Here, you can find a selection of dishes and the ideal
settings for them. We will show you which type of
heating and temperature are best suited to your dish.
You will get information on suitable cooking
accessories and the height at which they should be
placed in the oven. You will also get tips about
cookware and preparation methods.
Note:
A lot of steam can build up in the cooking
compartment when cooking food.
Your appliance is very energy-efficient and radiates very
little heat to its surroundings during operation. Due to
the significant differences in temperature between the
appliance interior and the external parts of the
appliance, condensation may build up on the door, the
control panel or the front panels of adjacent kitchen
cabinets. This is a normal physical phenomenon.
Condensation can be reduced by preheating the oven
or opening the door carefully.
General information
Recommended setting values
The table lists the optimal heating function for various
types of food. The temperature and cooking time
depend on the amount of food and the recipe.For this
reason, the table specifies setting ranges. Try using the
lower value to start with. A lower temperature will result
in more even browning. You can increase the
temperature next time if necessary.
Note:
Cooking times cannot be reduced by using
higher temperatures. The food would only be cooked
on the outside, but would not be fully cooked in the
middle.
The setting values apply to food placed in the cooking
compartment while the cooking compartment is still
cold. This will save energy.If you preheat the oven, you
can reduce the indicated baking times by several
minutes.
Preheating is necessary for selected types of food –
this is indicated in the table. Do not place your food and
accessory into the cooking compartment until it has
finished preheating.
If you wish to follow one of your own recipes, you
should use the settings listed in the table for similar
food as reference. Additional information can be found
in the baking tips listed after the settings tables.
Remove any accessories that are not being used from
the cooking compartment. This will allow you to achieve
optimal cooking results while saving energy.
Gentle hot air heating function
If you wish to use the gentle hot air heating function,
make sure that the cooking compartment is cold and
empty before you place your food inside. Always keep
the appliance door closed when cooking. Only cook on
one level when using this function.
Baking on one level
When baking on one level, use the following shelf
positions:
■
Position 2 – tall baked items and tins/dishes on the
wire rack
■
Position 3 – shallow baked items and baking trays
Baking on two or more levels
Use the hot air heating function. Items that are placed in
the oven on baking trays or in baking tins/dishes at the
same time will not necessarily be ready at the same
time.
Baking on two levels:
■
Universal pan, position 3
Baking tray, position 1
■
Baking tins/dishes on the wire rack
First wire rack, position 3
Second wire rack, position 1
Baking on three levels:
■
Baking tray, position 5
Universal pan, position 3
Baking tray, position 1
You can cut energy use by cooking different items at
the same time. Position baking tins/dishes either next to
one another or offset on different shelves so that they
are not directly one above the other in the cooking
compartment.
Accessories
Only use original accessories supplied with your
appliance. These have been tailored to the cooking
compartment and the operating modes of your
appliance.
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Greaseproof paper
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the
selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof paper to
size.
Cakes and pastries
Your appliance offers you a range of heating types for
the preparation of cakes and small baked items. You
can find the ideal settings for many dishes in the
settings tables.
Also refer to the notes in the section on allowing dough
to rise.
