For crispier food, we recommend switching this on in
the second half of the cooking time.

30.2 Baking tips
¡ Dark-coloured metal baking tins are most suitable
for baking cakes, bread and other baked goods.
¡ Use wide, shallow cookware for bakes and gratins.
Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow cook-
ware and it browns more on top.
¡ Silicone moulds are not suitable.
¡ If you are cooking bakes directly in the universal
pan, place the universal pan into the cooking com-
partment at level1.
¡ The setting values for bread dough apply to both
dough placed on a baking tray and dough placed in
a loaf tin.
¡ The recommended settings for baking in combina-
tion with the microwave mode are for metal baking
tins.
ATTENTION!
When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-
side it will create steam. The change in temperature
may cause damage.
▶ Never pour water into the cooking compartment
when it is still hot.
▶ Never place cookware containing water on the
cooking compartment floor.
30.3 Roasting, braising and grilling tips
¡ The recommended settings are for fridge-temperat-
ure food and unstuffed, oven-ready poultry.
¡ Place the poultry onto the cookware breast-side or
skin-side down.
¡ Turn roasting joints, grilled items or whole fish after
approx. ½ to ⅔ of the specified time.
Roasting on the wire rack
Food roasted on the wire rack will become very crispy
on all sides. You can roast large poultry, for example,
or multiple individual pieces at the same time.
¡ Roast pieces of a similar weight and thickness. The
grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succu-
lent and juicy.
¡ Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire
rack.
¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the uni-
versal pan into the cooking compartment one level
below the wire rack.
¡ Add up to ½litre of water to the universal pan, de-
pending on the size and type of food that you want
to roast.
You can make a sauce from the juices that are col-
lected. This also means that less smoke is pro-
duced and the cooking compartment does not be-
come as dirty.
Roasting in cookware
If you cover the cookware when you cook your food,
this will keep the cooking compartment cleaner.
General information about roasting in cookware
¡ Use heat-resistant, ovenproof cookware.
¡ Place the cookware on the wire rack.
¡ Glass cookware is best.
¡ Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roast-
ing dishes.
Roasting in uncovered cookware
¡ Use a deep roasting dish.
¡ If you do not have any suitable cookware, you can
use the universal pan.
Roasting in covered cookware
¡ Use a suitable lid that seals well.
¡ When roasting meat, there should be at least 3cm
between the food and the lid. The meat may ex-
pand.
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.
Grilling
Grill food if you want it to be crispy.
The "Grill" type of heating is good for cooking thinner
pieces of poultry, meat and fish such as steaks, drum-
sticks and burgers. It is also excellent for toasting
bread.
Circo-roasting is very well suited to cooking whole
poultry and fish, as well as meat, e.g. roast pork with
crackling.
¡ When grilling several food items, choose pieces that
are of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled
food will brown evenly and will remain succulent
and juicy.
¡ Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire
rack.
¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the uni-
versal pan into the cooking compartment at least
one level below the wire rack.
Notes
¡ The grill element switches on and off continuously.
This is normal. The temperature that you set determ-
ines how frequently this occurs.
¡ Smoke may be produced when grilling.
30.4 Microwave cooking
If you cook food using the microwave mode, you can
reduce the cooking time considerably.
General information
¡ When using the microwave mode, the cooking time
is determined based on the total weight.
If you want to cook a quantity that differs from the
specified quantity, the general rule is Double the
quantity requires just under double the cooking
time.
¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cook-
ware may become very hot.
¡ The main part of the instruction manual contains in-
formation on how to configure the microwave and
microwave boost oven settings.
