en Environmental protection and saving energy

3  Environmental protection and saving energy

Help protect the environment by using your appliance in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of reusable materials properly.

3.1 Disposing of packaging

The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.

Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.

Information about current disposal methods are available from your specialist dealer or local authority.

3.2 Saving energy

If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power.

Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so.

¡Not preheating the appliance can reduce the energy used by up to 20%.

Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins.

¡These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly well.

Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation.

¡This will maintain the temperature in the cooking compartment and eliminate the need for the appliance to reheat.

When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel.

¡The cooking compartment is heated after baking the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the second cake.

If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends.

¡There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the dish.

Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment.

¡Accessories that are not being used do not need to be heated.

Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.

¡This will save the energy that would otherwise be required to defrost it.
