23 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.
23.1 General cooking tips
Please take note of the following information when
cooking all types of 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 place accessories into the cooking
compartment until it has finished preheating.
¡
Remove any accessories that are not being used
from the cooking compartment.
23.2 Baking tips
¡
Dark-coloured metal baking tins are most suitable
for baking cakes, bread and other baked goods.
¡
Use wide, shallow cookware for bakes and gratins.
Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow cook-
ware and it browns more on top.
¡
If you are cooking bakes directly in the universal
pan, place the universal pan into the cooking com-
partment at level 1.
¡
The setting values for bread dough apply to both
dough placed on a baking tray and dough placed in
a loaf tin.
ATTENTION!
When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-
side it will create steam. The change in temperature
may cause damage.
▶
Never pour water into the cooking compartment
when it is still hot.
▶
Never place cookware containing water on the
cooking compartment floor.
Shelf positions
If you bake on one level, use shelf position 1.

Notes
¡
Items that are placed in the appliance on baking
trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time will
not necessarily be ready at the same time.
¡
If you opt for cooking in combination with the mi-
crowave mode, you can only cook on one level.
23.3 Roasting, braising and grilling tips
¡
The recommended settings are for fridge-temperat-
ure food and unstuffed, oven-ready poultry.
¡
Place the poultry onto the cookware breast-side or
skin-side down.
¡
Turn roasting joints, grilled items or whole fish after
approx. ½ to ⅔ of the specified time.
Roasting on the wire rack
Food roasted on the wire rack will become very crispy
on all sides. You can roast large poultry, for example,
or multiple individual pieces at the same time.
¡
Roast pieces of a similar weight and thickness. The
grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succu-
lent and juicy.
¡
Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire
rack.
¡
To catch any liquids that drip down, place the uni-
versal pan into the cooking compartment one level
below the wire rack.
¡
Add up to ½ litre of water to the universal pan, de-
pending on the size and type of food that you want
to roast.
You can make a sauce from the juices that are col-
lected. This also means that less smoke is pro-
duced and the cooking compartment does not be-
come as dirty.
Roasting in cookware
If you cover the cookware when you cook your food,
this will keep the cooking compartment cleaner.
General information about roasting in cookware
¡
Use heat-resistant, ovenproof cookware.
¡
Place the cookware on the wire rack.
¡
Glass cookware is best.
¡
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roast-
ing dishes.
Roasting in uncovered cookware
¡
Use a deep roasting dish.
¡
If you do not have any suitable cookware, you can
use the universal pan.
Roasting in covered cookware
¡
Use a suitable lid that seals well.
¡
When roasting meat, there should be at least 3 cm
between the food and the lid. The meat may ex-
pand.
WARNING ‒ Risk of scalding!
Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened
after cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on
the temperature.
▶
Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can es-
cape away from you.
▶
Keep children away from the appliance.
Grilling
Grill food if you want it to be crispy.
