11. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

11.1 Inner side of the door

In some models, on the inner side of
the door you can find:
• The numbers of the shelf positions.
• Information about the heating func-

tions, recommended shelf positions
and temperatures for typical dishes.

The temperature and baking
times in the tables are guidelines
only. They depend on the rec-
ipes and the quality and quantity
of the ingredients used.

11.2 Advice for special
heating functions of the oven

Keep Warm

Use this function if you want to keep
food warm.
The temperature regulates itself auto-
matically to 80 °C.

Plate Warming

For warming plates and dishes.
Distribute plates and dishes evenly on
the oven shelf. Move stacks around after
half of the warming time (swap top and
bottom).
The automatic temperature is 70 °C.
Recommended shelf position: 3.

Dough Proving

You can use this automatic function with
any recipe for yeast dough you like. It
gives you a good atmosphere for rising.
Put the dough into a dish that is big
enough for rising and cover it with a wet
towel or plastic foil. Insert a wire shelf on
level one and put the dish in. Close the
door and set the function dough prov-
ing. Set the necessary time.

11.3 Cooking with steam

Cookware for steam cooking
• Use only heat and corrosion resistant

cookware or chrome steel food con-
tainers (for some models only).

Shelf positions
• The correct shelf positions are in the

table below. Count the shelf positions
from the bottom to the top.

General notes
• When you cook longer than 30 mi-

nutes or when you cook large quanti-
ties of food, add water if it is necessa-
ry.

• Put the food into the correct cooking

containers and put the containers on
the shelves. Make sure that there is
some distance between the shelves to
let the steam circulate around each
container.

• After each use, remove the water from

the water drawer, connecting hoses
and steam generator. Refer to the
chapter "Care and cleaning".

Notes on the tables for steam cooking
• The tables give data for typical dishes.
• The temperature and time are for

guidance only and depend on the
type, dimensions and quantity of the
food and cookware.

• Use a recipe that is almost the same if

you cannot find the settings for your
recipe.

• Start the procedure with a cold appli-

ance unless the data in the tables is
different.

• When you cook rice, use a ratio of

1.5:1 – 2:1 water to rice because rice
absorbs water.
