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.
• When moving or positioning the appliance, always
use the handles provided on the sides of the oven.
• 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 outlined in this booklet. Any other
use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room)
constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The
manufacturer may not be held liable for any
damage resulting from improper, incorrect and
unreasonable use of the appliance.
•
Do not touch the heating elements or certain
parts of the oven door when the appliance is in
use; these parts become extremely hot. Keep
children well away from the appliance.
• Ensure 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 grip the oven door handle in the centre: the
ends may be hot.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in
the oven or when removing it.
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven.
• Do not place flammable materials in the oven: If the
appliance is switched on accidentally, the materials
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 a Service
Centre (
see Assistance).
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• The appliance should not be operated by people
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals
or by anyone who is not familiar with the product.
These individuals should, at the very least, be
supervised by someone who assumes responsibility
for their safety or receive preliminary instructions
relating to the operation of the appliance.
• Do not let children play with 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. For further
information relating to the correct disposal of
exhausted household appliances, owners may contact
the public service provided or their local dealer.
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. The cooking mode
programming options, the “delayed cooking” mode
(
see Cooking modes) and “delayed automatic
cleaning” mode (
see Care and Maintenance) in
particular, enable the user to organise their time
efficiently.
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the
BARBECUE and GRATIN modes: 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.
!
