Notes

¡

When baking on several layers, always use hot air.
Baked goods that are placed in the oven at the
same time will not necessarily be ready at the same
time.

¡

Position baking tins/dishes either next to one an-
other or offset on different shelves so that they are
not directly one above the other in the cooking com-
partment.

¡

For best results, we recommend using dark-col-
oured metal bakeware.

22.3 Notes on roasting and grilling

The setting values are based on the assumption that
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry, meat or fish is
placed into a cold cooking compartment.

¡

The larger the poultry, meat or fish, the lower the
cooking temperature and the longer the cooking
time.

¡

Turn the poultry, meat or fish after approx. 1/2 to
2/3 of the time listed.

¡

Add a little liquid to the poultry in the cookware.
Cover the bottom of the cookware with approx. 1–
2 cm of liquid.

¡

When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side
or skin side is underneath to begin with.

Roasting and grilling on the wire rack

Roasting on the wire rack works particularly well for
large poultry or for multiple pieces at the same time.

¡

Depending on the size and type of the food to be
roasted, add up to 1/2 litre water to the universal
pan.
You can make a sauce from the juices that are
caught. This also means that less smoke is pro-
duced and the cooking compartment becomes less
dirty.

¡

Keep the appliance door closed when using the
grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.

¡

Place the food to be grilled on the wire rack. In ad-
dition, slide the universal pan in at least one shelf
position lower, with the slanted edge facing the ap-
pliance door. This means that any dripping fat is
caught.

Roasting in cookware

When preparing food in cookware with a lid, the cook-
ing compartment remains cleaner.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roasting
dishes. Glass cookware is best.

Cookware without lid

¡

Use a deep roasting dish.

¡

Place the cookware onto the wire rack.

¡

If you do not have any suitable cookware, use the
universal pan.

Cookware with lid

¡

Place the cookware onto the wire rack.

¡

Meat, poultry and fish can also become crispy in a
covered roasting dish. Use a roasting dish with a
glass lid. Set a higher temperature.

WARNING ‒ Risk of injury!

If hot glass cookware is placed on a wet or cold sur-
face, the glass may shatter.

Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cook-
ing.

WARNING ‒ Risk of scalding!

Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened
after cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on
the temperature.

Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can es-
cape away from you.

Keep children away from the appliance.
