The Safety Thermostat

This oven is provided with a safety thermostat. In case
of malfunctioning of the main thermostat, and
consequent over-heating, the safety device will stop the
power supply to the appliance. If this happens, call your
local Zanussi Service Centre. Under no circumstances
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

The Cooling Fan for the Controls

This oven is provided with a cooling fan, meant to keep the
front panel, the knobs and the oven door handle cool. This

Once the oven has been installed:
a) set the thermostat knob to MAX (250);

b) switch the oven function control knob to conventional

cooking ( );

c) allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45

minutes;

d) open a window for ventilation.

During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted.
This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of
manufacturing.
Repeat this operation for the grill and fan cooking function.
Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down,
then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water.
