Fruit juice drippings from the baking tray may
leave permanent stains. We recommend the oven
be cleaned before reusing it.
Never drag pots and pans across the bottom of
the oven to prevent the coating from being
scratched.
Residual condensation after cooking could
damage the oven and surrounding kitchen units
in time. We recommend that you:
- set the lowest temperature;
- cover food;
- remove food from the oven;
- dry the wet parts when the oven is cool.
The front panel and the handle of the oven door
warm up when the appliance is switched on for
a long time at high temperatures.
Never touch the oven with any wet part of the
body and do not operate it with bare feet.
Do not pull the appliance or the power supply
cable to disconnect them from the electrical
supply.
Keep children away from the following
elements as they are sources of danger:
- the oven and its controls, especially when in
operation and immediately afterwards to
avoid injury.
- 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 door.
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:
an opening located between the control panel and
the oven door. Do not obstruct the vent opening.
Do n ot plac e infl ammab le mate rial in the ov en or

inadvertently switched on.
Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories,
when the oven is hot.
If alcoholic beverages are added when roasting
or cooking cakes and sweets (for example, rum,
cognac, wine, etc.) remember that alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures. It may happen
that vapours released by the alcohol can catch
fire when they are in contact with the electric
heating element.
Do not heat sealed containers in the oven
(except for packages specifically designed for
this purpose; see the manufacturers
instructions). The pressure that develops inside
the packaging might cause it to explode,
damaging the oven.
Do not use containers made of synthetic
material for cooking (except for packages
specifically designed for this purpose; see the
manufacturers 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

for the rating plate;
- cardboard protection and protective plastic
film from the front panel controls and other
