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.

Here you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for
them. We will show you which type of heating and 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.

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
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.

Measures to be noted during transport

Secure all mobile parts in and on the appliance using an
adhesive tape that can be removed without leaving any traces.
Push all accessories (e.g. baking tray) into the corresponding
slots with cardboard at the edges, in order to avoid damaging
the appliance. Place cardboard or similar between the front and
rear side to prevent knocks against the inside of the door glass.
Secure the oven door to the side walls of the appliance using
adhesive tape.
Keep the original appliance packaging. Only transport the
appliance in the original packaging. Observe the transport
arrows on the packaging.
If the original packaging is no longer available
pack the appliance in protective packaging to guarantee
sufficient protection against any transport damage.
Transport the appliance in an upright position. Do not hold the
appliance by the door handle or the connections on the rear, as
these could be damaged. Do not place any heavy objects on
the appliance.

be ready at the same time.
The tables contain a selection of dishes.
Note: Do not place food directly onto the aluminium baking
tray. Line the aluminium baking tray with greaseproof paper.
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.
