Intended Use

• This appliance is intended to be used for cooking, frying and baking 

food in the home and must not be used for any other purpose.

• Only use the appliance to prepare food.

• Do not use the oven as a room heater.

To Avoid Damaging Your Appliance

• Do not line your oven with aluminium foil and do not place a baking 

tray 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. This is the easiest way to remove 

spills and prevents them being burnt on.

• Juice from fruit that drips from baking trays will leave marks that 

cannot be removed. For very moist cakes, use the universal baking 
tray.

• Never pour water directly into the hot oven. The enamel may be dam-

aged.

• Do not put any weight on the open oven door.

• Do not store moist food in the oven.
