Cooking compartment
The oven light is located in the cooking compartment. A cooling
fan protects the oven from overheating.
Oven light
During operation, the oven light in the cooking compartment is
on. The \setting on the function selector can be used to
switch on the light without heating the oven.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan switches on and off as required. The hot air
escapes above the door. Caution: do not cover the ventilation
slots. Otherwise the oven will overheat.
So that the cooking compartment cools down more quickly
after operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a certain
period afterwards.
Your accessories
The accessories supplied with your appliance are suitable for
making many meals. Ensure that you always insert the
accessories into the cooking compartment the right way round.
There is also a selection of optional accessories, with which
you can improve on some of your favourite dishes, or simply to
make working with your oven more convenient.
Inserting accessories
You can insert the accessories into the cooking compartment
at 3 different levels. Always insert them as far as they will go so
that the accessories do not touch the door panel.
The accessories can be pulled out approximately halfway until
they lock in place. This allows meals to be removed easily.
When sliding the accessories into the cooking compartment,
ensure that the kink in the side rail is at the back. Only then will
they lock in place.
When working with :3D hot air, do not use shelf position 2,
as this will adversely affect air circulation.
Note: The accessories may become deformed when they
become hot. Once they cool down again, they regain their
original shape. This does not affect their function.
You can buy accessories from the after-sales service, from
specialist retailers or online. Please specify the HZ number.

Care and cleaning
With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and
fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain
how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.
Notes
■Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
■Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
■Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Cleaning agents
To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong type of cleaning agent, observe the information in the
table. Do not use
■harsh or abrasive cleaning agents,
■cleaning agents with a high concentration of alcohol,
■hard scouring pads or sponges,
■high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.

Cleaning the self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking
compartment
The back wall in the cooking compartment is coated with a
highly porous ceramic layer. This coating absorbs and
disintegrates splashes from baking and roasting while the oven
is in operation. The higher the temperature and the longer the
oven is in operation, the better the result will be.
If splashes are still visible even after repeated use, proceed as
follows:
1. Clean the floor, ceiling and side panels of the cooking
compartment thoroughly.
2. Set :3D hot air.
3. With the door closed, heat up the empty oven for
approximately 2 hours at maximum temperature.
The ceramic coating is regenerated. When the cooking
compartment has cooled down, remove the brown or white
residue with water and a soft sponge.
Light discolouration of the coating does not affect automatic
self-cleaning.
Caution!
■Never use abrasive cleaning agents. You will scratch or
destroy the highly porous coating.
■Never treat the ceramic coating with oven cleaner. If oven
cleaner accidentally gets onto it, remove it immediately with a
sponge and plenty of water.
Cleaning the cooking compartment floor, ceiling and side
walls
Use a dish cloth and hot soapy water or a vinegar solution.
If there are heavy deposits of dirt, use a stainless steel scouring
pad or oven cleaner. Only use when the cooking compartment
is cold. Never treat the self-cleaning surfaces with a scouring
pad or oven cleaner.
Cleaning the hook-in racks
You can remove the hook-in racks for easier cleaning.
: Risk of burning due to hot components in the cooking
compartment!
Wait until the cooking compartment has cooled down.
1. Push the hook-in rack upwards at the front and unhook to the
side.
2. Pull the hook-in rack forwards at the rear and unhook to the
side.
3. Clean the hook-in rack with washing-up liquid and a sponge
or brush.
4. Align the hook-in rack with the kink (a) facing upwards, so
that the shelf positions match.
5. Insert the hook-in rack at the rear as far as it will go.
6. Push the hook-in rack towards the rear.
7. Insert the hook-in rack at the front as far as it will go.
8. Push the hook-in rack downwards.
Folding down the grill element
You can fold down the grill element to clean the ceiling.
: Risk of burns!
The oven must be cold.
1. Hold the grill element and pull the handle forwards until it
clicks audibly in place (figure A).
2. Fold the grill element downwards (figure B).
3. After cleaning, fold the grill element back up and hold it.
4. Pull the handle downwards until it clicks audibly into place.

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 oven door as infrequently as possible while you are
cooking, baking or roasting.
■It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The oven
is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second
cake. You can also place two loaf tins next to each other.
■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.
Tested for you in our cooking studio
Here you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for
them. We will show you which type of heating and which
temperature are best suited for your dish. You can find
information about suitable accessories and the height at which
they should be inserted. There are also tips about cookware
and preparation methods.
Notes
■The values in the table always apply to dishes placed into the
cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.
Only preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you
should do so. Do not line the accessories with greaseproof
paper until after they have been preheated.
■The times specified in the tables are guidelines only. They will
depend on the quality and composition of the food.
■Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be
obtained as special accessories from specialist retailers or
from the after-sales service.
Before using the oven, remove any unnecessary accessories
and ovenware from the cooking compartment.
■Always use oven gloves when taking hot accessories or
ovenware out of the cooking compartment.
Cakes and pastries
Baking on one level
When baking cakes, the best results can be achieved using %
Top/bottom heating. When baking with :3D hot air, note the
following: Bake cakes in tins and on a tray at shelf height 1.
Baking on two or more levels
Use :3D hot air.
Baking on 2 levels:
■Baking tray in shelf position 3
■Universal pan in shelf position 1
Baking trays that are placed in the oven at the same time will
not necessarily be ready at the same time.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical
and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline
determines the framework for the return and recycling
of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

16
Baking tins
It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins. Baking times
are increased when light-coloured baking tins made of thin
metal or glass dishes are used, and cakes do not brown so
evenly.
If you wish to use silicone baking tins, use the information and
recipes provided by the manufacturer as a guide. Silicone
baking tins are often smaller than normal tins. The amount of
mixture and recipe instructions may differ.
Tables
The tables show the ideal type of heating for the various cakes
and pastries. The temperature and baking time depend on the
amount and consistency of the mixture. This is why temperature
ranges are given in the tables. You should try the lower
temperature first, since a lower temperature allows more even
browning. You can increase the temperature next time if
necessary.
Preheating the oven shortens the baking time by 5 to
10 minutes.
More information can be found in the “Baking tips” section
which follows the tables.

You wish to bake according to your own
recipe.
Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
How to establish whether sponge cake
is baked through.
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, stick
a cocktail stick into the cake at the highest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean,
the cake is ready.
The cake collapses. Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the
specified mixing times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the middle but is
lower around the edge.
Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake care-
fully with a knife.
The cake goes too dark on top. Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little
longer.
The cake is too dry. When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit
juice or an alcoholic beverage over it. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher
and reduce the baking time.
The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake)
looks good, but is soggy on the inside
(sticky, streaked with water).
Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature. For
cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs
and then place the topping on top. Please follow the recipe and baking times.
The cake is unevenly browned. Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more evenly. Bake
delicate pastries on one level using %Top/bottom heating. Protruding greaseproof
paper can affect the air circulation. For this reason, always cut greaseproof paper to fit
the baking tray.
The bottom of a fruit cake is too light. Place the cake one level lower the next time.

Meat, poultry, fish
Ovenware
You may use any heatresistant ovenware. The universal pan is
suitable for large roasts.
Glass ovenware is the most suitable. Ensure that the lid of the
roasting dish fits well and closes properly.
Add a little more liquid when using enamelled roasting dishes.
With roasting dishes made of stainless steel, browning is not so
intense and the meat may be somewhat less well cooked.
Increase the cooking times.
Information in the tables:
Ovenware without a lid = open
Ovenware with a lid = closed
Always place the ovenware in the centre of the wire rack.
Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking. The glass
could crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
Roasting
Add in a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. ½ cm of liquid.
Add liquid generously for pot roasts. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. 1 - 2 cm of liquid.
The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat and the
material the ovenware is made of. If preparing meat in an
enamelled roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if
cooked in glass ovenware.
Roasting dishes made from stainless steel are not ideal. The
meat cooks more slowly and browns less fully. Use a higher
temperature and/or a longer cooking time.
Grilling
When grilling, preheat the oven for approx. 3 minutes, before
placing the food into the cooking compartment.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be
of equal thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and
remain succulent and juicy.
Turn the food you are grilling after Zof the time.
Do not add salt to steaks until they have been grilled.
Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack. If you are
grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by placing
it in the centre of the wire rack.
The universal pan should also be inserted at level 1. The meat
juices are collected in the pan and the oven is kept cleaner.
When grilling, do not insert the baking tray or universal pan at
level 4 or 5. The high heat distorts it and the cooking
compartment can be damaged when removing it.
The grill element switches on and off continually. This is normal.
The grill setting determines how frequently this will happen.
Meat
Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.
When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for
an additional 10 minutes. This allows better distribution of the
meat juices.
After cooking, wrap sirloin in aluminium foil and leave it to rest
for 10 minutes in the oven.
For roast pork with a rind, score the rind in a crossways pattern,
then lay the roast in the dish with the rind at the bottom.
The fruit juice overflows. Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one.
Small baked items made out of yeast
dough stick to one another when bak-
ing.
There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for
the baked items to expand well and turn brown on all sides.
You were baking on several levels. The
items on the top baking tray are darker
than that on the bottom baking tray.
Always use :3D hot air to bake on more than one level. Baking trays that are placed in
the oven at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
Condensation forms when you bake
moist cakes.
Baking may result in the formation of water vapour, which escapes above the door. The
steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adja-
cent units. This is a natural process.

Turn roasts, such as rolled turkey joint or turkey breast, halfway
through the cooking time. Turn poultry portions after Zof the
time.
For duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of the
wings. This allows the fat to run out.

oven in its swimming position with its dorsal fin facing upwards.
Placing a scored potato or a small oven-proof container in the
stomach cavity of the fish will provide stability.
For fish fillets, add a few tablespoons of liquid to braise.
Tips for roasting and grilling
Slow cooking
Slow cooking, also known as low-temperature cooking, is the
ideal method for cooking tender pieces of meat medium rare or
medium. The meat remains very juicy and turns out as soft as
butter. The benefit of this cooking method is that it allows lots of
scope for menu planning because slow-cooked meat is easy to
keep warm.
Suitable cookware
Use a flat dish, e.g. a porcelain serving plate or a glass roasting
dish without a lid.
Always place the open dish on the wire rack at level 1.
Method
1. Select %Top/bottom heating and set a temperature between
70-90 °C. Preheat the oven and warm up the dish at the
same time.
2. Place a little fat in a pan on a high heat. Sear the meat on all
sides, including the ends, and then place immediately into
the preheated dish.
3. Place the dish with the meat in it back into the oven and slow
cook. A slow-cook temperature of 80 °C is ideal for most
pieces of meat.
Notes
■Only use fresh, good-quality meat Carefully remove sinews
and fat. Fat develops a strong, distinct taste of its own during
slow cooking.
■Sear the meat over a very high heat and for a sufficiently long
time on all sides, including the ends.
■Larger pieces of meat do not need to be turned.
■Meat can be carved immediately following slow cooking. No
standing time is required.
■Due to the special cooking method, the meat looks pink, i.e.
medium rare. This does not mean, however, that it is raw or
not well done enough.
■If you would like gravy with your meat, cook using ovenware
with a lid. Please take note that the cooking times will be
reduced.
■In order to check whether the meat is cooked, use a meat
thermometer. A core temperature of 60 °C must be
maintained for at least 30 minutes.
Table
Any tender cut of poultry, beef, veal, pork and lamb is suited to
slow cooking. The slow cooking times depend on the thickness
and the inside temperature of the meat.

How to tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”.
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling
is partly burnt.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are
burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are
too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through
the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the cooler switch panel or on
the fronts of adjacent units.
