During Use
•When you first run your oven a certain smell will be emanated arising from the insulation materials and the heater elements. For this reason, before using your oven, run it empty at maximum temperature for 45 minutes. At the same time you need to properly ventilate the environment in which the product is installed.
•While your appliance operates, its outside surfaces heat up. The interior surfaces of oven and the flue outlet are quite hot. Even if the appliance is turned off, these parts keep its heat for a specific time. Do not touch onto hot surfaces and keep children away.
•Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food in the oven.
•Always stand back from the appliance when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.
•Do not leave the cooker while cooking with solid or liquid oils. They may catch fire on condition of extreme heating. Never pour water to the flames that are caused by oil. Cover the saucepan or frypan with its cover in order to choke the flame that has occured in this case and turn the cooker off.
•The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood). Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.
•While using the grill burner, keep the oven door open and always use the grill deflector shield supplied with the product. Never use the grill burner with the oven door closed.
•If you will not use the appliance for a long time, plug it off. Keep the main control switch off. Also when you do not use the appliance, keep the gas valve off.
•When the door of oven is open, do not leave anything on it. You may unbalance your appliance.
•Protect your appliance against atmospheric effects. Do not leave it to effects such as sun, rain, snow, powder etc.
•Do not keep flammable materials close while the appliance is operating.
