Instructions for use and connection

Before Use
Heat the empty oven at the temperature 250°C
for 30 minutes while set at fan operation mode to
eliminate offensive smell of insulation coating
pull-out slides. Smell occurring when heating up
is not harmful, however, it is recommended to air
the kitchen during the first use.
Important Warnings
•
The appliance should be connected to the power
supply by a qualified technician.
•
The oven is ventilated through the opening on the
back side of the cooktop frame.
•
Individual parts of the cooker get very hot during
operation (door glass, the area around the
cooking zones, etc.). Don't let children play near
the cooker and warn them of the danger of burns.
•
Hot grease is highly flammable, so you have to be
very careful when you prepare food with grease or
oil (for example fried potato chips).
•
Cooking zones should never be left empty when
switched on.
•
Never cover the oven with aluminum foil and don't
place the baking sheet or any other pan on the
bottom of the oven. Foil prevents air circulation in
the oven, slows down the baking process and
damages the enamel.
•
If you have an electric appliance connected to a
socket close to the cooker, take care that the
supply cord does not come in contact with hot
areas or get jammed between the oven and the
hot oven door.
•
Never use the cooker as a room heater.
•
Never store inflammable, explosive or heat
sensitive material in the drawer.
•
The ceramic hob should never be used as a
working top as you may scratch it with sharp
objects.
•
Never put food wrapped with aluminum foil or
stored in plastic dishes directly on the hot cooking
zone, as the ceramic surface is very likely to get
damaged.
•
Do not use glass-ceramic hob when it is cracked
or broken. If a visible crack appears, immediately
disconnect the appliance from the mains.
•
In the event of any disturbance disconnect the
power supply immediately and call your service.
ATTENTION!
Do not clean the oven with high-pressure
cleaners.
Oven door gets extremely hot during operation of
the appliance. For that reason there is additional
protection, the third oven door glass, which
reduces the surface temperature on the oven
door during operation of the appliance.

Energy Saving Tips
•
The bottom of the pot should be slightly concave
for optimum heat transfer from the cooking zone.
•
The bottom of the pot should always suit the size
of the cooking zone. If the pot is smaller, it can
cause energy loss and if larger, the cooking zone
may become damaged.
•
Use a pot lid whenever possible.
•
The pot size should suit the quantity of food.
Cooking smaller quantities of food in a large pot
results in energy loss.
•
Food which needs longer cooking may also be
prepared in the pressure cooker.
•
Various vegetables, potatoes, etc. can be cooked
with a smaller quantity of water. This way the food
is cooked much sooner, but do not forget to cover
the pan properly. When the water starts boiling,
turn the knob to the position for slow boiling.
•
Some 5-10 minutes before the food is cooked,
switch off the hot plate or the oven, whichever you
are using.
•
Smaller pieces of meat should be cooked on the
cooker top and larger pieces should be prepared
in the oven.
•
Open the door of the oven only when necessary,
as frequent opening causes energy loss and
prolongs the time required for cooking.
•
With conventional heating of the oven, the food is
cooked on one level, but the oven may be loaded
with two narrow tins or it is possible to bake one
after another.
