Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting in the oven and when cooking on the hob, and how to
dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy with your oven
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
■
cooking, baking or roasting.
It is best to bake more than one cake, 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.
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.

technician in the event of a malfunction, even during the
warranty period.
After-sales contact details for all countries can be found in the
attached after-sales service directory.
Saving energy with the gas hob
Always use a saucepan which is the correct size for your
■
food. A larger, less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
Always place a suitable lid on the saucepan.
■
The gas flame must always be in contact with the base of the
■
saucepan.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used

of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

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.
