1.3 Safe use
WARNING
When properly cared for, your new appliance has been
designed to be safe and reliable.
Read all instructions carefully before use. These
precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock,
fire, and injury to persons.
When using kitchen appliances, basic safety
precautions must be followed, including those in the
following pages.
WARNING
While cooking food items, small amounts of certain by-
products, such as particulate matter / soot, can be
released. To minimize exposure to these substances:
Always ensure proper ventilation by using an
appropriate ventilation fan or hood vented to the
outside and/or an open window.
Always operate the unit according to the instructions in
this manual.
WARNING
Overheated materials can cause fire or burns and may
produce potentially harmful smoke or fumes.
To prevent overheating, turn ventilation hood ON when
heating grease, fats or frying using medium to high heat
settings.
Avoid heating empty pots and pans.
Do not allow pans to boil dry.
Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper, or cloth to
come in contact with a hot surface element, burner, or
grate.
WARNING
If materials inside an oven or warming drawer should
ignite, keep door closed.
Turn off the appliance and disconnect the circuit at the
circuit breaker box.
A fire could occur during cooking.
Always have a working smoke detector near the
kitchen.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,
highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil.
Doing so blocks air flow through the oven.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.

potholders, or other flammable materials contact
heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they
have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the
appliance may become hot enough to cause burns.
Among these surfaces are oven vent openings,
surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
Use Care When Opening Door - Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly
and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape.
Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure

After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with
your cooking.
Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or
cleaning purposes.
Do not leave open doors unattended.
Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some
cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot
surface. Wet clothes and sponges can cause burns from
steam.
CAUTION
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content
(e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of
burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven.
Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open
the oven door carefully.
Placement of Oven Racks - Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If the rack must be
moved while the oven is hot, do not let potholders contact
the hot heating elements in the oven. Use caution when
removing oven racks from the lowest rack position to
avoid contact with the hot oven door.

3.1 Disposal of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible
and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose of
them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the
same time.
a
With steam, various dishes can be prepared at the
same time without the different flavors mixing. When
preparing dishes with different cooking times, those
with the longest cooking time should be placed in the
oven first.
When cooking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in
parallel.
a
The oven cavity is heated after cooking the first dish.
This reduces the cooking time for the following dishes.
Use dark-colored or black-coated baking tins.
a
These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly
well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
a
This maintains the temperature in the oven cavity and
eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat.
Remove any accessories that are not being used from the
oven cavity.
a
Accessories that are not being used do not need to be
heated.
Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.
a
This saves the energy that would otherwise be required
to defrost it.

15
Symbols Function/type of heating Temperature/setting Use
Hot air + 60 % humidity 86-445°F
(30-230°C)
Combi-operation at 300-445°F
(150-230°C): The combination of
hot air and steam guarantees a
juicy yet crispy result. For poultry
and meals with a high level of
moisture, such as bakes, lasagne.
Hot air + 30 % humidity 86-445°F
(30-230°C)
Combi-operation at 300-445°F
(150-230°C): The inherent
moisture of the meals is retained
and they are prevented from drying
out. For bakes, cakes.
Convection + 0 % humidity 86-445°F
(30-230°C)
Hot air is distributed evenly and
moisture can escape from the
cooking compartment. For moist
foods, such as fruit cake, quiches,
bakes.
Broil + circulated air 86-445°F
(30-230°C)
Extremely intensive heat from
above, which is distributed quickly
and evenly by the fan. Guarantees
that a crust is formed with
simultaneous all-round heating.
For meat, poultry, fish, vegetable
skewers. No preheating is
required.
Broil level 1 + humidity 86-445°F
(30-230°C)
Medium broiler output, combined
with steam, guarantees that a crust
is formed with simultaneous all-
round heating. For bakes and
gratins.
Broil level 2 + humidity 86-445°F
(30-230°C)
High broiler output, combined with
steam, guarantees that a crust is
formed with simultaneous all-round
heating. For stuffed vegetables
and poultry.
Sous-vide cooking 122-204°F
(50-95°C)
Highly precise steaming of
vacuum-packed meals in the
temperature range of 120-200°F
(50-95°C). Nutrients and flavor are
perfectly preserved. For meat, fish,
vegetables, and desserts. The
cooking temperature should only
be 2-4°F (1-2°C) above the target
core temperature. As a result, the
cooking time is relatively long and,
at the same time, it is almost
impossible to over-cook the food.
Meat and vegetables can be briefly
seared after sous-vide cooking; it
is preferable to sear fish before
cooking it. With , you must pay
attention to special food hygiene.
background
en-us Familiarizing yourself with your appliance
16
Symbols Function/type of heating Temperature/setting Use
Low-temperature cooking 86-194°F
(30-90°C)
With this cooking method, meat is
particularly soft and juicy, flavors
are retained and even
strengthened. Only season
sparingly. Sear the meat briefly on
all sides at a high heat in the frying
pan before cooking it. This gives
the meat a crust, which prevents
the meat juices from escaping and
produces the kind of flavor
characteristic of a roast. The
cooking temperature should only
be 50-60°F (10-15°C) above the
target core temperature. The more
the interior temperature is reduced,
the longer the cooking process
takes. You can do this to control
the cooking time end.
Dough proofing 86-122°F
(30-50°C)
Optimal climate at which the dough
rises quickly without drying out.
For yeast dough and sourdough.
Keeping warm 122-194°F
(50-90°C)
Optimal climate for keeping food
warm without it drying out.
Defrosting 104-140°F
(40-60°C)
Optimal climate for gently
defrosting frozen food without it
drying out. For roasts, fish,
vegetables.
Reheating 140-355°F
(60-180°C)
For gently reheating cooked food.
The steam ensures that the food
does not dry out.
Misting Steam is let into the cooking
compartment in order to increase
the moisture.
Condensation function The steam is condensed by cold
water so that only a little steam
escapes when the door is opened.
The function can be used at
temperatures up to 266°F
(130°C).
Add broiler The broiler is switched on for a few
minutes in order to additionally
brown the food. The function can
be used at temperatures from
300°F (150°C)
4.7 Low power mode display
The appliance has different displays in low power mode.
The displays depend on whether or not the appliance

The following overview only contains standard dishes for
test purposes.
18.1 General cooking tips
Take note of the following information when cooking all
types of food.
¡ The cooking times specified are intended as a guide.
The actual cooking time depends on the quality and
temperature of the food before cooking, as well as its
weight and thickness.
¡ The values given refer to average quantities for 4
people. If you want to prepare a larger amount, expect a
longer cooking time.
¡ Use the cookware specified. If you use other cookware,
cooking times may be longer or shorter.
¡ Always use plates, baking tins or ovenproof dishes with
the wire rack.
¡ If you have not made a particular dish before, start with
the shortest specified time. If required, you can continue
to cook the food.
¡ Open the oven cavity door on the preheated oven for a
short time only and quickly place your food inside the
appliance.
¡ When steaming, defrosting, dough proving and
reheating, you can use up to 3 shelf levels at a time
(shelf levels 1, 2 and 3). This will not cause flavor to
transfer. You can therefore cook fish, vegetables and
desserts at the same time. The specified cooking times
may need to be extended for large quantities of food.
¡ If you are only baking on one level, use level 2. If you
are baking on two levels at the same time, use levels 1
and 3.
¡ Ensure that the food does not lie against the oven cavity
or the back panel.
¡ The appliance door must shut properly. Keep the seal
surfaces clean at all times.
¡ To ensure optimal steam circulation, do not position the
racks and containers too closely.
¡ When cooking very cold foods and when cooking at
high temperatures, the cooking container may deform.
This deformation does not impair its performance.
When the cooking container cools down again, it returns
to its original shape.
¡ If the appliance is above 210°F (100°C), allow the
appliance to cool down before steaming. Otherwise, the
high temperature causes the food to dry out.
¡ When steaming at temperatures up to 210°F (100°C),
no preheating is necessary. Place the food in the cold
oven cavity and then switch on the appliance.
¡ The estimated cooking time starts as soon as the
cooking compartment reaches the selected
temperature.
¡ Always preheat the appliance. This will produce the
best cooking results. The cooking times specified refer
to a preheated appliance.
18.2 Sous-vide cooking
When sous-vide cooking, you cook the food under a
vacuum at low temperatures between 120-200°F
(50-95°C) and at 100% steam.
WARNING
Due to the low sous-vide cooking cooking temperatures,
there is a risk to health if you do not follow the instructions
for use and hygiene instructions below.
Use only fresh, good-quality food.
Wash and disinfect your hands. Use disposable gloves
or grill tongs.
Take extra care when preparing critical food, such as
poultry, eggs and fish.
Always thoroughly rinse and/or peel fruit and vegetables
where necessary.
Always keep countertops and chopping boards clean.
Use different chopping boards for different types of
food.
Maintain the cold chain. Only interrupt the cold chain
briefly to prepare the food. Store vacuum-sealed food
back in the refrigerator until it is ready to be cooked.
The food is suitable for immediate consumption only.
Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately. Do
not store it after cooking. Do not store the food in the
refrigerator either. The food is not suitable for reheating.
¡ Sous-vide cooking is a gentle, low-fat method of
cooking meat, fish, vegetables and desserts. A vacuum-
sealing machine uses heat to hermetically seal the food
in a special heat-resistant cooking bag.
¡ The protective envelope retains the nutrients and
flavors. The low temperatures and the direct heat
transfer help you to achieve precisely controlled cooking
in order to achieve the desired cooking results. It is
almost impossible to overcook the food.
¡ Use the portion sizes listed in the cooking table. For
larger quantities and items, adjust the cooking time
accordingly. The portions given for fish, meat and
poultry correspond to a single serving. The portions
specified for vegetables and desserts correspond to
servings for 4 people.
¡ You can cook on up to two levels. Slide the cooking
containers in at levels 1and 3 to achieve the best
cooking results. If you are cooking on just one level, use
level 2.
¡ When using the sous-vide cooking method, only use
heat-resistant vacuum-pack bags designed for this
purpose. Do not cook the food in the vacuum-sealing
bag in which you bought the food, e.g. portioned fish.
These bags are not suitable for sous-vide cooking.
background
Transportation, storage and disposal en-us
55
¡ To ensure an even transfer of heat and a perfect
cooking result, use a chamber vacuum-sealing machine
that can create a 99% vacuum when vacuum-sealing
food.
¡ With the "Sous-vide cooking" type of heating, it is not
possible to postpone the end of the cooking time for
hygiene reasons.
Vacuum-sealing
When vacuum-sealing, heat-seal the food in a special
plastic bag so that it is airtight.
Note the following points when vacuum-sealing:
¡ There is no/hardly any air in the vacuum-sealing bag.
¡ The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed.
¡ The vacuum-sealing bag has no holes in it. Do not use
a core temperature probe.
¡ Pieces of meat or fish that have been vacuum-sealed
together are not pressed directly against one another.
¡ You have vacuum-sealed vegetables and desserts as
flat as possible.
Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum in the
bag is intact.
If in doubt, place the food into a new bag and vacuum-seal
it again. Vacuum-seal food no more than one day before
the cooking process. This is the only way to prevent the
escape of gases from the food (e.g. from vegetables)
which inhibit the transfer of heat, or to prevent the texture
of the food from changing, and thus altering how it cooks,
as a result of the vacuum pressure.
Quality of the food
The quality of the cooking result is 100% influenced by the
quality of the ingredients you use.
Use only fresh, top-quality food. This is the only way to
guarantee a consistent cooking result that delivers
impeccable flavor.
Preparation
Sous-vide cooking prevents flavors from escaping,
intensifying the food's natural flavor. Note that the usual
quantities of seasoning and condiments, such as herbs,
spices and garlic, will have a much greater effect on the
flavor. Start off by halving the quantities you usually use.
If the ingredients are of high quality, it is often sufficient to
enclose them in the bag with just a small knob of butter
and a little salt and pepper. Generally, the fact that the
food's natural flavors intensify during cooking is sufficient
on its own to produce a flavorful cooking result.
Do not place the vacuum-sealed food items on top of one
another or too close together in the cooking containers. To
ensure even heat distribution, make sure that you do not
touch the food. If you have more than one vacuum-sealing
bag, cook on two levels.
Remove the vacuum-sealing bags with care after cooking,
as hot water accumulates on the bags. Place the
unperforated cooking container into the oven cavity at the
level below the perforated cooking container containing
the hot food.
Dry the outside of the bag, place it into a clean,
unperforated cooking container and cut it open with
scissors. Place all of the food, along with its juices, into the
cooking container.
The food can be finished off as follows once the sous-vide
cooking stage is complete:
¡ Vegetables: Flash fry in a frying pan or on the teppan
yaki to give them the flavors you would expect from
frying. In doing so, you can effortlessly season the
vegetables or mix them with other ingredients without
the vegetables cooling down.
¡ Fish: Season and coat with hot butter. Since many
types of fish fall apart easily after cooking using the
sous-vide method, if you want to flash fry fish, this
should be done before the sous-vide cooking stage. Fry
the food for longer if has not been sufficiently well
cooked during the sous-vide cooking stage.
¡ Meat: Flash fry at a very high temperature for a few
seconds only on each side. This gives the meat a nice
crust and the flavors you would expect from frying,
without overcooking it. You can achieve a particularly
good result using a teppan yaki or under the grill.
Note:Dab the meat with a dish towel before placing it into
hot oil, in order to avoid fat spitting out of the pan.
Serve the food on pre-heated plates and, if possible, with
a hot sauce or butter as sous-vide cooking takes place at
relatively low temperatures.
18.3 Preparing bulky food
Recommendation for preparing bulky food.
¡ To prepare bulky food items, you can remove the shelf
supports at both sides.
¡ To do this, undo the knurled nuts at the front of the shelf
supports, and pull the shelf supports out towards the
front.
¡ Place the rack directly onto the bottom of the cooking
compartment and place the food or roaster onto the
rack. Do not place the food or roaster directly onto the
bottom of the oven cavity. If required, remove the shelf
supports. →

lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This
cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor,
“As Is”, or “B” stock appliances.
22.3 Repair/replace as your exclusive
remedy
During this warranty period, Gaggenau or one of its
authorized service providers will repair your Product
without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated
herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured
with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable
attempts to repair the Product have been made without
success, then Gaggenau will replace your Product
(upgraded models may be available to you, in Gaggenau's
sole discretion, for an additional charge). Nothing in this
warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be
replaced with parts of a different type or design than the
original parts. All removed parts and components shall
become the property of Gaggenau at its sole option. All
replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of
the original part for purposes of this warranty and this
warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts.
Gaggenau's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to
repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a
Gaggenau authorized service provider during normal
business hours. For safety and property damage
concerns, Gaggenau highly recommends that you do not
attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use a non-
authorized service provider; Gaggenau will have no
responsibility or liability for damage resulting from repairs
or work performed by a non-authorized service provider.
Authorized service providers are those persons or
companies that have been specially trained on Gaggenau
products, and who possess, in Gaggenau's opinion, a
superior reputation for customer service and technical
ability (note that they are independent entities and are not
agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of
Gaggenau). Nevertheless, taking your product to be
serviced by a repair shop that is not affiliated with or an
authorized dealer of Gaggenau will not void this warranty.
Also, using third-party parts will not void this warranty.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gaggenau will not incur
any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is
located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an
authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible,
hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale,
surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you
request, Gaggenau would still pay for labor and parts and
ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider,
but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any
travel time or other special charges by the service
company, assuming they agree to make the service call.
Further, to the extent you have installed the Product in a
difficult-to-access location or have otherwise installed
temporary or permanent fixtures that create barriers to
accessing or removing the Product, Gaggenau will not
incur any liability for, or have responsibility, for work or
