roasting dish instead of the universal pan. Place this directly on the wire rack.
Roasting in the universal pan with wire rack
Place the wire rack on the universal pan and slide them into together at the same shelf height.
Roasting with a lid
Roasting dishes with lids are used for this kind of roasting. This method is particularly suitable for pot roasts.
Roasting table
The roasting time and temperature depend on the size, height, type and quality of the item.
As a general rule: the larger the item, the lower the temperature and the longer the roasting time.
The information in the table is a guideline, and relates to items cooked without a lid. The values may vary depending on the type and quantity of the meat/fish and on the roasting dish.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first time. This will generally allow more even browning.
At the end of the roasting time, switch the oven off and leave the roast to rest for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking compartment with the door closed. The recommended rest time is not included in the given roasting times.
The information in the table is for food placed in a cold oven and for meat/fish taken directly from the refrigerator.

Tips and tricks
| Crust too thick and/or roast too dry | Check the shelf height. Reduce temperature or roasting time. |
| Crust too thin Increase the temperature or switch on the grill briefly at the end of the roasting time. | |
| The meat is not cooked right through | Remove any accessories that are not required from the cooking compartment. Increase the roasting time. Check the core temperature of the roast using a meat thermometer. |
| Steam in the cooking compartment is condensing on the appliance door | The steam dries during the course of the cooking. If there is an excessive volume of steam, you can carefully open the door briefly to dissipate the steam more quickly. |
Grilling
Caution!
There is a risk of damage to kitchen units if you grill with the appliance door open: The adjacent units may be damaged by the extreme heat. Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Always use the wire rack and the universal pan when grilling. Place the wire rack in the universal pan and slide them both in at the height specified in the grilling table. Always place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire rack.
If you are grilling more than one piece of meat, make sure that they are the same sort of meat and that they are of similar thickness and weight.
All-round grilling
All-round grilling is particularly suitable for grilling poultry and meat so that it is crispy all round (e.g. roast pork with crackling).
Turn the items after half to two-thirds of the grilling time.
Pierce duck and goose skin under the wings and legs to allow the fat to escape.
Depending on the food you are cooking, the cooking compartment may become more than usually dirty when you cook food on the wire rack using all-round grilling. You should therefore clean the cooking compartment after every use so that the dirt does not burn on.
The information in the table is a guideline, and applies to the enamelled universal pan with wire rack. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of food to be grilled.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first time. This will generally allow more even browning.
At the end of the cooking time, switch the grill off and leave the food to stand for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking compartment with the door closed. The recommended rest time is not included in the grilling times specified.
The values are for food placed in a cold oven and for meat taken directly from the refrigerator.
| Grilled food | Shelf height | Temperature in \( {}^{ \circ }\mathrm{C} \) | Grilling time in minutes |
| Sirloin, medium | 2 | 220 - 240 | 40 - 50 |
| Leg of lamb, boned, medium | 2 | 170 - 190 | 120 - 150 |
| Pork | |||
| Joint of pork with rind | 2 | 170 - 190 | 140 - 160 |
| Pork knuckle | 2 | 180 - 200 | 120 - 150 |
| Poultry (unstuffed) | |||
| Chicken halves, 1 - 2 halves | 2 | 210 - 230 | 40 - 50 |
| Chicken, whole, 1 - 2 chickens | 2 | 200 - 220 | 60 - 80 |
| Duck, whole, 2 - 3 kg | 2 | 180 - 200 | 90 - 120 |
| Goose, whole, 3 - 4 kg | 1 | 150 - 170 | 130 - 160 |
Surface grilling
For large amounts of flat grill items, use the full-surface grill (figure A).
For small amounts of flat grill items, use the centre-area grill.
Place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire rack
(figure B). You will save energy by using the centre-area grill.


Brush the items to be grilled with a little oil to taste.
Turn the items after half to two-thirds of the grilling time.
The information in the table is only a guideline. The values may vary depending on the type and amount of food to be grilled. They are for food placed in a cold oven and for meat taken directly from the refrigerator.
You can influence the grilling result by changing the position of the wire rack.
| Wire rack position | Use |
| Place the stepped wire rack in the universal pan with the step pointing downwards: suitable for items that should be well-done | |
| Place the stepped wire rack in the universal pan with the step pointing upwards: suitable for items that should be rare to medium |
