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 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
▶
of them separately.
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 43
¡ 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.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
¡ This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment and eliminates the need for the appliance
to reheat.

2.3 Steam
Follow these instructions when using the steam func-
tion.
ATTENTION!
Using cookware with rust spots may cause corrosion in
the cooking compartment. Even the smallest spots of
rust can cause corrosion.
Do not use cookware with rust spots.
▶
Hot water in the water tank may damage the steam
system.
Only fill the water tank with cold water.
▶
If there is water on the cooking compartment floor
when operating the appliance at temperatures above
120 °C, this will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance if there is water on the
▶
cooking compartment floor.
Wipe away any water on the cooking compartment
▶
floor before operation.
A lot of steam is produced during operation with the
types of steam heating. Condensate that collects in the
drip trough underneath the cooking compartment may
overflow and damage adjacent units.
Do not open the appliance door, or open it as infre-
▶
quently as possible, while the appliance is in opera-
tion.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
▶
Cleaning the water tank in the dishwasher will damage
it.
Do not clean the water tank in the dishwasher.
▶
Clean the water tank with a soft cloth and standard
▶
washing-up liquid.
When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or
in parallel.
¡ The cooking compartment is heated after baking
the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the
second cake.
If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch
the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time
ends.
¡ There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking
the dish.
Remove any accessories that are not being used from
the cooking compartment.
¡ Accessories that are not being used do not need to
be heated.
Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking.
¡ This saves the energy that would otherwise be re-
quired to defrost it.
Switch off the display in the basic settings.
→ "Basic settings", Page 29
¡ Energy is saved when the display is switched off.
Heat two glasses or cups of liquid at the same time.
¡ Heating several dishes at the same time requires
less energy than heating dishes one after the other.
