• Remove all accessories from the oven and clean them with
warm water and a conventional detergent. Do not use
abrasive cleaning aids.
• When the oven is heated up for the first time, a specific
odor of a “new appliance” will be discharged; therefore,
ventilate the room thoroughly while the oven heats up.
• Use dark, black silicon coated or enamel coated baking
trays, as these transmit the heat particularly well.
• Only preheat the oven if specifically stated in the recipe or
in the instruction tables herein.
• Heating up an empty oven uses a lot of energy; therefore,
a lot of power is saved if several types of pastry are cooked
consecutively, as the oven is already heated up.
• Approximately ten minutes before the anticipated end
of the cooking process, the oven may be turned o.
This way, you will save some power and make use of the
accumulated heat.
• Note: When cooking is completed, the cooling fan will
stop operating. If you leave the dish in the oven, steam
could evaporate from it and condense on the front panel
and the oven door. In order to prevent condensation, set
the program selector switch to the »light« position. Thus,
the cooling fan will continue to operate and cool the oven,
preventing the accumulation of condensate.

Oven lighting
With some models, there are two interior lighting lamps:
one on the upper part of the back wall, and the other,
additional lamp on middle of the right side wall. Oven
lighting can be selected independently, without selecting
another function. With all other modes of operation,
the oven lighting is turned on automatically when the
operation mode is selected.
Upper / lower heater
The heaters on the upper and lower side of the oven
radiate heat uniformly and evenly into the oven interior.
Pastry and meat can be cooked on one shelf level only.
Large grill
With this operation mode, the upper heater and the infra
heater are activated simultaneously. The infra heater
installed on the oven interior ceiling radiates heat directly.
To boost the heating eect or to make optimal use of
the entire area of the oven grid, the upper heater is also
activated. This operation mode is appropriate for cooking
smaller chunks of meat, such as steaks, roasts, chops, ribs,
etc.
Grill
Only the infra heater is activated (which also operates,
along with the upper heater, in the Large grill mode).
This mode is appropriate for grilling smaller quantities of
toasted sandwiches, grill sausages, or simply for toasting
bread.
Grill & fan
With this operation mode, the infra heater and the fan are
activated simultaneously. It is appropriate for grilling meat
and large chunks of meat or poultry on one shelf level.
Also appropriate for cooking food au gratin or browning.
The oven may be
operated in the
following modes
14

425514
Hot air and lower heater
With this operation mode, the lower heater and the hot air
fan operate simultaneously. This is particularly convenient
for making pizza. Also ideal for moist or heavy pastry,
fruit cakes made of leavened dough, short pastry, or
cheesecakes.
Hot air
With this operation mode, the round heater and the fan
operate simultaneously. The fan at the oven back wall
causes the hot air to circulate constantly around a roast
of pastry. This operation mode is appropriate for roasting
meat and making pastry on several shelves simultaneously.
Cooking temperature should be set lower than with
conventional operation modes.
Defrosting
With this mode, the air is circulating without any heater
being turned on. Only the fan is in operation. This is used
for slow defrosting or thawing of frozen food.
Lower heater and fan
With this operation mode, the lower heater and the fan
operate simultaneously. Used for baking low leavened
dough and preserving fruit and vegetables. Use the first
shelf position from the bottom and shallow rather than
deep baking trays to allow the warm air circulate around
the upper side of the dish as well.
Upper and lower heater plus the fan
The upper and the lower heater operate simultaneously. The
fan enables uniform circulation of hot air in the oven. The
system is suitable for making all kinds of pastry, for defrosting
food, and drying fruit and vegetables. Before placing food
into the preheated oven, wait for the signal lamp (heater
operation lamp) to go o for the first time. For best results,
cook on a single shelf level only; with cooking on two levels
simultaneously, the results are somewhat inferior. The oven
must be preheated. Use the second and fourth shelf level
(from the bottom). The temperature should be set lower than
with conventional heating combinations.
15

425514
Lower heater / Aqua Clean
The heat is only radiated by the heater installed in the
bottom of the oven. Select this operation mode when
you wish to bake / cook the bottom side of the dish more
thoroughly (e.g. for moist pastry with fruit filling). Set
the temperature with the temperature selection knob /
dial. The lower heater can be used for cleaning the oven.
Details are given in the “Cleaning and maintenance”
section.
• Accessories (grid, shallow and deep baking tray) can be
inserted into the oven at four levels.
• Please note that the shelf levels are always referred
to by consecutive numbers starting from the bottom
(particular shelf levels are described in the cooking
tables below)
• The guides may be drawn, wire, or telescopic
(depending on the appliance model). Telescopic (pull-
out or, retractable) guides are installed for the second,
third, and fourth level. In case of wire guides, the grid
and the trays should always be inserted into the leading
slot formed by adjacent wire profiles.
Shelf levels (depending
on the model)
16

425514
Telescopic (pull-out or, retractable) guides are installed
for the second, third, and fourth level. They are installed
on the left and right side wall of the oven interior at three
levels.
Pull-out levels consist of (depending on the model):
- three guides that can be pulled out partially,
- one guide that can be pulled out completely and two
that can be pulled out partially, or
- three guides that can be pulled out completely.
Telescopic pull-out guides and other parts of oven
accessories will heat up! Use a kitchen glove or
similar protection when handling them.
• To insert the grid, baking tray, or drip tray, first pull out
the telescopic guides of the desired level.
• Place the grid or the shallow or deep baking tray on the
pull-out guides and push it into the oven with your hand.
Close the oven door only when the telescopic guides
have been fully retracted.
The grid onto which the container with food, or the food
directly, is placed.
A safety stop is fitted on the grid and on the
guides. To pull out the grid, lift it slightly when it
hits the stop.
Shallow baking tray is only intended for baking pastry and
cakes.
Deep baking tray is intended for baking meat and moist
pastry; it is also intended as a drip tray.
Unless you are using the grill, or the deep baking
tray is used only as a drip tray when spit-roasting,
the deep tray should not be inserted into the first
guide.

• For baking pastry, use the , or . mode of
operation. (Oven operation with the selected mode, or
system, depends on the appliance model).
• When baking pastry, always remove the fat filter.
Instructions
• When baking pastry, always observe the instructions on
the shelf / guide level, temperature, and cooking time
indicated in the pastry baking table. Do not be prejudiced
by experience you may have with other ovens. The values
indicated in the cooking table are defined and checked
especially for this particular oven.
• If the baking table does not specifically address a
particular type of pastry, see the information for a
similar type of pastry.
Baking pastry with upper and lower heater
• Bake the pastry at one level only.
• Upper / lower heater combination is particularly
appropriate for baking various types of pastry, bread,
and meat.
• Use dark-colored baking trays. Light-colored trays
reflect the heat, which leads to poorer cooking
(browning) results. Always place the models on the grid.
If you are using the supplied baking tray, remove the
grid.
• Preheating will shorten the cooking time. Place the
dish into the oven only when the selected temperature
has been reached, i.e. when the control lamp (heater
operation lamp) goes o for the first time.
Baking pastry with hot air
Baking pastry with hot air is particularly convenient
when you wish to bake on several shelf / guide levels
simultaneously, especially when preparing bite-size pastry
in shallow trays. Preheating is recommended, and the
use of the second and third guide level. This mode is also
appropriate for moist pastry and fruit cakes (in this case,
bake on a single level only).
• The temperature is normally set lower than when baking
with the upper/lower heater combination (see also the
pastry baking table).
• Various types of pastry can be baked simultaneously, if
the required temperature is at least approximately the
same for all.
• Baking time can vary, even for equal baking trays. When
Baking pastry

baking in several baking trays simultaneously – on two
or even three levels, baking time for each tray can e
dierent. You may have to remove one of the trays
sooner (normally, this would be the uppermost tray.
• If possible, prepare bite-size pastry, such as cupcakes,
in the same thickness and height. Unevenly sized pastry
will be unevenly browned!
• When baking several types of pastry simultaneously,
there will be a significant amount of vapor in the oven,
resulting in accumulation of condensate on the oven
door.
Tips on baking pastry
Is the pastry completely done?
Use a wooden stick to pierce the pastry at the highest
point. If there are no traces of dough when the stick is
removed, the pastry is done. Turn o the oven and use the
remaining accumulated heat.
The pastry has collapsed
Check the recipe. Next time, use less liquid. Observe the
instructions on mixing / kneading time, especially when
using small household appliances.
The pastry is too light-colored
Next time, use a dark-colored baking tray, place the tray
one guide level lower, or turn on the lower heater towards
the end of the cooking process.
The pastry with a moist filling (e.g. cheesecake) is not
completely done
Next time, reduce the temperature and extend the cooking
time.
Notes on the pastry baking table:
• Two values are indicated for temperature, lower and
upper. Initially, set the lower temperature; if the pastry is
not brown enough, increase the temperature next time.
• Cooking times are given as an estimate and may vary
subject to a number of circumstances.
• The value printed in bold in the temperature table
indicates the most appropriate operating mode for a
particular type of pastry.
• The indication * means that the oven should be
preheated with the corresponding operating mode
selected.
• When using baking paper, make sure it is resistant to
high temperature.
