The switch will turn off the oven heating and the fan when door
is opened during oven operation; when the door is closed again,
the heating is resumed.
The appliance features a built-in cooling fan which cools the
appliance housing and control panel.
After the oven is switched off, the cooling fan continues to operate
for a while in order to additionally cool down the appliance.

• 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 off. This way, you
will save some power and make use of the accumulated heat.
• Each time the appliance is connected to the power mains,
“12.00” will flash on the display.

The oven can be operated in two ways:
A Cooking by selecting the operation mode (K)
Use this type of operation when you wish to prepare any type
and quantity of food. With this mode, you will select the heating
system, oven temperature, and cooking duration.
Operation mode can also be set in two ways:
• By pressing the (K) key consecutively until the desired setting
is selected.
• You may also touch the (K) key twice; the display will start
flashing, and now the (H) keys “+, -” can be used to select the
operation mode. This selection mode enables cycling through
the available options in both directions, which is not possible if
only the (K) key is used.
The oven may operate in the following modes
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.
Preset temperature 200°C.
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
effect 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.
Preset temperature 240°C.
Oven operation
9

243912
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.
Preset temperature 240°C.
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.
Preset temperature 170°C.
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.
Preset temperature 200°C.
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.
Preset temperature 160°C.
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.
10

243912
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.
Preset temperature 160°C.
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).
The lower heater can be used for cleaning the oven. Details are
given in the “Cleaning and maintenance” section.
Upper heater
The heat is radiated only by the heater installed in the upper wall
of the oven. Use this operation mode only when the upper side
of the dish should be cooker more thoroughly (e.g. for additional
browning).
Preset temperature 150°C.
Selecting / setting the oven temperature
• After selecting thy type of food or oven operation mode, the
preset temperature can be adjusted.
- Touch the (I) key, which will start to flash.
- Use the (H) “+, -” keys to set the oven temperature in the
interval from 30 to 275°C, depending on the oven operation
mode, in 5°C steps.
- Confirm the setting by touching the (I) key again; if the (I)
key is not pressed, the setting will be adopted automatically
after a few seconds.
• You may also set the cooking duration, end of cooking time, or
delayed cooking start (see section “Timer functions”).
• When all desired parameters have been set, press the (C)
“Start/stop” key to activate the oven.
• The temperature display (I) will indicate the rising temperature
in the oven. When the preset temperature is reached, a beep
will sound and the symbol (I1) will go off.

• 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.
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 easy-clean inserts prevent the fat from spattering directly on
the oven wall.
The easy-clean inserts are installed as follows:
• Remove the wire or telescopic guides (see the section
Removing the telescopic and wire guides).
• Attach the guides (wire or telescopic) to the easy-clean shield
(A). Then, hang them together by sliding the two prongs into
the provided hole and pulling the assembly downward.
When installing telescopic retractable guides (which can be
pulled out completely) and the easy-clean inserts, insert the
supplied clips into the lower openings on the oven interior walls,
and insert the guides into these clips. The clips are intended for
securing the guides.
The glass tray is intended for baking dishes, but may also be
used as a serving tray.
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.
