Caution!

Material damage due to effect of heat: The temperature 

generated in the cooking compartment is very high. Keep the 

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

appliance door open.

Notes

■

It is preferable to use the universal pan with wire insert for 

grilling

■

Place the insert grid into the universal pan and slide the two 

in together at the shelf position specified in the grilling table

■

Always place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire 

rack

■

If you are grilling more than one piece of meat, make sure 

that they are the same sort of meat and that they are of 

similar thickness and weight.

■

Use the wire rack for particularly large quantities. Insert the 

wire rack at the shelf position indicated in the grilling table. To 

prevent the oven from becoming dirty, insert the universal 

pan one level lower.

Circo-roasting

The 

4

 Circo-roasting operating mode is particularly suitable for 

poultry or meat (e.g. roast pork with crackling) that is to be 

crispy.
Turn large items of food after approximately half to two-thirds of 

the grilling time. For items of food with rind, place them on the 

wire rack rind-side down for the first half of the grilling time.
Pierce duck and goose skin under the wings and legs to allow 

the fat to escape. 
Depending on the type of food you are cooking, the cooking 

compartment may become very dirty when you cook food using 

Circo-roasting. You should therefore clean the cooking 

compartment after every use so that the dirt does not become 

burnt on. 
At the end of the cooking time, switch the grill off and leave the 

food to stand for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking 

compartment with the door closed. The recommended standing 

time is not included in the grilling times specified.

Radiant grilling

For flat items to be grilled, use the 

(

 full-surface grill.

Brush the items to be grilled with a little oil according to taste.
Turn the items after half to two-thirds of the grilling time.
You can influence the grilling result by changing the position of 

the wire rack.

Note: 

Always use the universal pan in the standard position 

(not the other way up).

Grilling table

The details given in the table are guidelines and apply to the 

enamelled universal pan with wire insert. The values may vary 

depending on the type and amount of items to be grilled.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first 

time. A lower temperature will generally provide more even 

browning. 
The values refer to food placed in the oven when it is cold and 

for meat taken directly from the refrigerator.
