￿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

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.

When moving or positioning the appliance, always use the handles provided on the sides of the oven.

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 provided in this booklet.

Do not touch the heating elements or certain parts of the oven door when the appliance is in use; these parts become extremely hot. Keep children well away from it and do not touch the hot parts yourself.

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.

Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the ends may be hot.

Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the oven or when removing it.

Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven.

Do not place flammable materials in the oven: If the appliance is switched on accidentally, the materials could catch fire.

Always make sure the knobs are in the “l”/“¡” 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.

GB

 

repairs yourself. Repairs carried out by

 

inexperienced individuals may cause injury or

 

further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact a

 

Service Centre (see Assistance).

 

Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.

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.

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. For further information relating to the correct disposal of exhausted household appliances, owners may contact the relevant public service or their local dealer.

Respecting and conserving the environment

By using the appliance in the hours between late afternoon and early morning, you can help reduce the work load placed on electrical companies.

Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are free of debris so that they stick properly to the door and do not allow heat to disperse.
