Using your oven
General Information
[
Please note the safety instructions on page 18!
[
Attention. Risk of overheating!
Do not cover the bottom of the oven
with aluminium foil and do not place pots or pans directly on the bottom
of the oven! This will trap heat and damage the enamel surface.
F
When the oven is in use, it becomes hot. As soon as the casing becomes
warm, a fan switches on to cool it down. The cooling fan keeps running
until the housing has cooled down - even after the oven is switched off.
The fan noise is normal and should not be mistaken for a malfunction.

Symbols and operating modes
Heating-up indicator and pilot light
The heating-up indicator on the control panel will light up while the appliance
is heating up and will go out as soon as the set temperature has been
reached. It also comes on during operation when the oven is heated to
maintain the temperature you want.
The pilot light is on as long as a cooking zone is in use.
Turning the oven on and off
Selecting the operating mode:
– Turn the mode selector (the switch
on the left) to the right.
Selecting the temperature:
– Turn the temperature selector (the
2nd switch from the left) to the
right.
Turning the oven off:
– Turn both switches to the
“0” position.
Oven trays
Trays:
■
Lift them slightly before taking them out of the oven.
When you put them back in the oven, make sure that the sloping edge of
the tray is pointing towards the oven door.
■
Push the drip pan (acc. No. 543) and baking tray with the two slots right
at the back into the oven.
Gridiron:
■
The crossbars on the racks
should point towards the back of
the oven (away from you).
Drip pan (accessory)
■
For baking moist cakes and as receiver for roasting and grilling we
recommend the use of the drip pan.
Grilling rack with lifter to insert in
the drip pan (accessory)
■
The grilling rack is inserted in the drip
pan. Its lifter allows you to remove
both the tray and the drip pan together
from the oven. The drip pan remains
in place to catch any drips.
Splash guard roasting tray
(accessory) for roasting and grilling
■
The roasting tray is inserted in the drip pan and prevents the fat from
splashing out of the drip pan.
Rack levels
There are 8 rack levels in the side racks. These are numbered from 0 to 7,
from bottom to top. For example, the drip pan (acc.) can be inserted into rack
level 0.
Side racks:
Rack level 0 is the lowest
possible level.
