Miele H 326, H 316, H 320, H 310 manual Oven, Warning and Safety instructions

Warning and Safety instructions

The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply

when:

–it is switched off at the wall socket

–or the mains fuse is withdrawn

–or the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable). Ensure that current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead.

Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g danger of overheating).

The oven is designed to be built into a tall unit. If you wish to install

it in a base unit, the stainless steel rail above the control panel must be re- placed by a sealing strip. The sealing strip offers additional protection from any liquids that might spill down from the worktop, and can be purchased from the Miele Spare Parts dept.

This equipment is not designed for maritime use or for use in mobile in-

stallations such as caravans, aircraft etc. However, it may be suitable for such usage subject to a risk assess- ment of the installation being carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Use

Caution, danger of burning.

High temperatures are produced by the oven and the hob cooking areas.

Great care should be taken to en- sure that small children do not

touch the appliance when it is being used. The hob and also external parts of the oven such as the door glass, handle vent and control panel can become quite hot. For cookers with a hob turn pan handles inwards to pre- vent children from pulling pans over.

Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an

oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven or play with it.

Do not store items of interest to child- ren in cabinets above an oven. Child- ren climbing on the oven to reach these items could be seriously injured.

Oven

Use of heat-resistant oven gloves is recommended when placing

food in the oven, turning or removing it. When working with "Conventional" heat- ing or when grilling, the element in the roof of the oven and the guard plate become very hot, and there is a danger of being burnt.

Wait until the grill element has cooled down before lowering it for

cleaning, to avoid the danger of burning.

Do not use force to pull it down as this can cause the element to break.
