Prove dough
Your yeast dough will prove considerably more quickly 
using this heating function than at room temperature 
and will not dry out. Do not start the appliance if the 
cooking compartment is not completely cool.
Always allow yeast dough to prove twice.Use the 
settings indicated in the settings tables for the first and 
second proving stages (dough fermentation stage and 
final fermentation stage).
Dough fermentation 
Place the dough into a heat-resistant bowl and place 
this onto the wire rack. Use the settings indicated in the 
table.
Do not open the appliance door while the dough is 
proving, otherwise moisture will escape. Do not cover 
the dough.
Condensation builds up during the proving process, 
which steams up the door panel. Wipe out the cooking 
compartment after dough proving.Remove any 
limescale with a little vinegar and wipe with clean water.
Final fermentation 
Place your dough into the oven at the shelf position 
indicated in the table.
If you want to preheat the oven, the final fermentation 
stage takes place outside the appliance in a warm 
place.
The temperature and proving time are dependent on 
the type and quantity of the ingredients. For this reason, 
the values indicated in the settings table are intended 
as a guide only.
Defrosting
For defrosting frozen fruit, vegetables and baked items. 
Poultry, meat and fish should ideally be defrosted in the 
refrigerator. Not suitable for cream cakes or cream 
gateaux.
Use the following shelf positions when defrosting:
■ 1 wire rack: Position 2
■ 2 wire racks: Positions 3 + 1
The times indicated in the table are intended as a guide 
only.They are dependent on the quality, freezing 
temperature (-18 °C) and composition of the food. Time 
ranges are indicated.Set the shortest time to begin with, 
and then extend the time if necessary.
Tip: Food that has been frozen in thinner pieces or in 
portions defrosts more quickly than food items frozen in 
a block.
Remove frozen food from its packaging and place it 
onto the wire rack in suitable cookware.
Redistribute the food or turn it once or twice as it 
defrosts. Large pieces of food should be turned several 
times.As the food defrosts, break up any clumps and 
remove items which have already defrosted from the 
cooking compartment.
To allow the temperature to equalise, leave the 
defrosted food to rest for another 10 to 30 minutes in 
the appliance after switching it off.
