Information and recommended settings for special
cooking methods and other applications, e.g. low-tem-

Low-temperature cooking
For all prime cuts which are to be cooked rare or "à

and poultry remain juicy and tender.
Low-temperature cooking poultry or meat
Note:When using the low-temperature cooking type of
heating, you cannot delay the start of the programme
by setting an end time.
Requirement:The cooking compartment is cold.
1.
Use fresh, hygienically perfect meat. Pieces without
bones and without a lot of connective tissue are
most suitable.
2.
Place the cookware onto the wire rack at level 2 in
the cooking compartment.
3.
Preheat the cooking compartment and cookware for
approx. 15minutes.
4.
Sear the meat on all sides on the hob at a very high
heat.
5.
Immediately place the meat into the pre-warmed
cookware in the cooking compartment.
To ensure that the temperature in the cooking com-
partment remains constant, keep the cooking com-
partment door closed during low-temperature cook-
ing.

Air Fry
Cook food with Air Fry until crispy and with little fat. Air
Fry is particularly suitable for meals that are normally
fried in oil.
Cooking tips for Air Fry
Observe this information when cooking food with Air
Fry.
¡ Only one level can be used when cooking with Air
Fry.
¡ The Air Fry accessory makes food crispier. If the Air-
Fry accessory is not included with the appliance as
standard, you can obtain the Air-Fry accessory as
an optional accessory.
¡ Do not preheat the oven.
¡ Do not use greaseproof paper. The air must circu-
late in the cooking compartment.
¡ Do not defrost frozen food.
¡ Cover the Air-Fry accessory or the universal pan
evenly with the food. If possible, only distribute the
food on the accessory in a single layer.
¡ Insert the accessory into the cooking compartment
at level 3. If you use the Air Fry accessory, you can
insert an empty universal pan at level 1 to protect
against dirt.
¡ Turn the food halfway through cooking. If you are
cooking larger quantities, turn the food twice.
Tip:Do not season the food until after you have
cooked it. This makes the food crispier.
Breaded vegetables are also suitable for cooking with
Air Fry. To save fat, use a sprayer to spray the coating
with oil. This forms a crispy crust with little fat.
