2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISPOSAL OUR ENVIRONMENTAL CARE

Our product's packing is made of non-polluting materials, therefore
compatible with the environment and recyclable. Please help by
disposing of the packing correctly. Find the addresses of collection,
recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent
local organisations.
Do not throw the packing or any part of it away. They can constitute a
suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.
Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.
Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for
the collection of household appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal
means intelligent recycling of valuable materials.
Before disposing of your old appliance remove the door and leave the
racks in their normal working positions so that children cannot get stuck
in the oven compartment whilst playing.
It is also necessary to cut the electric power cord and remove it along
with the plug.

INFORMATION FOR USERS

Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC
relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical
and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse. The
crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at
the end of its useful life, must be collected separately from other refuse.
Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached the end
of its working life to the appropriate selective collection centres for
electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when
purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. Adequate
selective collection for the subsequent forwarding of the
decommissioned product to recycling, treatment and ecologically
compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on
the environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the
materials of which the appliance consists. The illicit disposal of the
product by the user results in the application of administrative sanctions.

Instructions for the installer

3. OVEN INSTALLATION

The oven must be set up on a perfectly flat surface and left standing
free. Make sure to allow enough room at the back for easy access to the
terminal strip for connecting the power supply cable. Installation must be
carried out by a qualified technician in compliance with EEC
DIRECTIVES currently in force.

3.1 Electrical connection

Make sure the voltage and the cross-section of the power cord match the
specifications indicated on the identification plate positioned on the side of
the oven. Do not remove this plate for any reason.
The oven is fitted with an H07RN-F three-core cable for operation at
230V∼ and a power supply plug.

The supplied cable is of the three-core 3 x 1.5 mm2 H07RN-F type.
The power supply cable must be replaced by the manufacturer or by an
authorised service centre to prevent any risks.

The terminal marked with this symbol connects parts together that are
normally at zero potential. Connect the appliances appropriately using
this terminal in order to make sure that they are equipotential.

The plug and wall-mounted socket must be of the same type (in
accordance with current regulations). Also check that the power supply
line is provided with adequate earthing. Avoid use of adapters and
shunts.

3.1.1 Safety thermostat

The oven is fitted with a safety device which trips in case of serious
malfunction. To reset, contact the nearest technical assistance centre.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons
or things caused by the non-observance of the above prescriptions or
deriving from tampering with any part of the appliance.

Instructions for the installer

3.2 Levelling

Adjust the four feet so as to set the oven on a perfectly level plane. For
this purpose, loosen the lock nut and unscrew the foot. The range of
adjustment of the screw is 10 mm.

3.3 Steam exhaust pipe

An exhaust pipe is fitted on the back
of the oven to allow the discharge of
steam during cooking. Make sure the
pipe is not obstructed. Take care
not to crush it.
