IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10
Broiling food for an excessively long time can cause it to dry out
with the risk of catching fire.
Do not exceed recommended broiling times.
Some foods dry out very quickly and can be ignited by high
broiling temperatures. Do not use broiling functions for crisping rolls
or bread, or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead use the Convection
Bake
or Surround
functions.
Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances,
combust on the hot heating elements.
Plastic containers, which are not heat-resistant, melt and may
ignite at high temperatures and can damage the oven. Use only
plastic containers that are indicated by the manufacturer as being
suitable for use in ovens.
When residual heat is used to keep food warm, the high level of
humidity and condensation can cause damage in the oven. The
control panel, countertop or cabinetry may also be damaged.
Do not switch the oven off completely while food is inside it, but
select the lowest possible temperature for the oven function you are
using. This will ensure the fan will automatically continue to run.
It is recommended to cover all cooked food that is left in the oven
to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the
interior of the oven.
To avoid damage, do not place aluminum foil, pots, pans or
baking sheets directly on the oven floor. This can cause a build up of
heat that will damage the oven floor.
Do not slide pots or pans on the oven floor. This could scratch
and damage the surface.
