2 Preventing material damage
2.1 General
ATTENTION!
A build-up of heat may damage the appliance.
▶Do not place anything directly on the cooking com-
partment floor.
▶Do not line the cooking compartment floor with alu-
minium foil.
▶Always place cookware in a perforated cooking con-
tainer or on a wire rack.
Chlorinated tap water (>40mg/l) may damage the ap-
pliance.
▶Use low-chloride non-carbonated mineral water.
▶You can obtain information about your tap water
from your water supplier.
Chloride and acids may damage the stainless steel sur-
face.
▶Remove any residues of salt, hot sauces, e.g.
ketchup or mustard, salted food, e.g. salted roasts,
or other foods containing chloride or acid immedi-
ately.
Aluminium foil can cause permanent discolouration on
the door pane.
▶Ensure that the aluminium foil does not come into
contact with the door pane.
Fruit juice can cause permanent stains in the cooking
compartment.
▶Always remove fruit juice immediately.
▶Wipe with a damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth.

Preventing material damage en
5
The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking
compartment leads to corrosion.
▶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.
Rusting material may lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
▶Only use original accessories in the cooking com-
partment.
▶Do not use any enamelled baking trays or grill trays.
▶Never use serving plates or cutlery that may rust.
Small parts that are not original may damage the appli-
ance.
▶Only use original small parts, e.g. knurled nuts.
▶If necessary, order small parts from our spare parts
service.
Heat can damage stainless steel cooking containers.
▶Only heat stainless steel cooking containers up to
230°C.
▶Do not use stainless steel cooking containers in the
oven.
Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open
will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over
time.
▶Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
down with the door closed after cooking at high
temperatures.
▶Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
door.
▶Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the
door open if a lot of moisture was produced during
operation.
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.
2.2 Steam
ATTENTION!
Dripping liquids may damage the cooking compart-
ment.
▶To catch any dripping liquids, when steaming using
a perforated cooking container, always insert the un-
perforated cooking container underneath.
Silicone bakeware is not suitable for combined opera-
tion with steam.
▶Cookware must be heat- and steam-resistant.
Using cookware with rust spots may cause corrosion in
the cooking compartment. Even the smallest spots of
rust can cause corrosion.
▶Do not use cookware with rust spots.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
▶Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
2.3 Core temperature probe
WARNING‒Risk of electric shock!
An incorrect core temperature probe may damage the
insulation.
▶Only use the core temperature probe that is suitable
for this appliance.
ATTENTION!
Temperatures above 250°C damage the core temper-
ature probe.
▶Only use the core temperature probe in your appli-
ance at a maximum temperature of 230°C.
You may damage the cable of the core temperature
probe with the appliance door.
▶Do not trap the cable of the core temperature probe
in the appliance door.
The heat of the grill heating element may damage the
core temperature probe.
▶Ensure that the distance between the grill heating
element and the core temperature probe and the
cable of the core temperature probe is a few centi-
metres. In doing so, ensure that the meat can ex-
pand during the cooking process.
Moisture may damage the core temperature probe.
▶Do not clean the core temperature probe in the
dishwasher.
2.4 Cleaning
ATTENTION!
Limescale may damage the appliance.
▶Descale the appliance regularly.
Using the wrong descaler may damage the appliance.
▶Only use the specified descaling tablets.
Improper care of the appliance can lead to corrosion in
the cooking compartment.
▶Follow the care and cleaning instructions for the ap-
pliance.
→"Cleaning and servicing", Page26
▶Clean the cooking compartment each time you use
it as soon as the appliance has cooled down.
▶After cleaning the cooking compartment, use the
drying programme →Page28 to dry it.
The descaling tablet may damage the cooking com-
partment.
▶Use the descaling tablet for the descaling pro-
gramme only.
▶Place the descaling tablet into the water tank.
▶Never place the descaling tablet in the cooking
compartment or heat it up in the cooking compart-
ment.
Heat damages the water tank.
▶Do not dry the water tank in the hot cooking com-
partment.

en Environmental protection and saving energy

3 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
▶Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the
same time.
¡With steam, various dishes can be prepared at the
same time without the different flavours mixing.
When preparing dishes with different cooking times,
those with the longest cooking time should be
placed in the oven first.
When cooking multiple dishes, do so in succession or
in parallel.
¡The cooking compartment is heated after cooking
the first dish. This reduces the cooking time for the
following dishes.
If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch
the appliance off 10minutes before the cooking time
ends.
¡There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking
the dish.
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking
tins.
¡These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
larly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
¡This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment and eliminates the need for the appliance
to reheat.
Remove any accessories that are not being used from
the cooking compartment.
¡Accessories that are not being used do not need to
be heated.
Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.
¡This saves the energy that would otherwise be re-
quired to defrost it.

Cooking compartment
The cooking compartment has three shelf levels. Count
the shelf levels from the bottom up.
ATTENTION!
A build-up of heat may damage the appliance.
▶Ensure that the cooking compartment floor always
remains clear.
▶Do not place anything directly on the cooking com-
partment floor.
▶Do not line the cooking compartment floor with alu-
minium foil.
▶Always place cookware in the perforated cooking
container or on the wire rack.
The accessories may tip.
▶Do not push the accessories between the shelf posi-
tions.
When steaming, defrosting, dough proving and reheat-
ing, you can use up to three shelf levels at a time. You
can only bake on one level. Use level 2 for baking or,
for taller baking tins, use level 1. For very small baked
goods, you can also use two levels, e.g. level 1 and
level 3.
Water tank for descaling programme
Your appliance is equipped with a water tank with a
maximum capacity of 1.7litres.
If you open the appliance door, you can see the water
tank for the descaling programme →Page28. You
can remove the lid for cleaning.
Grease filter
The grease filter prevents the components of the appli-
ance becoming soiled with grease.
Leave the grease filter in the cooking compartment for
all applications.
Clean the grease filter with hot soapy water or in the
dishwasher every time heavy dirt deposits have been
left behind after cooking.
Controls
You can use the control panel to configure all functions
of your appliance and to obtain information about the
operating status.
On certain models, specific details such as colour and
shape may differ from those pictured.
All appliance types are operated in an identical man-
ner.
