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.

Chrome steel food containers are cor-
rect too (see special accessories).

Oven levels
• There are the correct oven levels in

the table below. Count the oven levels
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 in the correct cooking

containers on the shelves. Keep the
distance between the shelves to let
the steam get to each food.

• If you do not use the oven for a long

time, remove water from the water
drawer, connecting hoses and steam
generator (refer to section "Cleaning
and Care").

Note on the tables for Steam Cooking
• The tables give data for typical dishes.
The temperature and time are for guid-
ance only and depend on the composi-
tion, size , quantity of food and the
cookware.
Use almost the same recipe if you can-
not find the settings for your recipe.
Start the cooking with the cold oven if
the data in the tables does not recom-
mend differently.
Increase the amount of water for rice to
the ratio 1 : 1.5 - 1: 2 contrary to the
specifications in the table.

11.4 True Fan Cooking and
Full Steam in succession

• You can cook meat, vegetables and

accompaniments one after the other
by combining functions. All compo-
nents are ready to serve at the same
time.

• Use True Fan Cooking function to ini-

tially roast the food.

• Put prepared vegetables and accom-

paniments in ovenproof dishes. Put in
the oven with the roast.

• Cool down the oven to a temperature

of around 80 °C. To cool down the ap-
pliance quicker open the oven door to
the first position for approximately 15
minutes.
