Information for your safety
This appliance is intended for domestic use only. This
appliance must only be used for food preparation. Only operate
the appliance in frost-free rooms.
Adults and children must not operate the appliance without
supervision,
■if they are physically or mentally incapable of doing so or
■if they have insufficient knowledge or experience.
Never let children play with the appliance.
Risk of burning!
Never touch the internal surfaces of the cooking compartment
or the heating elements when they are hot. Open the appliance
door carefully. Hot steam may escape. Small children must be
kept at a safe distance from the appliance.
Risk of fire!
Never store combustible items in the cooking compartment.
Never open the appliance door if smoke can be seen in the
appliance. Switch off the appliance. Pull out the mains plug or
disconnect the fuse in the fuse box.
Risk of short circuit!
Never trap connecting cables of electrical appliances in the hot
appliance door. The cable insulation could melt.
Risk of scalding!
The water in the water tank may become very hot if you
continue to operate the appliance. Empty the water tank after
each use of the appliance with steam operation.
Risk of scalding!
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot.
This will create hot steam.
Risk of scalding!
Hot steam may escape when the appliance door is opened.
Open the appliance door carefully during or after operating the
appliance. When opening the door, do not lean over it. Ensure
that, depending on the temperature, steam is not visible.
Risk of scalding!
Hot steam is generated in the cooking compartment. Steam is
generated in particular in the area around the steam inlet (top
right in the cooking compartment). Do not reach into the
cooking compartment while using the appliance with steam
operation. You may burn yourself.
Risk of injury and risk of fire!
Only fill the water tank with water or with the descaling solution
that is recommended by us.
Do not pour any flammable liquids (e.g. alcoholic drinks) into
the water tank.
Due to hot surfaces, vapours from flammable liquids may catch
fire in the cooking compartment (explosion). The appliance
door may spring open. Hot steam and jets of flame may
escape.
Risk of burning!
Never prepare food containing large quantities of drinks with a
high alcohol content. Alcoholic vapours can catch fire in the
cooking compartment. Only use small quantities of drinks with
a high alcohol content and take care when opening the
appliance door.
Risk of burning!
Never remove hot accessories or ovenware from the cooking
compartment without oven gloves.
Risk of electric shock!
Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried
out by one of our trained aftersales engineers. If the appliance
is defective, pull out the mains plug or switch off the appliance
at the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Call the aftersales
service.
Causes of damage
Caution!
■Do not place accessories on the cooking compartment floor.
Do not line the cooking compartment floor with foil of any
kind or greaseproof paper. Do not place ovenware on the
cooking compartment floor if a temperature of over 50 ºC is
set.This will cause heat accumulation. The baking and
roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will
be damaged.
■Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is
hot. This will create steam. The temperature change can
damage the enamel.
■Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment
for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
■When baking very moist fruit flan, do not put too much on the
baking tray. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves

4
stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper
universal pan.
■Only leave the cooking compartment to cool with the door
closed. Even if the appliance door is only slightly open, the
fronts of adjacent units may be damaged over time.
■If the oven seal is very dirty, the oven door will no longer
close properly when the oven is in use. The fronts of adjacent
units could be damaged. Always keep the oven seal clean.
■Do not stand or sit on the open oven door. Do not place
cookware or accessories on the oven door.
■Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The
door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance, and
could break.
■Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must not come
into contact with the door panel. This could cause permanent
discolouration of the door panel.
■Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Silicone baking
tins are not suitable for combined operation with steam.
■Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the
smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■Hot water can damage the pump. Only fill the water tank with
cold water.
■Do not allow descaling solution to come into contact with the
control panel or other sensitive surfaces. These will damage
the surfaces. If this does happen, remove the descaling
solution immediately with water.
■Do not clean the water tank in the dishwasher. Otherwise, the
water tank will be damaged. Clean the water tank with a soft
cloth and commercially available detergent.
Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the
operating instruction tables.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They
absorb the heat particularly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during cooking,
baking or roasting.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking
compartment is still warm. This may reduce the baking time for
the second cake.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the
residual heat to finish cooking.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance complies with European Directive
2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE). The directive gives a framework for
the collection and recycling of old appliances, which is
valid across the EU.

Baking
In this section, you will find information on
■Baking tins and trays
■Baking on two or more levels
■Baking basic doughs and cake mixtures (baking table)
■Baking pre-prepared frozen products and freshly prepared
meals (baking table)
■Tips and tricks for baking
Note: Do not use shelf height 2 when baking with 3
CircoTherm®. The air circulation would be impaired and this
will have a negative effect on your baking.
Baking in tins and on trays
Baking tins
We recommend that you use dark baking tins made from metal.
Tinplate and glass dishes increase the baking time required
and the cake will not brown evenly. If you wish to bake using
tinplate tins and %Top/bottom heat, you should use shelf
height 1.
If you are baking on one level with 3CircoTherm®, always
place a loaf tin diagonally (Fig. A) and a round tin in the centre
of the stepped wire rack (Fig. B).
Baking trays
We recommend that you only use original baking trays, as
these have been optimally designed for the cooking
compartment and the operating modes.
Always slide the baking tray or the universal pan in carefully as
far as it will go and make sure that the sloping edge is facing
the appliance door.
Use the universal pan if you are baking moist cakes, so that the
cooking compartment does not get dirty.
Baking on two or more levels
If you are baking on several levels, you should preferably use
baking trays and insert these at the same time.
Bear in mind that your items may brown at different rates on
each level. The items on the top level will brown more quickly
and can be taken out earlier.
If you wish to bake on two levels using a baking tray and a
universal pan, you should insert the baking tray at shelf
height 3 and the universal pan at shelf height 1.
Baking table for basic doughs/cake mixtures
The values in the table are guidelines and apply to enamelled
baking trays and dark baking tins. The values may vary
depending on the type and amount of dough/mixture and on
the baking tin.
The values for bread dough apply to both dough placed on a
tray and dough placed in a loaf tin.
We recommend that you set the lower of the specified
temperatures the first time. Lower temperatures will generally
allow more even browning.
If you are baking according to your own recipe, use similar
recipes in the table as a guide.
Observe the notes in the table about preheating.

Baking table for fresh meals and frozen
convenience products
Circotherm intensive 0is particularly suitable for freshly
prepared dishes that require a lot of heat from underneath and
for frozen convenience products.
Notes
■Use the universal pan for frozen products
■Line the universal pan with greaseproof paper or with special
grease absorbing paper if you are baking frozen potato
products
■Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the selected
temperature
■Spread chips out in a single layer
■Turn frozen potato products half way through the baking time
■Only season frozen potato products after they have finished
baking
■Leave a little space between bread rolls when crisping them
up. Do not place too many on a baking tray
■Do not use frozen products with freezer burn
■Do not use frozen products that are heavily frosted
■Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
■You cannot bake on more than one level with CircoTherm

The cake is too light in colour Check the shelf height.
Check whether you have used the bakeware that we have recommended.
Place your tin on the wire rack and not on the baking tray.
If the shelf height and the bakeware are correct, then you should either extend the bak-
ing time or increase the temperature.
The cake is too dark Check the shelf height.
If the shelf height is correct, you should either shorten the baking time or reduce the
temperature.
The cake is unevenly browned in the bak-
ing tin Check the shelf height.
Check the temperature.
Make sure that your baking tin is not placed directly in front of the air outlets in the rear
wall of the cooking compartment.
Check that the baking tin is in the correct position on the wire rack.
The cake on the baking tray is unevenly
browned Check the shelf height.
Check the temperature.
If you are baking on several levels, take out the baking trays at different times.
When baking small items, make sure that they are the same size and thickness.
The cake is too dry Set a slightly higher temperature and a slightly shorter baking time.
The cake is too moist in the centre Set a slightly lower temperature.
Note: Higher temperatures do not necessarily mean shorter baking times (cooked on
the outside, but not on the inside). Select a longer baking time and allow the cake mix-
ture to prove for longer. Add less liquid to the mixture.
With very moist cakes, e.g. fruit flans, a lot
of steam is generated in the cooking com-
partment which condenses on the appli-
ance door.
If you briefly and carefully open the appliance door (once or twice, or more often for
longer baking times), you can let the steam out of the cooking compartment and con-
siderably lessen the condensation.
The cake collapses when you take it out of
the oven Use less liquid for the mixture.
Set a longer baking time or a slightly lower temperature.

Roasting
In this section, you will find information on
■roasting in general
■roasting without a lid
■roasting with a lid
■roasting meat, poultry and fish (roasting table)
■tips and tricks for roasting
ã=There is a risk of injury if you use roasting dishes that
are not heat-resistant!
Only use roasting dishes that are marked as being suitable for
use in the oven.
Do not use shelf height 2 when roasting with 3CircoTherm®.
The air circulation would be impaired and this will have a
negative effect on your roast.
Open roasting
For open roasting, a roasting dish without a lid is used.
When you are roasting with %Top/bottom heat, you should
turn the roast approximately half to two thirds of the way
through the roasting time.
Roasting in the universal pan
Juices escape from the roasting meat and are collected in the
universal pan. You can use these juices as the basis for a tasty
gravy.
Deglaze the pan of the juices with hot water, stock, wine or
similar. Bring to the boil, thicken with cornflour, season and
pass through a sieve if necessary.
You can also cook side dishes (e.g. vegetables) at the same
time as roasting meat in the universal pan.
For smaller joints, you can use a smaller roasting dish instead
of the universal pan. Place this directly on the wire rack.
Roasting in the universal pan with stepped wire rack
Place the stepped wire rack on the universal pan and slide
them in together at the same shelf height.
For fatty meat and poultry, add Xto ¼ litre water to the
universal pan, depending on the size and type of the joint.
While the meat is roasting, the liquid in the roasting dish will
evaporate. Pour in more hot water if required.
Roasting in the universal pan with roasting sheet
The roasting sheet reduces dirt in the cooking compartment.
Place the roasting sheet in the universal pan and slide them in
together at the same shelf height.
Dripping fat and meat juices are caught in the universal pan.
Roasting with a lid
This method is particularly suitable for pot roasts.
Place the joint in the roasting dish. Add water, wine, vinegar or
similar for the braising liquid. Place the lid on the dish, place
the dish on the wire rack and slide it into the cooking
compartment.
While the meat is roasting, the liquid in the roasting dish will
evaporate. Pour in more hot water if required.
Roasting table
The roasting time and temperature depend on the size, height,
type and quality of the item.
As a general rule: the larger the item, the lower the temperature
and the longer the roasting time.
Coat lean meat with fat or oil as required and cover it with strips
of bacon.
The information in the table is a guideline, and relates to items
cooked without a lid. The values may vary depending on the
type and quantity of the meat and on the roasting dish.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first
time. Lower temperatures will generally allow more even
browning.
At the end of the roasting time, switch the oven off and leave
the roast to rest for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment with the door closed. The recommended rest time
is not included in the given roasting times.
The information in the table is for food placed in a cold oven
and for meat/fish taken directly from the refrigerator.
The specified baking time is not correct For small items, check the quantity on the baking tray. The items must not be touching
each other.
Frozen products are not browned evenly
after baking Check whether the frozen product is unevenly browned before baking. This uneven browning will remain after the baking time.
Frozen products are not browned, not
crispy or the specified time is not correct Remove ice from frozen products before baking. Do not use frozen products that are heavily frosted
Saving energy Only preheat the appliance when it is specified in the baking table that you should do
so.
Use dark baking tins as these absorb the heat better.
Make use of the residual heat with longer baking times and switch the oven off
510 minutes before the end of the baking time.

Low-temperature cooking
In this section, you will find information on
■Low-temperature cooking /
■Tips and tricks
Low-temperature cooking is a method of cooking slowly at low
temperatures, and is also known as slow cooking.
Low-temperature cooking is ideal for all prime cuts of meat (e.g.
tender portions of beef, veal, pork, lamb and poultry) that are to
be cooked medium/medium rare or "à point". The meat will
remain succulent and tender.
Using Low-temperature cooking
Notes
■Only use fresh, clean meat
■The meat will always look pink on the inside after Low-
temperature cooking. This does not mean that the cooking
time was too short
■Only use boned meat
■Do not use defrosted meat
■You can also use seasoned or marinated meat
■Always use shelf height 1 for Low-temperature cooking
■Do not cover the meat while it is cooking in the cooking
compartment
■Do not turn pieces of meat during the low-temperature
cooking process
■The size, thickness and type of meat will have a significant
influence on the searing and low-temperature cooking times
■The properties of the pan and the heat output of the hotplate
can influence the searing time
■Do not use the Low-temperature cooking mode together with
the Preselection mode clock function
Only switch the Low-temperature cooking mode on when the
cooking compartment has completely cooled down (room
temperature).
If •or œand üüü appear alternately in the temperature display
when the Low-temperature cooking mode is switched on, the
cooking compartment has not cooled down completely.
Wait until the cooking compartment has cooled down and
switch Low-temperature cooking on again.
1. Place a glass or porcelain plate on a wire rack and insert at
shelf height 1 to warm the plate.
2. Switch on /Low-temperature cooking.
During the heating up phase (15 - 20 minutes), üüü appears in
the temperature display.
3. Remove fat and sinews from the meat.
4. Sear the meat on all sides to seal the meat and to create a
roasted flavour.
5. When a signal sounds and ‹Ÿ appears in the text display,
place the meat on the glass or porcelain plate in the cooking
compartment.
6. Take out the meat at the end of the cooking time and switch
off the appliance.
Note: Meat cooked at a low temperature does not need to rest,
and can easily be kept warm at a low temperature.
Table for Low-temperature cooking
The information in the table contains only guide values. The
searing time is for searing in a hot pan with fat.
Place the duck breast in a cold pan and fry the skin side first.
Following Low-temperature cooking, insert at shelf height 3 and
grill at 250 °C for 3 5 minutes until crispy.
You can find information on how to proceed, further instructions
and recipes in the accompanying cookbook.

Grilling
In this section, you will find information on
■Grilling in general
■Circo-roasting 4
■Radiant grilling (Full-surface +and Centre-area grill ()
Caution!
There is a risk of damage to kitchen units if you grill with the
appliance door open: The adjacent units may be damaged by
the extreme heat. Keep the appliance door closed when using
the grill.
Notes
■Always use the wire rack and the universal pan when grilling
■Place the wire rack in the universal pan and slide them both
in at the height specified in the grilling table
■Always place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire
rack
■If you are grilling more than one piece of meat, make sure
that they are the same sort of meat and that they are of
similar thickness and weight.
Circo-roasting
The 4Circo-roasting operating mode is particularly suitable for
poultry or meat (e.g. roast pork with crackling) that is to be
crispy.
Turn large items of food after approximately half to two-thirds of
the grilling time.
Pierce duck and goose skin under the wings and legs to allow
the fat to escape.
Depending on the food you are cooking, the cooking
compartment may become very dirty when you cook food on
the wire rack using Circo-roasting. You should therefore clean
the cooking compartment after every use so that the dirt does
not burn on.
The information in the table are guidelines and apply to the
enamelled universal pan with wire rack. The values may vary
depending on the type and amount of food to be grilled.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first
time. Lower temperatures will generally allow more even
browning.
At the end of the cooking time, switch the grill off and leave the
food to stand for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment with the door closed. The recommended standing
time is not included in the grilling times specified.
The values are for food placed in a cold oven and for meat
taken directly from the refrigerator.
Radiant grilling
For grilling large quantities of flat items, use the +Full-surface
grill (Fig. A).
For grilling small quantities of flat items, use the (Centre-area
grill. Place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire rack
(Fig. B). You will save energy by using the centre-area grill.
Brush the items to be grilled with a little oil to taste.
Turn the items after half to two-thirds of the grilling time.
You can influence the grilling result by changing the type or
position of the wire rack.
