Caution: Burns hazard!
䡲
The appliance gets very hot when in use.
䡲
Heat is produced during cooking and baking. The appliance door, espe-
cially the glass, can get hot. Burns hazard – do not touch. Keep children
away!
䡲
The appliance will remain hot for some time after it is switched off and will
cool down only slowly to room temperature. Please allow sufficient time for
the appliance to cool down before, for instance, cleaning it.

Steam and water droplets may escape from the cooking space when the
appliance door is opened. Do not put your hands into the cooking space
if there is steam in it!

Hot steam may escape from the steam vent during operation.
䡲
Overheated fat and oil can easily catch fire. Heating oil in the cooking
space to sear meat is dangerous and should not be done. Never try to ex-
tinguish burning oil or fat with water – danger of explosion!
Smother the flames with a fire blanket and keep all doors and windows
closed.
䡲
Do not pour spirits (e.g. brandy, whisky, schnapps, etc.) over hot food –
danger of explosion!

Do not leave the appliance unsupervised when drying herbs, bread, mush-
rooms, etc. If the foodstuff dries out too much, this can pose a fire hazard.

If you notice smoke possibly coming from the appliance itself or from in-
side the cooking space, keep the appliance door closed. Disconnect the
appliance from the power supply.

Accessories such as wire shelves and trays, etc. get hot in the cooking
space. Always wear protective gloves or use oven cloths.
