Before using for the first time proceed
as follows:

^

Remove any stickers or labels from
the oven floor and the accessories.

^

Clean the appliance and accessories
with a mild solution of hot water and a
little washing up liquid and then rub

tom heat

A

and increase the pre-set

temperature from 190 °C to 275 °C
(see section on "Adjusting the pre-set
temperature").

It is important to ensure that the room is
well ventilated. We recommend that you
vacate the room while you are heating
the oven up for the first time.

Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight
smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours will dissi-
pate after a short time and do not indi-
cate a faulty connection or appliance.
