We advise you when using for the first time, to operate your oven empty (without grill).

The lamp must only be used for providing light to the oven. It should not be used on fittings for lighting rooms (according to model).

Check that the mains voltage corresponds correctly to that indicated on the appliance (alternating current only).

Do not use the appliance if:

To ensure safety, if the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by either the manufacturer, its approved service centre or similarly qualified persons.

Make sure that your electricity supply is sufficient for an appliance of this power.

Always plug the appliance into an earthed socket (16A).

Do not allow the power cord to hang down or come into contact with the hot parts of the oven.

Do not unplug the appliance by pulling on the power cord.
