Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use

Risk of injury caused by hot surfaces and steam. The steam oven
gets hot during operation. You could burn yourself on the oven
compartment, shelf runners, accessories, food or steam.
Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven or removing it, and
when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.

Risk of injury caused by hot food.
Food may spill or splash around when placing it into the oven or
removing it. The food can cause burns.
When placing cooking containers in the oven or removing them,
make sure that the hot food does not spill.

Risk of injury due to hot water.
At the end of a cooking programme, hot water left in the steam
generator is pumped back into the water container. Take care not to
tip the water container when taking it out of the appliance.

Do not use the steam oven to heat up or bottle food in sealed tins.
Pressure will build up inside them and they can explode causing
damage to the appliance, as well as the risk of injury and scalding.

Plastic dishes which are not heat-resistant and steam-resistant
melt at high temperatures and can damage the appliance.
Use only heat-resistant (to 100 °C) and steam-resistant plastic
dishes. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Food which is left in the oven compartment can dry out and the
moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the steam oven.
Do not leave food in the oven compartment and do not use any
cooking containers which are susceptible to corrosion.

Risk of injury from the open door. You could bang into the open
door or trip over it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
