Before Using the Oven

Because the oven temperature cycles, an oven thermometer placed in the oven cavity may not show the same temperature that is set on the oven.The heating turns off if the door is open during operating. The heat turns back on automatically once the door is closed.Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.After connecting the appliance to the power or following a power cut, the colon in times flashing.To clear the flashing time, press any button and reset the clock if needed.Before using the appliance to prepare food for the first time, you must clean the cooking compartment and accessories.Clean the accessories by hand as is described in the Maintenance instructions.Ventilate the kitchen while the appliance is heating up.Make sure there are no remaining packing materials such as polystyrene pellets in the cooking chamber and remove any adhesive tape from inside or outside the appliance.Wipe the smooth surface of the cooking chamber with a soft, damp cloth before heating the appliance.To get rid of the smell of new products, heat them with the oven door closed when the cooking chamber is empty.Areas near the vent may become hot during operation and may cause burns. Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may distort or melt the plastic.It is normal for steam to be visible when cooking foods with high moisture content.Do not block the vent between the oven door and the controller.

Removing Rail Rack

Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.Pull the rail towards the other side to detach.Insert the rail holders to attach and refit the rails.

Using Standard Oven Racks

The racks have a turned-up back edge that prevents them from being accidentally pulled out of the oven cavity.Replace oven racks before turning the oven on to prevent burns.Do not cover the racks with aluminum foil, or any other material, or place anything on the bottom of the oven. Doing so will result in poor baking and may damage the oven bottom.Only arrange oven racks when the oven is cool.Pull the rack straight out until it stops.Lift up the front of the rack and pull it out.Place the end of the rack on the support.Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.

Using the Telescopic Runners

Install the telescopic runners before operating the oven for the first time.Allow the oven to cool before installing or removing the telescopic runners to prevent burns.Place a soft cloth on the floor to avoid damaging the parts. It is essential that the telescopic runners are fitted and secured correctly. Failing to do so could cause the runner and its contents to fall causing serious damage to the oven.The telescopic runners slide in and out on a frame. This keeps heavy cookware level and prevents it from sliding forward when the telescopic runner is completely extended.Make sure to slide the tray and wire grill in a correct position as the telescopic runner pins are inserted through the holes on both sides.Put the point A and B of the telescopic runners horizontally on the outer wire.Rotate the telescopic runners anti-clockwise(clockwise for right side) by 90 degrees.Push forward the telescopic runners, make the point C buckled onto the lower wire and the point D buckled onto the upper wire.Repeat steps 1-4 for the other telescopic runner to install on the other side.Allow the oven to cool before installing or removing the telescopic runners to prevent burns.Place a soft cloth on the floor to avoid damaging the parts. It is essential that the telescopic runners are fitted and secured correctly each time. Failing to do so cold cause the runner and its contents to fall causing serious damage to the oven.Lift up one end of the telescopic runners hard.Lift up the whole telescopic runners and remove backward.

Range(Default)7DescriptionHot Air *1*250-250(160)Hot Air mode uses only the heating element in the back wall and the convection fan. The recommended temperature is 160 °C. It is also possible to bake on more than one rack in Hot Air mode. This means that it is suitable for fruit cakes and stirred cake or yeast-dough, for example, a bread plait.Economic Hot Air*1 140-240(140) Economic Hot Air mode uses the optimised heating system to save energy while cooking food. The recommended temperature is 140 °C. In this mode, residual heat can be used to conserve energy. To avoid losing heat, always keep the door closed when cooking.Top Bottom Heat*1*2 30-250(180)In Top Bottom Heat mode, the upper and concealed lower heating elements are used. This operating mode is suitable for baking cakes, baking for a short time, and sensitive doughs. The recommended temperature is 180 °C.Roasting*1 50-250(180)In Roasting mode, the upper heating element and the convection fan are on. The recommended temperature is 180 °C. This function is suitable for large pieces of meat or poultry, such as rolled roast or turkey.Pizza Mode*1 50-250(180)In Pizza mode, the concealed heating element at the bottom of the oven cavity and the element in the back wall and convection fan are activated. The recommended temperature is 180 °C. When using pizza mode, the cooking time must vary depending on the type and thickness of the dough and topping.Fan Assisted Air*1*2 50-250(160)In addition to the Top Bottom (upper and concealed lower) heating elements, Fan Assisted Air mode uses the convection fan. This means that the roasting and baking temperature can be reduced by 20-40 °C. The recommended temperature is 160 °C. This mode is suitable for cakes and biscuits, as it is possible to bake on more than one rack at the same time.Large Grill150-250(180)Large Grill mode uses the entire grill heating element. The Large grill is suitable for cooking steaks, cutlets, fish or making toast, and for browning when cooking larger dishes with a gratin topping. The preset level is high. Always grill with the door closed.Bottom Heat*1 30-220(170)In Bottom Heat mode, only the concealed heating element in the oven floor is used. The recommended temperature is 170°C. This function is particularly suitable for finishing off cakes or pizzas on one of the lower oven rack positions.Air Fry150-250(220)The Air Fry function is specially designed for oil free frying.Defrost50In Defrost mode, only the fan is used without heating. The circulating air speeds up the defrosting process. Place the frozen food in a suitable container to trap the liquid produced during defrosting. Where appropriate, you can use the wire grill and a deep pan (or baking tray) to avoid soiling the oven. If water is allowed to run out into the oven, the door seal will be contaminated and an unpleasant odour may result.Proof30-45(40)Proof mode maintains a warm oven for rising yeast leavened products before baking. To avoid lowering the oven temperature and lengthening proofing time, do not open the oven door unnecessarily. Check bread products early to avoid over proofing. Do not use the proofing mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven temperature is not hot enough to keep foods at safe temperatures.Once the oven reaches the set temperature, Oven beep a tone sounds 5 times.This function can be used with the Rapid Preheat.

Baking

When baking, use the Hot Air or Top Bottom Heat modes.When baking in Top Bottom Heat modes, use baking tins with a dark metal or coated surface.When baking with Hot Air, you can also use baking tins with a bright metal surface.Always place cake tins in the middle of the tray or wire grill.When baking with Top Bottom Heat, you can place two baking tins side by side in the oven. This means that the baking time is only slightly longer.The Oven Rack Positions are numbered from the bottom up.When using Top Bottom Heat, you can bake on one rack only, for example on rack position C.When using Hot Air, you can bake sponge bases and biscuits on up to two baking trays at the same time, for example on rack position B and D.

Recommended Baking Guide

The baking guide contains the temperature settings, baking times and oven rack positions for a selection of typical dishes.Temperatures and baking times should be regarded as reference figures only. The actual values depend on the type of preparation, quality of ingredients and the baking tin in use.We recommend first selecting a lower temperature and then increasing it if necessary, for example if you want a higher degree of browning or the baking time is too long.If you cannot work out the settings for a specific recipe, simply use the settings for the most similar recipe.When baking cakes on baking trays or in tins on more than one rack, the baking time may be extended by 10-15 minutes.Foods with a high liquidity content (e.g. pizza, fruit cakes, etc.) should be baked on a single rack only.With cakes and baked items with different racks of dough, uneven browning may take place initially. In this case, do not alter the temperature setting. The degree of browning will even itself out over the baking process.For energy saving, use the residual heat before you finish cooking.Always count Rack Position from the bottom up.Rack: Rack PositionMenuCookware / Baking ShapeRackModeTemperature (℃)Preheating Time (minutes)Baking Time (minutes)Sponge CakeSquare form2170-501140-70Sponge Cake with fruitsRound form1150-50Tray1140-70Raisins Brioche Muffin (Yeast Cake)Muffin form22201911Gugelhupf (with Yeast)Tray11501160MuffinMuffin form11608301150830Apple Yeast CakeTray116010422150842Water Sponge Cake(6 Eggs)Springform1160941Water Sponge Cake(4 Eggs)Springform1160926Water sponge CakeSpringform1160-35Hefezopf (Callah)Tray2150-40Small Cakes (20 ea)Tray2150-36Small Cakes (40 ea)Tray2+41501034Butter Yeast CakeTray2150830ShortbreadTray2170813Shortbread (2 trays)Tray2+4160812Vanilla CookiesTray21608102+4150814White Bread (1 kg flour)Box11709501701245Fresh Pizza (thin)Tray2170921Fresh Pizza (thick)Tray21701045170841BreadTray1190930Results of BakingPossible CauseSolutionThe cake base is too lightWrong oven rack positionUse a dark baking tin or put the cake one rack lower down.Cake collapses(turns lumpy, soggy)Oven temperature too highSet the temperature slightly lower.Baking time too shortSet a longer baking time.

Hot Air / Economic Hot Air

If no cook time is set, the oven turns off automatically after 9 hours.The oven fan runs during the Hot Air cycle. The fan stops when the door is open. In some cases, the fan may shut off during the Hot Air cycle.Use Hot Air for faster and more even multiple-rack cooking of pastries, cookies, muffins, biscuits, and breads of all kinds.Bake cookies and biscuits on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.When using Hot Air with a single rack, place the wire grill in position C. If cooking on multiple racks, place the wire grill in positions B and D (for two racks).Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods.Cakes, cookies and muffins have better results when using multiple racks.When possible, do not preheat the oven before placing food inside.Only preheat if it is specified in the recipe.To maximize energy efficiency, do not open the door during cooking.Use dark black enameled tins that absorb heat particularly well.Remove unused accessories from the oven.

Grilling

Exposed parts of the oven can become hot during grilling. Keep children at a distance.Close the door to set the Grill function. If the door is opened during grilling, the grill heater turns off. Once the door is closed, the grill heater turns back on automatically.Due to the intense heat associated with grilling, it is normal to experience smoke during the cooking process. This smoke is a natural by product of searing and should not cause you to worry. If you are experiencing more smoke than you are comfortable with, use the following tips to reduce the amount of smoke in your oven.The wire grill should always be thoroughly cleaned and at room temperature at the beginning of cooking.ALWAYS run your cooktop ventilation system or vent hood during grilling to help expel smoke from the room.Keep the interior of your oven as clean as possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can burn or catch fire.Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both of these will increase the amount of smoke you experience. If you would like to use a glaze, apply it at the very end of cooking.As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will produce more smoke than leaner items.Adhere to the recommended grill settings and cooking guidelines in the chart on the following page whenever possible.

Defrosting

Use the Defrost # operating mode to defrost food.Remove the dish from its packaging, put it on a plate and place the plate on the wire grill.Do not cover the dish with a plate or bowl, as this can considerably extend the defrosting time.Do not use the liquid produced during defrosting for cooking the dish to avoid the risk of salmonella. Ensure that the liquid produced during defrosting is free to run off the food onto the plate or a baking pan if using the wire grill.For defrosting, use the wire grill on rack position A or B for larger dishes.

Roasting

When roasting, use the Roasting and Top Bottom Heat modes.The roasting guide contains the required temperatures, roasting times and oven rack positions for various kinds of meat. The figures stated are approximate figures only.We recommend cooking meat and fish weighing over 1 kg in the oven.For lean meat and fish, use Top Bottom Heat. For all other kinds of meat we recommend Roasting mode.Add a little liquid to prevent roasting juices or fat from getting burned onto the pan surfaces.Turn the food over after about half or two thirds of the cooking time.Allow the oven to cool down enough to ensure there is no risk of burning yourself.This roasting guide is intended as a guide only, individual tastes and cuts of meat will vary.Rack: Rack PositionMenuCookwareRackModeTemperature (7)Roasting Time (minutes)Beef Tender Loin (1.6 kg)Tray218055Meatloaf (1 kg)Tray118075Chicken (1 kg)TrayRack at 2 Tray at 118050Chicken (1.7 kg)TrayRack at 2 Tray at 118078Fish (2.5 kg)Tray217070Ribs Tomahawk Cooked B.T.Tray312085For better roasting results, baste joints and poultry with their own juices a number of times during the roasting process.Use heat resistant dishes when roasting (follow manufacturer’s instructions).Stainless steel roasting pans are only of limited use, as they reflect the heat to a very large extent.When using dishes with plastic handles, ensure that the handles are heat resistant (follow manufacturer’s instructions).Large items for roasting or a number of items can be placed directly on the wire grill above the deep pan (or baking tray) (e.g. turkey, goose, 3~4 chickens, 3~4 knuckles of veal).Lean meat should be roasted in a roasting tray with a lid (e.g. veal, braised beef, deep frozen meat). This keeps the juices in the meat.For cooking crispy crusts or bacon, a casserole dish with no lid should be used (e.g. pork, minced meat, lamb, mutton, duck, knuckle of veal, chicken, poultry meat, roast beef, fillet of beef, game birds).Pour enough water into the deep pan (or baking tray) to prevent smoke generation when you use roasting mode.Clean the oven as soon as possible after use if you are roasting in an open-topped tin or dish. It is easier to remove fat splashes when the oven is still warm.

Air Fry

The Air Fry function is specially designed for oil-free frying.No preheating is required when using the Air Fry mode.If cooking multiple batches, the later batches may take less time to cook.Wet batters and coatings will not crisp or set when using the Air Fry mode.For best results, cook food on a single rack placed in positions suggested in the chart in this manual.Spread the food out evenly in a single layer.Use either an air fry tray or a dark baking tray with no sides or short sides that does not cover the entire rack. This allows for better air circulation.If desired, spray the baking tray or air fry tray with a pan spray. Use an oil that can be heated to a high temperature before smoking, such as avocado, grapeseed, peanut or sunflower oil.Place a foil-lined baking tray on a rack in position 1 to catch the oil falling from the food. For high-fat foods like chicken wings, add a few sheets of parchment paper to absorb the fat.Check food often and shake it or turn it over for crisper results.Prepared frozen foods may cook faster with the Air Fry mode than stated on the package. Reduce the cooking time by about 20 percent, check food early, and adjust cooking time as needed.Use a food thermometer to make sure food has reached a safe temperature for consumption. Eating undercooked meats can increase your risk of food-borne illness.For the crispiest results, dredge fresh chicken wings or tenders in seasoned flour. Use 1/3 cup flour for 0.9 kg of chicken.When using a baking tray, place baking paper on the tray and cook.Foods high in fat will smoke when using the Air Fry mode. For best results, follow these recommendations when air frying foods that are high in fat, such as chicken wings, bacon, sausage, hot dogs, turkey legs, lamb chops, ribs, pork loin, duck breasts, or some plant-based proteins.Never cover slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover entire racks with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the oven and can result in carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil can also trap heat, causing a fire hazard or poor oven performance.Clean the grease filters on your exhaust hood regularly.Turn on your exhaust hood at a high fan setting before you start Air Fry and leave it on for 15 minutes after you're done.Open a window or sliding glass door, if possible, to make sure the kitchen is well-ventilated.Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Wipe down the interior of the oven before and after air frying (once the oven has cooled).Run oven cleaning cycles regularly, depending on how often and what types of food you Air Fry.Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary to help maintain the oven temperature, prevent heat loss, and save energy.Air-frying fresh chicken pieces such as wings or drumsticks with the skin left on can produce smoke as the fat renders at high temperatures. If the smoke is excessive, use the Roast mode instead of Air Fry.
