WARNING Risk of fire! Using the appliance for anything other than its intended purpose is dangerous and may cause damage. For example, heated slippers and pillows filled with grain or cereal may catch fire, even several hours later. Never dry food or clothing with the appli-
ance. Never heat up slippers, pillows filled with
grain or cereal, sponges, damp cleaning cloths or similar with the appliance. The appliance must only be used to prepare food and drink.

Food and its packaging and containers may catch fire. Never heat food in heat- retaining pack-
aging. Do not leave food unattended while it is
heating in containers made of plastic, paper or other combustible materials. Never set the microwave power too high or the cooking time too long. Follow the instructions provided in this user manual. Never use the microwave to dry food. Never defrost or heat food with a low water content, such as bread, at too high a microwave power or for too long. Cooking oil may catch fire. Never use the microwave to heat cooking oil on its own.
WARNING Risk of explosion! Liquids and other food may easily explode when in containers that have been tightly sealed. Never heat liquids or other food in contain-
ers that have been tightly sealed. WARNING Risk of burns!
Foods with peel or skin may burst or explode during heating, or even afterwards. Never cook eggs in their shell or heat hard-
boiled eggs in their shell. Never cook shellfish or crustaceans. Always prick the yolk of eggs before mi-
crowaving. The skin of foods that have a peel or skin,
such as apples, tomatoes, potatoes and sausages, may burst. Before heating, prick the peel or skin. Heat is not distributed evenly through baby food. Never heat baby food in closed containers. Always remove the lid or teat. Stir or shake well after heating. Check the temperature before giving the food or drink to a child. Heated food gives off heat. The cookware may become hot. Always use oven gloves to remove cookware or accessories from the cooking compartment.

4

Airtight packaging may burst when food is heated. Always follow the instructions on the pack-
aging. Always use oven gloves to remove the
dishes from the cooking compartment. The accessible parts of the appliance become hot during operation. Never touch these hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance. At the highest settings in microwave only mode, the drying function will automatically switch on an additional heating element to heat the cooking compartment. Never touch the inside surfaces of the
cooking compartment or the heating elements while they are hot. Keep children at a safe distance. Using the appliance for anything other than its intended purpose is dangerous. This is because, for instance, overheated slippers, pillows filled with grain or cereal, sponges and damp cleaning cloths, etc., may cause burns to the skin. Never dry food or clothing with the appliance. Never heat up slippers, pillows filled with grain or cereal, sponges, damp cleaning cloths or similar with the appliance. The appliance must only be used to prepare food and drink.
WARNING Risk of scalding! There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated. This means that the liquid reaches the boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Exercise caution even when only gently shaking the container. The hot liquid may suddenly boil over and splatter. Always place a spoon in the container
when heating liquids. This prevents delayed boiling.

Safetyen
WARNING Risk of injury! Unsuitable cookware may crack. Porcelain or ceramic cookware can have small perforations in the handles and lid. These perforations conceal a cavity below. If moisture penetrates this cavity, it could cause the cookware to crack. Only use microwave-safe cookware. Cookware and containers made from metal or cookware with metal edging may lead to sparks being formed during simple microwave operation. The appliance is damaged. Never use metal containers during mi-
crowave-only operation. Only use microwave-safe cookware or use
the microwave in combination with a type of heating.
WARNING Risk of electric shock! The appliance uses a high voltage. Never remove the casing.
WARNING Risk of serious harm to health! Inadequate cleaning may destroy the surface of the appliance, reduce its service life, and lead to dangerous situations, such as escaping microwave energy. Clean the appliance on a regular basis,
and remove any food residue immediately. Always keep the cooking compartment,
door seal, door and door stop clean. “Cleaning and servicing”, Page 20 Never operate the appliance if the cooking compartment door or the door seal is damaged. Microwave energy may escape. Never use the appliance if the cooking compartment door, the door seal or the plastic door frame is damaged. Any repair work must only be carried out by the after-sales service.

enPreventing material damage

1.6Cleaning function

WARNING Risk of burns! The outside of the appliance gets very hot when the cleaning function is in progress. Never touch the appliance door. Allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children at a safe distance.

2 Preventing material damage
2.1General
ATTENTION! Objects on the cooking compartment floor at over 50 °C will cause heat to build up. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged. Do not place any accessories, greaseproof paper or
foil of any kind on the cooking compartment floor. Only place cookware on the cooking compartment
floor if a temperature above 50 °C has been set. When the cooking compartment is hot, any water inside 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. The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking compartment leads to corrosion. Allow the cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment
for a long time with the door closed. Do not store food in the cooking compartment. Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over time. Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
down with the door closed after cooking at high temperatures. Take care not to trap anything in the appliance door. Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced during operation. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. When baking very juicy fruit flans, do not pack too much on the baking tray. If possible, use the deeper universal pan. Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment damages the enamel. Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment when it is still warm. Remove all food remnants from the cooking compartment and the appliance door before you next heat up the appliance. If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. This may damage the front of adjacent kitchen units. Keep the seal clean at all times. Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing.

Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may damage it. Do not place or hang objects on the appliance door. Do not place cookware or accessories on the appli-
ance door. With certain models, accessories may scratch the door pane when closing the appliance door. Always push accessories fully into the cooking com-
partment.
2.2Microwave
Follow these instructions when using the microwave. ATTENTION! Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or the inner door pane. Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the inside of the door. Using accessories directly on top of one another causes sparks. Do not combine the wire rack with the universal pan. Always place accessories on different levels. The universal pan and baking tray are not suitable for use with microwave-only mode. Using either of these may create sparks, which will damage the cooking compartment. Place accessories on the wire rack supplied. Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may cause sparks, which will damage the appliance. Do not use aluminium containers in the appliance. Operating the appliance without food in the cooking compartment may lead to overloading. Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The only exception to this rule is when performing a short cookware test.
If you prepare microwave popcorn at a microwave power level that is too high, the door pane may crack due to overloading. Never set a microwave power level that is too high. Use a maximum microwave output of 600 watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass plate.

Environmental protection and saving energyen

3 Environmental protection and saving energy

3.1Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled. Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power. Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so. ¡ Not preheating the appliance can reduce the en-
ergy used by up to 20%. Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins. ¡ These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
larly well. Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation. ¡ This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment and eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat.

When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel. ¡ The cooking compartment is heated after baking
the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends. ¡ There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the dish. Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment. ¡ Accessories that are not being used do not need to be heated. Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking. ¡ This saves the energy that would otherwise be required to defrost it. Note: The appliance requires: ¡ A maximum of 1 W when the appliance is in operation with the display switched on ¡ A maximum of 0.5 W when the appliance is in operation with the display switched off

25 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.
25.1General 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 cooking 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.
25.2Baking 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 cookware and it browns more on top.
¡ If you are cooking bakes directly in the universal pan, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment 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 inside 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.
28

24.1Product number (E-Nr.) and production number (FD)
You can find the product number (E-Nr.) and the production number (FD) on the appliance’s rating plate. You will see the rating plate with these numbers if you open the appliance door.

Make a note of your appliance’s details and the Customer Service telephone number to find them again quickly.

Baking on 2 levels Universal pan Baking tray Baking tins on two wire racks

Shelf position 3 1 3 1

Use the 4D hot air heating function. 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 microwave mode, you can only cook on one level.
25.3Roasting, braising and grilling tips
¡ The recommended settings are for fridge-temperature 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 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 succulent and juicy. ¡ Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire rack. ¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment one level below the wire rack. ¡ Add up to ½ litre of water to the universal pan, depending on the size and type of food that you want to roast. You can make a sauce from the juices that are collected. This also means that less smoke is produced and the cooking compartment does not become 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 expand.
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. ATTENTION! Acidic food may damage the grid Do not place acidic food, such as fruit or food with
an acidic marinade directly on the pan support.
¡ When grilling several food items, choose pieces that are of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succulent and juicy.
¡ Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire rack.
¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment at least one level below the wire rack.
Notes ¡ The grill element switches on and off continuously.
This is normal. The grill setting that you use determines how frequently this occurs. ¡ Smoke may be produced when grilling. Information for those allergic to nickel In rare cases, small amounts of nickel may pass into the food.

How it worksen
25.4Microwave cooking
If you use the microwave mode, you can reduce the cooking time considerably. General information ¡ When using the microwave mode, the cooking time
is determined based on the total weight. If you want to cook a quantity that differs from the specified quantity, the general rule is Double the quantity requires just under double the cooking time. ¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cookware can become very hot. ¡ In the main part of the instruction manual, you will find information on how to configure the microwave and microwave combination oven settings. ­ “Microwave combination”, Page 16 ­ “Microwave”, Page 15 Cooking, braising or steaming using the microwave mode ¡ Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. Alternatively, you can use a plate or special microwaveable film to cover the dish. ¡ For cereal products, e.g. rice, use deep cookware with a lid. Cereal products foam a lot during cooking. Add liquid in accordance with the instructions and information provided in the recommended settings tables. ¡ Do not wash or dry food. Add 1-3 tablespoons of water or lemon juice to the food. ¡ Spread the food out so that as much of it as possible is in contact with the bottom of the cookware. Food that is in contact with the bottom will cook more quickly than food that is piled up. ¡ Use salt and seasoning sparingly. When cooking food using the microwave mode, most of the food’s natural flavour will be retained. ¡ Turn or stir the food 2-3 times during cooking. ¡ After cooking, leave the food to rest for 2-3 minutes.
25.5Cooking frozen products
¡ Do not use heavily frosted frozen products. ¡ Remove any ice. ¡ Some frozen products may be unevenly pre-baked.
Uneven browning may remain even after baking.
25.6Cooking ready meals
¡ Take ready meals out of the packaging. ¡ If you are warming or cooking the ready meal in
cookware, make sure that the cookware is heat-resistant.

Defrosting You can defrost frozen food in your appliance.
Tips for defrosting food ¡ You can use the “microwave” mode to defrost
frozen fruit, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish or baked goods. ¡ Remove frozen food from its packaging before you defrost it. ¡ Use heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware. ¡ The recommended settings are for freezer- temperature food (-18 °C).

¡ Defrosting works best if you divide it into more than one step. The steps are listed one after the other in the recommended settings tables.
¡ Stir or turn the food 1-2 times during defrosting. Turn large items several times. Split the food into smaller pieces as it defrosts. Remove pieces that have already defrosted from the cooking compartment.
¡ Once the food has defrosted, switch off the appliance and leave the food in the appliance for another 10 to 30 minutes to allow the temperature to equalise.

Warming up food using the microwave mode You can use the microwave mode to warm up food or to defrost and warm up food in a single step.
Tips for warming up food using the microwave mode ¡ Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. ¡ Turn or stir the food 2-3 times during warming. ¡ After warming up the food, leave it to rest for
1-2 minutes. ¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cook-
ware can become very hot. ¡ Make sure that you do the following when you are
warming up baby food: ­ Place bottles on the wire rack without the teat or
lid. ­ Shake or stir the baby food well after warming it
up. ­ Always check the temperature of the baby food. ¡ Wipe the cooking compartment dry after using it to warm up food.

WARNING Risk of scalding! There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little, the hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter. Always place a spoon in the container when heating
liquids. This will prevent delayed boiling. ATTENTION! Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or the inner door pane. Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the inside of the door.

Keeping food warm
Tips for keeping food warm ¡ Using the “Keep warm” heating function prevents
condensation from forming. You will not have to wipe down the cooking compartment.

¡ To prevent the food from drying out, you can cover it.
¡ Do not keep food warming for longer than 2 hours. ¡ Be aware that some types of food will actually con-
tinue cooking when you are keeping them warm in the oven.
