Safety
NOTICE
Risk of damage to property!
Improper use may damage the appli-
ance or cooking utensils.
■ The cooking zones may become dam-
aged if they are operated without
cookware or with empty cookware.
■ Although fire-proof glass dishes are
also suitable for the solid plates, they
are poor heat conductors. Larger
glass containers may also suffer ther-
mal stress, leading to breakage.
■ Wipe the solid plate and the base of
the pots prior to use to wipe away
any dirt which may cause scratches.
■ Do not use any aluminium foil or
plastic containers to cook on the solid
plates as they can melt.
■ Use the hob as a work surface or
somewhere to place objects only
once the solid plates have complete-
ly cooled off. Otherwise, materials
sensitive to heat (e.g. plastic dishes)
could become damaged.
Using the oven safely
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■ Ensure that the appliance is switched
off before replacing the lamp to avoid
the possibility of electric shock.
CAUTION
Health hazard!
The water that melts during defrosting
can contain harmful bacteria, especial-
ly with meat and poultry.
■ Do not defrost meat, poultry and fish
in oven mode.
■ Pour away the defrost water. Do not
use it for any other purpose.
■ Please ensure to thoroughly clean the
crockery you have used.
CAUTION
Risk of burns!
The oven becomes hot during use. You
can burn yourself on heating elements,
the cooking compartment, the cooked
food and accessories.
■ Particular care should be taken to
avoid touching heating elements in-
side the oven.
■ Only ever operate the oven with the
oven door closed.
■ When opening the oven door, stand
to the side of the oven and as far
away as possible.
■ Allow the oven to cool down com-
pletely before cleaning.
■ Never pour water directly into the hot
oven. The steam can cause scalding
and damage the enamel.
■ Allow hot water from the oven to cool
before pouring it out.
