OVEN EQUIPMENT AND ACCESSORIES (depending on the model)
GLASS BAKING DISH is used for cooking
with all oven systems. It can also be used as
a serving tray.
The GRID is used for grilling or as support
for a pan, baking tray or baking dish with
the food.
There is a safety latch on the grid.
Therefore, lift the grid slightly at the front
when pulling it out from the oven.

9
784868
The SHALLOW BAKING SHEET is used for
baking pastry and cakes.
The DEEP BAKING TRAY is used for roasting
meat and baking moist pastry. It can also be
used as a drip tray.
Never place the deep baking tray in the
first guide during the cooking process, except
when grilling food or using the roasting spit
and you are only using the deep tray as a drip
tray.
As baking accessories heat up, their
form may change. This does not affect
their functionality and their original form
will be restored when they cool down.
The grid or the tray should always be
inserted into the groove between the two
wire profiles.
With telescopic extendable guides, first pull
out the guides of one level and place the
grid or the baking tray onto them. Then,
push them in with your hand as far as they

The appliance and some of the accessible parts tend to heat up
during cooking. Use oven mitts.
CATALYTIC INSERTS prevent the spraying
fat from accumulating on the sides of the
oven cavity.
1 WHAT IS CATALYSIS?
Catalytic cleaning is a chemical process
in which catalysts completely break
down the grease particles during food
preparation. In case of normal use, the
service life of the catalytic inserts is equal
to the service life of the appliance. If the
inserts are worn out sooner, replacements
are available at service centres.
2 HOW TO CLEAN THE CATALYTIC
INSERTS?
Catalytic inserts are cleaned automatically
at temperatures of 85 °C or higher. In
case of minor stains, they can be easily
removed and cleaned with water and
a soft cloth. Do not use aggressive
cleaners and do not wash the inserts in
the dishwasher. Streaks on the catalytic
inserts do not affect their effectiveness.
