Important Safeguards for Daily Operation
• This appliance is for household use only and NOT intended for use in moving vehicles.
Do not operate or store the appliance in humid or wet areas or outdoors. Do not attempt to
operate the appliance using any parts or accessories not recommended by the manufacturer.
• Check the entire appliance regularly for proper operation–especially the power cord.
The pins of the power cord must be clean, smooth, and without discolouration. Do not
operate the appliance, when the appliance or any part of it is likely to be damaged, to
avoid risk of fire, electric shock or any other damage or injuries to persons. The appliance is
likely to be damaged if the appliance was subject to inadmissible strain (i.e. overheating,
mechanical or electric shock, moisture) or if there are any cracks, excessively frayed
parts, or distortions. In this case, immediately unplug the appliance and return the
entire appliance (including all parts and accessories) to an authorised service centre
for examination and repair.
• Food can catch fire, when overheated! During operation keep the appliance in an
appropriate distance of at least 20 cm on each side to furniture, walls, boards, curtains
and other objects. Do not operate the appliance near inflammable liquids (i.e. high-proof
alcohol) or beneath any heat-sensitive or moisture-sensitive materials or beneath boards
or drop-lights to avoid damage caused by steam, condensate or fire. Do not store any
items on top of the appliance when operating. Do not store any material, other than
manufacturer´s recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use. Before operating,
always ensure that there are no foreign objects in the Design Bistro Oven. Do not insert
wrapped foods (i.e. kitchen foil) or oversized food, to avoid risk of fire, electric shock, and

wrap, and the like. Immediately unplug the appliance, if there is any kind of malfunction or
problem (i.e. overheating or smoke is coming out of the Design Bistro Oven). Extreme

caution should be used, when using containers constructed of other than ceramics or glass.
• Do not cover crumb tray or any other parts of the oven with metal foil. This will cause
overheating of the oven.
• Do not clean with metal sourcing pads. Pieces can break off the pads and touch electrical
parts resulting in a risk of electrical shock.
• Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near young children. Do
not let young children play with any parts of the appliance. The appliance is not intended
for use by children or infirm persons without supervision. For storage always keep the
entire appliance dry and clean and where young children cannot reach it. Do not place
any hard and/or heavy objects on the appliance or on any parts of it.
• Operate the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, dry, and suitable large table
or counter. Do not place any cloth or tissue beneath or on the appliance, to avoid any
risk of fire, electric shock and overheating. Always keep the table or counter clean and
dry and immediately wipe off spilled liquids. Do not place the appliance near the edge
of the table or counter or on inclined or wet surfaces or where it can fall.
• Do not place the appliance or any parts of it on or near hot surfaces (heater, gas burner,
grill or oven).
• During operating, cakes, pastries or other food can fall to pieces and catch fire when
over-heated. Do not leave the appliance unattended, when connected to the power supply.
Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply, when the appliance is not in
use and before cleaning or moving. Always allow the appliance to cool down before
cleaning. Always grasp the appliance on its side handles for moving or lifting it.
• To stop toasting, turn toast browning control to OFF. To stop baking or broiling, turn
the timer to 0.
• Never use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or any hard and sharp objects (i.e. metal
scouring pads) for cleaning. Clean the Design Bistro Oven with a damped sponge or tissue
and carefully dry the exterior of the appliance after cleaning. Do not handle the appliance or
any part of it with violence. Never place the appliance in an automatic dishwasher.
• Do not immerse the Design Bistro Oven or power cord in water, or allow moisture to
come in contact with the appliance. Do not insert any foreign objects in the oven and do not
poke in the heating rod, to avoid risk of electric shock and damage of the heating elements.
If smoke comes out of the Design Bistro Oven, then immediately cancel the cooking process by
