• Keep children away from the following
elements as they are sources of danger:
- The oven and its controls, especially when in
operation and immediately afterwards to avoid injury.
- Packaging (bags, polystyrene, metal parts, etc.).
- An oven to be scrapped.
• Make sure that the electrical cables of other
appliances used near the oven do not touch hot
parts and are not trapped in the oven doors.
• Some oven models are equipped with an air
cooling system to prevent the front of the oven
and cabinet cavity from reaching excessively high
temperatures.
Attention: Steam and smoke are vented through
two openings located between the control panel
and the top oven door and between the two doors.
Do not obstruct the vent openings.
• Do not place inflammable material in the ovens
or nearby: a fire may break out if the appliance is
inadvertently switched on.
• Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories,
when the ovens are hot.
• During cooking steam will form in the oven
cavity. Please take special care when
opening the door.
• If alcoholic beverages are added when roasting or
cooking cakes and sweets (for example, rum,
cognac, wine, etc.) bear in mind that alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. Vapours
released by the alcohol can catch fire upon
coming into contact with the electric heating
element.
• Do not heat sealed containers in the ovens
(except for packages specifically designed for this
purpose; see the manufacturer's instructions).
The pressure that develops inside the packaging
might cause it to explode, damaging the
appliance.
• Do not use containers made of synthetic material
for cooking (except for packages specifically
designed for this purpose; see the manufacturer's
instructions). They could melt at high
temperatures.
• Keep an eye on the oven if you are using a lot of
fat or oil. Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire!
• Never pull out fully loaded shelves. Use extreme
caution.
BEFORE USING THE OVEN
• Remove the accessories from the ovens and heat
them 200°C for about an hour to eliminate the
smell of the protective grease and insulating
materials. Keep the kitchen window open during
this operation.
• Before using the oven, remove:
- Stickers on the front and oven doors, except
for the rating plate;
- protective cardboard and protective plastic
film from the front panel controls and other
parts of the appliance;
- any sticky labels from the accessories
(for example, under the drip tray).
