Warning: The safety measures and instructions contained in this manual do not include all potential
conditions and scenarios. The user must understand that common sense, caution and care are factors that
cannot be integrated into a product. Therefore, the user is responsible for these factors when using and
operating this appliance. We are not liable for any damages caused during shipping, by incorrect use, voltage
fluctuation or the modification or adjustment of any part of the appliance.
To protect against the risk of fire or electric shock, basic precautions must be taken while using electrical
appliances, including the following:
1. Make sure the voltage in your outlet corresponds to the voltage provided on the appliance label and
that the socket is correctly grounded. The outlet must be installed according to valid safety instructions.
2. Do not operate the oven if the door is damaged, it does not function correctly or the power cord is
damaged. All repairs or adjustments including cord replacements should be performed by
a professional service centre! Do not remove the protective covers from the appliance; there is
a risk of electric shock!
3. Protect the appliance against direct contact with water and other liquids, to prevent potential electric
shock. Do not immerse cord or plug in water!
