Safety Thermostat
To prevent dangerous overheating (through incorrect use of the appliance or defective components), the oven is fitted with a safety thermostat, which interrupts the power supply. The oven switches back on again automatically, when the temperature drops.
Should the safety thermostat trigger due to incorrect use of the appliance, it is enough to remedy the error after the oven has cooled down; if on the other hand, the thermostat triggers because of a defective component, please contact Customer Service.
The cooling fan
The cooling fan is designed to cool the the oven and the control panel. The fan switches on automatically after a few minutes of cooking. Warm air is blown out through the aperture near the oven door handle. When the oven is switched off, the fan may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on where the oven has only been used for a short time.
Before using the oven for the first time
Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven.
Before using for the first time, the oven should be heated up without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal. It is caused by manufacturing residues.
Ensure the room is well ventilated.
