Operating Instructions

1 Safety instructions

5 This appliance conforms with the following EU Directives:

–73/23/EEC dated 19.02.1973 Low Voltage Directive

–89/336/EEC dated 03.05.1989 EMC Directive inclusive of Amending Directive 92/31/EEC

–93/68/EEC dated 22.07.1993 CE Marking Directive

Electrical safety

•This appliance must be connected by a qualified electrician only.

•In the event of a fault or damage to the appliance: take the fuses out or switch off.

•Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by qualified service engineers. Considerable danger may result from improper repairs. If repairs become necessary, please contact your local Service Force Centre.

Child Safety

• Never leave children unsupervised when the appliance is in use.

Safety whilst Using

•This appliance is intended to be used for cooking, roasting and baking food in the home.

•Take care when connecting electric appliances to sockets nearby. Do not allow connecting leads to come into contact with or to catch beneath the hot oven door.

•Warning: Risk of burns! The interior of the oven becomes hot during use.

•Using ingredients containing alcohol in the oven may create an alcohol-air mixture that is easily ignited. In this case, open the door carefully. Do not have embers, sparks or naked flames in the vicinity when opening the door.

3 Information about acrylamides

According to the latest scientific research, intensive browning of food, especially in products containing starch, may present a health risk due to acrylamide. Therefore we recommend cooking at low temperatures and not browning foods too much.

How to avoid damage to the appliance

•Do not line the oven with aluminium foil and do not place baking trays, pots, etc. on the oven floor, as the heat that builds up will damage the oven enamel.

•Fruit juices dripping from the baking tray will leave stains, which you will not be able to remove. For very moist cakes, use a deep tray.

•Do not put any strain on the oven door when open.

•Never pour water directly into the oven when it is hot. This could cause damage to the enamel and discoloration.

•Rough handling, especially around the edges of the front panel, can cause the glass to break.

•Do not store any flammable materials inside the oven. These could ignite when the oven is switched on.

•Do not store any moist foods inside the oven. This could damage the oven enamel.

3 Note on enamel coating

Changes in the colour of the oven’s enamel coating as a result of use do not affect the appliance’s suitability for normal and correct use. They therefore do not constitute a defect in the sense of the warranty law.
