appear in the manual and on the serial number plate located on
the appliance.

• 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.

• 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.

• The instruction booklet accompanies a class 1 (insulated) or class

2 - subclass 1 (recessed between 2 cupboards) 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.

• Make sure 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.

• Do not use unstable or misshapen pans on the cooking zones;

this will help to avoid accidental spills. Make sure pan handles are
turned towards the centre of the hob in order to avoid accidental
burns.

• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the oven or

when removing it.

• Do not use fl ammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...) near the

appliance while it is in use.

• Do not place fl ammable material in the lower storage

compartment or in the oven itself. If the appliance is switched on
accidentally, it could catch fi re.

• 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 Assistance.

• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• The internal surfaces of the compartment (where present) may

become hot.

• The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks, but it may

crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object such as a tool. If
this happens, disconnect the appliance from the electricity mains

immediately and contact a Service Centre.

• If the surface of the hob is cracked, switch off the appliance to

prevent electric shocks from occurring.

• Remember that the cooking zones remain relatively hot for at least

thirty minutes after they have been switched off .

• Keep any object which could melt away from the hob, for

example plastic and aluminium objects, or products with a high
sugar content. Be especially careful when using plastic fi lm and
aluminium foil or packaging: if placed on surfaces that are still hot,
they may cause serious damage to the hob.

• Do not place metal objects (knives, spoons, pan lids, etc.) on the

hob as they may become hot.

• 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.

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, and particularly the “delayed cooking”
mode (see Cooking modes), make this possible.

• Always keep the oven door closed when using the SPIT ROAST and

ROASTING 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 the dispersal of heat.

• This product complies with the requirements of the latest

European Directive on the limitation of power consumption of
the standby mode.

If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes, the

appliance automatically switches to the standby mode.

The standby mode is visualised by the high luminosity „Watch

Icon”.

As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, the system’s

operating mode is restored.
