Safety
Cooker technology is constantly improving. The way you use your new cooker may be different from the way you used your old one. Please read the whole instruction book before using your new cooker. This cooker is intended for normal domestic use. Take care of the instruction book which will be needed by the new owner if the cooker is sold or passed on to someone else. Do not hesitate to contact us with questions or viewpoints about the cooker and its use.

Children and the cooker
Children are naturally curious and interested in most things, including the cooker. From a safety point of view, we would like to emphasis the following for those with children at home:
There should be worktops on both sides of the cooker extending at least 40 cm to left and to right. Alternatively the cooker can be installed with a wall or a tall kitchen unit on one side and a worktop on the other side.

Children should be allowed to help with cooking, but teach them that pans, hotplates and ovens become hot and retain their heat for some time after use.

When using the cooker
Never leave the cooker unattended while deep frying, or when using it for melting fats, paraffin wax or other flammable substances. In the event of a fire, turn off

all the controls and turn off the cooker hood fan.
SMOTHER THE FIRE WITH A PAN LID
On the hob, use only pans which are intended for use on hotplates. Use only ovenproof dishes and con­tainers in the oven.
Check that the cooker is switched off when not in use. All controls should be turned off.
Warning! Alcohol and other liquids that can form explosive gases, or other substances that could cause a fire or explosion, must not be used in the oven.
Great care must be taken when using such liquids and substances on the hob. For example, when preparing food on the hob with flaming brandy, or any other type of alcohol, there is always a risk that fat particles in the hob fan may catch fire with serious consequences. Flames and burning fat spills can also cause personal injury.

Cleaning
Keep the ceramic hob and oven clean. Fat and spill­ages give off smoke and odours when heated, and, at worst, can cause fires.
Maintenance and service
Turn all controls off before changing any bulbs.
Service and repairs should be carried out by a ser­vice company approved by the supplier. Use only spare parts supplied by such companies.
At the end of the cooker’s life
Help prevent accidents when the cooker has reached the end of its useful life. Make sure first that the lead is completely disconnected from the electrical supply (pull out the plug, or have the cooker safely discon­nected from the wall), then cut the electrical lead at the point where it enters the cooker. Make sure that the door catch/door catches have been deactivated.

Child safety is further improved if the following
equipment is fitted/in use:
Non-tip device
The non-tip device should be fitted, to prevent the cooker from tipping if subjected to an abnormal loading. The non-tip device can only provide pro­tection when the cooker is pushed into its normal position.
Before fitting the non-tip device, make sure the cooker has been levelled and adjusted to the correct plinth height (see “Installation” on p. 20).
1
Draw a line on the wall – after levelling the cooker – along the top edge of the hob (see illus­tration).
2
The measurements shown can be applied whether the non-tip device is fitted to the right side (see illustration). Measure and mark where the non-tip device is to be placed, then screw it onto a solid material or a suitable reinforcement or fixings.
NOTE
! If the space between kitchen units is wider than the cooker, you will need to alter the measurements shown in the illustration if the cooker is to be centred.
3
If you alter the measurements, remember to align the cooker correctly when pushing it into place, so that the non-tip device enters the hole on the cooker rear.

The door catch
The door catch makes it harder for children to open the oven door/storage drawer. The catches are already activated when the cooker is supplied new, but can be deactivated if necessary.
A
Press the catch down when you want to open the door.
B
If you wish to deactivate the catch, check first that the oven is not hot. Press the catch on the top edge of the door downwards and then a few millimetres to the right.
C
If you wish to activate the catch again, push the catch on the top edge of the door a few millimetres to the left.

Before the first use
Cleaning the cooker
Clean the cooker with a clean cloth, hot water and a little washing-up liquid straight after use.
ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCOURING AGENTS
cover can be washed in a dishwasher.
Remember that the non-tip device does not work when the cooker has been pulled forward to clean behind it.
Wash the accessories
Wash the baking tray, oven dish etc. in hot water and washing-up liquid. Rinse and dry.

The safety equipment
Heat the hotplates
When supplied, the hotplates have been pretreated with an anti-corrosion product which will provide bet­ter protection if the hotplates are heated without pans the first time.
Heat two hotplates at a time, turning their controls to full power, and leaving them on for no more than five minutes. Work diagonally: heat the left front and the right rear hotplates first, then the right front and the left rear. The hotplates will get very hot, so be extra mindful of the safety of anyone near the cooker during this procedure. Some smoke and fumes are to be expected as the remaining solvent evaporates. Do not heat the oven empty yet. Wait until you have finished with the hotplates.
Heat the oven empty
Children should be supervised! The cooker will get very hot.
max. 5 min.
Before you use the oven for the first time, you need to heat it empty. Follow these instructions:
1
Select (top/bottom heat) and maximum tem­perature. The oven door should be shut.
2
Ventilate the room. Switch off the oven once the “new” smell and fumes have ceased.
3
Use hot water and washing-up liquid to wipe the oven, side racks and the inside of the door. Then wipe all of these parts dry.

These are neon indicator lights, which normally have a long service life. If one should fail, contact your service centre.

Cooling fan
Your cooker is fitted with a cooling fan. The fan keeps down the temperature on the panel and controls.
The cooling fan starts automatically as soon as you use the cooker. The fan will be working all the time the hob and/or the oven are turned on. When all the con­trols are turned to zero, the fan stops automatically.
Cooling system
The controls and panel (1) are cooled by the fan. The door glass (2) is kept cool by the ventilation channels in the door and a heat-reflecting coating on the inside of the door. The heated air flows out under the panel (3) (but not the cooking smells from the oven which are extracted through the fan hood).
