This appliance conforms with the following EU
Directives:

– 73/23/EEC dated 19.02.1973 Low Voltage Direc-

tive

– 89/336/EEC dated 03.05.1989 EMC Directive in-

clusive of Amending Directive 92/31/EEC

– 93/68/EEC dated 22.07.1993 CE Marking Directive

Electrical safety

• This appliance must be only connected by a regis-

tered electrician.

• 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 our Customer
Services or your dealer.

Child Safety

• Never leave children unsupervised when the appli-

ance 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.

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 or discoloration
of the enamel.

• 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.

3 Information on acrylamides

According to the latest scientific knowledge,
intensive browning of food, especially in prod­ucts containing starch, can constitute a health
risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we recom­mend cooking at the lowest possible tempera­tures and not browning foods too much.
