To Avoid Damaging Your Appliance

• Do not line your oven with aluminium foil and do not place a baking
tray or dish on the oven floor, otherwise the oven enamel will be
damaged by the resulting build up of heat.

• Juice from fruit that drips from baking trays will leave marks that
cannot be removed. For very moist cakes, use the universal baking
tray.

• Do not put any weight on the oven door when it is open.

• Never pour water directly into the hot oven. The enamel may be dam-

aged.

• Using force, especially on the edges of the front glass panel, may
break the glass.
