IMPORTANT NOTES

Warning:

Accessible parts will become hot when in use. To avoid burns and scalds children should be kept away.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given initial supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Make sure young children are not allowed to play with the appliance.

Never use abrasive materials or substances to clean the GLASS, to prevent damaging it.

The unit gets very hot during use. Do not touch the heating elements in the oven.

This oven is designed solely for use as a household appliance for cooking food. Any other use is prohibited. The manufacturer declines all liability for damage caused by improper or incorrect use.

Any repairs or servicing must be carried out exclusively by a qualified technician.

Never expose the oven to atmospheric agents.

Do not put heavy objects on the doors because they could damage the oven cavities and hinges. Do not cling to the doors.

Never hang anything heavy on the oven door handles.

Do not cover the bottom of the ovens with aluminium foil or other objects.

The oven doors must close properly. The door seals must be kept clean.

Do not pour water directly into the inside of a hot oven. This could damage the enamel coating .

Fruit juice drippings from the baking tray may leave permanent stains. We recommend the ovens be cleaned before being used again.

Never drag pots and pans across the bottom of the ovens as this could scratch the coating.

Residual condensation from cooking could damage the ovens and surrounding kitchen units over time. We recommend that you:

-set the lowest temperature;

-cover food;

-do not store food in the oven;

-dry any wet parts when the oven is cool.

The front panel and the handle of the oven doors heat up when the appliance is switched on for a long time at high temperatures.

Keep children away from the following elements as they are sources of danger:

-The oven and its controls, especially when in operationandimmediatelyafterwardstoavoidinjury.

-Packaging (bags, polystyrene, metal parts, etc.).

-An oven to be scrapped.

Make sure that the electrical cables of other appliances used near the oven do not touch hot parts and are not trapped in the oven doors.

Some oven models are equipped with an air cooling system to prevent the front of the oven and cabinet cavity from reaching excessively high temperatures.

Attention: Steam and smoke are vented through two openings located between the control panel and the top oven door and between the two doors. Do not obstruct the vent openings.

Do not place inflammable material in the ovens or nearby: a fire may break out if the appliance is inadvertently switched on.

Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories, when the ovens are hot.

During cooking steam will form in the oven cavity. Please take special care when opening the door.

If alcoholic beverages are added when roasting or cooking cakes and sweets (for example, rum, cognac, wine, etc.) bear in mind that alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. Vapours released by the alcohol can catch fire upon coming into contact with the electric heating element.

Do not heat sealed containers in the ovens (except for packages specifically designed for this purpose; see the manufacturer's instructions). The pressure that develops inside the packaging might cause it to explode, damaging the appliance.

Do not use containers made of synthetic material for cooking (except for packages specifically designed for this purpose; see the manufacturer's instructions). They could melt at high temperatures.

Keep an eye on the oven if you are using a lot of fat or oil. Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire!

Never pull out fully loaded shelves. Use extreme caution.

BEFORE USING THE OVEN

Remove the accessories from the ovens and heat them 200°C for about an hour to eliminate the smell of the protective grease and insulating materials. Keep the kitchen window open during this operation.

Before using the oven, remove:

-Stickers on the front and oven doors, except for the rating plate;

-protective cardboard and protective plastic film from the front panel controls and other parts of the appliance;

-any sticky labels from the accessories (for example, under the drip tray).
