23.1 Product number (E-Nr.) and production
number (FD)
You can find the product number (E-Nr.) and the pro-
duction number (FD) on the appliance's rating plate.
You will see the rating plate with these numbers if you
open the appliance door.
Make a note of your appliance's details and the Cus-
tomer Service telephone number to find them again
quickly.
24 How it works
Here, you can find the ideal settings for various types
of food as well as the best accessories and cookware.
We have perfectly tailored these recommendations to
your appliance.
24.1 Cooking tips
Observe this information when preparing food.
¡
The temperature and cooking time depend on the
amount of food and the recipe. Settings ranges are
specified for this reason. Try using the lower values
to start with.
¡
The setting values apply to food placed in the cook-
ing compartment while the cooking compartment is
still cold. Do not slide the accessory into the cook-
ing compartment until it has finished preheating.
¡
Remove any accessories that are not being used
from the cooking compartment.

Notes
¡
When baking on several layers, always use hot air.
Baked goods that are placed in the oven at the
same time will not necessarily be ready at the same
time.
¡
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.
¡
For best results, we recommend using dark-col-
oured metal bakeware.
24.3 Notes on roasting and grilling
The setting values are based on the assumption that
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry, meat or fish is
placed into a cold cooking compartment.
¡
The larger the poultry, meat or fish, the lower the
cooking temperature and the longer the cooking
time.
¡
Turn the poultry, meat or fish after approx. 1/2 to
2/3 of the time listed.
¡
Add a little liquid to the poultry in the cookware.
Cover the bottom of the cookware with approx. 1–
2 cm of liquid.
¡
When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side
or skin side is underneath to begin with.
¡
Cooking time calculation (e.g. 20 + 35): To calculate
the cooking time, assume 20 minutes per 500 g of
meat plus an extra 35 minutes. For 1.5 kg, the
cooking time is then 95 minutes.
¡
Cooking time range (e.g. 10–15): Your food will be
ready within the specified range of time.
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
caught. This also means that less smoke is pro-
duced and the cooking compartment becomes less
dirty.
¡
Keep the appliance door closed when using the
grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
¡
Place the food to be grilled on the wire rack. In ad-
dition, slide the universal pan in at least one shelf
position lower, with the slanted edge facing the ap-
pliance door. This means that any dripping fat is
caught.
Roasting in cookware
When preparing food in cookware with a lid, the cook-
ing compartment remains cleaner.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roasting
dishes. Glass cookware is best.
Cookware without lid
¡
Use a deep roasting dish.
¡
Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
¡
If you do not have any suitable cookware, use the
universal pan.
