Precautions and tips
!
This appliance has been designed and manufactured
in compliance with international safety standards.
The following warnings are provided for safety reasons
and must be read carefully.
General safety
• The appliance was designed for domestic use
inside the home and is not intended for commercial
or industrial use.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave
the appliance exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet
or damp hands and feet.
• The appliance must be used by adults only for the
preparation of food, in accordance with the
instructions provided in this booklet.
• 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.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in
the oven or when removing it.
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...)
near the appliance while it is in use.
• Do not place flammable material in the lower storage
compartment or in the oven itself. If the appliance is
switched on accidentally, it could catch fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the “
•
”
position when the appliance is not in use.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the
plug from the mains socket; do not pull on the
cable.
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from
the electricity mains.
• If the appliance breaks down, under no
circumstances should you attempt to perform the
repairs yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or further
malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact
Assistance.
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• The appliance becomes extremely hot while it is
operating. Do not touch the heating elements inside
the oven and keep children well away from the
appliance.
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.
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the
GRILL mode. This will achieve improved results
while saving energy (approximately 10%).
• 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.
