2  Preventing material damage

2.1 General

ATTENTION!
Objects on the cooking compartment floor at over 50°C will cause heat to build up. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Do not place any accessories, greaseproof paper or
foil of any kind on the cooking compartment floor.
Only place cookware on the cooking compartment
floor if a temperature above 50°C has been set. When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-
side it will create steam. The change in temperature may cause damage.
Never pour water into the cooking compartment
when it is still hot.
Never place cookware containing water on the
cooking compartment floor. The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking
compartment leads to corrosion.
Allow the cooking compartment to dry after use.
Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment
for a long time with the door closed.
Do not store food in the cooking compartment. Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open
will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over time.
Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
down with the door closed after cooking at high
temperatures.
Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
door.
Do not touch the glass cover.
Avoid contact with your skin when cleaning.
WARNING‒Risk of electric shock!
When changing the bulb, the bulb socket con­tacts are live.
Before replacing the bulb, ensure that the appliance is switched off in order to pre­vent a potential electric shock.
Also unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the door open if a lot of moisture was produced during operation.
Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed.
When baking very juicy fruit flans, do not pack too much on the baking tray.
If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment damages the enamel.
Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment when it is still warm.
Remove all food remnants from the cooking com­partment and the appliance door before you next heat up the appliance.
If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. This may dam­age the front of adjacent kitchen units.
Keep the seal clean at all times.
Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may damage it.
Do not place or hang objects on the appliance door.
Do not place cookware or accessories on the appli­ance door.
With certain models, accessories may scratch the door pane when closing the appliance door.
Always push accessories fully into the cooking com­partment.

Environmental protection and saving energy en

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 en-
¡
ergy used by up to 20%.
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins.
These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
¡
larly 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.
