It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel. Items not suitable for use in the microwave oven: metal containers, aluminum foil, cutlery, dishware with metal decoration, crystal glass containing lead, bowls with a knurled rim, non-temperature safe plastic dishware, wooden dishware, metal clips, wire twist ties, food containers with metal coverings or residues of it. Danger of machine damage and fire hazard. The provided combi rack is specially designed for the wavelength of the microwaves and use for the oven. Do not leave the appliance unattended when heating food in disposable, e.g. plastic, paper, combustible materials. See "Dishware for Microwave / Plastics". Do not heat food in the oven in a heat retaining packaging, e.g. take out food bags. The packaging contains a thin layer of aluminum foil which reflects the microwaves. This reflected energy can cause the paper layer to ignite. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Before serving food remember to allow a sufficient standing time. Always check the temperature of the food itself after taking it out of the microwave. Do not judge by the plate temperature. The heat is created in the food, the dishes may stay cool to the touch. Always check the temperature before serving heated baby food. After heating the baby food, stir or shake the food, then test it. To check on the food temperature open the oven door. Use a special food thermometer to measure the food temperature. Do not use thermometers containing mercury or liquids since they are not suitable for high temperatures and break easily. Never cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers or bottles. Remove the nipple or cap from baby bottles before heating it in the microwave. Built-up pressure may cause them to burst. Danger of injuries. The combi rack will get hot when used in the microwave. Danger of burns. When heating liquids, the provided boiling wand should be placed into the container. When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc., in the oven without the boiling wand, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly. This ‘boiling delay" can cause a sudden build up of steam bubbles, when the container is removed from the oven or shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and explosively. Danger of burning! The built-up pressure may force the oven door open. This could result in injury or damage. The boiling wand ensures that the liquid boils evenly and that steam bubbles form at an early stage. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Eggs can only be cooked in their shells in the microwave oven in a specially designed egg-boiling device. Hard-boiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven. The eggs may burst, even when they have been removed from the oven. Eggs can be cooked without their shells in the microwave oven only if the yolk membrane has been punctured first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode. Danger of injuries. Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausages and potatoes should be pierced or the skin cut in several places before cooking to allow steam to vent and prevent the food from bursting. Do not use dishware with hollow handles or lid knobs. Moisture can get into the hollow parts. (The hollow parts of some dishware can be vented.) Danger of built-up pressure and the explosion of the hollow parts may cause injuries. Traditional functions: Convection Plus, Auto Roast, Broil, Convection broil Caution! Danger of burns! When using traditional functions the oven interior gets very hot. Do not allow children to touch or to play in, on or near the oven when it is in operation. The oven gets hot at the oven door glass, the vapor vent, the handle and the operating controls. Danger of burns. Use pot holders when working with a hot appliance. Especially the upper heating element gets extremely hot when using the functions broil and convection broil. Danger of burning! Allow the heating element to cool to the touch before attempting to lower it for cleaning the oven. Danger of burns. Do not use force to lower the upper heating element. It may get damaged.

Automatic Safety Shut Off An operation with traditional function can be started without a time set. To prevent a run-on operation and fires, the oven shuts off automatically depending on the function used and the temperature between 1 hour and 10 hours after the last operation. When the microwave was turned off after one operation but bull be used for a second cooking process right away, the microwave power eill only be turned on again after 30 seconds. ^ Start the second process after 30 seconds. 14 Interior light turned off The interior light can be set to turn off after the process starts. Functions Microwave function Microwave cooking offers the benefits of speed, convenience and nutritional advantages when food does not require browning or crisping. The following microwave power settings are available: – At an electrical connection of 240V: 80 W, 150 W, 300 W, 450 W, 600 W, 850 W und 1000 W. – At an electrical connection of 208 V: 80 W, 150 W, 300 W, 450 W, 600 W und 850 W. The microwaves penetrate through the container directly into the food. All food contains moisture molecules which, when subjected to microwave energy, start to oscillate 2.5 billion times a second. The friction caused by this vibration creates heat, which first starts developing around the outside of the food and then slowly penetrates towards the center. The moisture content of food will affect the speed at which it is cooked. As heat is produced directly in the food, They are shown in a bar. The full bar shows the maximum power. If only two segments are shown the minimum power is displayed. – food can generally be cooked without adding much liquid or cooking oil. How it works – defrosting, reheating and cooking in a microwave oven is quicker than using traditional oven methods. In a microwave oven there is a high-frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. The microwaves are evenly distributed in the onven interior and are also reflected from the metal walls. The microwaves reach from all sides on and into the food. The cookware must be conductable for microwaves so they can reach the food. The microwaves conduct porcelain, glass, carton, plastic but no metal. Do not use containers made of metal, or which contain metal, for example in the form of gold or silver trim, see "Suitable cookware for microwave ovens". The metal reflects the microwaves and this could lead to sparks. The microwaves cannot be absorbed. – nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, are generally retained. – color, texture and taste of food are not impaired. The microwave procuction is stopped once the process is interrupted or the door is opened. During the process the closed, intakt door provides a sufficient protection of microwaves. 15 Functions Traditional oven functions Auto Roast – Convection Bake Auto Roast heats the oven to a high temperature to sear the meat, retaining moisture and tenderness. The oven temperature then automatically returns to the preselected setting. – Auto Roast – Broil – Convection Broil – Defrost Broil These cook and brown the food. As the element needs to radiate a high heat in order to cook the food, it will glow red hot several minutes after being turned on and produce sufficient infra-red heat for broiling. Pre-heat the oven with the oven door closed for approx. 5 minutes before starting to cook. Convection Bake This system works by the circulation of heated air. It takes in the air, heats it over a ring heating element and fans it back through the openings in the back panel. Since the heat reaches the food immediately, there is no need to preheat the oven. Execption: Preheat the oven when roasting roast beef / tenderloin or when baking dark bread. The Convection Plus function allows to bake on two levels at the same time. Convection Broil The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by the fan on the rear wall of the oven. This allows a lower temperature to be selected than for normal broiling. Defrost The warm air is distributed over the food by the fan on the rear wall of the oven. 16 Functions Combination functions Master Chef – Combination Bake The "Master Chef" function contains an easy to use list of preset functions of commonly cooked foods such as pizza, chicken and french fries. – Combinaton Auto Roast – Combination Broil – Micro Broil The combination functions allow a fast heating, cooking and browing of food. The microwave function can be combined with all traditional functions. The combination with Convection Plus is the most suitable. Since the heat gets immediately to the food, the time and energy efficiency is greatest. In general when using combination programs, you should not set the microwave power level higher than 150 W for baking, and not higher than 450 W for cooking and broiling. They are shown in a bar. The full bar shows the maximum power of 450 W. If only three segments are shown the minimum power (80 W) is displayed. 17 Controls The oven has a large display and sensor controls. These sensors allow the operation of the oven. Touch controls Next to and below the display are electronic sensor controls which react to the touch of a finger. The oven is operated by the touch of the respective sensor control. Every touch of the controls is confirmed by a tone. When the oven is turned on the display shows the allocation of the controls.

If the food is set directlly on the oven bottom it will not defrost/cooked/heated evenly since the microwaves can’t reach the food from below. Set the food, bowls, plates, etc. in the middle of the glass tray. – are reflected by metal, Material and shape The material and shape of containers used affect cooking results and times. Circular and oval containers work best. The food will heated more evenly that in square container. Metal – pass through glass and chinaware, Do not use metal containers, aluminum foil, cutlery and dishes with metal decor for microwaving. The metal reflects the microwaves which can damage the microwave oven. – are absorbed by the food. 36 Selecting cookware for microwave ovens Exceptions: Glassware – Pre-cooked meals in aluminium foil containers can be defrosted and reheated in the microwave oven. Important: Remove the lid before heating the food. The food is heated only from above. To heat the food evenly place it in a container suitable for microwaving. Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass are ideal for use in the microwave oven. – For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of aluminium foil may be used to mask wing-tips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the process. Make sure that the aluminium foil is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls. – Metal meat skewers or clamps should only be used if they are very small in comparison to the size of the cut of meat. Crystal glass contains lead and glass bowls with a waved rim could cause the glass to crack. Both are unsuitable. Porcelain (chinaware) Porcelain (chinaware) is a suitable material. Do not use porcelain with gold or silver edging or items with hollow knobs or handles, as insufficient ventilation may cause pressure. Earthenware Decorated earthenware is only suitable if the decoration is beneath an all-over glaze. Earthenware can get very hot, and may crack. Glazes and colors The enclosed combi rack is suitable for microwaving. Do not set it on the interior bottom. Some glazes and colors contain metallic substances. They are not suitable for the microwave. The combi rack gets hot. 37 Selecting cookware for microwave ovens Plastics Use plastic dishes only for Microwave - Solo. Plastics must be heat-resistant up to 230 °F (110 °C). The plastics might melt into the food. Special plastic utensils, designed for use in microwave ovens are available from retail outlets. Plastic dishes made from melamine is not suitable. It gets hot during cooking. When purchasing plasticware, make sure that it is suitable for use in a microwave oven. Disposable containers, such as trays made from styrofoam, can only be used for very short timed warming and reheating of food. Roasting bags and -tubes can be used. Roasting tubes should be about 15 inches (40 cm) longer and roasting bags about 7 inches (20 cm) longer than the food being roasted, and carefully tied with string. Turn the ends over and secure them. Holes should be pierced according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Do not use metal clips or wire ties, even if bound by paper. Fire hazard! Wood Wooden containers are not suitable. The water from the wood evaporizes during the cooking process. The wood dries out and cracks. Disposable containers Plastic boiling bags can be used for cooking and re-heating. They should be pierced beforehand so that steam can escape. This prevents a build-up of pressure and reduces the risk of the bag bursting. Only those plastic disposable containers specified under "Plastics" are suitable for use in a microwave oven. Do not leave the oven unattended when re-heating or cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other inflammable material. Disposable containers are not always recyclable or degradable. 38 Selecting cookware for microwave ovens Testing dishes If in doubt as to whether glass, earthenware or china plates or dishes are suitable for use in a microwave oven, a simple test can be performed: ^ Set the empty cookware onto the middle of the glass tray on the first runner from below. ^ Close the door. A microwave oven process cannot be started until the door is closed. ^ Press the On/Off touch control for the main menu. ^ Select the Microwave function. If a crackling noise is heard accompanied by sparks during the test, turn the oven off immediately. Press the On/Off touch control. Any cookware which causes this reaction is unsuitable for use in the microwave oven. If in doubt about the suitability of containers, please contact the supplier. This test cannot be used to check whether items with hollow knobs or handles are suitable for use in a microwave oven. The highest microwave setting (1000 W) is highlighted. ^ Confirm with "OK". ^ Set a duration of 30 seconds and confrim with "OK". 39 Selecting cookware for microwave ovens Covering the food A cover – prevents too much steam escaping, especially when cooking foods which need longer to cook, such as potatoes. – shortens and evens out the cooking process. – avoids a dry up of the food. – prevents any loss of aroma. – prevents soiling of the oven interior. Do not heat food in closed containers like baby food glass container. Open the container before heating. Do not use a lid or cover if – cooking meals which are to be given a crisp finish, cooking breaded or battered foods – cooking food with a crisp finish, i.e. toast. – a combination function is selected. Use the cover only for Microwave-Solo. The plastics is only heat-resistant up to 230 °F (110 °C). Higher temperatures (Broiling, Convection Plus, etc.) can cause the cover to melt into the food. The cover should not seal the container. Smaller container diameters prevent the steam from escaping. The cover might melt. Cover the food for microwaving with a glass or plastic lid suitable for microwave ovens. They are available in retail stores. Plastic wrap suitable for microwaving can be used. Unsuitable clingfilm can melt into the food. 40 Defrosting The microwave defrosts food gentle and fast. Hints for defrosting with the Automatic program: The following microwave settings are recommended for defrosting: If defrosting larger food amounts which contains of smaller portions, set a lower overall weight as if for a large compact piece. The food will defrost more evenly. Example: 4 lbs meat portioned to 4 packages a 1 lbs 3 lbs instead of 4 lbs – 80 W Defrosting delicate food such as heavy cream, butter, cream cake, cheese. – 150 W defrosting all other foods. The respective automatic programs are ideal for defrosting. See the table on the following page for more information. ^ Take the frozen food from the packaging and put it in microwave suitable cookware. ^ Set the cookware onto the middle of the glass tray on the first runner from the bottom. Turn, stir or separate the food about half-way through the defrosting time. When using the Automatic program a tone sound and a hint is displayed as a reminder. After defrosting Allow the food to stand at room temperature long enough to distribute the heat evenly throughout the food. When defrosing larger amounts of food, i.e. 4 lbs (2 kg) fish, the glass tray can be used as a defrosting container in the first runner from the bottom. 41 Defrosting Table for Defrosting food Microwave power settings Amount 150 W 80 W Adjusting time at room temperature1) in minutes Time in minutes Time in minutes 250 ml (125 °C) 250 g (125 °C) 250 g (125 °C) 500 ml (125 °C) 250 g (125 °C) – – – 14 – 16 10 – 12 13 – 17 8 – 10 6–8 – – 10 – 15 5 – 10 10 – 15 10 – 15 10 – 15 1 piece approx. 3.5 oz (100 g) 10 oz (300 g) 3 piece approx. 10 oz (300 g) 3 piece approx. 10 oz (300 g) 1 piece approx. 3.5 oz (100 g) 3 piece approx. 10 oz (300 g) 4 pieces 1–2 – 5 – 10 4–6 6–8 – – 5 – 10 10 – 15 5–7 – 5 – 10 – 1.5 5 – 10 – 4 – 4.5 5 – 10 6–8 – 5 – 10 – – – 10 – 15 – – – 10 – 15 – – – 10 – 15 Dairy products Heavy cream Butter Cheese slices Milk Quark Cake / Cookies / Bread Pound cake Pound cake Fruit cake Butter cake Cream cake Yeast cookies, danish cookies Meat 2) Poultry 2) Fish2) 2) – – – 10 – 15 Fruit 2) – – – 5 – 10 Stew 2) – – – 10 – 15 Soup 2) – – – 10 – 15 – – – 5 – 10 – – – 5 – 10 Vegetables Bread 2) Complete meals 2) 1) The temperature distributes evenly in the food during this time. 2) Use the respective Automatic program.

To heat select – for drinks a setting of 1000 W, – for food a setting of 600 to 850 W. – for baby food a setting of 450 W. Take care that the baby food is at eating temperature when served. Heat baby food only for 30 seconds to 1 minute on 450 Watt. The respective automatic programs are ideal for reheating. Always use a lid or cover for re-heating food, except when a drier finish is needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat. Open glass containers before reheating food. Remove the lid of baby food glass containers. Remove the lid or nipple from baby bottles before heating. To heat a liquid insert the enclosed boiling wand into the container. Do not heat rehard boiled eggs, even without the shell, in the microwave oven. The eggs can burst. Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated. If in doubt that a sufficiently high temperature has been reached, continue reheating for a little longer. Stir the food halfway through the re-heating. When using the Automatic program a tone will sound as a reminder. Stir the outer portion to the middle since the rims are reheated faster. After re-heating Be careful when removing a dish from the oven. It may be hot. The cookware will not be heated by the microwave (exception: heat-resistant earthenware), but by the heat transfer of the food. Allow food to stand for a few minutes at room temperature once a programme has ended to allow heat to be distributed evenly. The temperatures are adjusted. After heating food, especially food for babies and small children, stir the food or shake the container and check that the temperature does not pose any danger. Double check after it has been left to stand. The time required depends on the food, its initial temperature and the amount to be cooked. Food taken straight from the refrigerator requires longer to reheat than food stored at room temperature. 43 Reheating Table for Re-heating food Drinks ** Microwave power settings Amount Coffee 140 - 149 °F (60 - 65 °C) Milk 140 - 149 °F (60 - 65 °C) WaterBoiling Baby bottle (milk) Mulled wine, Grog 140 - 149 °F (60 - 65 °C) 1000 W 450 W Time in minutes Time in minutes Adjusting time at room temperature 1) in minutes 1 cup,7 oz (200 ml) 0:50 – 1:10 – – 1 cup, 7 oz (200 ml) 1– 1:50*** – – – – 0:50 – 1*** – – 1 – 1:50 1 cup, 4 oz (125 ml) – approx. 39" (200 ml) 0:50 – 1:10 1 Glass 7 oz (200 ml) Food *** Microwave power settings Amount Baby food Meat **** Poultry **** Fish **** Vegetables **** Stew **** Soup **** Complete dish **** Wiener in 4 oz (250 ml) of water Pork shop, cooked Fish fillet, fried Potato pancakes Gravy 600 W 450 W Time in minutes Time in minutes Adjusting time at room temperature 1) in minutes 1 Glass, 7 oz – 0:30 – 1 – – – – – – – 3.5 oz (100 g) 7 oz (200 g) 7 oz (200 g) 9 oz (250 g) 9 oz (250 ml) – – – – – – – 3–4 3–5 3–4 3–5 4–5 – – – – – – – – – – – – 3–5 3–5 3–5 3–5 3–5 3–5 3–5 * The temperature distributes evenly in the food during this time. ** Insert the boiling wand in the container. *** The times are for the initial food temperature of 41 °F (5 °C). **** Use the respective Automatic program.

The combined functionis recommended for already cooked dishes, which are supposed to be gratinated and browned. Function Microwave Frozen meals can be defrosted and then re-heated or cooked. Consult the manufacturer’s instructions. Combination functions The function Microwave + Broil is recommended for frozen meals which require browning. Select a microwave power setting of 450 W. The oven automatically sets a default broiling temperature which cannot be changed. Insert the frozen meal in a heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware and set it on the glass tray. Set the glass tray in the second runner level. Do not cover the food. Frozen foods in an aluminum tray must be set directly on the glass tray. If the food is not sufficiently browened, set the aluminium tray on the combi rack and set it with the glass tray in the first runner level. Remove the food from its packaging and place in a covered microwave-safe dish for defrosting and re-heating or cooking. Soups and vegetables should be stirred several times during the process. Separate slices of meat half-way through the program. Turn pieces of meat and fish at the half-way stage. Frozen meals in cardboard trays which, according to manufacturer’s instructions are suitable for use in a traditional oven, are microwave-safe. 49 Broiling To broil use the functions Broil, Convection broil and the combi functions Microwave + Broil and Microwave + Convection Broil. The function Broil is designed for flat food like pork chops, steak, burgers, toast and grilled toasts. The function Convection Broil is designed for broiling food with a larger diameter like shish kebab, roasts and poultry. The combined functions allow an additonal microwave power setting of 450 W over the total broiling time. Preparing the food for broiling Rinse meat with cold flowing water and pad dry. Do not salt slices of meat. Lean meat can be basted with oil. Other fats tend to become dark or smoke. Chicken can be basted with butter. Clean and salt flat fish and fish slices as usual and sprinkle with lemon juice. Broiling Broiling is done with a fixed setting. There is no temperature setting possible. Before broiling, preheat the broiling heating element for 5 minutes with the door closed. Do not add the Microwave function. To broil baste the combi rack with oil and place the food on it. The slices should be evenly thick so that the broiling time is the same. Insert the glass tray with the combi rack depending on the food in the second or third runner level. The rack can be used depending on the food height to allow an optimum distance to the upper heating element. Turn broil good at the half-way stage. Convection Broil Usually the first level runner from the bottom is suited best. When in doubt insert the rack here. To increase the ventilation below the food, the rack should be turned upside down. The second runner level can be selected for very flat food. Testing the food To test how far the food is cooked, press down with a spoon. – If it is very elastic, it is rare. – If it is slightly elastic, it is medium. – If it is not elastic at all, it is well done. 50 Broiling Table for Broiling Preheat the broiling heat element for 5 minutes.

The data are all appoximate. 51 Roasting To roast use – the function Auto Roast, – the combination function Microwave + Auto Roast Meat and Poultry will brown with the Auto Roast function. The roasting time is shortend when the combined functions are selected. The combination function is not suitable for roast beef and tenderloin. The meat will be cooked before it gets brown. Do not preheat the oven. Exeption: Pre-heat the oven to the temperature recommended in the recipe when cooking roast beef or tenderloin. Roasting in a closed pot is the most suitable because: – The moisture is retained and the meat stays tender. – The oven interior stays cleaner as with broilin on the combi rack. – There will be enough stock to cook gravy. Take the lid off after half of the roasting time to allow the meat to brown. Auto Roast Insert the glass tray with the combi rack on the first runner level. Suitable cookware: Casserole, Roasting tray, heat resistant glass casserole, earthen cookware. The cookware must have heat-resistant handles. 52 Set the cookware direktly on the glass tray. The roasting time depends on the type, size and thickness of the meat. How to determine the roasting time: Hight of the roast x times per centimeter (see table for the respective meat) Meat Time per centimeter height Beef / Game 15 – 18 Min. Pork / Veal / Lamb 12 -15 Min. Roast beef / Tenderloin 12 -15 Min. Example: Roast beef, 8 cm thick 8 x 15 min per cm = 120 min. roasting time The larger the cut of meat to be roasted, the lower the temperature that should be used. Set a 50 °F (10 °C) lower temperature for 6 lbs and higher. The roasting process will take a little longer, but the meat will be cooked evenly and the outside will become crisp. Roasting on the rack takes a 68 °F (20 °C) lower temperature that roasting in the pot. Turn the rack upside down on the glass tray. Use the specified roast temperatures. When the temperature is too high, the meat will brown but not cook. Roasting Microwave + Auto Roast Tips for roasting Insert the glass tray with the combi rack on the first runner level. Roasting in a covered pot Use only heat resistant cookware, but without a metal lid. Microwaves do not go through metal and will not reach the food. Season the meat and place in the pot. Add some butter, margarine or a little oil. Add about 1/2 cup of water when roasting a large cut of meat or roasting poultry with a high fat content. Using roasting foil – measure the foil 40 cm longer than the meat or poultry – Close it tightly with string. See "Suitable cookware for microwave ovens" When using Auto Roast set an additional microwave setting for the total roasting time. – For meat and fish a microwave setting of 300 W. The browning is done by the end of the roasting time. The meat gets an intensive browning, when the lid is taken off 15 - 20 minutes before the end of roasting. Roasting on the rack Add a little oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of bacon on top to help retain moisture. – Poultry a setting of 150 W. Do not add too much liquid during roasting. The browining of the meat will be hindert. After roasting Roasting poultry Take the food from the oven and wrap it in aluminum foil. Let it sit for 10 minutes. When carving the food, there will be less juice. For crispy skin, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking with salt water. Roasting deep frozen meat Deep frozen meat up to 3 lbs (1.5 kg) can be roasted in Auto Roast without defrosting. The roasting time will extend for about 20 minutes. 53 Using the roast probe The oven comes equipped with a roast probe. Using the roast probe The roast probe allows you to monitor the cooking temperatures. ^ Insert the roast probe completely into the food so that the tip reaches the core. The roast probe tip measures the core temperature of the meat. When the temperature is reached the oven heating is automatically turned off. The roast probe can be used during the following functions: – Auto Roast – Convection Plus – Microwave (Solo and Combination) ^ Prepare the meat. Poultry: Insert the roast probe tip in the thickest part of the breast. Please note The meat can be put in a pot or on the rack with the glass tray. When using broiling bags, insert the roast probe through the foil into the meat core. Fat and bones might impair the measuring and can cause the oven to turn off. Therefore the tip should not touch bones and should not be inserted at fatty parts of the meat. Select the higher core temperature in the roast table for meat with a high fat content. 54 Using the roast probe ^ Insert the food in the oven. Once the selected core temperature is reached: – the display shows "Finished". – a signal tone sounds. – the oven turns off automatically. – the cooling fan stays on. Note A delayed start is possible. ^ Plug the roast probe into the outlet until it clicks. ^ Close the appliance door. After roasting the meat, cover the food for about 10 minutes with aluminum foil. During this time the core temperature will rise by 41 - 50 °F (5 - 10 °C). ^ Select the desired function. Insert the roast probe in another part and repeat the process if The display shos the oven default temperature and the default core temperature. – the roast probe tip does not reach the meat core (at large cuts of meat). ^ If desired adjust the oven default temperature. ^ Select "Core temperature" and adjust. The core temperatured needed depends on the food to be cooked. See the roasting table for more information. – the meat is not cooked to your desire. The time for the temperature monitored roasting is comparable with the time at time depending roasting. The rising core temperatue can be monitored in the display during an ongoing cooking process. The cooking time results automatically. 55 Roasting Table for rasting food Auto Roast Microwave + Auto Roast Time in minutes Microwave power in W Temperatur in °F (°C) Time in minutes Core temper ature °C 170 – 190 100 – 120 300 180 70 – 80 85 – 90 190 – 210 35 – 45 – – – 3) 180 – 200 90 – 110 300 180 65 – 75 75 – 85 Pork roast approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) 170 – 190 100 – 120 300 180 70 – 80 80 – 85 Pork loin, cutletts approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) 170 – 190 60 – 80 300 180 45 – 55 70 – 75 Smoked pork chop approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) 170 – 190 60 – 70 300 180 40 – 50 75 – 80 Meat loaf approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) 160 – 180 60 – 70 300 180 35 – 40 75 – 80 Veal roast approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) 170 – 190 100 – 120 300 180 70 – 80 70 – 75 Leg of lamb approx. 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg) 170 – 190 90 – 120 300 180 70 – 80 80 – 85 Poultry 1.7 lb - 2.2 lbs (0.8 kg - 1 kg) 170 – 190 50 – 60 150 180 40 – 45 85 Poultry approx. 4.4 lbs (2 kg) 170 – 190 90 – 110 150 180 70 – 80 85 Poultry approx. 8.8 lbs (8 kg) 160 – 180 150 – 180 150 170 100 – 120 85 160 – 180 35 – 55 – – – 75 – 80 Temperature in °F (°C) 1) Roast beef approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) Tenderloin,Roast beef 2) approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) Game roast approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg) Fish, whole approx. 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg) 40 – 65 Times are for preheated oven. 1) Roating in a pot If roasted on the rack, set the temperature 68 °F (20 °C) lower. 2) Preheat the oven 3) rare 40 - 45, medium 50 - 55, well done 60 - 65 °C The data are all appoximate. 56 1) Baking To bake use Combination functions – function Convection Plus – the combination function Microwave + Convection Plus The function Convection Plus is suitable for cookies, sponge cakes, puff pastry, etc. The combined function is suitable to bake dough with a longer baking time like yeast or sponge dough. Function Convection Plus ^ Insert the glass tray with the cake form into the first level runner. Suitable bakeware: heat-restistant glass or ceramic so microwaves could get through the material. Metal cake forms reflect microwaves. Microwaves will reach the cake only from the top which will extend the baking time. Metal cake forms can lead to sparking. Set the form in the middle of the glass tray, so that the form does not touch the side walls. Bake cakes in a form on a first runner level from the bottom. Turn the rack upside down on the glass tray to ensure airflow for the convection. If sparking occurs, do not use the form for the combination function. When baking cookies or cakes on a cookie sheet, select the 2nd runner level from the bottom to get an even browning. Use the 2nd and 3rd level for baking several trays at the same time. Every heat-resistant material of bakeware is suitable. Shiny, thin pans are not recommended. Do not select a too long baking time. Cookies might dry up if baked too long. 57 Baking Do not use baking forms from paper coated with aluminum foil (for example from cake mixtures). This is a fire hazard. Set an additional microwave setting for the total baking time. The microwave power should not be more that 150 W. Tips for baking Regard the information about temperature, microwave power, runner levels and times given in the baking table. Different cake forms, dough portions and baking habits are considered. Set square cake forms horizontal in the oven. The heat will be distributed evenly in the cake form. The gently treatment of food serves your health. Cake, Pizza, French fries should be baked golden-yellow not dark brown. Tips for gentle cooking and even browning Cakes, cookies, deep frozen products such as french fries, frozen cakes, pizzas and baguettes are gently cooked and browned – if the lower temperature of the recipe/packaging info is selected. Select the temperature not higher that the recipe/packaging. Higher temperatures shorten the baking time, but will affect the browning degree. The food could not be fully cooked. – When the shortest baking time is elapsed, check if the food is done. Test cakes and cookies by sticking a toothpick in the dough. If no dough is sticking on the toothpick the food is done. – Line the cookie sheet with parchment paper when cooking greasy food like french fries. 58 Baking Table for baking Convection Plus Time Temperature in °F (°C)1) in minutes Microwave + Convection Plus Microwave power in W Temperatur Time in in °F (°C) minutes Sponge cake dough 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 55 – 70 25 – 35 60 – 70 45 – 50 35 – 45 55 – 65 25 – 30 20 – 30 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 160 – 180 160 – 180 160 – 180 30 – 35 25 – 30 20 – 25 – – – – – – – – – 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 150 – 170 25 – 30 40 – 50 20 – 30 45 – 55 60 – 70 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – Coffe cake (glass tray)1) Fruit pie (glass tray)1) Fruit cake White bread Brown bread Pizza (glass tray)1) Pastry with filling1) 150 – 170 160 – 180 150 – 170 160 – 180 140 – 160 170 – 190 150 – 170 35 – 45 40 – 50 55 – 65 40 – 50 150 – 180 40 – 50 25 – 30 – 150 – – – 150 – – 170 – – – 180 – – 35 – 40 – – – 30 – 40 – Choux pastry, Cream puffs 1) 160 – 180 30 – 40 – – – 180 – 200 20 – 25 – – – 120 – 140 35 – 45 – – – Pound cake Muffins1) Marble cake (form) Fruit pies with meringue1) Fruit pie (glass tray)1) Fruit pie (form) Shortcake Cookies1) Shortcake dough Tart Shortcake Roll 1) Bread dough Shortcake Coffee cake (glass tray)1) Cookies1) Apple pie Apricot cake Yeast dough Puff pastry 1) Egg white sweets, macaroons1) Times are for preheated oven.

Never use metal brackets. Sparking can occur. – Canning jars – only for Convection Plus: Jars with screw caps Only use special jars for canning. They are available in retail stores. Cans are not suitable for canning. High pressure in the cans can cause them to burst. This could result in injury or damage. Prepare the jars as usual. Fill them up to 1" below the rim. ^ Set the jars on the glass tray on the first runner from the bottom. 5 jars of 1 pint can be canned at a time. ^ Select a 850 W power setting and wait until evenly bubbling occurs. The time required depends on: – Original temperature of jar contents – number of jars. Duration until evenly bubbling occurs: 1 jar approx. 3 minutes 2 jars approx. 6 minutes 3 jars approx. 9 minutes 4 jars approx. 12 minutes 5 jars approx. 15 minutes. This time is sufficient for fruit. When canning vegetables, reduce the microwave power to 450 W when bubbling starts and cook – carrots approx. 15 minutes. – peas approx. 25 minutes. 60 Canning Function Convection Plus When bubbling occurs Fruit ^ Continue canning for 25 - 30 minutes but use the residual heat. ^ Leave the selected function but select the lowest temperature. ^ Set the jars on the glass tray and insert it on the first runner level. ^ Select a temperature of 302 - 338 °F (150-170 °C). This temperature setting is valid until bubbling occurs. Five 1 pint jars need about 30-40 minutes before bubbling occurs. This ensures that the cooling fan continues to work and no moisture is collected in the oven interior. Vegetables ^ Lower the temperature to 212 °F (100 °C) and continue to cook the vegetables: Asparagus, carrots for 60 - 90 minutes Peas for 90 - 120 minutes ^ Lower the temperature but keep the function. After canning ^ Remove the jars from the oven and let them sit for 24 hours covered with a dish towel. ^ Remove the brackets or the tape and check if all jars are tightly closed. 61 Cleaning and Care Interior, door inside The interior and the door inside are hot after use. Danger of burns! Let the oven cool and clean the interior, the door inside and the gasket. Clean the oven after every use, accumulated soiling makes cleaning more difficult and could lead to damages of the appliance. Check the door and door seal at regular intervals for any sign of damage. Do not use the Microwave function if the door or gasket is damaged. Call the Technical Service. The interior is made of stainless steel. Due to the high temperatures in the traditional functions the stainless steel can darken. Clean the interior, the door inside and the door gasket with a sponge and a solution of warm water and non abrasive liquid detergent. Dry with a soft cloth. 62 Hard to clean soiling: Heat a glass of water 2 - 3 minutes in the oven until the water boils. The steam condenses at the interior walls and soaks the soiling. Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or steel wool on any part of the oven. They will damage the surfaces. When using caustic (oven) cleaners read the instructions of the manufacturer and do not spray it in the openings. Avoid too much water as this could penetrate the openings. To neutralize odors in the microwave put a cup of water with some lemon juice in the oven and simmer for a few minutes. Soiling such as spilt juices and cake mixtures are best removed while the oven or tray is still warm. Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting discoloration of the surfaces. Cleaning and Care Interior ceiling Appliance front To clean the interior ceiling, the upper heating element can be lowered. ^ All external surfces and controls can be cleaned with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a sponge. Wait for the upper heating element to cool to the touch before lowering it. Danger of burns. ^ Dry with a soft cloth. Glass surfaces Glass surfaces are not scratch-proof. Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool or oven cleaners on glass surfaces. They will damage them. Stainless steel ^ Unscrew the nut and lower the upper heating element. Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner for stainless steel can also be used. Apply sparingly with even pressure. ^ Lower the upper heating element. Do not use force! It might get damaged. ^ After cleaning move the upper heating element in its original position. Tighten the nut. 63 Cleaning and Care Oven accessories Combi rack The rack should be washed and dried after each use. It is easier to clean if you soak it in a solution of hot water and dishwashing detergent. Remove stubborn soils with a stainless steel cleaner. Glass tray Clean the glass tray in the dishwasher or wash it by hand. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, they will damage the surface. Boiling wand The boiling wand can be washed in a dishwasher. Roast probe Clean the roast probe only with a damp cloth. Do immerse the roast probe in water and do not wash it in the dishwasher. The roast probe will get damaged. 64 Frequently asked questions What if the oven does not heat? Installation work and repairs should only be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with all applicable national and local codes and standards.
