GB Precautions and tips

!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 while barefoot 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. Any other use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room) constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The manufacturer may not be held responsible for any damage caused as a result of improper, incorrect and unreasonable use of the appliance.

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 the appliance.

Make sure that the power supply cables of other electrical appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of the oven.

The ventilation and heat dispersal openings must never be obstructed.

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 “●”/“” 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.

Do not perform any cleaning or maintenance work without having disconnected the appliance from the electricity mains.

If the event of malfunctions, under no circumstances should you attempt to perform the repairs yourself. Contact an authorised Service Centre (see Assistance).

Do not rest objects on the open oven door.

Do not let children play with the appliance.

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.

The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote- control system.

Disposal

When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.

The European Directive 2012/19/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the environment

You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply network companies by using the oven in the hours between late afternoon and the early hours of the morning. The cooking mode programming options, the “delayed cooking” mode (see Cooking modes) and “delayed automatic cleaning” mode (see Care and Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to organise their time efficiently.

Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding the dispersal of heat.

!This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive on the limitation of power consumption of the standby mode.

If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes, the appliance automatically switches to the standby mode. The standby mode is visualised by the high luminosity “Watch Icon”.

As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, the system’s operating mode is restored.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

Slight differences in colour on the front of the oven are due to the different materials used, i.e. glass, plastic or metal.

Any shady areas resembling grooves on the oven door glass are caused by reflections from the oven light.

The enamel is branded at very high temperatures. This process may cause colour variations. This is normal and will not affect appliance operation in any way. The thin edges of the sheet metal cannot be entirely enamelled and may therefore appear to be unfinished. This will not
