¡ The setting values apply to food placed in the cook-
ing compartment while the cooking compartment is
still cold. You can cut your energy use by up to
20%.
It is not usually necessary to preheat the appliance.
If you would like to preheat the oven anyway, you
can reduce the indicated baking times by a few
minutes.
Preheating is required for some types of food. Do
not place accessories into the cooking compart-
ment until it has finished preheating.
¡ Remove any accessories that are not being used
from the cooking compartment. This allows you to
achieve optimal cooking results and save up to 20%
in energy.
¡ Hot air gentle is an intelligent type of heating that al-
lows you to gently cook meat, fish and baked items.
The appliance optimally controls the supply of en-
ergy to the cooking compartment. The food is
cooked in phases using residual heat. This means
that the food remains more succulent and browns
less. Depending on the preparation and food, you
can save energy. If you preheat the appliance or
open the appliance door before the food has fin-
ished cooking, you may not be able to achieve this
result.
The hot air gentle type of heating is used to meas-
ure both the energy consumption in circulating-air
mode and the energy efficiency class.
¡ Only use original accessories.
The original accessory has been tailored to the
cooking compartment and the types of heating.
Ensure that the accessory slides in the right way
round.
Condensation
This section tells you how condensation is formed, how
you can prevent damage, and how you can prevent
condensation from forming.
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-effi-
cient, only a small amount of heat escapes during op-
eration. Due to the significant differences in temperat-
ure between the appliance interior and the external
parts of the appliance, condensation may build up on
the appliance door, the control panel or the front pan-
els of adjacent kitchen cabinets. The formation of con-
densation is a normal physical phenomenon.
In order to prevent damage, wipe away the condensa-
tion.
When you preheat the appliance, you reduce the build-
up of condensation.
Greaseproof paper
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the se-
lected temperature. Always cut the greaseproof paper
to size.
WARNING ‒ Risk of fire!
Opening the appliance door creates a draught.
Greaseproof paper may come into contact with the
heating element and catch fire.
Never place greaseproof paper loosely over ac-
▶
cessories when preheating the appliance and while
cooking.
Always cut greaseproof paper to size and use a
▶
plate or baking tin to hold it down.
Notes on baking
When baking, use the shelf positions indicated.
Baking on one level
Rising pasta/baked goods or tin on the
wire rack
Flat pasta/baked items or in the baking
tray
Baking on two or more levels
Universal pan
Baking tray
Baking tins on the wire rack:
First wire rack
Second wire rack
Baking on three levels
Baking trays
Universal pan
Baking trays
Notes
¡ When baking on several layers, use hot air. Different
food that is placed in the oven at the same time will
not necessarily be ready at the same time.
In such cases, you can remove the cooked food
and continue to cook the other baking tray. If neces-
sary, you can change the position and direction of
the baking trays.
¡ Position baking tins/dishes either next to one an-
other or offset on different shelves so that they are
not directly one above the other in the cooking com-
partment. You can cut energy use by cooking differ-
ent items at the same time.
¡ For best results, we recommend using dark-col-
oured metal baking tins.
Roasting and grilling on the wire rack
Roasting on the wire rack works particularly well for
large poultry or for multiple pieces at the same time.
¡ Depending on the size and type of the food to be
roasted, add up to 1/2 litre water to the universal
pan.
You can make a sauce from the juices that are col-
lected. This also means that less smoke is pro-
duced and the cooking compartment does not be-
come as dirty.
¡ Keep the appliance door closed when using the
grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
