Overview of functions Your oven has a range of oven functions for preparing food. Functions which do not use microwave energy Some functions are selected directly from the control panel. Others only appear after selecting . Function Grill Recommended Temperature temperature range Level 3 Level 1–3 For grilling larger quantities of thin cuts (e.g. steak) and browning baked dishes. The whole of the grill glows red to create the required level of heat.
Overview of functions Function Auto roast This is used for roasting. The oven heats initially to a high temperature (approx. 230 °C) to seal the meat. As soon as this temperature has been reached, the oven temperature automatically drops back down to the pre-selected temperature for continued roasting. Gentle bake Recommended Temperature temperature range 160 °C 100–230 °C 190 °C 100–230 °C Ideal for cooking bakes and gratins that need to be crispy on top.
Overview of functions Microwave combination programmes With Microwave combination programmes the heating element and the magnetron switch on and off alternating one after the other. The heating element browns the food and the magnetron helps it cook quickly. A maximum microwave power level of 300 W can be used with Microwave combination programmes. Some functions are selected directly from the control panel. Others only appear after selecting .
Overview of functions Function Microwave + Grill Recommended Temperature temperature range Level 3 Level 1–3 For grilling larger quantities of thin cuts (e.g. steak) and browning baked dishes. The whole of the grill glows red to create the required level of heat. The use of microwave power reduces the grilling time. The maximum microwave power level that can be is 300 W. Microwave + Fan grill For grilling thicker cuts of meat (e.g. roulades, chicken).
Microwave power How it works In a microwave combination oven there is a high-frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior, and rebound off the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides. In order for microwaves to reach the food, they must be able to penetrate the cooking utensil being used. Microwaves can penetrate porcelain, glass, cardboard and plastics, but not metal.
Suitable containers for microwave use Fire hazard. Non-microwave safe dishes can suffer damage or damage the oven if used with Microwave solo or Microwave combination programmes. Microwaves are reflected by metal, The material and shape of the containers used affect cooking results and times. Heat distribution is more even in round and oval shaped flat containers than in rectangular containers, providing better results.
Suitable containers for microwave use Plastics – Plastic "Boil-in-the-bag" bags Plastic containers and plastic disposable containers may only be used for the Microwave solo function if they have been declared as suitable for microwave use by the manufacturer. To protect the environment it is best to avoid using single-use containers. Plastic boiling bags can be used for cooking and reheating. They should be pierced beforehand so that steam can escape.
Suitable containers for microwave use Unsuitable containers for microwave use Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with microwave power. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode. If the hollow recess is sufficiently ventilated, the item could be used. However, we recommend that you do not use such dishes in Microwave mode. Metal Metal reflects microwaves and obstructs the cooking process.
Suitable containers for microwave use – Pieces of aluminium foil For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of aluminium foil may be used to mask wingtips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the programme. Make sure that the aluminium foil is at least 2 cm from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls.
Suitable containers for microwave use Placing the dish in the oven Cover A cover: – prevents too much steam escaping, especially when cooking foods which need longer to cook. – speeds up the cooking process. – prevents food from drying out. – helps keep the oven interior clean. Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1. The dish containing the food should always be placed in the middle of the glass tray.
Suitable containers for microwave use The cover can only withstand temperatures up to 110 °C. Higher temperatures (e.g. those used for grilling and Fan plus) can cause the plastic to distort and fuse with the food. The cover should only be used with Microwave solo . The cover should not form a seal with the container. If the cover is used with a container which only has a narrow diameter, there might not be enough room for condensation to escape through the holes in the top.
Tips on saving energy Cooking process – Remove any accessories from the oven that you do not require for cooking. – Pre-heat the oven only if instructed to do so in the recipe or the cooking chart. – If possible, do not open the door during a programme. If the door is opened during a programme that is not using microwave power, the heat in the oven automatically switches off. The fans continue to operate. As soon as the door is closed again, the programme will continue.
Tips on saving energy – The oven heating will switch off automatically shortly before the end of a cooking process for which an automatic switch-off time has been set. Cooking continues using residual heat. The heat in the oven is sufficient to complete the cooking process. Energy save phase will appear in the display. The cooling fan and depending on the function selected, also the hot air fan, remain switched on.

Functions without microwave power Rapid heat-up Rapid heat-up shortens the heating-up phase. The top heat/grill element and the ring element come on together with the fan to enable the oven to reach the required temperature as quickly as possible. Rapid heat-up switches on automatically if you set the temperature above 100 °C for Fan plus or Auto roast . The sensor is lit up. Rapid heat-up should be switched off when cooking pizza and delicate items (e.g. sponge or biscuits).
Functions without microwave power Pre-heating the oven It is only necessary to pre-heat the oven in a few instances. Most dishes can be placed in a cold oven. They will then make use of the heat produced during the heating-up phase. Pre-heat the oven for the following when using Fan plus : – dark bread dough, – beef sirloin joints and fillet.
