Operating Instructions

In this way you avoid damaging your appliance
• Do not use the cooking surface for storage. In this way you will avoid
damaging the glass ceramic surface.
• If sugar or plastic comes into contact with the hot cooking surface
and melts, remove it immediately whilst still hot! If it cools, splits
may occur in the glass ceramic cooking surface.
• The glass ceramic cooking surface is insensitive to temperature shock
and very robust, however it is not unbreakable. Hard and sharp
objects, in particular, can damage the cooking surface if they fall on
it.
• Only use utensils with flat, smooth bases that are neither rough nor
burred. Otherwise permanent scratching may occur when the utensils
are slid.
• Do not place hot frying pans or saucepans on the cooking surface
frame and do not cover the cooking surface with protective foil.
• Do not place any pans or other items over the oven steam outlet in
the cooking surface frame.
• Do not place aluminium foil or plastic containers on the hot rings and
do not prepare food in aluminium foil or plastic containers on the hot
cooking surface.
• Do not line your oven with aluminium foil and do not place a baking
sheet or dish on the oven floor, otherwise the oven enamel will be
damaged by the resulting build up of heat.
• Clean the appliance after each use. Spills are then easier to clean up
and do not become burnt onto the surface.
• Any drops of fruit juice that fall from the baking sheet will leave
spots that cannot be removed. Use the universal sheet for very moist
cakes.
• Never pour water directly into the hot oven. The enamel may be dam-
aged.
• Do not sit on the open oven door/oven drawer.
• Do not store moist food in the oven.
Eco-Insulation
In the factory the oven is fitted with eco-insulation. This insulation has
been tested for pollutants by independent test institutes and categor-
ised as harmless
