Rating plate
• This is usually situated on the front frame of the
appliance and can be seen upon opening the door.
Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on
the back or top of some models (where applicable).
•
Do not remove the rating plate from the
appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.
Preparing to use your appliance
• Carefully check whether there is any damage after
you unpack the appliance. If there is any defect; do
not use the appliance and contact your retailer
immediately. As the materials used for packaging
(nylon, stapler, Styrofoam etc.) may cause harmful
effects to children, they should be collected and
removed immediately.
• For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
• Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth
using hot soapy water. Wash the oven furniture
before use.
• We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill for 10
15 minutes at maximum temperature, to burn off
any residue from their surfaces. Accessible parts
may become hotter than in normal use. Children
should be kept away. During this period an odour
may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a
window for ventilation.
Condensation and steam
• When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The vents allow some of this steam to
escape. However, always stand back from the
appliance when opening the door(s) to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
• If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface
on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the
appliance.
• To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and foodstuff from surfaces.
Cookware
• Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 30cm
(12”) as they will restrict the circulation of heat and
may affect performance.
