Disposal instructions

2. DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS - OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY

Our products are only packaged using non-pollutant, environment-friendly, recyclable materials. We urge you to cooperate by disposing of the packaging properly. Contact your local dealer or the competent local organisations for the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal facilities. Never leave all or part of the packaging lying around. Packaging parts, and especially plastic bags, may represent a suffocation hazard for children.

Your old appliance must also be disposed of properly. Important: deliver the appliance to your local organisation authorised to collect scrapped appliances. Proper disposal allows the intelligent recovery of valuable materials.

Before scrapping your appliance it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside the oven during play. Also, cut the power supply lead and remove it and the plug.

5. BEFORE INSTALLATION

Never leave packaging residues unattended in the home. Separate waste packaging materials by type and consign them to the nearest separate disposal centre.

The inside of the appliance should be cleaned to remove all manufacturing residues. For further information about cleaning, see point "12. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE".

When the oven and grill are used for the first time, they should be heated to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant smells. After an electricity supply failure, for instructions for setting the time, see points "7. Electronic Analogue Clock (on some models only)" and "8. Electronic timer (on some models only)".
