General recommendations

Before using the appliances

•To make the most of your new appliances read the users instructions carefully and keep them on hand for consultation in the future.

•Remove the cardboard protections and the protective plastic film.

•Remove the accessories from the oven and heat it at 200°C for about an hour to eliminate the smell of protective grease and insulating materials. Keep the window open during this procedure.

The fan may continue to run for the time necessary to ensure sufficient cooling of the components and adjacent kitchen units after the appliances have been switched off.

Protecting the environment

1. Packing

•The packaging material is

100% recyclable and it is marked with the recycle symbol .

2. Appliances

•The appliances are built from recyclable materials. If you decide to scrap the appliances please observe local waste disposal regulations. When you scrap them, cut off the power cords so that the appliances cannot be connected to the mains.

Declaration of conformity CE:

•These appliances are designed to come into contact with foodstuffs and they are constructed in compliance with Directive 89/109/EEC.

•They are designed solely for use as domestic cooking appliances. Any other use of the appliances (e.g. for room heating) is considered as improper use and potentially dangerous.

•These appliances are designed, built and sold in compliance with:

General recommendations

•Never stand or sit on the oven open door. Never hang any weight at the handle of the oven door when open.

•Use oven gloves to remove baking trays and accessories when the oven is hot.

•Do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium foil.

•Do not place inflammable material in the oven - risk of fire if the oven is inadvertently switched on.

Precautions and general recommendations

•Before any maintenance on the appliances disconnect them from the power supply.

•Keep children away from the oven when it is in use and when its has just been switched off.

•The oven must be repaired or adjusted only by a qualified technician.

•Make sure that the electrical wires of other electrical appliances near the oven do not come into contact with hot parts and do not become entrapped in the oven door.

•During the cooking process, water evaporates from food.

All ovens require this steam and other fumes to be vented from the oven cavity. For reasons of safety and aesthetics, we have determined that an opening at the bottom of the door is the optimum solution.

Consequently, vapour may be seen to be coming from this area on occasions (see picture).

•This is a normal occurrence and the bottom trim can be cleaned after removal of the door as described on “Cleaning the oven and its accessories”.

•Heavy weights must not be placed on the open door as this may result in damage to the cavity and hinges.

Max weight: 7 kg (15lbs).
