]Causes of damage

Causes of damage

General information

Caution!
Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on
the cooking compartment floor: do not place accessories on the cooking compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking compartment floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper. Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a temperature of over 50 ºC has been set. This will cause heat to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Aluminium foil: Aluminium foil in the cooking
compartment must not come into contact with the door glass. This could cause permanent discolouration of the door glass.
Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour
water into the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
Moisture in the cooking compartment: Over an
extended period of time, moisture in the cooking compartment may lead to corrosion. Allow the cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep moist food in the closed cooking compartment for extended periods of time. Do not store food in the cooking compartment.
Cooling with the appliance door open: Following
operation at high temperatures, only allow the cooking compartment to cool down with the door closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door. Even if the door is only left open a crack, the front of nearby furniture may become damaged over time. Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced whilst the oven was operating.
Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies,
do not pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
Extremely dirty seal: If the seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
Appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not
sit on the appliance door, or place or hang anything on it. Do not place any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance
model, accessories can scratch the door panel when closing the appliance door. Always insert the accessories into the cooking compartment as far as they will go.
Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the
appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance and could break.

Steam

Caution!
Baking tins: Ovenware must be heat and steam
resistant. Silicone baking tins are not suitable for combined operation with steam.
Ovenware with areas of rust: Do not use any
ovenware which displays areas of rust. Even the smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking compartment.
Dripping liquids: When steaming with a perforated
cooking container, always insert the baking tray, the universal pan or the solid cooking container underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
Hot water in the water tank: Hot water can damage
the pump. Only fill the water tank with cold water.
Enamel damage: Do not start any operations when
there is water on the cooking compartment floor. Before operation, wipe away the water from the cooking compartment floor.
Descaling solution: Do not allow descaling solution
to come into contact with the control panel or other sensitive surfaces. These will damage the surfaces. If this does happen, remove the descaling solution immediately with water.
Cleaning the water tank: Do not clean the water tank
in the dishwasher. Otherwise, the water tank will be damaged. Clean the water tank with a soft cloth and standard washing-up liquid.

7Environmental protection

Environmental protection

Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here you can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Saving energy

Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the
recipe or in the tables in the operating instructions.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins.
They absorb heat particularly well.
Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
during operation.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The cooking compartment is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can place two cake tins next to each other in the cooking compartment.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the
appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment ­WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Operating modes

Your appliance has various operating modes which make your appliance easier to use.
You can find more precise descriptions of these in the corresponding sections.
You can open the "Operating modes" menu by pressing the menu field.
Display ring
The display ring can be found around the outside of the display.
If you change a value, the display ring shows you where you are in the selection list. Depending on the settings area and length of the selection list, the display ring may be continuous or divided into segments.
During operation, the display ring turns red at second­long intervals. After every full minute, the segments turn red again from the beginning. As the cooking time counts down, one segment disappears every second.
Temperature display
After the operation has started, the current cooking compartment temperature is displayed graphically on the display.
Heating line The white line under the temperature turns red from
left to right as the cooking compartment heats up. When you are preheating the appliance, the optimal time to place the food in the cooking compartment is when the line has completely turned red.
For set levels, e.g. the grill setting, the heating line turns red immediately.
Residual heat indicator
When the appliance is switched off, the display ring shows the residual heat in the cooking compart­ment. As the residual heat cools down, the display ring becomes darker and disappears completely at some point.

time

Before using for the first time

Before you can use your new appliance, you must make some settings. You must also clean the cooking compartment and accessories.

Before using for the first time

Before using the appliance for the first time, enquire about the water hardness of your tap water from your water supplier.
So that the appliance can reliably remind you to decalcify it when required, you must correctly set your water hardness range.

The appliance may become damaged due to the use of unsuitable liquids. Do not use distilled water, highly chlorinated tap water (> 40 mg/l) or other liquids. Only use cold, fresh tap water, softened water or uncarbonated mineral water.
Notes
If your water is very hard, we recommend that you
use softened water.
If you only use softened water, you can set the water
hardness range to "softened" in this case.
If you use mineral water, set the water hardness
range to "4 very hard".
If you use mineral water, you must only use non-
carbonated mineral water.
Water hardness range Setting
