Operating Instructions
1 Safety instructions
5 This appliance conforms with the following EU Directives:
– 73/23/EEC dated 19.02.1973 Low Voltage Directive
– 89/336/EEC dated 03.05.1989 EMC Directive inclusive of Amending
Directive 92/31/EEC
– 93/68/EEC dated 22.07.1993 CE Marking Directive
Electrical safety
• This appliance must be connected by a qualified electrician only.
• In the event of a fault or damage to the appliance: take the fuses out or
switch off.
• Should the door seal and the door seal surfaces be damaged, the appliance must not be operated until they are repaired.
• Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by qualified service
engineers. Considerable danger may result from improper repairs. If re-
pairs become necessary, please contact your local Service Force Centre.
Children’s safety
• Small children must be kept away from the appliance. Make sure that children do not touch the appliance when playing.
• Always heat baby food in jars or bottles with the lid or top off. After heating, stir well or shake so that the heat is evenly distributed. Before you
give the baby food to the child, please be sure to test the temperature.
• When operating the grill (alone or in combination with the microwave) the
viewing window becomes hot. Therefore keep small children away from
the door of the appliance.
Safety whilst Using
• This appliance is intended to be used for cooking, roasting and baking
food in the home.
• Take care when connecting electric appliances to sockets nearby. Do not
allow connecting leads to come into contact with or to catch beneath the
hot oven door.
• Warning: Risk of burns! The interior of the oven becomes hot during use.
• Using ingredients containing alcohol in the oven may create an alcohol-air
mixture that is easily ignited. In this case, open the door carefully. Do not
have embers, sparks or naked flames in the vicinity when opening the
door.

3 Information about acrylamides
According to the latest scientific research, intensive browning of food, especially in products containing starch, may present a health risk due to acrylamide. Therefore we recommend cooking at low temperatures and not
browning foods too much.
Microwave
• Only switch the appliance on when there is food inside it. Without food inside it, the appliance could be overloaded.
• Only use microwave-safe cookware (see chapter Usage, Tables and Tips
/ Suitable Cookware and Material).
• To protect the interior or the door of the appliance from corrosion through
escaping steam (condensed water), please dry the appliance with a cloth
after each use.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended, if food is being heated or cooked
in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other flammable
materials.
• If smoke appears, keep the appliance closed. Switch off the appliance
and disconnect from the power supply. Do not use the appliance under
any circumstances if it is no longer working correctly.
• When heating liquids always put a coffee spoon or a glass rod in the
container to avoid delay in boiling. With
delay in boiling the boiling temperature
is reached without the typical steam
bubbles rising. If the container is
shaken even slightly the liquid can suddenly boil over or spray violently. Risk
of burns!
• Prick food with „skin“ or „peel“, such
as potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, with
a fork several times before cooking so
that the food does not burst.
6
Ensure that a minimum temperature of
70 °C is reached when cooking/ heating
food. For this please refer to the power
and time data in the tables. Never use
mercury or liquid thermometers to measure the temperature of the food.
• Foods heated with microwaves give off
heat to the cookware. Use oven
gloves or something similar.
• Do not overcook the dishes by using powers and times that are too high.
The food can dry out, burn or set itself alight in certain places.
• The interior of the oven, the grill heating element and the accessories become hot when the appliance is operating. Please be careful when handling them and use oven gloves or similar.
Risk of burns!
• Metal objects must be at least 2 cm from the walls of the interior and the
oven interior door. Otherwise spark discharge can occur and the appliance can be damaged.
• If not advised otherwise, do not use aluminium foil.
• Do not get anything caught between the door and the door frame.
• Always keep the door seal, the door seal surfaces and the interior clean.
Lack of cleanliness in the appliance can lead to dangerous situations.
• Do not store any flammable objects inside the oven. These could ignite
when the oven is switched on.
3 Note on enamel coating
Changes in the colour of the oven’s enamel coating as a result of use do not
affect the appliance’s suitability for normal and correct use. They therefore
do not constitute a defect in the sense of the warranty law.
7
Do not use the appliance...
• for cooking eggs in their shells (with
fried eggs, pierce the yolks first) and
snails, as otherwise these burst,
• for heating large amounts of cooking oil
(fondue, deep frying) and drinks with
high alcohol content. Spontaneous
combustion! Risk of explosion!
• for heating tightly closed containers, e.
g. tins, bottles, screw top jars,
• for drying animals, textiles and paper,
• for cookware made of porcelain, ce-
ramic or earthenware that has small
holes, e. g. on handles or unglazed bottoms. Moisture penetrating small holes
can cause the cookware to crack when
it is heated.
