1. General Instructions
We thank you for choosing one of our products. For the best results with your oven, you should read this manual
carefully and retain it for future reference. Before installing the oven, take note of the serial number so that you
can give it to customer service staff if any repairs are required. Having removed the oven from its packaging,
check that it has not been damaged during transportation. If you have doubts, do not use the oven and refer to a
qualified technician for advice. Keep all of the packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails) out of the reach
of children. When the oven is switched on for the first time, strong smelling smoke can develop, which is caused
by the glue on the insulation panels surrounding the oven heating for the first time.
This is absolutely normal and,
if it occurs, you should wait for the smoke to dissipate before putting food in the oven. The manufacturer accepts
no responsibility in cases where the instructions contained in this document are not observed.
NOTE:
the oven functions, properties and accessories cited in this manual will vary, depending on the model you
have purchased.
1.1 Safety Indications
Only use the oven for its intended purpose, that is only for the cooking of foods; any other use, for example as a heat source, is considered improper and
therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect or unreasonable usage.
The use of any electrical appliance implies the observance of some fundamental rules:
-
do not pull the power cable to disconnect the product to the power source;
- do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands or feet;
- in general the use of adaptors, multiple sockets and extension cables is not recommended;
- in case of malfunction and/or poor operation, switch off the appliance and do not tamper with it.
1.2 Electrical Safety
ENSURE THAT AN ELECTRICIAN OR QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN MAKES THE
ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS.
The power supply to which the oven is
connected must conform with the laws in force in the country of installation.
The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any damage caused by the
failure to observe these instructions. The oven must be connected to an
electrical supply with an earthed wall outlet or a disconnector with multiple
poles, depending on the laws in force in the country of installation. The
electrical supply should be protected with suitable fuses and the cables used
must have a transverse section that can ensure correct supply to the oven.
CONNECTION
The oven is supplied with a power cable that should only be connected to an
electrical supply with 220-240 Vac power between the phases or between the
phase and neutral. Before the oven is connected to the electrical supply, it is
important to check:
- power voltage indicated on the gauge;
- the setting of the disconnector.
The grounding wire connected to the oven's earth terminal must be
connected to the earth terminal of the power supply.
WARNING
Before connecting the oven to the power supply, ask a qualified electrician to
check the continuity of the power supply's earth terminal. The manufacturer
accepts no responsibility for any accidents or other problems caused by
failure to connect the oven to the earth terminal or by an earth connection
that has defective continuity.
NOTE:
as the oven could require maintenance work, it is advisable to keep
another wall socket available so that the oven can be connected to this if it is
removed from the space in which it is installed. The power cable must only be
substituted by technical service staff or by technicians with equivalent
qualifications.
A low light around the central main switch could be present when the oven is
off. This is a normal behavior. I can be removed just turning the plug upside
down or swapping the supply terminals.
1.3 Recommendations
After each use of the oven, a minimum of cleaning will help keep the oven perfectly clean.
Do not line the oven walls with aluminium foil or single-use protection available from stores. Aluminium foil or any other protection, in direct contact with the
hot enamel, risks melting and deteriorating the enamel of the insides. In order to prevent excessive dirtying of your oven and the resulting strong smokey
smells, we recommend not using the oven at very high temperature. It is better to extend the cooking time and lower the temperature a little. In addition to the
accessories supplied with the oven, we advise you only use dishes and baking moulds resistant to very high temperatures.
1.4 Installation
The manufacturers have no obligation to carry this out. If the assistance of the manufacturer is required to rectify faults arising from incorrect installation, this
assistance is not covered by the guarantee. The installation instructions for professionally qualified personnel must be followed. Incorrect installation may
cause harm or injury to people, animals or belongings. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for such harm or injury.
The oven can be located high in a column or under a worktop. Before fixing, you must ensure good ventilation in the oven space to allow proper circulation of
the fresh air required for cooling and protecting the internal parts. Make the openings specified on last page according to the type of fitting.
1.5 Waste management and environmental protection
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive
2012/19/EU regarding electric and electronic appliances
(WEEE). The WEEE contain both polluting substances (that can
have a negative effect on the environment) and base elements
(that can be reused). It is important that the WEEE undergo
specific treatments to correctly remove and dispose of the
pollutants and recover all the materials. Individuals can play an
important role in ensuring that the WEEE do not become an
environmental problem; it is essential to follow a few basic rules:
- the WEEE should not be treated as domestic waste;
- the WEEE should be taken to dedicated collection areas managed by the
town council or a registered company.
In many countries, domestic collections may be available for large WEEEs.
1.6 Declaration of compliance
Hereby, Candy Hoover Group Srl declares that the radio equipment is in compliance with Directive 2014/53/EU and with the relevant Statutory Requirements
(for the UKCA market). The full text of the declaration of conformity is available at the following internet address: www.candy-group.com
When you buy a new appliance, the old one can be returned to the vendor
who must accept it free of charge as a one-off, as long as the appliance is of an
equivalent type and has the same functions as the purchased appliance.
SAVING AND RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
Where possible, avoid pre-heating the oven and always try to fill it. Open the
oven door as infrequently as possible, because heat from the cavity disperses
every time it is opened. For a significant energy saving, switch off the oven
between 5 and 10 minutes before the planned end of the cooking time, and
use the residual heat that the oven continues to generate. Keep the seals
clean and in order, to avoid any heat dispersal outside of the cavity. If you have
an electric contract with an hourly tariff, the "delayed cooking" programme
makes energy saving more simple, moving the cooking process to start at the
reduced tariff time slot.
