Causes of damage

Caution!
Baking tray, greaseproof paper, aluminium foil or ovenware
■
on the cooking compartment floor. Do not place baking trays
or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor. Do not line
the cooking compartment floor with aluminium foil. This will
cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will
no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Water in the hot cooking compartment. Never pour water into
■
the hot cooking compartment. This will cause steam. The
temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
Moist food. Do not store moist food in the closed cooking
■
compartment for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance to store food. This can lead to
corrosion.
Fruit juice. When cooking very moist fruit flans, do not fill the
■
universal pan too generously. Fruit juice which runs out of the
universal pan leaves behind stains which cannot be removed.
Risk of scalding!
Never pour water into the hot cooking compartment. This will
produce hot steam.
Hot accessories and ovenware
Risk of burns!
Never remove ovenware or accessories from the cooking
compartment without an oven cloth or oven gloves.

■
handle. The appliance will become very hot on the outside
during the Self-cleaning cycle. Keep children at a safe
