appliance off.

• Repairs to the appliance must only be
carried out by qualified service engi-
neers . Considerable danger may result
from improper repairs. If repairs become

Care Department or your dealer.

Children's safety

• Never leave small children unattended
while the appliance is in operation

• To protect against unauthorised use the
appliance is equipped with a switch-on
lock

Safety during use

• Persons (including children) who, due to
their physical, sensory or mental capacity
or their inexperience or lack of knowledge
are unable to use the appliance safely
should not operate this appliance without
the supervision or instruction of a respon­sible person.

• This appliance should be used only for
normal domestic cooking, roasting and
baking of food.

• Be careful if connecting electrical applian­ces to sockets near to this appliance. Elec­trical leads must not be caught under the
hot oven door.

• If you use ingredients containing alcohol in
the oven, a slightly flammable mixture of
alcohol and air may ensue. In this case, be

careful when opening the door. Do not
handle any sources of heat, sparks or nak­ed flames when doing so.

Warning! Risk of burns! The oven
interior becomes hot when in use

Information on acrylamides

Important! According to the latest scientific

knowledge, intensive browning of food,
especially in products containing starch, can
constitute a health risk due to acrylamides.
Therefore, we recommend cooking at the
lowest possible temperatures and not
browning foods too much.

How to avoid damage to the appliance

• Do not line the oven with aluminium foil and
do not place baking trays, pots, etc. on the
oven floor, as the heat that builds up will
damage the oven enamel.

• Fruit juices dripping from the baking tray
will leave stains, which you will not be able
to remove. For very moist cakes, use a
deep tray.

•Do not put any strain on the oven door
when open.

• Never pour water directly into the oven
when it is hot. This could cause damage to
and discoloration of the enamel.

• Rough handling, especially around the
edges of the front panel, can cause the
glass to break.

• Do not store any flammable materials in­side the oven. These could ignite when the
oven is switched on.

• Do not store any moist foods inside the
oven. These could damage the oven en­amel.

• Do not leave dishes uncovered in the oven
after switching off the cooling fan. Moisture
may form inside the oven or on the glass
door and also get onto the units.

Description of the appliance

General view

Enamel coating
Changes in the colour of the oven's en­amel surface as a result of use do not
affect the oven's suitability for normal
and correct use. They therefore do not
constitute a defect in terms of warranty
law.

Adapting oven to the kitchen
environment

For optimum results using "Auto Cooking"
the oven must be adjusted to suit the envi­ronment. This procedure is called Calibration
and takes approximately 4 hours.

If you only want to use the oven for man­ual cooking, it does not need to be cali­brated.

Please take note of the following points
prior to Calibration

• Calibration must take place at a
room temperature below 35°C.

• For Calibration, the oven must be in­stalled in its final location .

• For Calibration, connect the oven to
the mains supply and do not discon­nect it again.

• If the installation location, electrical
connection or one of the other points
listed above is changed, the oven
must always be recalibrated so that
the "Auto Cooking" function delivers
optimum results.

You will find the calibration in the "Basic Set­tings", "Calibration" menu.
Following calibration, the appliance is ready
to be used, as soon as it has cooled down.
