]Causes of damage
Ca u s e s of damage General information
Caution!
■Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on
the cooking compartment floor: do not place
accessories on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover the cooking compartment floor with any
sort of foil or greaseproof paper. Do not place
ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a
temperature of over 50 ºC has been set. This will
cause heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting
times will no longer be correct and the enamel will
be damaged.
■Aluminium foil: Aluminium foil in the cooking
compartment must not come into contact with the
door glass. This could cause permanent
discolouration of the door glass.
■Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour
water into the cooking compartment when it is hot.
This will cause steam. The temperature change can
cause damage to the enamel.
■Moisture in the cooking compartment: Over an
extended period of time, moisture in the cooking
compartment may lead to corrosion. Allow the
cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep
moist food in the closed cooking compartment for
extended periods of time. Do not store food in the
cooking compartment.
■Cooling with the appliance door open: Following
operation at high temperatures, only allow the
cooking compartment to cool down with the door
closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door.
Even if the door is only left open a crack, the front of
nearby furniture may become damaged over time.
Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the
door open if a lot of moisture was produced whilst
the oven was operating.
■Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies,
do not pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit
juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that
cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper
universal pan.
■Extremely dirty seal: If the seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly during
operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
~"Cleaning" on page 19
■Appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not
sit on the appliance door, or place or hang anything
on it. Do not place any cookware or accessories on
the appliance door.
■Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance
model, accessories can scratch the door panel
when closing the appliance door. Always insert the
accessories into the cooking compartment as far as
they will go.
■Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the
appliance by the door handle. The door handle
cannot support the weight of the appliance and
could break.
7Environmental protection
En v i r on ment al pr ot ect i on Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient.
Here you can find tips on how to save even more
energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose
of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
■Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the
recipe or in the tables in the operating instructions.
■Leave frozen food to defrost before placing it in the
cooking compartment.
■Use baking tins that are dark-coloured, painted black
or have an enamel coating. These absorb the heat
particularly well.
■Remove any unnecessary accessories from the
cooking compartment.

Environmental protection en
7
■Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
when the appliance is in use.
■It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The cooking compartment stays warm. This reduces
the baking time for the second cake. You can place
two cake tins next to each other in the cooking
compartment.
■For longer cooking times, you can switch the
appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and use the residual heat to finish
cooking.

The fan distributes the heat from the ring heating element in the back panel evenly
around the cooking compartment.
6Hot air gentle 30-275 °C An intelligent heating type for the gentle preparation of meat, fish and pastries.
The appliance optimally controls the supply of energy to the cooking compartment.
The food is prepared in phases using residual heat. This means that it remains more
succulent and browns less. Energy can be saved, depending on the preparation and
food.
This heating function is used to determine the energy efficiency class.
$Pizza setting 30-275 °C For cooking pizza and dishes that require a lot of heat from underneath.
The bottom heating element and the ring heating element in the back panel heat up.
$Bottom heating 30-250 °C For cooking in a bain marie and for baking food for extra time.
Heat is emitted from below.
OKeep-warm 60-100 °C For keeping cooked food warm.
BDefrost 30-60 °C For gently defrosting frozen food.
;Slow cook 70-120 °C For gentle and slow cooking of seared, tender pieces of meat in ovenware without a
lid.
Heat is emitted evenly from above and below at low temperatures.
(Grill, large area Grill settings:
1 = low
2 = medium
3 = high
For grilling flat items, such as steaks or sausages, for making toast, and for browning
food.
The whole area below the grill element becomes hot.
7Circulated air grilling 30-275 °C For roasting poultry, whole fish and larger pieces of meat.
The grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately. The fan circulates the hot
air around the food.

Temperature
Use the temperature selector to set the temperature in
the cooking compartment. It can also be used to select
the grill and cleaning settings, for example.
The settings will appear on the display.
Notes
■The temperature can be set in 1 degree increments
up to 100 °C, and in 5 degree increments thereafter.
■When cooking at very high temperatures, the
appliance lowers the temperature slightly after an
extended period.
Temperature indicator
The line at the bottom of the display turns red from left
to right as the cooking compartment heats up.
When you are preheating the appliance, the optimal
time to place your food in the cooking compartment is
as soon as the entire line has turned red.
Residual heat
When the appliance is switched off, the temperature
indicator shows the residual heat in the cooking
compartment. The lower the temperature drops, the
shorter the line.
Notes
■The temperature indicator only shows the increasing
temperature for heating functions for which a
temperature is set. For grill settings, for example, the
indicator shows a full line from the beginning.
■If the temperature in the cooking compartment is too
high when the appliance is started, œwill appear on
the display for some heating functions. Switch off the
appliance and allow it to cool down before switching
it back on again.
■Due to thermal inertia, the actual temperature inside
the cooking compartment may differ slightly from the
temperature that is displayed.
Hob
Your hob comes with its own instruction manual.Please
read this carefully to ensure that you are able to use the
hob safely and correctly.
It contains important safety information, detailed set-up
instructions and plenty of information on caring for and
cleaning your hob.
Cooking compartment
Various functions in the cooking compartment make
your appliance easier to use. For example, the cooking
compartment is well lit and a cooling fan prevents the
appliance from overheating.
Opening the appliance door
If you open the appliance door when the appliance is in
operation, the appliance will continue to operate as
before.
Interior lighting
With most heating functions and other functions, the
interior lighting in the cooking compartment will remain
lit while the oven is in operation. Once the oven has
finished cooking the food, the lighting will go out.
By pressing the button for the interior lighting, you can
switch on the lighting without heating the oven. This
makes it easier to clean your appliance, for example.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan switches on and off as required. The
hot air escapes above the door.
Caution!
Do not cover the ventilation slots. Otherwise, the
appliance may overheat.
So that the cooking compartment cools down more
quickly after operation, the cooling fan continues to run
for a certain period afterwards.
