Safety
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
Improper use may damage the oven or
cooking utensils.
■
Do not place trays or aluminium foil
directly on the base of the cooking
chamber. It may cause heat to build
up inside and damage the oven’s
enamel. If you wish to place dishes
directly on the bottom of the cooking
compartment, the oven temperature
must not exceed 50 °C. Be careful
when handling cookware – the enam-
el can be easily scratched.
■
When preserving, place only so many
preserving jars in the dripping pan
that none of them touch. Otherwise,
the jars can crack and burst.
■
If a trolley is used to move the oven, it
must be lifted as shown on the pack-
aging.
■
Do not lift the entire oven by the oven
door handle. The handle is not de-
signed to carry the whole weight of
the oven.
■
The oven door is heavy and has a
glass front. Do not allow the door to
fall open when taking it off its hinges.
■
Take particular care to ensure that
the door seals are clean. If the seal is
very dirty, the appliance door will no
longer close properly. Neighbouring
furniture fronts may be damaged.
■
The door seals are sensitive to oil and
grease – making the rubber porous
and brittle.
■
Do not remove the door seals.
■
Do not use any harsh, abrasive clean-
ers or sharp metal scrapers to clean
the glass on the oven door, as they
can scratch the surface and destroy
the glass.
■
When cleaning the cooking cham-
ber, do not use steel wool, oven
sprays, steam cleaners or high-pres-
sure cleaners. They can damage the
surface. High-pressure cleaners can
cause a short circuit.
■
Do not clean baking tray guides and
telescopic rails in the dishwasher.
Specific risks when grilling
CAUTION
Risk of burns!
■
Never leave the oven unattended
while grilling. Keep children away!
Fire hazard!
■
Do not place food to be grilled too far
back near the end of the heating ele-
ment. It is particularly hot there. Fat-
ty foods can catch fi re.
Specific risks for units with a
cooling fan
CAUTION
A defective cooling fan can cause fur-
ther damage to the oven and cause
fl ammable objects in the vicinity to
catch fi re.
■
If this happens, switch off the ap-
pliance immediately, open the oven
door and do not use the oven again
until it has been repaired!
