Causes of damage
Caution!
– Do not place anything on the cooking
compartment floor. Do not cover it with aluminium
foil. A build-up of heat could damage the
appliance.
The cooking compartment floor and the
evaporator dish must always be kept clear. Always
place ovenware in a perforated cooking container
or on a wire rack.
– Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must
not come into contact with the door panel. This
could cause permanent discolouration of the door
panel.
– We recommend you use a mineral water low in
chloride and without added carbonic acid if your
tap water contains large amounts of chloride
(>40 mg/l). You can inquire with your local water
supply company to obtain information about your
tap water.
– Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant.
Silicone baking tins are not suitable for combined
operation with steam.
– Use only original accessories in the cooking
compartment. Rusting material (such as serving
platters or knives and forks) can cause corrosion
in the oven interior.
– Use original small parts (e.g. knurled nuts) only.
Order small parts from our after-sales service if
these should be lost.
– When steaming with a perforated cooking
container, always insert the baking tray or the
solid cooking container underneath. Dripping
liquid is caught.
– Do not store moist food in the closed cooking
compartment for long periods. It can lead to
corrosion in the cooking compartment.
– Salt, spicy sauces (e.g. ketchup or mustard) or
salted dishes (e.g. cured roast) contain chloride
and acids. These corrode the surfaces of
stainless steel. Always remove residues
immediately.
– Fruit juice may leave stains in the cooking
compartment. Always remove fruit juice
immediately and wipe the cooking compartment
with a moist and dry cloth.
– The cooking compartment in your appliance is
made of high grade stainless steel. Improper care
can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment. Refer to the care and cleaning
instructions in the instruction manual. After every
use, clean the cooking compartment after the
appliance has cooled down. After cleaning, dry
the cooking compartment with the drying
program.

5
– Do not detach the door seal. The appliance door
will no longer close properly if the door seal is
damaged. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Have the door seal replaced.
– Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door
handle. The door handle cannot support the
weight of the appliance, and could break.
Environmental protection
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in
an environmentally-responsible manner.
Environmental protection
Tips for saving energy
▯Open the appliance door as little as possible
while cooking.
▯Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking
tins for baking. They absorb the heat particularly
well.
▯It is best to bake several cakes one after the
other. The oven will still be hot. This reduces the
baking time for the second cake. You can also
place two loaf tins next to each other.
▯For longer cooking times, you can switch off the
steam oven 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and you can use the residual heat to
finish cooking.
▯When steaming, you can cook simultaneously on
several levels. If dishes require different cooking
times, insert the dishes that require the longest
time first.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
the European Directive 2012/19/EU
concerning used electrical and electronic
appliances (WEEE – waste electrical and
electronic equipment). The guideline
determines the framework for the return and
recycling of used appliances as applicable.
