Using the oven safely
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Before replacing the light, ensure that
the oven is switched off to prevent the
possible risk of electric shock.
■ First switch off the oven then unscrew
and/or switch off the fuses.
■ Replace the light only when the oven
is no longer hot.
CAUTION
Health hazard!
The water that melts during defrosting
can contain harmful bacteria, especial-
ly with meat and poultry.
■ Do not defrost meat, poultry and fish
in oven mode.
■ Pour defrost water away. Do not use
it for any other purpose.
■ Thoroughly clean the crockery you
have used.
Risk of burns!
The oven becomes hot during use. You
can burn yourself on heating elements,
the cooking compartment, the cooked
food and accessories.
■ Particular care should be taken to
avoid touching heating elements in-
side the oven.
■ Never operate the oven with the oven
door open. Make sure that the door
seal is tight and that the oven door
closes tightly.
■ When opening the oven door, stand
to the side of the oven and as far
away as possible.
■ Allow the oven to cool down com-
pletely before cleaning.
■ Never pour water directly into the hot
oven. The steam can cause scalding
and damage the enamel.
■ Allow hot water from the oven to cool
before pouring it out.
Fire hazard!
Insufficient air circulation can lead to
overheating.
■ Do not install the oven behind a dec-
orative door or a cabinet door.
■ Never cover or obstruct fan openings.
Objects in and near the oven when it is
switched on could start to burn due to
the high temperatures.
■ Do not cover cakes or roasts being
cooked in the oven with baking parch-
ment.
■ If you are preparing foods in oil, fat or
using alcohol, do not leave the oven
unattended. The food may spontane-
ously ignite.
■ Do not allow food, baking parchment
and aluminium foil to come into con-
tact with the heating elements.
■ Do not store temperature-sensitive,
combustible or flammable objects in
the oven. If the appliance is switched
on unintentionally they may deform
or ignite.
■ Do not use the oven for storage pur-
poses.
■ Never use the oven to heat rooms.
■ If a fire breaks out in the oven, keep
the oven door closed and switch off
the oven. Once the fire has been ex-
tinguished, have the oven checked by
our Service.
