Causes of damage
Hob
Overview
The following table provides an overview of the most frequent kinds of damage:
Caution!
Rough pot and pan bases scratch the ceramic.
Avoid boiling pots dry. This may cause damage.
Never place hot pots or pans on the control panel, the
display area or the surround. This may cause damage.
Damage can occur if hard or pointed objects fall on the hob.
Aluminium foil and plastic containers melt on hot hotplates.
Oven protective foil is not suitable for your hob.
Damage Cause Action
Stains Food spills Remove spills immediately with a glass scraper.
Unsuitable cleaning agents Only use cleaning agents which are suitable for ceramic
Scratches Salt, sugar and sand Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space.

ceramic.
Discolouration Unsuitable cleaning agents Only use cleaning agents which are suitable for ceramic
Pan abrasion (e.g. aluminium) Lift the pots and pans when moving them.
Blisters Sugar, food with a high sugar content Remove spills immediately with a glass scraper.
Oven
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. This will cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
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.
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.
Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking
compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods This will damage the enamel.
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.
Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the cooking
compartment to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance door is only open a little, front panels of adjacent units could be damaged over time.
Heavily soiled oven seal: if the oven seal is heavily soiled, the
oven door will no longer close properly when the oven is in operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the oven seal clean.
Oven door as a bearing surface: do not stand or place
objects on the oven door when it is open. Do not hang objects on the oven door.
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.
Heavy accessories: do not pull out heavily laden accessories
too far without first unloading them sufficiently. Heavy accessories will tip when pulled out. This causes pressure to be exerted on the shelf supports in the cooking compartment, which can damage the enamel. Relieve the strain on the accessories when they are pulled out by raising them slightly with one hand. Caution: always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when handling hot accessories.
Storage compartment
Caution!
Do not place hot objects in the storage compartment. It could be damaged.

Care and cleaning

With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.

Notes

Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.

: Risk of electric shock!

Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners, which can result in an electric shock.

: Risk of burns!

The appliance becomes very hot. Never touch the interior surfaces of the cooking compartment or the heating elements. Always allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children at a safe distance.

Cleaning agents

Observe the following information to ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using the wrong type of cleaning agent.
Do not
use
undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,
abrasive materials, scouring sponges,
aggressive cleaners such as oven spray or stain removers,
high-pressure cleaners or steam jet cleaners on the hob.
Clean the hob after each use. This will prevent spills from burning onto the ceramic.
Only clean the hob when it has cooled down sufficiently.
Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for glass ceramic. Follow the cleaning instructions on the packaging.
Ground-in dirt can be best removed with a glass scraper, available from retailers. Please note the manufacturer's instructions.
Only use
warm, soapy water
on the hob surround.
Do not use abrasive materials, scouring sponges,
aggressive cleaners such as oven spray or stain removers,
or glass scrapers.
Do not
use
any harsh or abrasive cleaning agents,
cleaning agents with a high concentration of alcohol,
hard scouring pads or sponges,
high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners on the oven.
Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.

Catalytic cooking compartment panels

The catalytic cooking compartment panels are coated with self­cleaning enamel.
The surfaces clean themselves while the oven is in operation. Larger splashes will only be removed after the oven has been used several times.
The rear and side walls are covered with catalytic panelling. Never clean these surfaces with oven cleaner. Slight discolouration of the enamel does not affect self-cleaning.

Energy and environment tips

Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and roasting in the oven and when cooking on the hob, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Saving energy with your oven

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

Saving energy with the hob

Use pots and pans with thick, even bases. Uneven bases
increase energy consumption.
The diameter of pan bases should be the same size as the
hotplate. In particular, small saucepans on the hotplate cause energy losses. Note that cookware manufacturers often indicate the upper diameter of the saucepan. This is usually bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.
Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger, less full
saucepan requires a lot of energy.
Always place suitable lids on saucepans. When cooking
without a lid, four times the energy is required.
Cook with only a little water. This will save energy. Vitamins
and minerals in vegetables are preserved.
Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.
Use the residual heat. For longer cooking times, you can
switch the hotplate off 5-10 minutes before the end of the cooking time.

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.
