The juices of fruit dripping from the pan may
leave permanent stains. It is advisable to clean the
oven before reusing it.
•
To avoid scratching the coating, do not drag pots
and pans across the bottom of the oven.
•
Residual condensation after cooking could
eventually damage the oven and surrounding
kitchen units. It is advisable to:
- set the lowest temperature;
- cover food;
- remove food from the oven;
- dry the wet parts when the oven is cool.
•
The panel and handle of the oven door become
hot when the appliance is switched on for a long
time at high temperatures.
•
Do not touch the oven with wet parts of the
body or use it when barefoot.
•
Do not pull the appliance or the power cable
to unplug it.
• Do not allow children to touch:
- the oven and its controls, especially when it is
on and immediately afterwards, to avoid
injury;
- packing materials (bags, polystyrene, metal
parts, etc.);
- the oven to be scrapped.
•
Make sure the electrical cables of other appliances
used near the oven do not touch hot parts and are
not caught in the oven door.
•
Some oven models have an air cooling system to
prevent the front of the oven and cabinet recess
from becoming too hot.
Caution:
Hot air comes out through an opening
located between the control panel and the oven
door. Therefore do not obstruct the ventilation
openings.
•
Do not place flammable materials in the oven or
near it: they could catch fire if the appliance is
inadvertently switched on.
•
Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories
when the oven is hot.
•
If alcoholic beverages (e.g. rum, cognac, wine,
etc.) are added when roasting or baking cakes,
remember that alcohol evaporates at high
temperatures. Alcohol vapours can catch fire
when coming into contact with the electrical
heating element.
•
Do not heat or cook food in closed containers
in the oven. The pressure created inside could
cause them to burst, damaging the oven.
•
For cooking do not use containers made of
synthetic material (unless specific for oven use;
see the Manufacturer's instructions). They could
melt at high temperatures.
•
Pay attention when cooking with oil and fat.
In fact, the oil and fat could overheat and cause
afire!
•
Do not pull out fully loaded accessories. Be very
careful.
BEFORE USING THE OVEN

- stickers on the front and oven door, except
for the dataplate;

film from the control panel and other parts
of the oven;
