Use genuine accessories for your appliance. These
have been tailored to the cooking compartment and

double the time for double the amount.
The setting values apply to food placed in the cook-
ing compartment while the cooking compartment is
still cold.
Preheating is necessary for selected types of food –

to start with. You can increase the temperature next
time if necessary.

20.2 General cooking tips
Take note of the following information when cooking all
types of food.
Condensation
When you are cooking food in the cooking compart-
ment, a lot of steam may form in the cooking compart-
ment.
Since your appliance is extremely energy-efficient, only
a small amount of heat escapes during operation. Due
to the significant differences in temperature between
the appliance interior and the external parts of the ap-
pliance, condensation may build up on the appliance
door, the control panel or the front panels of adjacent
kitchen units. The formation of condensation is a nor-
mal physical phenomenon.
When you preheat the appliance or open the door
carefully, you reduce the build-up of condensation.
