: Safety precautions
Read these instructions for use carefully.
Please keep the instructions for use and
installation instructions in a safe place. If the
appliance changes owners, the instructions
should always be included.
Before installation
Damage during transport
Check the appliance for damage after unpacking it. Do not
connect the appliance if it has been damaged in transit.
Electrical connection
Only a licensed expert may connect the appliance. You will lose
your warranty entitlement in the event of any damage caused
by incorrect connection.
Safety notes
This appliance is intended for domestic use only. This
appliance must only be used for food preparation.
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!
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot.
This will create hot steam.
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
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.
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.

Baking
In this section, you will find information on
■Baking on one level
■Baking on two or more levels
■The baking table
■The baking table for ready-made products
■Tips and tricks for baking
Note: Do not use shelf height 2 when baking with 3
CircoTherm®. The air circulation is impaired and this will have
a negative effect on your baking.
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.
Always slide the universal pan in carefully as far as it will go
and make sure that the sloping edge is facing the appliance
door.
Slide the flat wire racks in so that the rear upstand is at the rear.
The baking tins therefore cannot slide off the back of the shelf.

11
Baking on one level
If you are baking on one level with 3CircoTherm®, always
place a round tin in the centre (Figure A) and always place a
loaf tin diagonally (Figure B).
If you are baking on one level with 3CircoTherm, always place
two round baking tins diagonally from each other on the
stepped wire rack (Figure C).
Baking on two or more levels
When baking on several levels, only use the 3
CircoTherm® or ëBread-baking operating modes in the õ
main oven.
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.
Two baking tins on two levels
When baking with two round baking tins or two baking trays,
slide the stepped wire rack in at shelf position 1 and the
straight wire rack in at shelf position 3.
Place the lower baking tin to the left (Figure A) and the upper
baking tin to the right (Figure B) on their respective wire racks.
Four baking tins on two levels
When baking with four round baking tins, slide the stepped wire
rack in at shelf position 1 and the straight wire rack in at shelf
position 3.
Place the lower baking tins diagonally from each other as
shown in Figure C and the upper baking tins diagonally from
each other as shown in Figure D on their respective wire racks.
Baking table
The details given in the table are guidelines and apply to dark
baking tins. The values may vary depending on the type and
amount of the dough/mixture and on the baking 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.

Roasting and braising
In this section, you will find information on
■Roasting
■Braising
■Tables for roasting and braising
■Tips and tricks
: 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.
Roasting
Roasting dish without a lid is used for roasting.
When you are roasting with %Top/bottom heat, 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 position.
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 position.
Dripping fat and meat juices are caught in the universal pan.
Braising
For braising, a roasting dish with a lid is used. Ensure that the
roasting dish and lid fit together well and close properly.
First, sear the meat if required.
Add the meat, vegetables and liquid to the roasting dish in
equal proportions and place the dish with the lid closed on the
wire rack at shelf position 1.
While the meat is braising, the liquid in the roasting dish will
evaporate. Pour in more liquid if required.
Tables for roasting and braising
The details given in the table are guidelines and apply to food
placed in a cold oven and for meat taken directly from the
refrigerator.
Poultry
The information in the tables applies to unstuffed poultry. Turn
the poultry after half of the cooking time.
Lean meat
Coat lean meat with fat or oil as required and cover it with strips
of bacon.
Cooking time and temperature
The cooking time and temperature depend on the size, height,
type and quality of the food and the roasting dish.
As a general rule: the larger the item, the lower the temperature
and the longer the roasting time.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first
time. Lower temperatures will generally allow more even
browning.
The cake is too moist in the centre Set a slightly lower temperature.
Note: Higher temperatures may not mean shorter baking times (cooked on the outside,
but not on the inside).
Select a longer baking time and allow the cake mixture to prove for longer.
Add less liquid to the mixture.
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.
The specified baking time is not correct For small items, check the quantity on the baking tray. Small items must not be touch-
ing each other.
Frozen products are not browned evenly
after baking Check whether the frozen product is unevenly pre-browned before baking. This uneven browning will remain after the baking time.
Several cakes on one level are unevenly
browned Check the position of the baking tins on the wire rack.
Frozen products are not browned, not
crispy or the specified times are not cor-
rect
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.

15
The values for cooking time apply to 0.5 - 2 kg of food. For
greater weights, reduce the temperature and increase the
cooking time. For multiple pieces, apply the cooking time for
the weight of the heaviest piece.
Standing time
At the end of the cooking time, switch the oven off and leave
the roast to stand for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment with the door closed. The recommended standing
time is not included in the cooking times specified.

Tips and tricks
Grilling
In this section, you will find information on
■Grilling in general
■Circo-roasting 4
■Radiant grilling (Full-surface +and Centre-area grill ()
■The grilling table
Caution!
Material damage due to effect of heat: The temperature
generated in the cooking compartment is very high. Keep the
appliance door closed when using the grill. Never grill with the
appliance door open.
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. For items of food with rind, place them on the
wire rack rind-side down for the first half of the grilling time.
Pierce duck and goose skin under the wings and legs to allow
the fat to escape.
Depending on the type of 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 become burnt on.
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.
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). Using the Centre-area grill operating mode will save
energy.
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 position of
the wire rack.

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

■how to use the ADefrost operating mode
Defrosting with CircoTherm®
Use 3CircoTherm® to defrost and cook frozen products.
Notes
■Frozen products that have been defrosted (meat in particular)
require shorter cooking times than fresh products
■The cooking time for frozen meat increases by the defrosting
time
■Always defrost frozen poultry before cooking so that you can
remove the giblets
■Cook frozen fish at the same temperatures as fresh fish
■You can place large quantities of ready made frozen
vegetables in aluminium dishes in the cooking compartment
at the same time
■Use shelf height 1 when defrosting on one level, and shelf
heights 1 + 3 when using two levels
■Observe the instructions on the packaging when using frozen
foods.
