OVEN: GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not leave the oven unsupervised during use.
Ensure that children and the infi rm do not play with
the appliance.
• Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance
while it is operating.
• Where this appliance is installed in marine craft
or in caravans, it shall not be USED AS A SPACE
HEATER.
• Always grip the centre of the oven door when
opening. Do not practice excessive pressures on
the door when it is open.
• Do not worry if condensation forms on the door and
on the internal walls of the oven during cooking.
This does not compromise its effi ciency.
• When opening the oven door, be very careful of
scalding vapours.
• During use the appliance becomes hot. Care
should be taken to avoid touching heating elements
inside the oven. Wear oven gloves when placing or
removing pans from the oven or use, if equipped,
the handle (D) (fi g. 2) provided. Hook the handle to
the edge of the tray and pull it out, slightly lifting it as
you do so.
• When inserting or removing food from the oven,
check that excess juices do not overfl ow onto the
oven base (oils and fats are highly infl ammable
when overheated).
• Use containers that will resist the temperatures
indicated on the thermostat knob.
• Never cover the base of the oven or the oven shelf
with aluminium foil or other materials, as this creates
a fi re hazard.
• When grilling always put a little water in the grill
pan. The water prevents the grease from burning
and from giving off bad smells and smoke. Add
more water during grilling to compensate for
evaporation.
• After using the appliance ensure that all the controls
are in the off position.
• WARNING!!! During and after use, the oven door
glass and the accessible parts can be very hot,
therefore keep children away from the appliance.
IMPORTANT!! Always keep the oven door closed
during baking or grilling.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER
WHAT TO DO THE FIRST TIME YOU USE THE OVEN
• Remove all protective wrapping materials from the
appliance and labels from the oven door.
• Remove combustible materials from the warming
compartment before commissioning the cooker.
• Before cooking for the fi rst time, heat the oven at
maximum temperature for 2 hours. This will allow
the protective coating on the interior of the oven to
be burnt off and expel the associated smells. Ensure
adequate ventilation in the kitchen whilst burning off
and don't be alarmed by a little bit of smoke during
this process. At the end of this time period, allow the
appliance to cool down and then clean the interior
using hot water and a delicate detergent. Also wash
all the accessories (grills, trays, spit roast, etc.)
before use.
Prior to any cleaning, disconnect the appliance
from the electricity mains.
