• All possible measures have been taken to ensure
your safety. Since the glass may break, care should
be taken while cleaning to avoid scratching. Avoid
hitting or knocking the glass with accessories.
• Make sure that the supply cord is not trapped or
damaged during installation. If the supply cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in
order to prevent a hazard.
• Do not let children climb on the oven door or sit on
it while it is open.
Installation warnings
• Do not operate the appliance before it is fully
installed.
• The appliance must be installed by an authorised
technician. The manufacturer is not responsible
for any damage that might be caused by incorrect
placement and installation by unauthorised people.
• When the appliance is unpacked, make sure that
it has not been damaged during transportation.
In the case of a defect, do not use the appliance
and contact a qualified service agent immediately.
The materials used for packaging (nylon, staplers,
styrofoam, etc.) may be harmful to children and
they should be collected and removed immediately.
• Protect your appliance from the atmosphere. Do
not expose it to sun, rain, snow, dust or excessive
humidity.
• Materials around the appliance (i.e. cabinets) must
be able to withstand a minimum temperature of
100°C.
During use
• When you first use your oven you may notice a
slight smell. This is perfectly normal and is caused
by the insulation materials on the heater elements.
We suggest that, before using your oven for the
first time, you leave it empty and set it at maximum
temperature for 45 minutes. Make sure that the
environment in which the product is installed is well
ventilated.
• Take care when opening the oven door during or
after cooking. The hot steam from the oven may
cause burns.
• Do not put flammable or combustible materials in
or near the appliance when it is operating.
• Always use oven gloves to remove and replace food
in the oven.
Do not leave the cooker unattended when
cooking with solid or liquid oils. They may catch fire
under extreme heating conditions. Never pour water
on to flames that are caused by oil, instead switch the
cooker off and cover the pan with its lid or a fire
blanket.
• Always position pans over the centre of the cooking
zone, and turn the handles to a safe position so they
cannot be knocked.
• If the product will not be used for a long period of
time, turn the main control switch off. Turn the gas
valve off when gas appliances are not in use.
• Make sure the appliance control knobs are always
in the “0” (stop) position when the appliance is not
in use.
• The trays incline when pulled out. Take care not to
spill or drop hot food when removing it from the
oven.
• Do not place anything on the oven door when it is
open. This could unbalance the oven or damage
the door.
• Do not place heavy or flammable items (e.g. nylon,
plastic bags, paper, cloth, etc.) into the drawer. This
includes cookware with plastic accessories (e.g.
handles).
CAUTION: The inside surface of the storage
compartment may get hot when the appliance is in
use. Avoid touching the inside surface.
• Do not hang towels, dishcloths or clothes from the
appliance or its handles.
