Important Information
Appliance safety
considerations
❑The appliance should only be used for
the preparation of food.
❑The surfaces of heating and cooking
appliances get hot during operation.
The interior oven walls and the heating
elements get extremely hot. Always
keep children away from the appliance.
❑Never leave the appliance unattended
when cooking with fat or oil. They can
catch fire if overheated.
❑Clean the oven regularly.
Fatty or oily remants could ignite when
the oven is switched on.
❑Make sure that the power cord does not
get caught in the hot oven door. The
plastic insulation could melt.
❑In the case of a defect, switch off (or
remove) the mains fuse in the building
electrical system.
❑Do not store combustible items in the
oven. They could ignite if the oven is
switched on accidentally.
❑Do not clean the oven with steam or
high-pressure cleaners.
❑If using hot air v, do not place
greaseproof paper loosely in the oven
(e.g. when heating the oven).
The hot-air fan could draw in the paper
which may damage the heater and fan.
❑Do not insert a baking sheet at the
bottom of the oven, or cover the base of
the oven with aluminium foil, as this
would result in heat build up. Roasting
and baking times would change, and
the enamel would be damaged.
❑Never pour water directly into the hot
oven. Damage to the enamel could
result.
❑Dripping juices may leave spots on the
oven lining. Always place a baking tray
below to prevent this from happening.
❑Never stand or sit on the open oven
door.
❑The oven door must close properly.
Keep the door seal surfaces clean.

Introducing: Your new Oven
Slide-in levels
❑Your oven features 3 slide-in levels.
The slide-in levels are counted from
bottom to top. The numbers are marked
in the oven.
 When using hot-air baking or
roasting, do not use slide-in level »2«,
in order not to block air circulation.
Note:
❑The baking tray or universal pan may
distort while the oven is operating. This
is caused by major temperature
differences on the utensil. These
differences may occur if only one part of
the utensil was covered or if deep-frozen
food, e. g. pizza, was placed on the
utensil.
Note:
The distortion will already subside again
during baking, roasting or grilling.
Accessories
Your oven comes with the following
accessories:
Universal baking pan / shelf wire shelf
Additional accessories are available from your dealer.

Circulating air grilling ˆ
For poultry and larger meat cuts.
Always gril with circulating air with
!closed oven door.
❑It is not necessary to turn the food being
grilled when you use circulating air
grilling.
Exception: Poultry must be turned once
after half at the cooking time has
expired.
1. Set Function selector to ˆ.
2. Set temperature selector between 160
and 220 depending on the type of meat
and its size.
Grilling on the grate:
❑Insert grate with meat to be grilled into
the suitable insertion level.
❑Always place universal drip pan into
the proper insertion level.
❑Dark meat – e. g. from beef, game and
mutton – browns more quickly than light
meat from veal, pork and poultry.
❑Light meat and fish fillet are often only
light brown on the surface, but done
and juicy inside.
❑Several pieces of meat can be grilled at
the same time, e. g. 2 chickens, 2
knuckles or two rolled roasts.
❑For large or several pieces of meat, the
following always applies:
lower temperature, and longer grilling
time.
Note: With circulating air grilling, the
blower is alternately switched on and off.
