Safety Precautions
Make sure to follow these instructions
CAUTION
When the oven is fi rst switched
on, it may emit an unpleasant
smell. This is due to the bonding
agent used for insulating panels
within the oven. Heat up the new
empty oven with the conventional
cooking function, 250 °C for
15 - 20 minutes in order to remove
any manufacturing residues. It is
normal that there will be a slight
smoke and odours.
Spray cleaner is not to be used for
cleaning.
Do not use harsh abrasive
cleaners or sharp metal scrapers
to clean the oven door glass, since
they can scratch the surface,
which may result in shattering of
the glass.
A steam cleaner is not to be used.
Do not use this oven for heating
rooms.
Do not rest any weight or sit on the
open door of the oven.
The Name Plate with the technical
data, serial number and brand
name has been visibly affi xed to
the oven.
DO NOT REMOVE THE NAME
PLATE FOR ANY REASON.
Do not allow residues of sugary
food (such as jam) to set inside the
oven since they might damage the
enamel lining of the oven.
Do not use plastic kitchenware or
containers. The high temperatures
inside the oven could melt the
plastic and damage the oven.
Do not use sealed tins or
containers in the oven. Over
pressure may occur inside the
containers during cooking,
creating a danger of explosion.
Do not leave the oven unattended
during cooking process where fats
or oils could be released. Fats and
oils may catch fi re.
Do not cover the bottom of the
oven with aluminium or tin foil
sheets during cooking and do not
place pans or trays on it to avoid
damage to the enamelled surface.
If the surfaces are still very hot
during cooking, do not pour water
directly onto the trays. The steam
could cause severe burns and
damage to the enamelled surfaces.
Do not insert pointed metal
objects into any aperture in the
oven.
Do not modify this oven.
Do not replace the parts of the
appliance with spare parts other
than authorised Panasonic parts.
