Warning and Safety instructions
This appliance complies with all rele
vant legal safety requirements. Im
proper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both per
sonal injury and material damage.
Before installation and before using
the appliance for the first time, read
the operating instructions carefully.
They contain important notes on the
safety, operation and care of the ap
pliance. This way you will avoid the
risk of accidents and damage to the
appliance.
Installation and connection
The appliance must be installed
and connected by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with local and national electrical and plumbing safety regulations.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by incorrect installation or connection.
The electrical safety of this appli
ance can only be guaranteed when
continuity is complete between the ap
pliance and an effective earthing sys
tem, which complies with local and na
tional safety regulations. It is most im
portant that this basic safety require
ment is tested by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held re
sponsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. elec
tric shock).

Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the ap
pliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
For safety reasons this appliance
must only be operated as a built-in
appliance. This is necessary to ensure
that all electrical components are
shielded.
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assessment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.
The appliance must be installed at
such a height that small children
cannot reach the appliance door which
gets very hot in use.
The top edge of the appliance door
should be at eye level. If it is too
high, you will find it difficult to safely ac
cess all levels when putting dishes into
the oven and taking them out, and there
is a danger of food spillages and possi
ble scalding.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not
be covered by the appliance guar
antee.

Warning and Safety instructions
Protecting the appliance from
damage
Do not use the appliance to heat
up food in tins. Pressure will build
up inside them and they will explode
causing damage to the appliance. Dan
ger of injury and scalding.
Do not leave cooked foods stand
ing for an unneccessary length of
time in the oven. This is to prevent con
densation building up which could
cause corrosion to the appliance.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaning appliance to clean
this appliance. Pressurised steam
could cause permanent damage to the
surface and to components, for which
the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility.
The appliance is designed to de-
tect and then self-correct certain
operational faults. If a fault is detected,
the fault messages F01 to F54 will appear in the display. The door of the ap
pliance can only be opened when the
fault message is flashing in the display.
If the fault message is not flashing, the
appliance is still processing the fault.
See section "Problem solving guide" for
further information.
On aluminium framed appliances
with a glass lift-up door, the frames
as well as the lift-up door handle are
made from aluminium which is suscep
tible to damage by abrasive, alkaline
and acidic cleaning agents. Do not use
-
a cleaning agent on these surfaces. It
is essential to follow the cleaning in
structions given in the section "Appli
ance front". Soiling should be wiped off
as soon as possible after using the ap
pliance. If the soiling is left for a long
time it can have a damaging effect on
the aluminium surfaces.

Warning and Safety instructions
Protection from injury and
burning
When in use the appliance be
comes hot and remains hot for
some time after being switched off. Be
careful when the oven door is hot, that
you only touch the door button and the
door handle. Keep children away.
Always use heat-resistant pot hold
ers or oven gloves when working
with a hot appliance. Do not let them
get damp or wet, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more
quickly with the risk of burning yourself.
On models which are not fitted in
combination with an oven, pull out
the shelf underneath the appliance before opening the door. You can place
hot containers on the shelf and it will
also collect any drops of hot water.
On no account attempt to force the
door open during a programme.
The door may only be opened when:
-
When putting dishes into the oven
or taking them out, take care not to
spill the contents. Do not come into
contact with hot steam. Danger of
scalding.
When cooking food which has a
tendency to boil over, e.g. soup,
casseroles etc, the cooking tempera
tures selected must not exceed 100 °C.
-
Otherwise there could be a danger of
scalding when the door is opened.
If bottling, do not exceed a cooking
temperature of 95 °C (90 °C where
the appliance is installed higher than
1000 m above sea level). Higher temperatures can cause the jars to crack.
Danger of injury.
-
- the cooling down phase is finished
- the audible tone has sounded
- the indicator light in the Stop touch
pad has gone out and
