The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking compartment leads to corrosion.

Always wipe away the condensation after cooking.
- Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment for a long time with the door closed.
Do not store food in the cooking compartment.

Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over time.

Always allow the cooking compartment to cool down with the door closed after cooking at high temperatures.
Take care not to trap anything in the appliance door.
- Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced during operation.

If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will not close properly when the appliance is in operation. This may damage the front of adjacent kitchen units.

• Keep the seal clean at all times.
  Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may damage it.
  Do not place or hang objects on the appliance door.

• Do not place cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
  With certain models, accessories may scratch the door pane when closing the appliance door.
  Always push accessories fully into the cooking compartment.
  Carrying the appliance by the door handle could break it. The door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance.

• Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle.

2.2 Microwave

3 Environmental protection and saving energy

Help protect the environment by using your appliance in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of reusable materials properly.

3.1 Disposing of packaging

The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.

• Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.

Information about current disposal methods are available from your specialist dealer or local authority.

3.2 Saving energy

If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power.

Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so.

• Not preheating the appliance can reduce the energy used by up to 20% .

Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins.

These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly well.

Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation.

• This will maintain the temperature in the cooking compartment and eliminate the need for the appliance to reheat.

When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel.

• The cooking compartment is heated after baking the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the second cake.

If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends.

• There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the dish.

Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment.

• Accessories that are not being used do not need to be heated.

Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.

• This will save the energy that would otherwise be required to defrost it.

16.2 Tips for keeping acrylamide levels low during cooking

Acrylamide is dangerous to your health and is produced in particular when you cook cereal and potato products at high temperatures.

Dish	Tip
General	■ Keep cooking times as short as possible. ■ Brown dishes until they are golden brown and not too dark. ■ Use large, thick pieces of food. These contain less acrylamide.
Baked items and biscuits	■ Set the temperature for hot air to max. 180 °C. ■ Brush baked items and biscuits with egg or egg yolk. This reduces the production of acrylamide.

Dish	Tip
Oven chips	■ Spread the chips out evenly and in a single layer on the baking tray. ■ Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking tray so that the chips do not dry out.

16.3 Defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave

Recommended settings for defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave.

The cooking time depends on the cookware, as well as on the temperature, composition and quantity of the food. This is why ranges are given in the tables. Begin with the lower value and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time. It may be that you have different quantities from those specified in the tables. There is a rule of thumb for this: Double the amount = almost double the time, half the amount = half the time.

Tips on defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave

Follow these tips for good results when defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave.

Issue	Tip
You want to prepare a dif-ferent amount than that in-dicated in the table.	Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of thumb:Double the amount = almost double the cooking timeHalf the amount = half the cooking time

Heating in the microwave

Recommended settings for heating food.

WARNING - Risk of scalding!

There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little, the hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter.

Always place a spoon in the container when heating liquids. This will prevent delayed boiling.

ATTENTION!

Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or the inner door pane.

Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the inside of the door.

Note:

Tips on defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave next time

Follow these tips for good results when defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave.

Issue	Tip
Your food is too dry.	Reduce the cooking time or select a lower microwave power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.
The time has elapsed but the food is not defrosted, hot or cooked.	Increase the cooking time. Large quantities and food which is piled high require longer times.
The time has elapsed but your food is not yet done on the inside, but is already overdone on the outside.	Stir while cooking. Reduce the microwave power setting and increase the cooking time.
After defrosting, the poultry or meat is defrosted on the outside but not defrosted in the middle.	Reduce the microwave power setting. Turn large pieces of frozen food several times.

16.4 Cakes and baked items

Recommended settings for cakes and baked items. The temperature and baking time depend on the consistency and amount of the mixture. This is why ranges are given in the tables. Begin with the lower value and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time. A lower temperature results in more even browning.

Baking tips

We have compiled a few tips to help you achieve a good baking result.

Issue	Tip
You want your cake to rise evenly.	■ Only grease the base of the springform cake tin. ■ After baking, use a knife to carefully loosen the cake from the baking tin.
You do not want small baked items to stick to each other when baking.	Leave a minimum clearance of 2 cm around each item to be baked. This allows enough space for the baked items to expand and brown on all sides.
Determine whether the cake is ready.	Push a cocktail stick into the highest point on the cake. If no dough sticks to the wood, the cake is ready.
You want to bake using your own recipe.	Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.

Issue	Tip
Use bakeware made of silicone, glass, plastic or ceramic.	■ The bakeware must be heat-resistant up to 250 °C. ■ Cakes in this bakeware brown less. ■ When using the microwave, the cooking time is shorter than the time shown in the table.

Your cake is cooked on the outside but is not fully baked through on the inside.	Reduce the baking temperature and increase the baking time. Add less liquid. For cakes with a moist topping: Pre-bake the base. Sprinkle the baked base with almonds or bread crumbs. Place the topping on the base.
The cake will not come out of the tin when turned upside down.	■ Allow the cake too cool for 5-10 minutes after baking.■ Use a knife to carefully loosen the edge of the cake.■ Turn the cake tin upside down again and cover it several times with a cold, wet cloth.■ Next time you bake, grease the baking tin and sprinkle it with bread crumbs.
Sparks are generated between the tin and the wire rack.	■ Check that the tin is clean on the outside.■ Change the position of the tin in the cooking compartment.■ Continue baking without the microwave and increase the baking time.

16.5 Roasting and grilling

Recommended settings for roasting and grilling The temperature and roasting time depend on the type and amount of food being cooked. This is why ranges are given in the tables. Begin with the lower value and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time.

Roasting in cookware

If you prepare dishes in cookware, you can remove them from the cooking compartment more easily and serve them directly in the cookware. When preparing food in cookware with a lid, the cooking compartment remains cleaner.

General information about roasting in cookware

Use heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware.
Metal roasting dishes are not suitable for roasting with microwaves.
- Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
- Check in advance whether the cookware fits in the cooking compartment.
Glass cookware is best. Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking. The glass may crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
The cookware can become very hot. Use oven gloves to take the cookware out of the oven.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roasting dishes.

Cookware without lid

Use a deep roasting dish.

Cookware with lid

Use a suitable lid that seals well.
- When roasting meat, there should be at least 3cm between the food and the lid as the meat may expand.

• Meat, poultry and fish can also become crispy in a covered roasting dish. Use a roasting dish with a glass lid. If necessary, set a higher temperature.

WARNING - Risk of scalding!

Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened after cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on the temperature.

• Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot steam can escape away from you.
• Keep children at a safe distance.

Notes

Lean meat or pot roast

• Add liquid to the cookware so that it is approx. 1 / 2 ~cm deep, e.g. water, wine, vinegar or similar liquid. The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat, what the cookware is made of and on whether or not a lid is used. More liquid needs to be added to enamelled or dark metal roasting pan than for glass cookware. Add slightly more liquid for pot roasts.
• During roasting, the liquid in the roasting dish will evaporate. Carefully add liquid as necessary.
• Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.

Fish

• When steaming fish, add one to three tablespoons of liquid to the cookware, e.g. lemon juice or vinegar.

Grilling

Grill foods that should be crispy.

• Do not grill food with the oven door open.
• Do not preheat.
• Use food to be grilled that is of a similar weight and thickness. This allows the food to be grilled to brown evenly and remain succulent and juicy.
• Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack.
• Use grill tongs to turn the grilled items. If you pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out and it will become dry.
• Do not add salt until after the meat has been grilled. Salt draws water from the meat.

Note: Dark meat, such as beef, browns more quickly than lighter-coloured meat, such as veal or pork. When grilling light-coloured meat or fish, these often only brown slightly on the surface, although they are cooked and juicy on the inside.

The grill element switches on and off continuously. This is normal. The frequency of this depends on the grill level that is set.

Smoke may be produced when grilling.

Tips for roasting and braising

Follow these tips for good results when roasting and braising.

Issue	Tip
Prevent lean meat from drying out.	■ Coat lean meat with fat or oil as required and cover it with strips of bacon.
Prepare joints with the rind on.	■ Score the rind in a criss-cross pattern. ■ Roast the joint with the rind facing down first.
Keep the cooking compartment as clean as possible.	■ Prepare the food in a covered roasting dish at a higher temperature.

Issue	Tip
The meat should remain succulent and hot, e.g. roast beef.	■ When the roast is ready, switch off the oven and leave it to rest for 10 minutes in the cooking compartment with the door closed. This helps distribute the meat juices more evenly. The resting time is not included in the indicated cooking time. ■ After preparing it, wrap the food in foil.

Beef
