Precautions and tips

! This appliance has been designed and manufactured in compliance with

international safety standards. The following warnings are provided for safety

reasons and must be read carefully.

General safety

• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is

not intended for commercial or industrial use.

• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is

extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms.

• When moving or positioning the appliance, always use the handles

provided on the sides of the oven.

• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet or damp hands and

feet.

• The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation of

food, in accordance with the instructions provided in this booklet.

Any other use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room) constitutes

improper use and is dangerous. The manufacturer may not be held

responsible for any damage caused as a result of improper, incorrect

and unreasonable use of the appliance.

• Do not touch the heating elements or certain parts of the oven door

when the appliance is in use; these parts become extremely hot.

Keep children well away from the appliance.

• Make sure that the power supply cables of other electrical appliances do

not come into contact with the hot parts of the oven.

• The ventilation and heat dispersal openings must never be obstructed.

• Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the ends may be hot.

• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the oven or when

removing it.

• Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven.

• Do not place ammable materials in the oven: if the appliance is switched

on accidentally, the materials could catch re.

• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug from the mains

socket; do not pull on the cable.

• Do not perform any cleaning or maintenance work without having

disconnected the appliance from the electricity mains.

• If the event of malfunctions, under no circumstances should you attempt

to perform the repairs yourself. Contact an authorised Service Centre (see

Assistance).

• Do not rest objects on the open oven door.

• Do not let children play with the appliance.

• The appliance should not be operated by people (including children)

with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, by inexperienced

individuals or by anyone who is not familiar with the product. These

individuals should, at the very least, be supervised by someone who

assumes responsibility for their safety or receive preliminary instructions

relating to the operation of the appliance.

• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external

timer or separate remote-control system.

Disposal

• When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that

the packaging may be reused.

• The European Directive 2012/19/EEC on Waste Electrical and

Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical

appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal

waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order

to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain

and reduce the impact on human health and the environment.

The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your

obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately

collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information

concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the environment

• You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply network

companies by using the oven in the hours between late afternoon and the

early hours of the morning. The cooking mode programming options, the

“delayed cooking” mode (see Cooking modes) and “delayed automatic

cleaning” mode (see Care and Maintenance) in particular, enable the user

to organise their time efciently.

• Always keep the oven door closed when using the GRILL and FAN

GRILLING modes: this will achieve improved results while saving energy

(approximately 10%).

• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to ensure they are

free of debris so that they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding the

dispersal of heat.

! This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive

on the limitation of power consumption of the standby mode.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out

any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

• Slight differences in colour on the front of the oven are due to the different

materials used, i.e. glass, plastic or metal.

• Any shady areas resembling grooves on the oven door glass are caused

by reections from the oven light.

• The enamel is branded at very high temperatures. This process may cause

colour variations. This is normal and will not affect appliance operation in

any way. The thin edges of the sheet metal cannot be entirely enamelled

and may therefore appear to be unnished. This will not affect the rust

protection.

• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals

may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water

and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the removal of stubborn

stains. After cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive

powders or corrosive substances.

• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned after each use, while it is

still lukewarm. Use hot water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with

a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

• All accessories - with the exception of the sliding racks - can be washed

like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.

• We recommend that detergents are not sprayed directly onto the control

panel, but that a sponge is used instead.

! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

Cleaning the oven door

Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive

cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough

abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface

and cause the glass to crack.

For more thorough cleaning purposes, the oven door may be removed:

1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram).

2. Use a screwdriver to lift up and turn the small levers F located on the two

hinges (see diagram).
