Baking Use the BAKING, FAN COOKING or CONVENTIONAL oven functions for baking. Baking tins • Cake tins made of dark metal and coated tins are suitable for CONVENTIONAL. • Baking tins made of light metal are also suitable for BAKING and FAN COOKING. Shelf positions • Baking with BAKING or CONVENTIONAL is only possible on one shelf position at a time. • With FAN COOKING you can bake on up to three baking trays at once: 1 Baking tray e.g., shelf position 3 1 Baking tin: e.g.
3 General information • Remove the fat filter when baking, as otherwise the baking time is longer and the surface will brown unevenly. • Always count the shelf positions from the bottom upwards. • Insert baking sheets with the bevelled edge to the front! • Always place cake tins in the middle of the shelf. • With BAKING or CONVENTIONAL you can also bake with two tins at the same time by placing them side by side on the shelf. There is no significant increase in baking time.

3 Notes on the roasting table Information is given in the table on suitable oven functions, temperature settings, cooking times and shelf positions for various types of meat. The information is for guidance. • We recommend roasting meat and fish with a minimum weight of 1kg in the oven. • Generally the CONVENTIONAL function is particularly suitable for very lean meat such as fish or game. For all other types of meat (especially poultry) we recommend the ROTITHERM function.

Grilling To grill use the DUAL GRILL or SINGLE GRILL oven function with a temperature setting of 300 °C. 1 Important: Always grill with the oven door closed. 3 Always pre-heat the empty oven for 5 minutes using the grill functions! Ovenware for grilling • Use the shelf unit and universal tray together for grilling. Shelf positions • For grilling flat foods you should mainly use the 4th shelf position from the bottom.
Bio-Functions The low temperatures that can be set on this oven enable meat to be cooked so that it is particularly tender and juicy. Yoghurt can also be made, dough proven and fruit dried in the oven. 1 Caution: The suggested temperature must be changed for all biofunctions! 2 When roasting at low temperatures you will need up to 20 percent less energy than when roasting conventionally. Low Temperature Roasting Use the ROTITHERM oven function for low temperature roasting.
Notes on low temperature roasting The roasting times are only for guidance and are dependent on the type and quality of the meat or fish. • The thicker and heavier a piece of meat, the longer the browning time and subsequent final roasting time. • It is only necessary to turn whole poultry. • Only add vegetables after approx. 2/3 of the browning time. • Once the item has been browned do not open the oven door again! (Turn poultry first.) The loss of heat would significantly extend the roasting time. 1.
