2 Preventing material damage
2.1 Oven area
Follow the corresponding instructions when using the
oven.
ATTENTION!
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 above 50 °C has been set.
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.
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.
▶
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.
▶
Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open
will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over
time.
Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
▶
down with the door closed after cooking at high
temperatures.
Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
▶
door.
Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the
▶
door open if a lot of moisture was produced during
operation.
