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.
–
We recommend you use a mineral water low in
chloride and without added carbonic acid if your
tap water contains large amounts of chloride
(>40 mg/l). You can inquire with your local water
supply company to obtain information about your
tap water.
–
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant.
Silicone baking tins are not suitable for combined
operation with steam.
–
Use only original accessories in the cooking
compartment. Rusting material (such as serving
platters or knives and forks) can cause corrosion in
the oven interior.
–
Use original small parts (e.g. knurled nuts) only.
Order small parts from our after-sales service if
these should be lost.
–
Dripping liquids: When steaming with a perforated
cooking container, always insert the baking tray, the
universal pan 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.
–
Salt, spicy sauces (e.g. ketchup or mustard) or
salted dishes (e.g. cured roast) contain chloride
and acids. These corrode the surfaces of stainless
steel. Always remove residues immediately.
–
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.
–
Improper care of the appliance may lead to
corrosion in the cooking compartment. Refer to the
care and cleaning instructions in the instruction
manual. Clean the cooking compartment each time
you use it as soon as the appliance has cooled
down. After cleaning the cooking compartment, use
the drying programme to dry it.
–
Do not detach the door seal. The appliance door
will no longer close properly if the door seal is
damaged. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Have the door seal replaced.
–
Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door
handle. The door handle cannot support the weight
of the appliance, and could break.
Environmental protection
Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here
you can find tips on how to save even more energy when
using the appliance, and how to dispose of your
appliance properly.
Saving energy
▯
Open the appliance door as little as possible while
cooking.
▯
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins
for baking. They absorb the heat particularly well.
▯
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The oven will still be hot. This reduces the baking
time for the second cake. You can also place two
loaf tins next to each other.
▯
For longer cooking times, you can switch off the
steam oven 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and you can use the residual heat to
finish cooking.
▯
When steaming, you can cook simultaneously on
several levels. If dishes require different cooking
times, insert the dishes that require the longest
time first.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
