ã=Safety precautions

Please read this instruction manual carefully. Please keep the instruction and installation manuals in a safe place. Please pass on these manuals to the new owner if you sell the appliance.

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.

Hot cooking compartment

Risk of burns!
Never touch the interior surfaces of the cooking compartment
or the heating elements. Open the appliance door carefully. Hot steam may escape. Small children must be kept at a safe distance from the appliance.
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 open the appliance door carefully.
Risk of fire!
Never store combustible items in the cooking compartment.
Never open the appliance door if there is smoke inside. Switch off the appliance. Pull out the mains plug or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
Do not place greaseproof paper loosely over accessories
during preheating. A draught is created when the appliance door is opened. The greaseproof paper may come into contact with the heating element and catch fire. Always weight down the greaseproof paper with a dish or a baking tin. Only cover the surface required with greaseproof paper. The greaseproof paper must not protrude over the accessories.

Hot accessories and ovenware

Risk of burns!
Never remove ovenware or accessories from the cooking compartment without an oven cloth or oven gloves.

Improper repairs

Risk of electric shock!
Improper repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out by one of our trained after-sales 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!

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.
Heavily soiled oven seal: if the oven seal is heavily soiled, the
oven door will no longer close properly when the oven is in operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the oven seal clean.
Oven door as a bearing surface: do not stand or place
objects on the oven door when it is open. Do not place ovenware or accessories on the oven door.
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.
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 hot cooking compartment. This will produce hot steam.

When the oven is heating, the indicator lamp above the temperature selector lights up. It goes out during heating pauses.

Temperature indicator

The Æ main oven has a temperature indicator. The five bars in the display above the temperature selector are
used to indicate the temperature. They show the heating phases and the residual heat in the cooking compartment.
Heating phases
After the appliance is started, the temperature indicator shows the heating phases. When all the bars are filled, the set temperature has been reached.
The bars do not appear when settings are made for grilling and cleaning.
Residual heat
When the appliance is switched off, the temperature indicator shows the residual heat in the cooking compartment. If all the bars are filled, the temperature in the cooking compartment is approximately 300 °C. Once the temperature has dropped to approximately 60 °C, the display goes out.
For dishes with a long cooking time, you can switch the oven off 5-10 minutes before the end of the cooking time. The dish will continue to cook with the residual heat. This saves energy.
5

Cooking compartment

The oven light is located in the cooking compartment. A cooling fan protects the oven from overheating.
Oven light
During operation, the oven light in the cooking compartment is on. When temperatures up to 60 °C are selected, the light remains switched off. This enables precise temperature regulation.
The
\ setting on the function selector can be used to switch
on the light without heating the oven.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan switches on and off as required. The hot air escapes above the door. Caution: do not cover the ventilation slots. Otherwise the oven will overheat.
So that the cooking compartment cools down more quickly after operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a certain period afterwards.

Shelf positions

You can pull out the accessories two thirds of the way without them tipping. This allows meals to be removed easily.
The accessories may become deformed when they become hot. As soon as they have cooled down, the deformation disappears with no effect on the function.
Main oven
The accessories can be inserted into the oven at 5 different levels.
Æ
Top oven
The accessories can be inserted into the oven at 2 different levels.
