1.9 State of California Proposition 65
Warnings
This product may contain a chemical known to the State
of California, which can cause cancer or reproductive
harm. Therefore, the packaging of your product may bear
the following label as required by California:
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe
Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substance known
to the state to cause cancer, birth defect or other
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposure to such substances. The
burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil
during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of
carbon monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in self clean
ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde
during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists
formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon
monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity.
Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
¡Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
¡Providing good ventilation during and immediately after
self-cleaning the oven.
¡Operating the unit according to the instructions in this
manual.

Environmental protection and energy-saving
3.1 Disposal of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible
and can be recycled.
▶Sort the individual components by type and dispose of
them separately.
3.2 Saving energy when using the oven
If you follow these tips, your appliance consumes less
energy.
Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the
recommended settings tell you to do so.
aNot preheating the appliance can reduce the energy
used.
Use dark-colored, black-coated or enameled baking pans.
aThese types of baking pans absorb the heat particularly
well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
aThis will maintain the temperature in the oven cavity
and eliminate the need for the appliance to reheat.
When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or at
the same time.
aThe oven cavity is heated after baking the first dish.
This reduces the baking time for the second dish.
If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the
appliance off 10minutes before the cooking time ends.
aThere will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the
dish.
Remove any accessories that are not being used from the
oven cavity.
aAn extra pan without food affects the browning and
cooking.
Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.
aThis will save the energy that would otherwise be
required to defrost it.
3.3 Saving energy when using the cooktop
If you follow these tips, your appliance consumes less
energy.
Select cookware with a base diameter that matches the
cooking zone. Center the cookware on the cooking zone.
Tip:Cookware manufacturers usually state the top
diameter of the cookware. The diameter of the cookware
base is usually smaller.
aThe energy is targeted at the cookware.
If you use cookware that is too small, energy is wasted.
If the cookware is too large, much energy is used to
heat up the cookware.
Close cookware with a fitting lid.
aCooking without a lid consumes more energy.
Only lift the lid when necessary.
aIf you lift the lid, a lot of energy can escape.
Use a glass lid.
aIf you use a glass lid, you can look inside the cookware
without lifting the lid.
Use cookware with a solid flat bottom.
aCurved cookware bases increase energy consumption.
Use a cookware size that matches the amount of food you
want to cook.
aCookware with little content consumes a lot of energy.
Cook with a small amount of water.
aMore water requires more energy to heat it up.
Select a lower power level as soon as possible. Select a
suitable power level to continue cooking.
aFor ongoing cooking a lower power level is sufficient.
