Precautions for use

The following advice is intended to help you save energy and prevent pan damage:

Use pans which are the right size for each burner. Do not use small pans on large burners. The flame must not touch the sides of the pan.

Do not use damaged pans, which do not sit evenly on the hob. Pans may tip over. Only use pans with a thick, flat base.

Do not cook without using a lid and make sure the lid is properly fitted. This wastes energy.

Always centre the pan over the burner, not to one side. Otherwise it could tip over. Do not place large pans on the burners near the control knobs. These may be damaged by the very high temperatures.

Place the pans on the pan supports, never directly on the burner.

Make sure that the pan supports and burner caps are correctly positioned before using the appliance. Pans should be placed on the hob carefully.

Do not strike the hob and do not place excessive weight on it.

Never use two burners or heat sources to heat one single pan.

Do not use grill pans, earthenware casserole dishes, etc. for a long period of time on maximum power.

2. Turn the temperature selector to 280 °C.

The appliance will start the self-cleaning programme.

Notes

■ Moving the function selector or the temperature selector while the cleaning cycle is in progress will stop the pyrolytic self-cleaning programme.

■ Activating the childproof lock while the cleaning cycle is in progress will stop the pyrolytic selfcleaning programme.

While the self-cleaning programme is in progress, the appliance door is automatically locked.

One minute after the cleaning cycle (pyrolytic selfcleaning) has begun, the oven door is locked to prevent it from being opened. The indicator light lights up to show that this door lock has been activated. Once the door lock has been activated, it is no longer possible to select any functions. To select functions, wait until the indicator light goes out. Even if you cancel the selfcleaning programme shortly after the door lock is activated, it may take several minutes until you can open the oven door.

Note: You can continue to use the duration and end time while the pyrolytic self-cleaning programme is in progress. To achieve a good cleaning result in a lightly soiled oven, set the programme to run for at least 2 hours. The self-cleaning programme can be set to run for up to 3 hours, after which the programme will switch itself off automatically. Take into account the maximum 3-hour programme duration when setting the end time.

Cancelling

To cancel the programme, turn the function selector to o.

Ending

Once the self-cleaning function has run through to the end, a short audible signal will sound five times. The appliance door cannot be opened until the temperature falls below 300 °C and the symbol goes out.
