Causes of damage
Caution!
■Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on the 
cooking compartment floor: do not place accessories on the 
cooking compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking 
compartment floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper. 
Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a 
temperature of over 50 ºC has been set. This will cause heat 
to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer 
be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
■Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour water into 
the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause 
steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the 
enamel.
■Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking 
compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods This will 
damage the enamel.
■Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not 
pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from 
the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If 
possible, use the deeper universal pan.
■Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the cooking 
compartment to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance 
door is only open a little, front panels of adjacent units could 
be damaged over time.
■Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty, the 
appliance door will no longer close properly when the 
appliance is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be 
damaged.Always keep the door seal clean.
■Appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not sit on the 
appliance door, or place or hang anything on it. Do not place 
any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
■Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance model, 
accessories can scratch the door panel when closing the 
appliance door. Always insert the accessories into the 
cooking compartment as far as they will go.
■Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the appliance by 
the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight 
of the appliance and could break.
Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and 
roasting and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the 
operating instruction tables.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They 
absorb the heat particularly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during cooking, 
baking or roasting.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking 
compartment is still warm. This may reduce the baking time for 
the second cake.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off 
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the 
residual heat to finish cooking.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
