Electrical safety

•This appliance must be only connected by a registered electrician.

•In the event of a fault or damage to the appliance: Take the fuses out or switch off.

•Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by qualified service engi neers. Considerable danger may result from improper repairs. If repairs be come necessary, please contact our Customer Services or your dealer.

Child Safety

• Never leave children unsupervised when the appliance is in use.

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.

3Information on acrylamides

According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of food, espe cially in products containing starch, can constitute a health risk due to acryla mides. Therefore we recommend cooking at the lowest possible temperatures and not browning foods too much.

6 Safety instructions

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 dam age to or 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. This could damage the oven enamel.

•After switching off the cooling fan, do not keep uncovered dishes in the oven. Moisture may condense in the oven interior or on the glass doors and may get into the units.

3Note on enamel coating

Changes in the colour of the oven’s enamel coating as a result of use do not af fect the appliance’s suitability for normal and correct use. They therefore do not constitute a defect in the sense of the warranty law.

General Instructions:

•Quick hotplates are distinguished from normal hotplates by their higher pow er. They are indicated by a red dot which disappears after a while after heating and cleaning.

•Because of condensation and the beginnings of rust formation, please do not place wet saucepan lids on the hotplate and do not leave hot pans to cool on the hotplate.

1 Keep all objects and materials that might melt well away from the hob, e. g. plastics, tin foils or oven foils.

Heat settings

Inserting the Oven Shelf and the Baking Tray

3Shelf runner safety and anti tip device

As a shelf runner safety device, all insertable components have a small curved indentation at the bottom on the right and left hand edge.

Always insert insertable components so that this indentation is at the back of the oven interior. This indentation is also important for preventing the insertable components from tipping.

Inserting the baking tray

Push the baking tray between the guide bars of the selected oven level.

Inserting the oven shelf:

Insert the oven shelf so that the feet point downwards.

Push the oven shelf between the guide bars of the selected oven level.

3The high rim around the oven shelf is an

additional device to prevent cookware from slipping.

Inserting the oven shelf and the baking tray together:

Lay the oven shelf on the baking tray. Push the baking tray between the guide bars of the selected oven level.

Uses, Tables and Tips

Pans

•The better the pan, the better the results.

•You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible.

•When buying new pans pay particular attention to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.

•When cold, pan bases are normally

bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (con vex).

2 Energy saving tips

You will save valuable energy if you observe the following tips:

•Always place pots and pans on the hotplate before switching it on.

•Soiled hotplates and pan bases cause increased power consumption.

•If possible, always fit pans with a lid.

• Switch off the hotplates before the end of cooking to make use of the residual heat, e.g., to keep food warm or for melt ing.

• The pan base should be the same size as the hotplate.

• By using a pressure cooker cooking times can be reduced by up to 50%.

3We recommend when boiling or searing foods using the highest heat setting at first and then letting foods requiring a longer cooking time finish cooking on the desired heat setting.

1Overheated fats and oils can ignite quickly. If you are cooking foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips), remain nearby.
