together and disposed of immediately as they 

may be harmful to children.

(not 

supplied)

 of your cooker away from the hot 

areas of your cooker; do not let the cable touch 

the appliance. Keep the cable away from sharp 

edges and heated surfaces.

IMPORTANT: 

Ensure that the electric supply 

cable is not trapped or damaged during 

installation.

IMPORTANT: 

In the event that the cable 

connecting your cooker becomes damaged, it 

must be replaced by a 

suitably qualified person

.

This cable must not be replaced by an 

unauthorised person.

atmospheric effects. Do not expose your cooker 

to effects such as sun, rain, snow etc.

IMPORTANT:

 The materials surrounding the 

appliance (cabinets) must be able to withstand a 

minimum temperature of 100°C.

IMPORTANT:

 When using your oven for 

the first time your cooker may give off an 

unusual odour from the heating elements 

and insulation materials. This is normal for 

new cookers. To eliminate this odour run the 

oven at 250 degrees for 40-60 mins with the 

oven empty.

reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities 

or lack of experience and knowledge should not

and warned of the hazards involved.

WARNING:

parts become hot during use. Care should be 

taken to avoid touching hot parts. 

WARNING: 

Cooking on a hob with fat or oil can 

be dangerous and should not be left unattended.

fire with water. Instead switch off the appliance

appliance, ensure curtains, paper or flammable 

items are kept away from your appliance.
