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. To
do this, open the cooking compartment door com-
pletely or use the drying function.
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.
Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
door.
Fruit juice dripping from the baking tray leaves stains
that cannot be removed.

much on the baking tray.
If possible, use the deeper universal pan.
Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment
damages the enamel.
Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment
when it is still warm.
Remove all food remnants from the cooking com-
partment and the appliance door before you next
heat up the appliance.

or missing.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may
damage it.

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.
2.2 Microwave
Follow these instructions when using the microwave.
ATTENTION!
Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment
will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or
the inner door pane.
Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the
inside of the door.
Using accessories directly on top of one another
causes sparks.
Do not combine the wire rack with the universal
pan.
Always place accessories on different levels.
The universal pan and baking tray are not suitable for
use with microwave-only mode. Using either of these
may create sparks, which will damage the cooking
compartment.
Place accessories on the wire rack supplied.
Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may
cause sparks, which will damage the appliance.
Do not use aluminium containers in the appliance.
Operating the appliance without food in the cooking
compartment may lead to overloading.
Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food
inside. The only exception to this rule is when per-
forming a short cookware test.
If you prepare microwave popcorn at a microwave
power level that is too high, the door pane may crack
due to overloading.
Never set a microwave power level that is too high.
Use a maximum microwave output of 600 watts.
Always place the popcorn bag on a glass plate.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recom-
mended settings tell you to do so.
→ "How it works", Page 36
¡ Not preheating the appliance can reduce the en-
ergy used by up to 20%.
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking
tins.
¡ These types of baking tin absorb the heat particu-
larly well.
