UPPER AND BOTTOM HEATER The heaters in the bottom and in the ceiling of the oven cavity will radiate heat evenly into the oven interior. 2 Roasting meat: Use enamel coated, tempered glass, clay, or cast iron pan or tray. Stainless steel trays are not suitable as they strongly reflect the heat. Use enamel coated, tempered glass, clay, or cast iron pan or tray. Stainless steel trays are not suitable as they strongly reflect the heat.
Baking pastry Only use one level and dark baking sheets or trays. In light-coloured baking sheets or trays, the browning of the pastry will be poorer, as such equipment will reflect the heat. Always place the baking trays on the grid. If you are using the supplied baking sheet, remove the grid. Cooking time will be shorter if the oven is preheated.
Tip Use Is the cake done? • Pierce the cake at the top with a wooden toothpick or skewer. If there are no traces on the pick or the skewer when pulled out, the cake is done. Did the cake collapse? • Check the recipe. • Next time, use less liquid. • Note the mixing time when using small mixers, blenders etc. The cake is too light at the bottom? • Use a dark-coloured baking sheet or tray. • Place the baking sheet one guide lower and switch on the lower heater towards the end of the cooking progress.

Roasting with a meat probe (depending on the model) In this mode, set the desired temperature of the food core. The oven operates until the food core reaches the set temperature. Temperature core is measured by the temperature probe. 1 Remove the metal cap (the socket is in the front upper corner of the oven right wall). 2 Connect the meat probe plug to the socket and stick the probe into the food. (If any timer settings were activated, they will be cancelled.
During cooking, the rising temperature of the core will be displayed (the desired core temperature may be adjusted during the cooking process). When the set core temperature is reached, the cooking process will stop. An acoustic signal will be heard which you may turn off by touching any key. After one minute, the acoustic signal will be switched off automatically. Clock will appear on the display. After the cooking process, replace the metal cap of the meat probe socket.
HOT AIR Round heater and the fan will operate. The fan installed in the back wall of the oven cavity makes sure the hot air constantly circulates around the roast or pastry. 2 Roasting meat: Use enamel coated, tempered glass, clay, or cast iron pan or tray. Stainless steel trays are not suitable as they strongly reflect the heat. Provide enough liquid during the cooking process to prevent the meat from burning. Turn the meat during roasting. The roast will remain juicier if you cover it.
Baking pastry Preheating is recommended. Biscuits and cookies can be baked in shallow baking sheets on several levels simultaneously (2nd and 3rd). Note that baking time can differ even with if the baking sheets used are the same. The biscuits in the upper baking sheet may be ready sooner than those in the lower one. Always place the baking trays on the grid. If you are using the supplied baking sheet, remove the grid. For even browning, make sure the biscuits are of the same thickness.
BOTTOM HEATER AND FAN This is used for baking leavened but lowrising pastry and for preserving fruit and vegetables. Use the second guide from the bottom and a rather shallow baking tray to allow the hot air to circulate across the upper side of the dish.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING Be sure to unplug the appliance from the power supply and wait for the appliance to cool down. Children should not clean the appliance or perform maintenance tasks without proper supervision. Aluminium finish Clean the aluminium finish with non-abrasive liquid cleaners intended for such surfaces. Apply the cleaner onto a wet cloth and clean the surface. Then, rinse the surface with water. Do not apply the cleaner directly onto the aluminium finish.
CONVENTIONAL OVEN CLEANING You may use the standard cleaning procedure to clean stubborn dirt in the oven (using cleaners or an oven spray). After such cleaning, rinse the cleaner residues thoroughly. Clean the oven and the accessories after each use to prevent the dirt from burning into the surface. The easiest way to remove fat is by using warm soapsuds while the oven is still warm. With stubborn dirt and grime, use conventional oven cleaners.
AUTOMATIC OVEN CLEANING – PYROLYSIS For average use of the oven, we recommend running the pyrolysis function once per month. Wipe the oven and the accessories to be cleaned in the oven with a damp cloth! Chunks of food and fat may ignite during the pyrolysis process. Danger of fire! Before pyrolytic cleaning, remove all accessories from the oven. 1 Turn the COOKING SYSTEM SELECTOR KNOB to "P". Cleaning intensity level and time are displayed. 2 Choose the desired cleaning intensity.
REMOVING AND CLEANING WIRE AND TELESCOPIC EXTENDIBLE GUIDES Only use conventional cleaners to clean the guides. A Hold the guides by the bottom side and pull them towards the center of the oven cavity. B Remove them from the openings at the top. Do not clean the extendible guides in the dishwasher.
INSTALLING THE CATALYTIC INSERTS Only use conventional cleaners to clean the guides. Remove the wire guides or extendible guides. 1 Mount the guides onto the catalytic insert. 2 Hang the inserts with guides attached using the holes provided, and pull upwards. When installing fully extendible guides with catalytic inserts, insert one end of the supplied snap locks into the openings at the bottom of the oven cavity wall and insert the other end of the snap locks into the guides.
REMOVING AND INSERTING THE OVEN DOOR SOFT DOOR CLOSING (depending on the model) Oven door is fitted with a system that dampens the door closing force, starting at the 75-degree angle. It allows simple, quiet, and smooth closing of the door. A gentle push (to a 15-degree angle relative to the closed door position) is enough for the door to close automatically and softly. If the force applied to close the door is too strong, the effect of the system is reduced or the system will be bypassed for safety.
DOOR LOCK (depending on the model) Open the door lock by gently pushing it to the right with your thumb while simultaneously pulling the door outwards. 503555 When the oven door is closed, the door lock automatically returns to the initial position.
REMOVING AND INSERTING THE OVEN DOOR GLASS PANE Oven door glass pane can be cleaned from the inside, but it has to be removed first. Remove the oven door (see chapter "Removing and replacing the oven door"). 1 Slightly lift the supports on the left and right side of the door (marking 1 on the support) and pull them away from the glass pane (marking 2 on the support). 2 Hold the door glass pane by the lower edge; slightly lift it so that it is no longer attached to the support; and remove it.
REPLACING THE BULB The bulb is a consumable and therefore not covered by warranty. Before changing the bulb, remove the trays, the grid, and the guides. Use a Phillips (cross) screwdriver. (Halogen lamp: G9, 230 V, 25 W; regular bulb E14, 25 W, 230 V) Use a flat screwdriver to release the bulb cover and remove it. Remove the bulb. Be careful not to damage the enamel. Undo the bulb cover and remove the bulb. 503555 Use protection to avoid burs.
TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE Problem/error Cause There is no response of the sensors; the display is frozen. Disconnect the appliance from the power mains for a few minutes (undo the fuse or switch off the main switch); then, reconnect the appliance and switch it on. The main fuse in your home trips often.
