USE OF APPLIANCE

Before the First Use of the Oven

Before the first use ensure that the
room is well ventilated: V.M.C.
(Mechanic ventilation) or opened
window.
Remove all packaging, both inside and
outside the oven, before using the
oven.

Before first use, the oven should be heated
without food. During this time, an unpleasant
odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

1.  Remove the oven accessories.
2.  Remove any adhesive labels or protective

films, if there are any.

3.  Heat the oven at the maximum temperature

for about 45 min.

This procedure should be repeated with the grill
function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

Clean the accessories with a soft detergent.
Rinse and dry carefully.

Rating Plate

The model number of your cooker can be found
on the rating plate on the lower front frame of
the cooker upon opening the door.
The cooker must be protected by a suitably
rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the
cooker is given on the rating plate.

About condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the
same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents
allow some of this steam to escape. However,

always stand back from the oven when
opening the oven door

 to allow any build up of

steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool
surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it
will condense and produce water droplets. This
is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

Use any ovenproof cookware, which will
withstand temperatures of 250

°

C.

Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed
directly on the oven base.

During cooking in the oven the oven
door is hot. Take care that children do
not play near it.
