Preventing material damage
2.1 General information
NOTICE:
A build-up of heat could damage the appliance.
▶ Do not place anything directly on the oven cavity floor.
▶ Do not line the oven cavity floor with aluminum foil.
▶ Always place cookware in a perforated cooking con-
tainer or on a wire rack.
Chlorinated tap water (>40mg/l) may damage the appli-
ance.
▶ Use low-chloride non-carbonated mineral water.
▶ You can obtain information about your tap water from
your water supplier.
Chloride and acids may damage the stainless steel sur-
face.
▶ Remove any residues of salt, hot sauces, e.g. ketchup
or mustard, salted food, e.g. salted roasts, or other
foods containing chloride or acid immediately.
Aluminum foil can cause permanent discoloration of the
door pane.
▶ Ensure that the aluminum foil does not come into con-
tact with the door pane.
Fruit juice can cause permanent stains in the oven cavity.
▶ Always remove fruit juice immediately.
▶ Wipe with a damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth.
The prolonged presence of moisture in the oven cavity
leads to corrosion.
▶ Do not keep moist food in the closed oven cavity for ex-
tended periods of time.
▶ Do not store food in the oven cavity.
Rusting material may lead to corrosion in the oven cavity.
▶ Only use original accessories in the oven cavity.
▶ Do not use any enameled baking trays or grill trays.
▶ Never use serving plates or cutlery that may rust.
Small parts that are not original may damage the appli-
ance.
▶ Only use original small parts, e.g. knurled nuts.
▶ If necessary, order small parts from our spare parts ser-
vice.
Heat can damage stainless steel cooking containers.
▶ Only heat stainless steel cooking containers up to
446°C (230°C).
▶ Do not use stainless steel cooking containers in the
oven.
Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will
damage the front of adjacent units over time.
▶ Always allow the oven cavity to cool down with the door
closed after cooking at high temperatures.
▶ Do not trap anything in the appliance door.
▶ Only leave the oven cavity to dry with the door open if a
lot of moisture was produced during operation.
If the 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 seal clean.
▶ Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or
missing.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may dam-
age it.
▶ Do not place, hang or support objects on the appliance
door.
▶ Do not place any cookware or accessories on the appli-
ance door.
2.2 Steam
NOTICE:
Dripping liquids may damage the oven cavity.
▶ To catch any dripping liquids, when steaming using a
perforated cooking container, always insert the unperfo-
rated cooking container underneath.
Silicone baking molds are not suitable for combined oper-
ation with steam.
▶ Cookware must be heat- and steam-resistant.
Using cookware with rust spots may cause corrosion in
the oven cavity. Even the smallest spots of rust can cause
corrosion.
▶ Do not use cookware with rust spots.
Hot water in the water tank may damage the steam sys-
tem.
▶ Only fill the water tank with cold water.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
▶ Remove descaling solution immediately with water.

3.1 Disposal of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible
and can be recycled.
▶ Sort the individual components by type and dispose of
them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
When steaming, you can cook on several levels at the
same time.
a
With steam, various dishes can be prepared at the
same time without the different flavors mixing. When
preparing dishes with different cooking times, those
with the longest cooking time should be placed in the
oven first.
When cooking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in
parallel.
a
The oven cavity is heated after cooking the first dish.
This reduces the cooking time for the following dishes.
If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the
appliance off 10minutes before the cooking time ends.
a
There will be enough residual heat to finish cooking the
dish.
Use dark-colored, black-coated or enameled baking tins.
a
These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly
well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during opera-
tion.
a
This maintains the temperature in the oven cavity and
eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat.
