Safety instructions
• In the event of a malfunction or damage to the mains cable
or other elementary components, do not continue to use
the appliance and immediately disconnect it from the pow-
er supply by releasing the fuse in order to avoid associated
dangers.
Otherwise there is a risk of life-threatening electric shock!
This applies in particular to damage where internal compo-
nents can become freely accessible.
• To avoid damage to the power cable and associated ha-
zards, ensure that it is not bent or crushed during installati-
on and grasp the plug to pull it out of the socket.
• Replacement of the mains cable and repairs, as well as
maintenance on the appliance, may only be carried out by
a certified electrician.
Never attempt to make any changes to the appliance, its
cable or the mains plug yourself and do not disassemble it.
• To avoid possible electric shocks due to creeping current,
do not operate the appliance with wet or damp hands and
wear footwear during operation.
• Moisture penetration may cause a short circuit or electric
shock.
Do not use pressure washers or steam cleaners to clean the
appliance.
Risk of burns
• During and even after use, the accessible parts of this appli-
ance are very hot and can cause burns.
Be careful not to touch the heated surfaces, especially the
heating elements and inner surfaces of the cooking cham-
ber, with your body, clothing or objects and keep children
away from the appliance.
• Accessories and dishes become very hot when the oven is
in operation. Always protect yourself from burns, e.g. by
using oven gloves to remove something from the heated
cooking space.
• When opening the appliance door during or after operati-
on, hot steam may escape and may not be visible depen-
ding on the temperature.
To avoid injury, always grip the door handle in the middle
and keep your distance from the edges of the door.
• Do not pour water into the hot cooking chamber.
This will produce hot steam which can cause injury.
The resulting temperature change can also damage the
enamel coating.

Fire hazard
• Do not store highly flammable or explosive substances
near the oven to avoid fire hazard due to increased ambi-
ent temperature during operation.
• Alcohol vapours can catch fire in the hot cooking chamber.
Only heat small amounts of food with a high alcohol con-
tent. Open the appliance door carefully.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use!
Food can burn, cause harmful smoke or catch fire.
Heated food containing fat, oil or alcohol can ignite quickly.
• Remove coarse soiling from the cooking chamber, heating
elements and accessories before operation.
Loose food residues, fat and gravy can catch fire.
• Never leave flammable objects in the cooking chamber.
These may catch fire, melt, deform or be damaged when
the cooking chamber heats up.
• Baking paper etc. can catch fire if it comes into contact
with the heating elements.
Always make sure that it does not protrude, cut it to size
if necessary and load it so that it cannot be moved,
e.g. by the air circulation of the fan or the draught when
opening the door.
• If there is a fire or smoke in the cooking chamber, do not
open the appliance door.
Switch off the appliance and disconnect the mains plug or
turn off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
Have the appliance checked by a certified electrician after
it has cooled down.
