How to avoid damage to the
appliance
•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 the enamel and discol-
ouration.
•Rough handling, especially around
the edges of the front panel, can
cause the glass to break.
•Do not store any flammable materi-
als inside the oven. These could ig-
nite when the oven is switched on.
•Do not store any moist foods inside
the oven. This could damage the
oven enamel.
•After switching off the cooling fan, do
not keep uncovered dishes in the ov-
en. Moisture may condense in the
oven interior or on the glass doors
and may get into the units.
Note on enamel coating
Changes in the colour of the oven’s
enamel coating as a result of use do not
affect the appliance’s suitability for nor-
mal and correct use. They therefore do
not constitute a defect in the sense of
the warranty law.

Shelf runner safety and anti-tip de-
vice
As a shelf runner safety device all
insertable components have a small
curved indentation at the bottom on
the right and left-hand edge.
Always insert insertable compo-
nents so that this indentation is at
the back of the oven interior. This in-
dentation is also important for pre-
venting the insertable components
from tipping.
Inserting the roasting pan:
Push the roasting pan between the
guide bars of the selected oven level.
Inserting the oven shelf:
Insert the oven shelf so that the feet
point downwards.
Push the oven shelf between the guide
bars of the selected oven level.
The high rim around the oven shelf is an
additional device to prevent cookware
from slipping.

General instructions
With Convection with ring heating
element you can also bake two cakes
at the same time in tins placed next to
each other on the shelf. 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 dif-
ference in temperature between the
freezing temperature and the tem-
perature in the oven. Once the trays
have cooled the distortion will dis-
appear again.
How to use the Baking Tables
The tables give the required tempera-
ture settings, baking times and oven
shelf levels for a selection of typical dish-
es.
•Temperatures and baking times are
for guidance only, as these will de-
pend on the consistency of pastry,
mixture or dough, the number and
the type of baking tin.
•We recommend setting the lower
temperature when baking for the first
time, and if required, e.g. if a darker
browning is desired or if the baking
time is too long, select a higher tem-
perature.
•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
tins on more than one level, baking
time can be extended by 10-15 min-
utes.
•Moist recipes (for example, pizzas,
fruit flans, etc.) are baked on one lev-
el.
•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.
•Your new oven may bake or roast dif-
ferently to your previous appliance.
So adapt your normal settings (tem-
perature, cooking times) and oven
shelf levels to the recommendations
in the following tables.
With longer baking times, you can
switch the oven off about 10 min-
utes 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.
