meets all safety requirements laid down
for this type of product category. Ho-
wever special care should be taken
around the rear or the underneath of the

ned or intended to be touched and may
contain sharp or rough edges, that may

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or
sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven

models with glass lid) since they can
scratch the surface, which may result
in shattering of the glass.
