Before using the appliance
Rating plate
•This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable).
•The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker.
•The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.
•Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.
WARNING!
Always allow the cooling fan to cool the appliance down before switching off at the wall prior to carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.
Touch control sensors
•This appliance is operated using touch control sensors. Functions are controlled by touching sensor fields and confirmed by displays and acoustic signals. Touch the sensor fields from above, without covering other sensor fields.
Preparing to use your appliance
•Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth using hot soapy water. Wash the furniture before use.
•We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum temperature, to burn off any residue from their surfaces. Accessible parts may become hotter than in normal use. Children should be kept away. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
The cooling fan for the controls
•The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill/top oven is switched on and after a short time when the main oven is in use. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled.
•During the initial period the cooling fan may turn on and off, this is quite normal.
Switching the hob on/off
•The hob must be switched on before setting
any cooking function or programme. When the on/off touch sensor
is pressed and held, the hotplate settings will show in the electronic display.
•To switch off the hob, you can press and hold the on/off touch sensor
at any time. Any cooking functions or programme will stop.
•After switching on, within approximately 10 seconds a heat setting or function must be set, otherwise the appliance automatically switches itself off.
