We recommend that (due to appliance weight) at least two persons carry and install the appliance.
Do not lift the appliance by holding it by the door handle.
Oven door hinges may be damaged when under excessive load. Do not stand or sit on the open oven
door, and do not lean against it. Also, do not place any heavy objects onto the oven door.
If the power cords of other appliances placed near this appliance get entangled in the oven door, they
can be damaged, which in turn can result in a short circuit. Therefore, make sure the power cords of
other appliances are always at a safe distance.
Make sure the vents are never covered or obstructed in any other way.
Do not line the oven cavity with aluminium foil, and do not place any baking trays or other cookware
on the oven bottom. This would obstruct and reduce air circulation in the oven, slow down the baking
process, and destroy the enamel coating.
We recommend you avoid opening the oven door during baking, as this increases power consumption
and increases condensate accumulation.
At the end of the baking process, and during baking, be careful when opening the oven door, as there
is danger of scalding.
To prevent limescale accumulation, leave the oven door open after baking or using the oven, to allow
the oven cavity to cool down to room temperature.
Clean the oven when it has completely cooled down.
Eventual mismatches in colour shades between different appliances or components within a single
design line may occur due to various factors, such as different angles under which the appliances are
observed, different coloured backgrounds, materials, and room illumination.
Do not use the appliance if it is damaged. Unplug the appliance from the power mains and call an
authorized service centre.
The oven can be safely used with or without baking pan guides.
Do not store items in the oven, which could cause danger when the oven is switched on.
The deviation of the daily time display on the screen does not affect the functionality of the appliance
and may be due to fluctuations in the frequency of the electrical network.
Heed the minimum distance between the upper edge of the oven and the closest object above it.
The microwave oven is intended for heating food and beverages. Drying food or clothing and heating
of hot packs or pads, slippers, sponges, moist cloths etc. may result in injury, ignition, or fire.
Always use oven mitts to remove dishes from the oven. Some pots, pans, or trays may absorb the
heat from the food and thus become very hot.
Make sure to only use the cookware that is suitable for use in a microwave oven. Do not use steel
cookware or cookware with golden or silver decorative edges or ornaments.
8

Do not leave any accessories or utensils in your oven when it is off. Do not switch on an empty
oven to avoid damaging it.

Before first use
•Remove oven accessories and any packaging (cardboard, polystyrene foam) from the oven.
•Wipe the oven accessories and interior with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive or aggressive
cloths or cleaners.
•Heat an empty oven for approximately one hour with the top and bottom heater system at a
temperature of 250 °C. The characteristic "new oven scent" will be released; therefore, ventilate
the room thoroughly during this process.
Microwave function
Microwaves are used for cooking, roasting, and defrosting of food. They allow quick and efficient
cooking without changing the colour or shape of the food.
Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation. Such radiation is commonly found in our
environment in the form of radio-electric waves, light or infrared rays. Microwave frequency is in the
2,450 MHz range.
Following are their characteristics:
- microwaves are reflected by metals,
- microwaves travel through other materials,
- microwaves are absorbed by water, fat, and sugar molecules.
When food is exposed to microwaves, the molecules begin to move rapidly, thereby generating heat.
The microwaves penetrate approximately 2.5 cm deep into the food. If the food is thicker, the core of
the food will be cooked by conduction, as in conventional cooking.
WARNING!
Never use or activate a microwave system if the oven is empty.

HOT AIR
Hot air allows better flow of hot air around the food. This way, it dries out the surface
and creates a thicker crust. Use this system to cook meat, pastry and vegetables,
and to dry food on a single rack or multiple racks simultaneously.
HOT AIR AND BOTTOM HEATER
This system is optimal for baking homemade pizza and pastry with higher water
content. Use it to bake on a single rack, when you want the food to be done faster
and to be crunchy.
HOT AIR AND TOP HEATER
This cooking method results in a crunchy crust without added fat. This is a healthy
version of fast-food frying, with fewer calories in the cooked food. Suitable for
smaller cuts of meat, fish, vegetables, and frozen products ready for frying (French
fries, chicken nuggets).
GRILL WITH HOT AIR
Hot air allows better flow of hot air around the food. This will dry out the surface.
In combination with the grill heater/broiler, this will also result in a more intensive
colour.
For faster baking of meat and vegetables.
TURBO BAKE
For dishes where even crispiness from all sides is desirable. The system is also
suitable as the first step in the step baking mode, as it allows quick browning of
the surface in the first stage and slow baking in the second stage. The meat will be
juicy with a nicely browned crust.
LARGE GRILL
Use this system to grill large amounts of flat-shaped food like toast, open
sandwiches, grill sausages, steaks, fish, skewers etc., as well as for cooking au
gratin and for browning the crust. The heaters mounted on the top of the oven cavity
evenly heat the entire surface.
