3 Environmental protection and saving energy

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.

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 maintains the temperature in the cooking compartment and eliminates 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 saves the energy that would otherwise be required to defrost it.

Note:

The appliance requires:

¡ A maximum of 1 W when the appliance is in operation with the display switched on

¡ A maximum of 0.5 W when the appliance is in operation with the display switched off

16.3 Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking compartment

The back panel in the cooking compartment is selfcleaning. The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a porous, matte ceramic layer and have a coarse surface. When the appliance is in operation, the self-cleaning surfaces absorb splashes from baking, roasting or grilling and break them down. If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean themselves adequately during operation, heat up the cooking compartment specifically to the right temperature.

ATTENTION!

If you do not clean the self-cleaning surfaces regularly, they may become damaged.

▶

If dark stains are visible on the self-cleaning surfaces, heat up the cooking compartment.

▶

Do not use oven cleaner or abrasive cleaning aids.

If oven cleaner accidentally comes into contact with the self-cleaning surfaces, dab it off immediately using water and a sponge cloth. Do not rub.

1.

Remove accessories and cookware from the cooking compartment.

2.

Detach the shelf supports and remove them from the cooking compartment.


3.

Remove coarse dirt using soapy water and a soft cloth:

– From the smooth enamel surfaces

– From the inside of the appliance door

– From the glass cover on the oven light

This prevents stains that cannot be removed.

4.

Remove any objects from the cooking compartment.

The cooking compartment must be empty.

5.

Set the 4D hot air type of heating.

6.

Set the maximum temperature.

7.

9.

Once the appliance has cooled down, wipe the cooking compartment with a damp cloth.

Note: Marks may appear on the self-cleaning surfaces. Residues of sugar and egg white in the food are not removed and stick to the surfaces. Red stains are residues from salty food – they are not rust. The stains are not hazardous to health. These marks do not impair the cleaning ability of the selfcleaning surfaces.

10.

Attach the shelf supports.


17 Cleaning assistance

The cleaning assistance is a quick alternative for occasionally cleaning the cooking compartment. The cleaning assistance softens dirt by vaporising the soapy water. It is then easier to remove dirt.

Descaling en

18 Descaling

To ensure that your appliance continues to operate correctly, it must be descaled regularly.

How frequently you need to run the descaling programme will depend on the water hardness and how many times you have used the steam function. The appliance indicates when only another five or fewer steam-assisted operations are possible. If you do not carry out the descaling, you can no longer set any operation with steam.

Descaling comprises several steps and takes approx.

70–95 minutes:

¡ Descaling (approx. 55–70 minutes)

¡ First rinse cycle (approx. 9–12 minutes)

¡ Second rinse cycle (approx. 9–12 minutes)

For reasons of hygiene, the descaling programme must be run in full.

If descaling is interrupted, you can no longer set any operation. To ensure that the appliance is ready for operation again, carry out two rinse cycles.

18.1 Preparing descaling

ATTENTION!

The length of time for which the descaler is left to work is based on the recommended, liquid descaler. Other descalers may damage the appliance.

▶

Only use the liquid descaler recommended by us for the descaling programme.

If descaling solution comes into contact with the control panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.

en How it works

25 How it works

Here, you can find the ideal settings for various types of food as well as the best accessories and cookware.

We have perfectly tailored these recommendations to your appliance.

25.1 General cooking tips

Please take note of the following information when cooking all types of food.

¡ The temperature and cooking time depend on the amount of food and the recipe. Settings ranges are specified for this reason. Try using the lower values to start with.

¡ The setting values apply to food placed in the cooking compartment while the cooking compartment is still cold. Do not place accessories into the cooking compartment until it has finished preheating.

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

25.2 Baking tips

¡ Dark-coloured metal baking tins are most suitable for baking cakes, bread and other baked goods.

¡ Use wide, shallow cookware for bakes and gratins.

Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow cookware and it browns more on top.

¡ If you are cooking bakes directly in the universal pan, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment at level 2.

¡ The setting values for bread dough apply to both dough placed on a baking tray and dough placed in a loaf tin.

ATTENTION!

When the cooking compartment is hot, any water inside it will create steam. The change in temperature may cause damage.

▶

Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is still hot.

▶ Never place cookware containing water on the cooking compartment floor.

Shelf positions

Notes

¡ Items that are placed in the appliance on baking trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.

¡ If you opt for steam-assisted cooking, you can only cook on one level.

25.3 Roasting, braising and grilling tips

¡ The recommended settings are for fridge-temperature food and unstuffed, oven-ready poultry.

¡ Place the poultry onto the cookware breast-side or skin-side down.

¡ Turn roasting joints, grilled items or whole fish after approx. ½ to ⅔ of the specified time.

Roasting on the wire rack

Food roasted on the wire rack will become very crispy on all sides. You can roast large poultry, for example, or multiple individual pieces at the same time.

¡ Roast pieces of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succulent and juicy.

¡ Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire rack.

¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the universal pan, with the wire rack inside it, into the cooking compartment at the specified shelf height.

¡ Add up to ½ litre of water to the universal pan, depending on the size and type of food that you want to roast.

You can make a sauce from the juices that are collected. This also means that less smoke is produced and the cooking compartment does not become as dirty.

Roasting in cookware

If you cover the cookware when you cook your food, this will keep the cooking compartment cleaner.

General information about roasting in cookware

¡ Use heat-resistant, ovenproof cookware.

¡ Place the cookware on the wire rack.

¡ Glass cookware is best.

¡ Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roasting dishes.

Roasting in uncovered cookware

¡ Use a deep roasting dish.

30

¡ If you do not have any suitable cookware, you can use the universal pan.

Roasting in covered cookware

¡ Use a suitable lid that seals well.

¡ When roasting meat, there should be at least 3 cm between the food and the lid. The meat may expand.


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

▶ Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can escape away from you.

▶ Keep children away from the appliance.

Grilling

Grill food if you want it to be crispy.

ATTENTION!

Acidic food may damage the grid

▶ Do not place acidic food, such as fruit or food with an acidic marinade directly on the pan support.

¡ When grilling several food items, choose pieces that are of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succulent and juicy.

How it works en

¡ Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire rack.

¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment at least one level below the wire rack.

Notes

¡ The grill element switches on and off continuously.

This is normal. The grill setting that you use determines how frequently this occurs.

¡ Smoke may be produced when grilling.

Information for those allergic to nickel

In rare cases, small amounts of nickel may pass into the food.

25.4 Cooking frozen products

¡ Do not use heavily frosted frozen products.

¡ Remove any ice.

¡ Some frozen products may be unevenly pre-baked.

Uneven browning may remain even after baking.

25.5 Cooking ready meals

¡ Take ready meals out of the packaging.

¡ If you are warming or cooking the ready meal in cookware, make sure that the cookware is heat-resistant.

¡ It is better to defrost poultry, meat and fish in the refrigerator.

¡ Remove frozen food from its packaging before you defrost it.

¡ The recommended settings are for freezer-temperature food (-18 °C).

34

How it works en

¡ When defrosting food, use the following shelf positions:

– 1 wire rack: Shelf position 2

– 2 wire racks: Shelf positions 3 + 1

¡ Stir or turn the food 1-2 times during defrosting.

Turn large items several times. Split the food into smaller pieces as it defrosts.

Remove pieces that have already defrosted from the cooking compartment.

¡ Once the food has defrosted, switch off the appliance and leave the food in the appliance for another

10 to 30 minutes to allow the temperature to equalise.

Reheating

You can use steam-assisted reheating to gently warm up food. The food tastes and looks as though it has been freshly cooked. You can even warm and crisp up baked goods from the day before.

Tips for reheating food

¡ Use uncovered, heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for cooking with steam.

¡ Use wide, shallow cookware. Reheating takes longer if you use cold cookware.

¡ Place the cookware on the wire rack.

¡ Place food that you are not reheating in cookware

(e.g. bread rolls) directly onto the wire rack at level 2.

¡ Do not cover the food.

¡ Do not open the cooking compartment door while the food is being reheated, otherwise large amounts of steam will escape.

¡ Wipe the cooking compartment dry after using it to reheat food.
