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.
¡
Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may
cause sparks, which will damage the appliance.
▶
Do not use aluminium containers in the appli-
ance.

Environmental protection and
saving energy
Help protect the environment by using your appliance
in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of
reusable materials properly.
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.
Information about current disposal methods are
available from your specialist dealer or local author-
ity.
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.
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 will maintain the temperature in the cooking
compartment and eliminate the need for the appli-
ance to reheat.
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 will save the energy that would otherwise be
required to defrost it.
