  • Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor: do not place accessories on the cooking compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking compartment floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper. Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor. This will cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
  • Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance model, accessories can scratch the door panel when closing the appliance door. Always insert the accessories into the cooking compartment as far as they will go.
  • Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
  • Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods This will damage the enamel.
  • Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
  • Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the cooking compartment to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance door is only open a little, the front panels of adjacent units could be damaged over time.
  • Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly when the appliance is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean.
  • Oven door as a bearing surface: do not stand or place objects on the oven door when it is open. Do not hang objects on the oven door.
  • Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance and could break.
  • Heavy accessories: do not pull out heavily laden accessories too far without first unloading them sufficiently. Heavy accessories will tip when pulled out. This causes pressure to be exerted on the shelf supports in the cooking compartment, which can damage the enamel. Relieve the strain on the accessories when they are pulled out by raising them slightly with one hand. Caution: always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when handling hot accessories.
  • Grilling: do not insert the baking tray or universal pan higher than level 3 when grilling. The high heat distorts it and the enamel may be damaged when it is removed. At levels 4 and 5, only grill directly on the wire rack.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs

Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products prepared at high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips, toast, bread rolls, bread or fine baked goods (biscuits,
gingerbread, cookies).

Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food

General| ■ Keep cooking times to a minimum.
■ Cook meals until they are golden brown, but not too dark.
■ Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
---|---
Baking| max. 200 °C.
Biscuits| max. 190 °C.
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chips| Spread out a single layer evenly on the baking tray. Cook at least 400 g at once on a
baking tray so that the chips do not dry out.

The cake has risen high in the middle and less around the edges.| Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. After baking, carefully loosen the cake using a knife.
The cake is too dark on the top.| Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little longer.
The cake is too dry.| When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an alcoholic drink over it. Next time, set the temperature 10 degrees higher and reduce the baking time.
The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake) looks good but is sticky on the inside (soggy with wet streaks).| Next time, use less liquid and bake at a lower temperature for slightly longer. For cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs and then place the topping on top. Take care to follow recipes and baking times.
The pastries are not evenly browned.| Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more evenly. Excess greaseproof paper can affect air circulation. Always cut the greaseproof paper to suit the size of the baking tray.
The bottom of a fruit flan is too light.| Place the cake one level lower the next time.
The fruit juice overflows.| Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one.
Small baked items made out of yeast dough stick to one another during baking.| There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for the baked items to expand and turn brown on all sides.
Condensation forms when you bake moist cakes.| Baking may create water vapor, which escapes above the door. The steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natural process.

Roasting and grilling

Ovenware
You may use any heat­resistant ovenware. Always place the ovenware in the middle of the wire rack. The enameled baking tray is also suitable for large roasts.

Roasting tips

  • A lower temperature produces more even browning.
  • Depending on the size of the joint, add 2 or 3 tablespoons of liquid to lean meat and 8 to 10 tablespoons of liquid to pot roasts.
  • When cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of the wings to allow the fat to run out.
  • Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter, salted water or orange juice.
  • Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.
  • When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for an additional 10 minutes. This will allow the meat juices to distribute themselves better inside the roast.
  • When roasting large pieces of meat, you may find that the amount of steam and condensation on the oven door is more than usual. This is a normal occurrence that has no effect on the oven’s performance. Once roasting is complete, dry the oven door and window with a cloth.
  • If you are roasting on the wire rack, insert the enameled baking tray into shelf position 1 to collect the drips of fat.

Grilling tips

  • If possible, grill items should be of equal thickness. They should be at least 2 to 3 cm thick. This ensures that they brown evenly while also remaining succulent.
  • Place the food to be grilled in the center of the wire rack. Pour a little water into the enameled baking tray and insert this into the shelf position underneath the grill to collect the drips of fat. Never place it on the cooking compartment floor.
  • Drizzle some oil over the food to be grilled before you place it on the wire rack under the grill.
  • If the food to be grilled is thin, turn it over halfway through grilling; if it is thick, turn it over several times during grilling. Use tongs when turning the food to avoid piercing it and, in the case of meat, to keep the meat juices inside the meat.
  • Dark meats such as lamb and beef brown better and more quickly than light meats such as pork and veal.

Tips on using the rotary spit

  • Place the joint as centrally as possible on the rotary spit and secure it at both ends with the retaining clips.
  • You can also truss the joint with string. With poultry, bind the ends of the wings underneath the back and the thighs against the body. This prevents them from over-browning. Pierce the skin on the underside of the wings to allow the fat to escape.

Roasting tips

How can you tell when the roast is ready?| Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist retailers) or carry out a “spoon test”. Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
---|---
The roast is too dark and the crackling is burnt in places.| Check the shelf position and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.| Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid.
The roast looks good, but the juices are
too clear and watery.| Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid.

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.
Information for those allergic to nickel
In rare cases, small amounts of nickel may pass into the food.
