Table – Cooking
Select the right pan size for each hotplate. The diameter of the pot or pan base should be the same as that of the hotplate.
Cooking times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight and quality. You yourself can best judge the optimal cooking time.
Use as little water as possible when cooking, so that the food retains its vitamins and minerals. Select short cooking times so that the vegetables remain firm and full of nutrients.

Precautions for use
The following advice is intended to help you save energy and prevent pan damage:
Use pans which are the right size for each burner.
Do not use small pans on large burners. The flame must not touch the sides of the pan.
Do not use damaged pans, which do not sit evenly on the hob. Pans may tip over.
Only use pans with a thick, flat base.
Do not cook without using a lid and make sure the lid is properly fitted. This wastes energy.
Always place the ovenware centrally over the burner.
Otherwise, there is a risk that it may tip over.
Place the pans on the pan supports, never directly on the burner.
Make sure that the pan supports and burner caps are correctly positioned before using the appliance.
Pans should be placed on the hob carefully.
Do not strike the hob and do not place excessive weight on it.
Never use two burners or heat sources to heat one single pan.
Do not use grill pans, earthenware casserole dishes, etc. for a long period of time on maximum power.

Care and cleaning
With attentive care and cleaning, your hob and oven will retain its looks and remain in good working order for a long time. We will explain here how you should care for and clean them correctly.
Notes
■
Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
■
■
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by the oven light.
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Cleaning agents
Damage to the various different surfaces caused by using the wrong cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the following instructions.
When cleaning the hob do not use
■ undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,
■
■
■
■ scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents such as oven cleaner or stain remover, high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.
Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.
When cleaning the oven do not use
■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
■
■ cleaning agent with a high alcohol content, scouring pads,
■
■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.
Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.
Wash new sponges thoroughly before first use.

Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and roasting in the oven and when cooking on the hob, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
■
■
■
■
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the tables in the instruction manual.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins, because they absorb heat particularly well.
Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while the food is baking and roasting.
For longer cooking times, the oven can be turned off
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, and the meal can be finished using residual heat.
Saving energy with the gas hob
■
Always use a saucepan which is the correct size for your food. A larger, less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
■
Always place a suitable lid on the saucepan.
■
The gas flame must always be in contact with the base of the saucepan.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
Tested for you in our cooking studio.
Here you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for them. We will show you which type of heating and which temperature are best suited for your dish. You can find information about suitable accessories and the height at which they should be inserted. There are also tips about cookware and preparation methods.
Notes
■
The values in the table apply to dishes placed into the cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.
Only preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you should do so. Line the accessories with greaseproof paper before preheating.
■
■
■
■
The times specified in the tables are guidelines only. They will depend on the quality and composition of the food.
Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be obtained as special accessories from specialist retailers or from the after-sales service.
Before using the appliance, remove all accessories from the cooking compartment that you will not be using.
Always use oven gloves when taking hot accessories or ovenware out of the cooking compartment.
Your oven is suitable for baking on one level.
Caution!
The appliance was manufactured to suit the reference gases specified in the standards. If a gas is used which does not comply with the specified gas mixture and pressure, cooking performance and heat output may not produce the desired result.

Cakes and pastries
Cake tins
When you are baking in the cake tin, insert the wire rack at the level indicated and place the cake tin on the wire rack.
Dark-coloured cake tins are the most suitable.
If you use light-coloured baking tins or glass, the baking time increases and the cake is not browned evenly.
Only use heat-resistant glass dishes. Do not place a hot glass dish on a cold or wet surface. The glass could break.
If you want to use silicone moulds, follow the guidelines in the manufacturer's instruction manual. Silicone moulds turn out slightly smaller than normal cake tins. For this reason, the quantities may be slightly different to those indicated in your recipe.
Baking tables for the lower burner in the gas oven
In the tables, you will find the optimum types of heating for a selection of cakes and gateaux. The temperature and cooking times depend on the quantity and consistency of the dough.
The values in the table apply to dishes placed into the cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.
The heat is distributed in the oven as soon as the gas escaping from the lower gas burner is ignited. For this reason, the underside of food is usually more browned than the top.

Baking tips
You wish to bake according to your own recipe.
How to tell whether sponge cake is baked through:
Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
Approx. 10 minutes before the end of the baking time stated in the recipe, insert a cocktail stick into the cake at its deepest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
The cake collapses.
The cake has risen in the middle but is lower around the edge.
Next time, add less liquid. Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
Do not grease the edge of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
The cake is too dry.
Make tiny holes in the finished cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an alcoholic drink over it. Next time, reduce the baking time.
The bottom of a fruit cake is too light.
Place the cake one level lower the next time.
The fruit juice overflows.
The pieces of dough are sticking together when the yeast rolls are baked.
Condensation forms when you bake moist cakes.
Next time, use the deeper universal pan (if available).
There must be a distance of about 2 cm between the bread rolls. This gives enough space for the bread rolls to expand and bake evenly on all sides.
Steam can form during baking, which escapes via the door. The steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natural process.
23
Meat, poultry, fish, toast
Table - cooking - gas grill
The values in the table apply to dishes placed in a cold oven.
Turn the pieces of meat after Z of the cooking time.
Always place items in the centre of the wire rack.
If you are grilling directly on the wire rack, you should insert the baking tray at level 1. The fish juices are collected in the pan and the oven is kept cleaner.

Tips for roasting and grilling
The table does not contain information for the weight of the joint.
How to tell when the roast is ready.
Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”.
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast is too dark and the crackling is partly burnt.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the cooler switch panel or on the fronts of adjacent units.
Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products heated at high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips, toast, rolls, bread, baked goods made from shortcrust pastry
(biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).
Recommendations for baking, roasting and grilling with low acrylamide values
General
Oven chips
■
■
Keep cooking times to a minimum.
Cook the food until it is golden brown. "Browned, not charred".
The larger and thicker the food, the less acrylamide it contains.
■
Where possible, spread out a single layer of oven chips evenly on the baking tray. To prevent the chips from trying out quickly, cook at least 400 g on the baking tray.
