Operating Instructions
1 Safety instructions
Electrical safety
This appliance must be only connected by a registered electrician.
In the event of a fault or damage to the appliance: Take the fuses out or switch off.
Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by qualified service engineers.
Considerable danger may result from improper repairs. If repairs become necessary,
please contact our Customer Services or your dealer.
Child Safety
Never leave children unsupervised when the appliance is in use.
Safety during use
This appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons whose physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them
from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction by a responsible
person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely.
This appliance should be used only for normal domestic cooking, roasting and baking
of food.
Be careful if connecting electrical appliances to sockets near to this appliance. Electri-
cal leads must not be caught under the hot oven door.
Warning: Risk of burns! The oven interior becomes hot during use.
If you use ingredients containing alcohol in the oven, a slightly flammable mixture of
alcohol and air may ensue. In this case, be careful when opening the door. Do not
handle any sources of heat, sparks or naked flames when doing so.
3 Information on acrylamides
According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of food, especially in
products containing starch, can constitute a health risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we
recommend cooking at the lowest possible temperatures and not browning foods too
much.
How to avoid damage to the appliance
Do not place aluminium foil over the floor of the oven and do not place baking trays,
pans etc. on the floor as the resulting build-up of heat can damage the oven enamel.
Fruit juices which drip from baking trays leave stains which cannot be removed. Use a
deep tray for very moist cakes.
Do not place loads on the open oven carriage door.
Never pour water directly into the oven when it is hot. This could cause damage and
discoloration to the enamel.
Rough handling, especially around the edges of the front panel, can cause the glass to
break.
Do not store any flammable materials inside the oven. These could ignite when the
oven is switched on.
Description of the Appliance4
Do not store any moist foods inside the oven. This could cause damage to the enamel.
After switching off the cooling fan, do not keep uncovered dishes in the oven. Mois-
ture may condense in the oven interior or on the glass doors and may get into the
units.
3 Note on enamel coating
Changes in the colour of the oven’s enamel coating as a result of use do not affect the
appliance’s suitability for normal and correct use. They therefore do not constitute a de-
fect in the sense of the warranty law.
