– When droplets and crumbs may fall down during baking, insert the baking
tray in the bottom shelf slot.
– If you wish to use the rotisserie spit, then insert the prepared rotisserie spit in
the rotor drive and spit holder (see: ‘Preparing the Rotisserie Spit’).
4. Preheating for special cases: In most cases, preheating is required only, when
using any baking dishes or the pizza stone (see: ‘Properties of Your New Oven
/ Useful Accessories’). For preheating, push the required accessory into the oven
without your food (e.g. pizza stone or roaster on the grilling rack).
WARNING – Tin foil or baking paper may bend when heated and there-
fore touch the heating elements. DO NOT cover the crumb tray with tin foil or
baking paper to avoid risk of over-heating and short circuit! Do not operate the
oven with the oven door open!
5. Close the oven door.
6. Insert the power plug into a wall power outlet of an appropriate power supply.
Wait until only the on/off button flashes (standby mode).
7. Set-up the oven for your task (see: ‘Selecting the Program’).
PREPARING THE ROTISSERIE SPIT
CAUTION – The food, baked via the rotisserie spit should not be more than
approx. 15cm (approx. 6 inches) in length and approx. 10cm (approx. 6 inches)
in diameter. It should not protrude the rotisserie spit farther than 4-5 cm (max. 2
inches), to avoid that it may get too near to the heating elements. Additionally, it
may not even partly loosen during cooking to prevent that your food touches the
heating elements. Keep in mind, that some food may fall apart during baking (e.g.
fish). In general, this type of food is not suitable for baking via the rotisserie spit.
IMPORTANT - For your safety, the rotor programs ( and ) only activate the
top heating elements, avoiding that droplets and crumbs of your food burn to charcoal
on the bottom heating elements or even catch fire. Nevertheless, it is good advice to
insert the baking tray in the bottom shelf slot for catching droplets and crumbs.
Fixing Food at the Rotisserie Spit
IMPORTANT - Only use stainless steel and/or hear-resistant and food-save cords,
clamps, and skewers. Keep in mind that food will loose strength and may shrink
or puff-up, when heated.
1. Loosen the clamps of the rotisserie spit and pull down at least one clamp. The
clamps can be moved freely on the rotisserie spit after turning the screw on the
holder of the clamp counter-clockwise.
2. Penetrate the food (e.g. a piece of roast) via the rotisserie spit. Small, long
pieces (e.g. chicken drumsticks) may be attached with food-safe cords or ske-
wers. As far as possible, the rotisserie spit should be placed in the centre of the
food. Your food may not protrude the axis of the rotisserie spit no more than
6-7cm (approx. 3 inches). Leave sufficient free space at each end for fixing the
clamps of the rotisserie spit, because they will ensure that your food will turn with
the rotisserie spit, when the rotor is running.
3. Replace the clamps with the tips facing inwards and, for fixing your food, push the
clamps tightly to the food. However, do not use violence to avoid damage to the
clamps. Fasten the clamps by turning the screws on the holders of the clamps clockwise.
4. Bind loose parts (e.g. legs and wings) via suitable cords or use skewers for shish
kebab or roulades.
5. Via turning the rotisserie spit in your hand, ensure that all parts of your food are
fixed securely and do not stick out too far.
Inserting the Rotisserie Spit
NOTE
There are 3 grooves in the rotisserie spit. The large grooves are used for hooking
in the spit handle and the small groove at one end for fixing the rotisserie spit in
the spit holder at the left side of the oven.
6. Insert the rotisserie spit at an angle into the oven compartment with the left end
(2 grooves) slided carefully in above the middle shelf slot. While doing so, insert
the right side (1 groove) of the rotisserie spit into the opening of the rotor drive.
7. Lay the left side into the notch in the centre of the spit holder. Ensure that the
rotisserie spit is fixed securely and can not slip out.
