2 Preventing material damage
2.1 General
ATTENTION!
Alcoholic vapours may catch fire in the hot cooking
compartment and cause permanent damage to the ap-
pliance. The appliance door may spring open due to
an explosion and it may fall off. The door panels may
shatter and fragment. Due to the resulting negative
pressure, the cooking compartment may become con-
siderably deformed inwards.
Do not heat spirits (≥ 15% vol.) when undiluted (e.g.
▶
for marinating or pouring over food).
If there is water on the cooking compartment floor
when operating the appliance at temperatures above
120 °C, this will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance if there is water on the
▶
cooking compartment floor.
Wipe away any water on the cooking compartment
▶
floor before operation.
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 under 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. To
▶
do this, open the cooking compartment door com-
pletely or use the drying function.
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.
▶
Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
▶
door.
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.

Microwave energy will escape from appli-
ances that do not have any casing.
▶ Never remove the casing.
▶ Contact our after-sales service if mainten-
ance or repair work is needed.
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 com-
▶
partment 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 dam-
age 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, hang or support objects on the appli-
▶
ance door.
Do not place cookware or accessories on the appli-
▶
ance door.
With certain models, accessories may scratch the door
pane when closing the appliance door.
Always push accessories fully into the cooking com-
▶
partment.
If aluminium foil comes into contact with the door pane,
it could cause permanent discolouration.
Do not allow aluminium foil in the cooking compart-
▶
ment to come into contact with the door pane.
2.2 Microwave
Follow these instructions when using the microwave.
ATTENTION!
Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment
will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or
the inner door pane.
Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least
▶
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the
inside of the door.
Using accessories directly on top of one another
causes sparks.
Do not combine the wire rack with the universal
▶
pan.
Always place accessories on different levels.
▶
The universal pan and baking tray are not suitable for
use with microwave-only mode. Using either of these
may create sparks, which will damage the cooking
compartment.
Place accessories on the wire rack supplied.
▶
Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may
cause sparks, which will damage the appliance.
Do not use aluminium containers in the appliance.
