Electrical safety
• This appliance must be only connected by a registered electrician.
• In the event of a fault or damage to the appliance: Take the fuses out
or switch off.
• Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by qualified service engineers. Considerable danger may result from improper repairs.
If repairs become necessary, please contact our Customer Services or
your dealer.
Child Safety
• Never leave children unsupervised when the appliance is in use.
Safety during use
• This appliance should be used only for normal domestic cooking,
roasting and baking of food.
• Do not use the hob to heat up the room.
• Overheated fats and oils can ignite quickly. If you are cooking foods
in fat or oil (e. g. chips), you should watch the cooking process.
• If you are using cookware with a long handle, turn the handle so that
it does not project over the ring. Make sure that the handle is not positioned over a hot or warm cooking zone.
• Be careful if connecting electrical appliances to sockets near to this
appliance. Electrical leads should not be allowed to come near the
rings or to become caught under the hot oven door.
• Switch the hotplates off after each use.
• Warning: Risk of burns! The interior surfaces of the oven become
very hot during use.
5
• If you use ingredients containing alcohol in the oven, a slightly flammable mixture of alcohol and air may ensue. In this case, be careful
when opening the door. Do not handle any sources of heat, sparks or
naked flames when doing so.
3
Information on acrylamides
According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of
food, especially in products containing starch, can constitute a health
risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we recommend cooking at the lowest
possible temperatures and not browning foods too much.
How to avoid damage to the appliance
• The hob must not be used as a work surface or as a storage surface.
• Before opening the decorative lid, any spills must be cleaned from the
lid.
• Do not operate the hot plates with empty cookware or without cookware.
• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e. g. vinegar, lemon or limescale removing agents, get onto the hob, as otherwise this will cause matt
patches.
• Pointed objects and hard objects that fall onto the cooking surface
can damage it.
• Keep all objects and materials that might melt well away from the
hob, e. g. plastics, tin foils or oven foils.
• Do not line the oven with aluminium foil and do not place baking
trays, pots, etc. on the oven floor, as the heat that builds up will damage the oven enamel.
• Fruit juices dripping from the baking tray will leave stains, which you
will not be able to remove. For very moist cakes, use a deep tray.
• Do not put any strain on the oven door when open.
• Never pour water directly into the oven when it is hot. This could
cause damage to or discoloration of the enamel.
• Rough handling, especially around the edges of the front panel, can
cause the glass to break.
• Do not store any flammable materials inside the oven. These could ignite when the oven is switched on.
• Do not store any moist foods inside the oven. This could cause damage to the enamel.

General Instructions:
• Quick hotplates are distinguished from normal hotplates by their
higher power. They are indicated by a red dot which disappears after
a while after heating and cleaning.
• Because of condensation and the beginnings of rust formation,
please do not place wet saucepan lids on the hotplate and do not
leave hot pans to cool on the hotplate.
Keep all objects and materials that might melt well away from the hob,
e. g. plastics, tin foils or oven foils.
Heat settings
You can set the heat settings from 0,5 – 3.
0,5 = lowest power
3 = highest power
Switch the cooking zone off approx. 5-10 minutes before cooking is
finished to make use of the residual heat. This saves electricity.

an anti-tip device and must always point to the rear of the oven.
Tray or universal baking tray:
The anti-tip device must point towards the rear of the oven.
Inserting shelf:
Insert the shelf unit with both guide
rails pointing upwards. The anti-tip
device must point downwards and
be positioned to the rear of the
oven compartment.
Inserting shelf and tray:
When the shelf unit and universal
baking tray are used together, carefully place the shelf anti-tip device
in the bulges on the tray.

Uses, Tables and Tips
Pans
• The better the pan, the better the results.
• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as
thick and flat as possible.
• When buying new pans pay particular attention to the diameter of
the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper
rim.
• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be
bowed outwards (convex).
2
Energy saving tips
You will save valuable energy if you observe the following tips:
• Always place pots and pans on the hotplate before switching it on.
• Soiled hotplates and pan bases cause increased power consumption.
• If possible, always fit pans with a
lid.
• Switch off the hotplates before
the end of cooking to make use of
the residual heat, e.g., to keep
food warm or for melting.
• The pan base should be the same
size as the hotplate.
• By using a pressure cooker cooking times can be reduced by up to
50%.

We recommend when boiling or searing foods using the highest heat
setting at first and then letting foods requiring a longer cooking time
finish cooking on the desired heat setting.
Overheated fats and oils can ignite quickly. If you are cooking foods in
fat or oil (e.g. chips), remain nearby.
Baking
Oven function: Fan-assisted circulation
or Conventional
Baking tins
• For Conventional , dark metal and non-stick tins are suitable.
• For Fan-assisted circulation bright metal tins are also suitable.
Oven levels
• Baking with Conventional is only possible on one level.
• With Fan-assisted circulation you can bake dry cakes and biscuits
on 2 baking trays at the same time.
1 baking tray:
e.g. oven level 3
1 cake tin:
e.g. oven level 1
2 baking trays:
e. g. oven levels 1 and 3

General Instructions
• Insert the tray with the bevel at the front.
• With Conventional or Fan-assisted circulation you can also
bake with two tins next to one another on the oven shelf at the same
time. This does not significantly increase baking time.
When frozen foods are used the trays inserted may distort during cooking. This is due to the large difference in temperature between the
freezing temperature and the temperature in the oven. Once the trays
have cooled the distortion will disappear again.
How to use the Baking Tables
The tables give the required temperature settings, baking times and
oven shelf levels for a selection of typical dishes.
• Temperatures and baking times are for guidance only, as these will
depend on the consistency of pastry or mixture, the number and the
type of cake tin.
• We recommend using the lower temperature the first time and then
if necessary, for example, if a deeper browning is required, or baking
time is too long, selecting a higher temperature.
• If you cannot find the settings for a particular recipe, look for the
one that is most similar.
• If baking cakes on baking trays or in tins on more than one level, baking time can be extended by 10-15 minutes.
• Moist recipes (for example, pizzas, fruit flans, etc.) are baked on one
level.
• Cakes and pastries at different heights may brown at an uneven rate
at first. If this occurs, please do not change the temperature setting. Different rates of browning even out as baking progresses.
With longer baking times, you can switch the oven off about 10 minutes before the end of the baking time, in order to utilise the residual
heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the values given in the tables assume that
cooking is started with the oven cold.

Roasting
Oven function: Conventional
or Rothitherm
Roasting dishes
• Any heat-resistant ovenware is suitable to use for roasting (please
read the manufacturer's instructions).
• Large roasting joints can be roasted directly in the roasting tray or
on the oven shelf with the roasting tray placed below it.
• For all lean meats, we recommend roasting these in a roasting tin
with a lid. This will keep the meat more succulent.
• All types of meat, that can be browned or have crackling, can be
roasted in the roasting tin without the lid.
3
Tips on using the roasting chart
The information given in the following table is for guidance only.
• We recommend cooking meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above in
the oven.
• To prevent escaping meat juices or fat from burning on to the pan,
we recommend placing some liquid in the roasting pan.
• If required, turn the roast (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
• Baste large roasts and poultry with their juices several times during
roasting. This will give better roasting results.
• You can switch the oven off about 10 minutes before the end of the
roasting time, in order to utilise the residual heat.

Making Preserves
Oven function: Bottom heat
• For preserving, use only commercially available preserve jars of the
same size.
• Jars with twist-off or bayonet type lids and metal tins are not
suitable.
• When making preserves, the first shelf position from the bottom is
the one most used.
• Use the baking tray for making preserves. There is enough room on
this for up to six 1-litre preserving jars.
• The jars should all be filled to the same level and clamped shut.
• Place the jars on the baking tray in such a way that they are not
touching each other.
• Pour approx. 1/2 litre of water into the baking tray, so that there is
sufficient moisture in the oven.
• As soon as the liquid starts to pearl in the first jars (after about 35-60
minutes with 1 litre jars), switch the oven off or reduce the temperature to 100°C (see table).

In the event of damage caused by inappropriate repairs, the guarantee
may not cover the work carried out by Customer Service or your dealer's repair technicians.
Advice on cookers with metal fronts:
Because of the cold surface at the front of the cooker, opening the
oven door during (or just after) baking or roasting may cause the glass
to steam up.
Instruction on setting up
1
Important! The new appliance may only be installed and connected by
qualified personnel.
Please observe this instruction, otherwise the warranty will not cover
any damage that may occur.
Setting up
• In the units or furniture surrounding the appliance, veneers or plastic
coatings must have been made up using heat-resistant bonding
agents (100°C). If plastic coatings or cements are not sufficiently
heat-resistant, the coating may be deformed or loosened.
• The appliance may be installed up against tall units or walls on one
side only.
• The distance between the cooking surface and the cooker hood must
as a minimum be as great as that indicated in the installation instructions for the cooker hood.
• If the appliance is being placed on a base, measures must be taken to
prevent the appliance from sliding off the base.
Making the appliance level
3
Underneath the appliance there are
4 adjustable feet, which can be used
to even out small unlevelnesses in
the floor.
1. Remove the pan drawer.
2. Turn the adjustable feet to make
them higher or lower as required,
until the cooker is standing level.
3. Re-insert the pan drawer.
The adjustable feet are easier to
turn, if the cooker is tilted slightly
to take the weight off the foot.
41
1
Safety information for the installer
• The set-up of the electrical installation is arranged so that the appliance can be isolated from the mains with a minimum 3 mm all-pole
contact separation.
Suitable separation devices include e. g. cut-outs, fuses (screw fuses
are to be taken out of the holder), RCD’s and contactors.
• Avoid installing the appliance next to doors and under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be knocked off the rings when doors and
windows are opened.
• The appliance must be connected to the electricity according to the
connection schematic on the outside of the terminal cover.
• The cable which connects the appliance to the mains must correspond to insulation standard H05VV-F (=227 IEC 53) as a minimum.
42
Service
In the “What to do if …” section a number of malfunctions are listed
that you can rectify yourself Look there first if a fault occurs.
Is it a technical fault?
If so, please contact your customer service centre. (You will find addresses and telephone numbers in the section “Customer Service Centres”.)
Always prepare in advance for the discussion. This will make diagnosis
of the problem easier and also make it easier to decide if a customer
service visit is necessary:
Please make a note of the following information as accurately as possible:
• What form does the fault take?
• Under what circumstances does the fault occur?
Prior to the telephone call it is important that you make a note of the
following appliance code numbers
that are given on the rating plate:
• model description,
• PNC code (9 digits),
• S No code (8 digits).
We recommend that you record the
code numbers here so that you always have them to hand:
Model:
. . . . . . . . . . .
PNC:
. . . . . . . . . . .
S-No:
. . . . . . . . . . .
When do you incur costs even during the warranty period?
• if you could have remedied the fault yourself using the fault table
(see section “What to do if …”),
• if the customer service technician has to make several journeys because he was not provided with all the relevant information before
his visit and therefore, forexample, has to fetch spare parts. These
multiple trips can be avoided if you prepare your phone call as described above.
