Instructions for automatic
programmes
Place the food in the cold oven.
Take the food out of its packaging and weigh it. If it is
not possible to enter the exact weight, you should round
it up or down.
When cooking with the automatic programmes, always
use microwave-safe, heat-resistant ovenware such as
glass or ceramic. Observe the accessories tips in the
programme table.
A table of suitable types of food with appropriate weight
ranges and the accessories required can be found in
the section after the tips.
It is not possible to set a weight outside the weight
range.
With many dishes, a signal sounds after a certain time.
Turn or stir the food.
Defrosting:
▯
As far as possible, freeze and store food flat and in
portion-sized quantities at -18 °C.
▯
Place the frozen food on a flat ovenproof dish,
e.g. a glass or porcelain plate.
▯
After defrosting, allow the food to defrost for a
further 15 to 90 minutes until it reaches an even
temperature.
▯
Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat or
poultry. Drain off this liquid when turning meat and
poultry and under no circumstances use it for other
purposes or allow it to come into contact with other
foods.
▯
Only defrost bread and bread rolls in the required
amounts, as they quickly dry and harden.
▯
Place frozen bread rolls in the oven. Only fully
baked bread rolls are suitable.
▯
After turning, remove any minced meat that has
already defrosted.

Whole poultry should be placed in the ovenware
skin-side down.

the skin.

Add two to two and a half times the amount of water
to the rice.
Fish:
Fish fillet, fresh: Add 1 to 3 tablespoons of water or
lemon juice.
Leg of lamb:
