PREPARING THE OVEN

Each individual oven is checked at the factory, but for safety’s sake, after unpacking the oven, you should check carefully that it has not been damaged during transport. Check whether there is any visible damage (e.g. in the form of dents or similar), if the door closes properly, and if the hinges are in order. If it appears that the oven has been damaged, you must contact the shop where you bought it, and do not use it until it has been checked by an authorised specialist.

You should check before installation that all packaging materials have been removed from the oven both inside and outside.

Ensure that the oven is positioned correctly (see the safety measures above).

Plug in.

The heating elements were oiled during manufacture and these will therefore smoke slightly when the oven is first used. This is entirely safe and will stop after a few minutes.

However, so that the food does not taste of this smoke, we recommend that you take the following action before using the oven for the first time:

Leave the oven door ajar.

Set the function selector so both the top and bottom heating elements are active.

Set the oven temperature to 250° C, and leave it on for 15 minutes.

The smoke will now have completely disappeared, and you can use the oven to cook food.

CLEANING

When cleaning the oven, you should pay attention to the following points:

Remove the plug from the wall socket and allow the oven to cool down before cleaning.

Never use scouring powder, steel scourers or other strong cleaning agents to clean the interior or exterior surfaces of the oven, as they may scratch the surfaces.
