Precautions and tips
! This appliance has been designed and manufactured in compliance with
international safety standards.The following warnings are provided for safety
reasons and must be read carefully.
General safety
• These instructions are only valid for the countries whose symbols
appear in the manual and on the serial number plate.
• 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.
• When the appliance is in use, the heating elements and some
parts of the oven door become extremely hot. Make sure you
don’t touch them and keep children well away.
• 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 place unstable or misshapen pans on the electric
hotplates; this will help to avoid spills. Position them on the hob
with the handles turned towards the centre of the appliance.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the oven or
when removing it.
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...) near the
appliance while it is in use.
• Do not place flammable material in the lower storage
compartment or in the oven itself. If the appliance is switched on
accidentally, it could catch fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the ‘0’ 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 repair the appliance 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 temperature of the cooking zones remains
relatively high for at least thirty minutes after they have been
switched off.
• Keep any object that could melt away from the hob, for
example plastic and aluminium objects, or products with a high
sugar content. Keep plastic or aluminium objects away from
the hob: if you forget them on surfaces that are still hot, they
may cause serious damage to the hob.
• 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.
• Do not let children play with the appliance.
• Accessible parts may become hot during use. To avoid
burns young children should be kept away.
• Care must be taken when using the bottom storage drawer,
as the internal bottom surface of this drawer can get very hot.
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.
Exhausted appliances may be collected by the public waste
collection service, taken to suitable collection areas in the area
or, if permitted by current national legislation, they may be
returned to the dealers as part of an exchange deal for a new
equivalent product.
All major manufacturers of household appliances participate in
the creation and organisation of systems for the collection and
disposal of old and disused appliances.
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.
• 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 heat dispersion.
