Causes of damage
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.
■ 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.
■ Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly when the
appliance is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged.Always keep the door 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.
Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Note: For this appliance, an energy consumption value has
been established that meets DIN EN 50304/DIN EN 60350.
This energy consumption value is 30% below that for energy
efficiency class A.
Depending on the appliance equipment, the additional
NeffLight® lighting was switched off while measuring
(see section: Switching off NeffLight®).
Saving energy
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 appliance door as little as possible during cooking,
baking or roasting.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking
compartment is still warm. This may reduce the baking time for
the second cake.
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.
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.

compartment
■ the shelf positions
■ the optional accessories
Accessories
The following accessories are included with your appliance:
Wire rack
for baking in baking tins, roasting in
roasting dishes and grilling
Universal pan, enamelled
for baking moist cakes, roasting,
grilling and collecting drops of
liquid during cooking
Insert grid
for roasting and grilling
Note: The wire insert is always used
together with the universal pan. In
this combination, the wire insert is
placed in the universal pan.
Note: The baking tray and universal pan may become distorted
when the appliance is in operation. This is caused by the
considerable temperature differences acting on the
accessories. These differences may occur if only a part of the
accessory is covered with food, or if frozen items such as pizza
are placed on the accessory.
When inserting the baking tray or the universal pan, check
■ that the lug (a) is in the rear part of the of the accessory
■ that the sloping edge of the accessory faces towards the
appliance door when it is inserted
