2 Preventing material damage
2.1 General
ATTENTION!
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 above 50°C has been set.
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.
▶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.
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.
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 or hang objects on the appliance 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.
2.2 Steam
Follow these instructions when using the steam func-
tion.
ATTENTION!
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.
Hot water in the water tank may damage the steam
system.
▶Only fill the water tank with cold water.
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.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
▶Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
Cleaning the water tank in the dishwasher will damage
it.
▶Do not clean the water tank in the dishwasher.
▶Clean the water tank with a soft cloth and standard
washing-up liquid.
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.
Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recom-
mended settings tell you to do so.
¡Not preheating the appliance can reduce the en-
ergy used by up to 20%.

en Environmental protection and saving energy
6
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 will maintain the temperature in the cooking
compartment and eliminate the need for the appli-
ance to reheat.
When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or
in parallel.
¡The cooking compartment is heated after baking
the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the
second cake.
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.
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 will save the energy that would otherwise be
required to defrost it.
