Precautions and tips
!
This appliance has been designed and manufactured
in compliance with international safety standards.
The following warnings are provided for safety
reasons and must be read carefully.
General safety
• The appliance was designed for domestic use
inside the home and is not intended for commercial
or industrial use.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave
the appliance exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with
wet or damp hands and feet.
•
The appliance must be used by adults only for
the preparation of food, in accordance with the
instructions outlined in this booklet. Any other
use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room)
constitutes improper use and is dangerous.
The manufacturer may not be held liable for
any damage resulting from improper, incorrect
and unreasonable use of the appliance.
• The instruction booklet accompanies a class 1
(insulated) or class 2 - subclass 1 (recessed
between 2 cupboards) appliance.
• Keep children away from the oven.
• Make sure that the power supply cables of other
electrical appliances do not come into contact with
the hot parts of the oven.
• The openings used for the ventilation and
dispersion of heat must never be covered.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware
in the oven or when removing it.
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol,
etc...) near the appliance while it is in use.
• Do not place flammable material in the lower
storage compartment or in the oven itself. If the
appliance is switched on accidentally, it could
catch fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the “
•
”
position when the appliance is not in use.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug
from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from the
electricity mains.
• If the appliance breaks down, under no
circumstances should you attempt to repair the
appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or further
malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact
Assistance.
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• Do not allow the cooker to be used unsupervised
by children or persons unfamiliar with it.
• The appliance should not be operated by people
(including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capacities, by inexperienced
individuals or by anyone who is not familiar with
the product. These individuals should, at the very
least, be supervised by someone who assumes
responsibility for their safety or receive
preliminary instructions relating to the operation of
the appliance.
Disposal
• When disposing of packaging material: observe
local legislation so that the packaging may be
reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
states that household appliances should not be
disposed of using the normal solid urban waste
cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected
separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using
and recycling the materials inside the machine,
while preventing potential damage to the
atmosphere and to public health. The crossed-out
dustbin is marked on all products to remind the
owner of their obligations regarding separated
waste collection. For more information relating to
the correct disposal of household appliances,
owners should contact their local authorities or
appliance dealer.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
• You can help to reduce the peak load of the
electricity supply network companies by using the
oven in the hours between late afternoon and the
early hours of the morning.
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the
GRILL mode. This will achieve better results while
saving energy (approximately 10%).
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them
clean to ensure they are free of debris so that
they adhere properly to the door, thus avoiding
heat dispersion.
