2.1 General

ATTENTION!

Alcoholic vapours may catch fire in the hot cooking

compartment and cause permanent damage to the ap-

pliance. The appliance door may spring open due to

an explosion and it may fall off. The door panels may

shatter and fragment. Due to the resulting negative

pressure, the cooking compartment may become con-

siderably deformed inwards.

▶ Do not heat spirits (≥ 15% vol.) when undiluted (e.g.

for marinating or pouring over food).

If there is water on the cooking compartment floor

when operating the appliance at temperatures above

120°C, this will damage the enamel.

▶ Do not use the appliance if there is water on the

cooking compartment floor.

▶ Wipe away any water on the cooking compartment

floor before operation.

Objects on the cooking compartment floor at over

50°C will cause heat to build up. The baking and

roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel

will be damaged.

▶ Do not place any accessories, greaseproof paper or

foil of any kind on the cooking compartment floor.

▶ Only place cookware on the cooking compartment

floor if a temperature under 50°C has been set.

Using silicone moulds or any film, covers or accessor-

ies that contain silicone could damage the baking

sensor. Damage may occur even if the baking sensor

is not active.

▶ Do not use silicone moulds or any film, covers or

accessories that contain silicone.

▶ Never place objects made of silicone in the cooking

compartment.

When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-

side it will create steam. The change in temperature

may cause damage.

▶ Never pour water into the cooking compartment

when it is still hot.

▶ Never place cookware containing water on the

cooking compartment floor.

The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking

compartment leads to corrosion.

▶ Allow the cooking compartment to dry after use. To

do this, open the cooking compartment door com-

pletely or use the drying function.

▶ Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment

for a long time with the door closed.

▶ Do not store food in the cooking compartment.

▶ Take care not to trap anything in the appliance

door.

Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains

that cannot be removed.

▶ When baking very juicy fruit flans, do not pack too

much on the baking tray.

▶ If possible, use the deeper universal pan.

Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment

damages the enamel.

▶ Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment

when it is still warm.

▶ Remove all food remnants from the cooking com-

partment and the appliance door before you next

heat up the appliance.

If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no

longer close properly during operation. This may dam-

age the front of adjacent kitchen units.

▶ Keep the seal clean at all times.

▶ Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged

or missing.

Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may

damage it.

▶ Do not place, hang or support objects on the appli-

ance door.

▶ Do not place cookware or accessories on the appli-

ance door.

With certain models, accessories may scratch the door

pane when closing the appliance door.

▶ Always push accessories fully into the cooking com-

partment.

If aluminium foil comes into contact with the door pane,

it could cause permanent discolouration.

▶ Do not allow aluminium foil in the cooking compart-

ment to come into contact with the door pane.

2.2 Microwave

Follow these instructions when using the microwave.

ATTENTION!

Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment

will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or

the inner door pane.

▶ Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least

2cm from the cooking compartment walls and the

inside of the door.

Using accessories directly on top of one another

causes sparks.

▶ Do not combine the wire rack with the universal

pan.

▶ Always place accessories on different levels.

The universal pan and baking tray are not suitable for

use with microwave-only mode. Using either of these

may create sparks, which will damage the cooking

compartment.

▶ Place accessories on the wire rack supplied.

Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may

cause sparks, which will damage the appliance.

▶ Do not use aluminium containers in the appliance.
