Causes of damage
Caution!
■
Do not place anything on the cooking compartment floor. Do
not cover it with aluminium foil. A build-up of heat could
damage the appliance.
The cooking compartment floor and the evaporator dish must
always be kept clear. Always place ovenware in a perforated
cooking container or on a wire rack.
■
Aluminium foil in the cooking compartment must not come
into contact with the door panel. This could cause permanent
discolouration of the door panel.
■
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant.
■
Do not use ovenware that shows signs of rust. Even the
smallest spots of rust can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■
When steaming with a perforated cooking container, always
insert the baking tray or the solid cooking container
underneath. Dripping liquid is caught.
■
Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment
for long periods. It can lead to corrosion in the cooking
compartment.
■
Fruit juice may leave stains in the cooking compartment.
Always remove fruit juice immediately and wipe the cooking
compartment with a moist and dry cloth.
■
If the door seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer
close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units
could be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean and
replace when necessary.
■
The cooking compartment in your appliance is made of high
grade stainless steel. Improper care can lead to corrosion in
the cooking compartment. Refer to the care and cleaning
instructions in the instruction manual. Remove food residues
from the cooking compartment as soon as the appliance has
cooled.
