1.3 During use
•
When you first use your oven you may notice a slight smell. This is perfectly normal and
is caused by the insulation materials on the heater elements. We suggest that, before using
your oven for the first time, you leave it empty and set it at maximum temperature for 45
minutes. Make sure that the environment in which the product is installed is well ventilated.
•
Take care when opening the oven door during or after cooking. The hot steam from the
oven may cause burns.
•
Do not put flammable or combustible materials in or near the appliance when it is
operating.
•
Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the oven.
Do not leave the cooker unattended when cooking with solid or liquid oils. They
may catch fire under extreme heating conditions. Never pour water on to flames that are
caused by oil, instead switch the cooker off and cover the pan with its lid.
