eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when
handling the container.
CAUTION
Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at least 1"
(25mm) from the appliance walls and the inside of the
door. Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the
inside of the door.
Follow these recommendations when cooking with your
microwave:
¡ Take ready meals out of the packaging. They will heat
up more quickly and evenly in microwaveable
ovenware. The different components of the meal may
not require the same amount of time to heat up.
¡ Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable
cover for your container, use a plate or special
microwave foil.
¡ Stir or turn the food several times during cooking.
Check the temperature.
¡ After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to
5minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.
¡ Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when
removing plates from the appliance.
2.11 Cooking items
Follow these safety instructions when cooking food in your
microwave to avoid injury.
¡ Eggs:
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs
should not be heated in the microwave since they
may explode, even after microwave heating has
ended.
Reheating sliced hard-boiled eggs and cooking
scrambled eggs is safe.
¡ Popcorn:
Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled
for microwave use, or pop it in a microwave corn
popper.
Follow popcorn manufacturers’ directions and use a
brand suitable for the wattage of your appliance.
Do not continue to heat after popping has stopped.
Popcorn will scorch or burn.
Do not leave the appliance unattended.
CAUTION
When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, check
package weight before using the popcorn function.
Set the appliance for the weight of the popcorn
package. If these instructions are not followed, popcorn
may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause fire.
¡ Foods with non-porous skins:
Potatoes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, whole
squash and sausages are examples of foods with
nonporous skins. These types of foods must be pierced
before cooking to prevent them from exploding.
¡ Baby food / Baby formula:
Do not heat baby bottles or food in a microwave. The
glass jar or the surface of food may appear warm while
the interior can burn the infant’s mouth and esophagus.
¡ Deep fat frying:
Do not deep fat fry in the appliance. Oil can be
heated beyond ideal temperatures very quickly in a
microwave. Temperatures can climb high enough for

the cooking oils to reach their respective flash points
and burst into flames. The heated oil may bubble and
spatter causing possible damage to the appliance
and perhaps result in burns.
Additionally, microwave–safe utensils may not be
able to withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and
could result in the utensil shattering, if it contains a
slight imperfection, scratch or chip.
¡ Home Canning / Drying foods / Small quantities of
foods:
Do not use the microwave for home canning or
heating of any closed jar. Pressure will build up and
the jar may explode. In addition, the appliance
cannot maintain the food at the proper canning
temperature. Improperly canned food may spoil and
be dangerous to consume. Small quantities of food
or foods with low moisture content can dry out, burn
or catch on fire. Do not dry meats, herbs, fruits or
vegetables in your appliance.
Proper cooking depends on time set and weight of
food. If you use a smaller portion than recommended
and cook at the time for the recommended portion,
fire could result.
¡ Browning dishes:
Microwave browning dishes or grills are designed for
microwave cooking only. Preheating times vary
depending on the size of the browning dish and food
being cooked.
Always follow instructions provided by the browning
dish or grill manufacturer.
Do not preheat browning dishes more than
6minutes.
¡ Oven roasting bags:
If an oven bag is used for microwave cooking,
prepare according to package directions.
Do not use wire twist–ties to close bags, instead use
nylon ties, cotton string or a strip cut from the open
end of the bag. Make six ½" (12.7 mm) slits by
closure.
Place the oven cooking bag in a dish slightly larger
than the food being cooked.
2.12 Cooking utensils
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave
ovens.
CAUTION
Incorrect use of cooking utensils can result in injuries or
property damage.
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave
appliances. See also Microwave Utensil Guide

If you prepare several bags of microwave popcorn in
immediate succession at a microwave output level that is
too high, the cooking compartment may be damaged.
Leave the appliance to cool down for several minutes
between each use.
Never set a microwave output level that is too high.
Use a maximum microwave output of 600 watts.
Always place the popcorn bag on a glass plate or on the
cooking compartment floor.
Using unsuitable cookware may result in damage.
When using the grill, the microwave combi-operation
mode or the hot air mode, only use cookware that can
withstand the high temperatures.
Loose knurled screws may cause sparks to form during
microwave operation. They damage the appliance by
producing sparks.
Ensure that the knurled screws for installing the shelf
supports are screwed in tightly.
3.3 Core temperature probe

4.1 Disposal of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible
and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose of
them separately.
4.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
Use dark-colored, black-coated or enameled baking tins.
a
These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly
well.
Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the
recommended settings tell you to do so.
a
Not preheating the appliance can reduce the energy
used.
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.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during
operation.
a
This maintains the temperature in the oven cavity and
eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat.
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.

cooking compartment.
20.2 General cooking tips
Take note of the following information when cooking all
types of food.
¡ The cooking times specified are intended as a guide.
The actual cooking time depends on the quality and
temperature of the food before cooking, as well as its
weight and thickness.
¡ Use the cookware specified. If you use other cookware,
cooking times may be longer or shorter.
¡ Always use plates, baking tins or ovenproof dishes with
the wire rack.
¡ If you have not made a particular dish before, start with
the shortest specified time. If required, you can continue
to cook the food.
¡ Open the oven cavity door on the preheated oven for a
short time only and quickly place your food inside the
appliance.
¡ When defrosting, dough proving and reheating, you can
use up to 2 rack levels at a time (rack levels 1 and 2).
The specified cooking times may need to be extended
for large quantities of food.
¡ If you are baking on just one level, use level 1.
¡ Ensure that the food does not lie against the oven cavity
or the back panel.
¡ When cooking at temperatures up to 210°F (100°C),
no preheating is necessary. Place the food in the cold
oven cavity and then switch on the appliance.
Preheating is only necessary for the "Hot air" type of
heating and temperatures above 210°F (100°C).

PRODUCT WARRANTY
STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
25.1 What this warranty covers & Who it
applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances
(“Gaggenau“) in this Statement of Limited Product
Warranty applies only to the Gaggenau appliance sold to
you (“Product“), provided that the Product was purchased:
¡ For your normal, household (non-commercial) use, and
has in fact at all times only been used for normal
household purposes.
¡ New at retail from a BSH authorized dealer or directly
from BSH (not a display, "as is", or previously returned
model), and not for resale, or commercial use.
¡ Within the United States or Canada, and has at all times
remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply to the original
purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each
succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary
home use during the term of the warranty.
Please make sure to register your Product; while not
necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best
way for Gaggenau to notify you in the unlikely event of a
safety notice or product recall.

25.2 How long the warranty lasts
Gaggenau warrants that the Product is free from defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of seven hundred
and thirty (730) days from the date of the original delivery.
The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of
original delivery, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended,
or suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This Product is
also warranted to be free from cosmetic defects in
material and workmanship (such as scratches of stainless
steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents, or other
damage to the finish) of the Product, for a period of sixty
(60) days from the date of delivery or closing date for new
construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes slight color
variations due to inherent differences in painted and
porcelain parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen
lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This
cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor,
“As Is”, or “B” stock appliances.
25.3 Repair/replace as your exclusive
remedy
During this warranty period, Gaggenau or one of its
authorized service providers will repair your Product
without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated
herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured
with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable
attempts to repair the Product have been made without
success, then Gaggenau will replace your Product
(upgraded models may be available to you, in Gaggenau's
sole discretion, for an additional charge). Nothing in this
warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be
replaced with parts of a different type or design than the
original parts. All removed parts and components shall
become the property of Gaggenau at its sole option. All
replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of
the original part for purposes of this warranty and this
warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts.
Gaggenau's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to
repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a
Gaggenau authorized service provider during normal
business hours. For safety and property damage
concerns, Gaggenau highly recommends that you do not
attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use a non-
authorized service provider; Gaggenau will have no
responsibility or liability for damage resulting from repairs
or work performed by a non-authorized service provider.
Authorized service providers are those persons or
companies that have been specially trained on Gaggenau
products, and who possess, in Gaggenau's opinion, a
superior reputation for customer service and technical
ability (note that they are independent entities and are not
agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of
Gaggenau). Nevertheless, taking your product to be
serviced by a repair shop that is not affiliated with or an
authorized dealer of Gaggenau will not void this warranty.
Also, using third-party parts will not void this warranty.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gaggenau will not incur
any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is
located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an
authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible,
hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale,
surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you
request, Gaggenau would still pay for labor and parts and
ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider,
but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any
travel time or other special charges by the service
company, assuming they agree to make the service call.
Further, to the extent you have installed the Product in a
difficult-to-access location or have otherwise installed
temporary or permanent fixtures that create barriers to
accessing or removing the Product, Gaggenau will not
incur any liability for, or have responsibility, for work or
costs associated with moving the Product or otherwise
creating access to the Product in order to repair or replace
it. All such costs shall be your sole responsibility.
25.4 Out of warranty product
Gaggenau is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to
provide you with any concessions, including repairs,
prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has
expired.
25.5 Warranty exclusions
The warranty coverage described herein excludes all
defects or damage that are not the direct fault of
Gaggenau, including without limitation, one or more of the
following:
¡ Use of the Product in anything other than its normal,
customary and intended manner (including without
limitation, any form of commercial use, use or storage of
an indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in

¡ Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse,
abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure to

¡ Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.

¡ Ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease
accumulations, or other substances that accumulate on,
in, or around the Product.

¡ Removal and replacement of trim or decorative panels
that interfere with servicing the Product.
¡ Damage or defects caused by labor or parts installed by
any non-authorized service provider, unless approved
by Gaggenau before service is performed.
In no event shall Gaggenau have any liability or
responsibility whatsoever for damage to surrounding
property, including cabinetry, floors, ceilings, and other
structures or objects around the Product. Also excluded
from this warranty are Products, on which the serial
numbers have been altered, defaced, or removed; service
visits to teach you how to use the Product, or visits where
there is nothing wrong with the Product; correction of
installation problems (you are solely responsible for any
structure and setting for the Product, including all
electrical, plumbing or other connecting facilities, for
proper foundation/flooring, and for any alterations
including without limitation cabinetry, walls, floors,
shelving, etc.); and resetting of breakers or fuses.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY
SETS OUT YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH
RESPECT TO PRODUCT, WHETHER THE CLAIM
ARISES IN CONTRACT OR TORT (INCLUDING STRICT
LIABILITY, OR NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE. THIS
WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY
IMPLIED BY LAW, WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR
OTHERWISE, SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR THE
PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY IS
EFFECTIVE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE MANUFACTURER
BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, "BUSINESS LOSS", AND/OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION TIME AWAY FROM
WORK, HOTELS AND/OR RESTAURANT MEALS,
REMODELLING EXPENSES IN EXCESS OF DIRECT
DAMAGES WHICH ARE DEFINITIVELY CAUSED
EXCLUSIVELY BY GAGGENAU, OR OTHERWISE.
SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY
LASTS, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS OR
LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS
WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS,
AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH
VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.
No attempt to alter, modify or amend this warranty shall be
effective unless authorized in writing by an officer of BSH.
