Causes of damage
Hob
Caution!
■ Only use the burners when cookware has been placed on
top. Do not heat up empty pots or pans. The saucepan base
will be damaged.
■ Only use pots and pans with an even base.
■ Place the pot or pan centrally over the burner. This will
optimise transfer of the heat from the burner flame to the pot
or ban base. The handle does not become damaged, and
greater energy savings are guaranteed.
■ Clear up spills immediately. Use deep pots for dishes with a
lot of liquid. This will prevent the food from boiling over.
■ Do not use roasting dishes if they must be heated using two
burners. This will cause heat accumulation. The appliance
could be damaged.
■ Cooking on gas burners releases extra heat and moisture.
Adjacent units may become damaged over time. For long
cooking times, switch on the cooker hood or ventilate the
room.
■ Observe the manufacturer's instructions when using special
ovenware.Aluminium foil and plastic containers can melt and
stick on hot burners.
■ Ensure that the gas burners are clean and dry. The burner
cup and burner cap must be positioned exactly.
■ Ensure that the top cover is not closed when the oven is
started up.
Damage to the oven
Caution!
■ Accessories, foil, greaseproof paper or ovenware on the
cooking compartment floor: do not place accessories on the
cooking compartment floor. Do not cover the cooking
compartment floor with any sort of foil or greaseproof paper.
Do not place ovenware on the cooking compartment floor if a
temperature of over 50 ºC has been set. This will cause heat
to accumulate. The baking and roasting times will no longer
be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
■ Water in a hot cooking compartment: do not pour water into
the cooking compartment when it is hot. This will cause
steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the
enamel.
■ Moist food: do not store moist food in the cooking
compartment when it is closed for prolonged periods This will
damage the enamel.
■ Fruit juice: when baking particularly juicy fruit pies, do not
pack the baking tray too generously. Fruit juice dripping from
the baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. If
possible, use the deeper universal pan.
■ Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the cooking
compartment to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance
door is only open a little, front panels of adjacent units could
be damaged over time.
■ Very dirty door seal: If the door seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly when the
appliance is in use. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged.Always keep the door seal clean.
■ Appliance door as a seat, shelf or worktop: Do not sit on the
appliance door, or place or hang anything on it. Do not place
any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
■ Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance model,
accessories can scratch the door panel when closing the
appliance door. Always insert the accessories into the
cooking compartment as far as they will go.
■ Carrying the appliance: do not carry or hold the appliance by
the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight
of the appliance and could break.
■ Heavy accessories: do not pull out heavily laden accessories
too far without first unloading them sufficiently. Heavy
accessories will tip when pulled out. This causes pressure to
be exerted on the shelf supports in the cooking compartment,
which can damage the enamel. Relieve the strain on the
accessories when they are pulled out by raising them slightly
with one hand. Caution: always use an oven cloth or oven
gloves when handling hot accessories.
Storage compartment
Caution!
Do not place hot objects in the storage compartment. It could
be damaged.
Measures to be noted during transport
Secure all mobile parts in and on the appliance using an
adhesive tape that can be removed without leaving any traces.
Push all accessories (e.g. baking tray) into the corresponding
slots with cardboard at the edges, in order to avoid damaging
the appliance. Place cardboard or similar between the front and
rear side to prevent knocks against the inside of the glass door.
Secure the door and, if available, the top cover to the appliance
sides using adhesive tape.
Keep the original appliance packaging. Only transport the
appliance in the original packaging. Observe the transport
arrows on the packaging.
If the original packaging is no longer available
pack the appliance in protective packaging to guarantee
sufficient protection against any transport damage.
Transport the appliance in an upright position. Do not hold the
appliance by the door handle or the connections on the rear, as
these could be damaged. Do not place any heavy objects on
the appliance.
