Here, you can find the ideal settings for preparing 
chilled and frozen food.
Only use original accessories supplied with your 
appliance. These have been tailored to the cooking 
compartment and the operating modes of your 
appliance.
Tips
■ The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of 
the food. Pre-browning and unevenness may already 
be present on the packaged product.
■ Do not use frozen products that are heavily frosted. 
Remove any ice on the food.
■ Distribute foods which are in pieces, such as bread 
rolls and potato products, so that they are spread 
flat and evenly on the accessories. Leave a little 
space between the individual pieces.
■ Observe the instructions on the packaging.
Steam- assisted baking
Certain types of baked item (e.g. yeast-risen pastries) 
get a more crispy crust and a more glossy surface if 
baked with the steam assist mode. The baked item 
does not dry out as much.
Steam-assisted baking is only possible on one level.
Shelf positions
Use the indicated shelf positions.
Baking on one level 
When baking on one level, use the following shelf 
position:
■ Level 1
Baking on two levels 
Use CircoTherm. Baked items that are placed into the 
oven on trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time 
will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
■ Universal pan: Level 3
Baking tray: Level 1
Accessories
Ensure that you always use suitable accessories and 
that they are placed in the oven the right way around.
Wire rack 
Insert the wire rack with the open side facing the 
appliance door and the curved lip pointing downwards. 
Always place ovenware, tins and dishes on the wire 
rack.
Universal pan or baking tray 
Slide the universal pan or the baking tray in carefully as 
far as the limit stop with the bevelled edge facing the 
appliance door.
Greaseproof paper 
Only use greaseproof paper that is suitable for the 
selected temperature. Always cut greaseproof paper to 
size.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for 
various dishes. Temperature and cooking time depend 
on the quantity and composition of the product. Setting 
ranges are indicated for this reason. Try using the lower 
values at first. A lower temperature results in more even 
browning. You can use a higher setting next time if 
necessary.
Note: Cooking times cannot be reduced by using 
higher temperatures. The dish would only be cooked on 
the outside, but would not be fully cooked in the middle.
The setting values apply to dishes placed into a cold 
cooking compartment. By doing so, you can make 
energy savings of up to 20 per cent. If you preheat the 
oven, the indicated cooking times will be reduced by 
several minutes.
Preheating is necessary for selected dishes, and this is 
indicated in the table.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking 
compartment. This will achieve the best possible 
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per 
cent.
