Electrical connection
The appliance must only be connected to the mains electricity
supply by specialist personnel. The appliance must be installed
in accordance with the most recent IEE guidelines (Institute of
Electrical Engineers). The appliance may be damaged if it is not
connected correctly.
Make sure the voltage of the power supply matches the value
specified on the rating plate.
Make sure that the power supply is properly earthed and that
the fuse and the cable/wiring system in the building is
sufficiently dimensioned for the electrical power of the
appliance.
We recommend configuring the power circuit for the appliance
to 16 A.
Always observe the following when laying the connection cable:
■
Do not pinch or squeeze the cable.
■
Keep the cable away from sharp edges.
■
Do not allow the cable to come into contact with parts that
can reach temperatures of over 50 °C above room
temperature.
:
Danger of death!
There is a risk of electric shock if you touch live components.
■
Always make sure your hands are dry when you touch or
hold the mains plug.
■
Only pull out the mains cable by taking hold of the plug and
removing the plug; never pull it out by the mains cable itself,
as this could damage it.
■
Never unplug the mains plug when the appliance is in
operation.
Please note the following information and ensure that:

Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting in the oven and when cooking on the hob, and how to
dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
■
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in
the tables in the instruction manual.
■
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins, because
they absorb heat particularly well.
■
Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while the
food is baking and roasting.
■
For longer cooking times, the oven can be turned off
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, and the meal
can be finished using residual heat.
Saving energy with the gas hob
■
Always use a saucepan which is the correct size for your
food. A larger, less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
■
Always place a suitable lid on the saucepan.
■
The gas flame must always be in contact with the base of the
saucepan.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
