Damage to the 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 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. Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing. ~ "Cleaning" on page 17

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.

6

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.

Grilling: do not insert the baking tray or universal pan higher than level 3 when grilling. The high heat distorts it and the enamel may be damaged when it is removed. At level 4 and 5, only grill directly on the wire rack.

Damage to the plinth drawer

Caution!

Do not place hot objects in the plinth drawer. It could be damaged.

Environmental protection

en

7Environmental 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.

Leave frozen food to defrost before placing it in the cooking compartment.

Use baking tins that are dark-coloured, painted black or have an enamel coating. These absorb the heat particularly well.

Remove any unnecessary accessories from the cooking compartment.

7

en Environmental protection

Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible when the appliance is in use.

It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking compartment stays 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.

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.

8

5Installation and connection

Do not install the appliance behind a decorative door or the door of a kitchen unit, as this may cause the appliance to overheat.

Electrical connection

Only licensed specialists may connect the appliance.It is important that you comply with the requirements of your electricity supplier.

Any damage arising from the appliance being connected incorrectly will invalidate the warranty.

Caution!

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

:Warning – Danger of death!

There is a risk of electric shock if you touch live components.

Always make sure your hands are dry when you touch or hold the mains plug.

Only pull out the mains cable by taking hold of the plug and removing the plug; never pull it out by the mains cable itself, as this could damage it.

Never unplug the mains plug when the appliance is in operation.

Please note the following information and ensure that:

Notes

The mains plug fits the socket.

The cable cross section is adequate.

The earthing system is properly installed.

The mains cable is only replaced by a qualified electrician (if this is necessary).Spare mains cables can be ordered from our after-sales service.

No power strips/multi-way connectors or extension cables are used.

If using a residual current device, only use one that bears the mark z.

The presence of this mark is the only way to be sure that it fulfils all the applicable regulations.

The mains plug can be accessed at all times.

The mains cable is not kinked, crushed, modified or severed.

The mains cable does not come into contact with heat sources.

For the installer

An all-pole isolating switch with a contact gap of at least 3 mm must be present in the installation circuit. This is not necessary if the appliance is connected by a plug that is accessible to the user.

Electrical safety: The cooker corresponds to safety class I and may only be used in conjunction with a safety earth terminal.

A type H 05 VV-F or equally rated lead must be used to connect the appliance.

Installation and connection

en

Adjacent units

Any adjacent units must not be made of flammable materials. The fronts of any adjacent units must be heatresistant up to at least 90 °C.

Wall fixing

To prevent the cooker from tipping over, you must fix it to the wall using the enclosed bracket. Please observe the installation instructions for fixing the oven to the wall.

Door lock

To prevent children reaching into the oven when it is hot, the oven door is equipped with a lock. It is located at the top of the oven door.

Opening the oven door

Press the lock upwards (picture A).

Removing the door lock

If the door safety lock is no longer needed or if it is soiled:

1.Opening the oven door

2.Unscrew the screw and remove the door lock (picture B).

3. Close the oven door.

Measures to be noted during transport

Secure all mobile parts in and on the appliance using an adhesive tape that can be removed without leaving any traces. Push all accessories (e.g. baking tray) into the corresponding slots with cardboard at the edges, in order to avoid damaging the appliance. Place cardboard or similar between the front and rear side to prevent knocks against the inside of the glass door. Secure the door and, if available, the top cover to the appliance sides using adhesive tape.
