Notes
▯
Always preheat the appliance.
This will produce the best cooking results. The
cooking times specified refer to a preheated
appliance.
▯
The values specified are intended as a guide. The
actual cooking times depend on the quality and
temperature of the food before cooking and the
weight and thickness of the food to be cooked.
▯
The tables list temperature and/or time ranges. Try the
lowest value to start. You can always choose a longer
time next time if need be.
A lower temperature results in more even browning. If
necessary, set a higher temperature.
▯
The specifications refer to average quantities for four
people. If you would like to prepare more, you should
calculate a longer cooking time.
▯
Use the cookware specified. If you use other
cookware, cooking times may be longer or shorter.
▯
You may use any heat-resistant cookware. Place the
cookware in the center of the wire rack. For large
roasts, you can also use the grill or glass tray.
▯
Do not place too many items close together on the
wire racks or baking trays. This guarantees optimal
heat circulation.
▯
Open the door of the preheated oven for a short time
only when placing food inside the cooking
compartment.
▯
The details for the level refer to the slide-in level from
below for appliances with 4 slide-in levels. The values
in brackets refer to appliances with 5 slide-in levels.
▯
When removing glass cookware from the oven, set it
down on a dry hot pad, never on a cold or wet surface.
Otherwise, the glass may crack.
▯
Some operating modes are not available with all oven
models or only with special accessories.
▯
Eco hot air:
Energy-saving hot air mode for cakes, meats,
casseroles, and gratins. Residual heat is optimally
used. Convenience functions remain switched off (e.g.
the interior lighting). The cooking compartment
temperature can only be displayed while the appliance
is heating up. Do not preheat the oven.
Make sure that the cooking compartment is cold and
that there is nothing already in there when you place
the food inside. Then start the specified cooking time.
Always keep the appliance door closed when cooking.
This prevents heat loss.
▯
Full surface grill and full surface grill + circulated air:
In these operating modes, there may be a temperature
difference between the temperature you have set and
the actual temperature inside the oven. This is
because grilling and browning are fast cooking
processes that require high temperatures.
Consequently, for browning and roasting, a higher
temperature than is actually needed on the surface of
the food is selected.
