USE OF APPLIANCE

Before the First Use of the Oven

Before the first use ensure that the room is well ventilated: V.M.C. (Mechanic ventilation) or opened window.

Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven.

Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

1.Remove the oven accessories.

2.Remove any adhesive labels or protective films, if there are any.

3.Heat the oven at the maximum temperature for about 45 min.

This procedure should be repeated with the grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

Clean the accessories with a soft detergent.

Rinse and dry carefully.

Rating Plate

The model number of your cooker can be found on the rating plate on the lower front frame of the cooker upon opening the door.

The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker is given on the rating plate.

About condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However,

always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.

If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

Use any ovenproof cookware, which will withstand temperatures of 250°C.

Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed directly on the oven base.

During cooking in the oven the oven door is hot. Take care that children do not play near it.
