ã=Safety precautions
Read these instructions for use carefully. Please keep the instructions for use and installation instructions in a safe place. If the appliance changes owners, the instructions should always be included.

Before installation

Damage during transport

Check the appliance for damage after unpacking it. Do not connect the appliance if it has been damaged in transit.

Electrical connection

Only a licensed expert may connect the appliance. You will lose your warranty entitlement in the event of any damage caused by incorrect connection.

Safety notes

This appliance is intended for domestic use only. This appliance must only be used for food preparation.
Adults and children must not operate the appliance without supervision,
if they are physically or mentally incapable of doing so or
if they have insufficient knowledge or experience.
Never let children play with the appliance.
Risk of burning!
Never touch the internal surfaces of the cooking compartment or the heating elements when they are hot. Open the appliance door carefully. Hot steam may escape. Small children must be kept at a safe distance from the appliance.
Risk of fire!
Never store combustible items in the cooking compartment. Never open the appliance door if smoke can be seen in the appliance. Switch off the appliance. Pull out the mains plug or disconnect the fuse in the fuse box.
Risk of short circuit!
Never trap connecting cables of electrical appliances in the hot appliance door. The cable insulation could melt.
Risk of scalding!
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will create hot steam.
Risk of burning!
Never prepare food containing large quantities of drinks with a high alcohol content. Alcoholic vapours can catch fire in the cooking compartment. Only use small quantities of drinks with a high alcohol content and take care when opening the appliance door.
Risk of burning!
Never remove hot accessories or ovenware from the cooking compartment without oven gloves.
Risk of electric shock!
Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out by one of our trained aftersales engineers. If the appliance is defective, pull out the mains plug or switch off the appliance at the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Call the aftersales service.

Causes of damage

Caution!
Do not place accessories on the cooking compartment floor.
Do not line the cooking compartment floor with foil of any kind or greaseproof paper. Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a temperature of over 50 ºC is set.This will cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is
hot. This will create steam. The temperature change can damage the enamel.
Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment
for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
When baking very moist fruit flan, do not put too much on the
baking tray. Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
Only leave the cooking compartment to cool with the door
closed. Even if the appliance door is only slightly open, the fronts of adjacent units may be damaged over time.
If the oven seal is very dirty, the oven door will no longer
close properly when the oven is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the oven seal clean.
Do not stand or sit on the open oven door. Do not place
cookware or accessories on the oven door.
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.

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.

Shelf positions

The individual shelf units can be inserted into your preferred shelf positions. This simple insertion system allows flexible and quick handling when changing shelves.
Note: When baking and roasting with CircoTherm® 3, do not use shelf position 2. This will adversely affect air circulation and your baking and roasting results will not be as good.
Bottom oven

The cooking compartment in the bottom oven has four shelf positions.

Accessories

The following accessories are supplied with your appliance:
Enamelled universal pan for baking moist cakes, roasting, grilling and collecting dripping liquids
Wire rack, stepped, close-meshed For baking, roasting and grilling, can be inserted in the universal pan
Wire rack, flat, with tilt protection For baking

Top ovenô

The cooking compartment of the top oven has two shelf positions.

Slide the flat wire racks in so that the rear upstand, for preventing items sliding off the back of the shelf, is at the rear and facing upwards (see illustration below). Otherwise, the tilt protection feature will not work properly.
