Vegetables
Notes
■
Fresh vegetables: cut into pieces of equal size. Add
2 tablespoons of water for every 100 g vegetables.
■
Frozen vegetables: this programme is only suitable for
blanched, not pre-cooked vegetables. It is not suitable for
frozen vegetables in cream sauce. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of
water per 100 g. Do not add water to spinach or red
cabbage.
Baked potatoes
Note:
Use potatoes of equal size. Wash the potatoes and prick
the skin several times. Place the potatoes on the wire rack
while they are still damp.
Chicken halves
Note:
Place the chicken halves on the wire rack with the skin
side facing up. Place the wire rack in the glass pan so that it
catches the dripping fat or meat juices.
Resting times
Some dishes need to rest in the oven after the programme has
ended.

Notes
■
The values in the table always apply to food placed into the
cooking compartment when it is cold and empty. Only
preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you should do
so. Before using the appliance, remove all accessories from
the cooking compartment that you will not be using.
■
Do not line the accessories with greaseproof paper until after
they have been preheated.
■
The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They will
depend on the quality and composition of the food.

Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be
obtained from specialist retailers or from the after-sales
service.
■
Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when taking
accessories or ovenware out of the cooking compartment.
