• The instruction booklet accompanies a class 1
(insulated) or class 2 - subclass 1 (recessed
between 2 cupboards) appliance.
• Keep children away from the oven.
• Make sure that the power supply cables of other
electrical appliances do not come into contact
with the hot parts of the oven.
• The openings used for the ventilation and
dispersion of heat must never be covered.
• Do not close the glass hob cover (selected
models only) when the burners are alight or when
they are still hot.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware
in the oven or when removing it.
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol,

• Do not place flammable material in the lower
storage compartment or in the oven itself. If the

catch fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the • position

inexperienced persons may cause injury or further
malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact
Assistance.

Disposal
• When disposing of packaging material: observe
local legislation so that the packaging may be
reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) states that household appliances should
not be disposed of using the normal solid urban
waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be
collected separately in order to optimise the cost
of re-using and recycling the materials inside the
machine, while preventing potential damage to
the atmosphere and to public health. The
crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to
remind the owner of their obligations regarding
separated waste collection.
Exhausted appliances may be collected by the
public waste collection service, taken to suitable
collection areas in the area or, if permitted by
current national legislation, they may be returned
to the dealers as part of an exchange deal for a
new equivalent product.
All major manufacturers of household appliances
participate in the creation and organisation of
systems for the collection and disposal of old and
disused appliances.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
• You can help to reduce the peak load of the
electricity supply network companies by using the
oven in the hours between late afternoon and the
early hours of the morning.
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them
clean to ensure they are free of debris so that
they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding
heat dispersion.
