Before using the appliance
Rating plate
This is usually situated on the front frame of
the appliance and can be seen upon opening
either the top or bottom door. Alternatively
the rating plate may also be found on the back
or top of some models (where applicable).
The appliance must be protected by a suitably
rated fuse or circuit breaker.
The rating of the appliance is given on the
rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the
appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.
Preparing to use your
appliance
Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft
cloth using hot soapy water. Wash the
furniture before use.
We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill
for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum temperature,
to burn off any residue from their surfaces.
Accessible parts may become hotter than in
normal use. Children should be kept away.
During this period an odour may be emitted,
it is therefore advisable to open a window for
ventilation.
The cooling fan for the
controls
The cooling fan comes on immediately when
the grill is switched on and after a short time
when the oven is in use. It runs on after the
controls are switched off until the appliance
has cooled. During the initial period the
cooling fan may turn on and off, this is quite
normal.
Warning! Always allow the cooling
fan to cool the appliance down before
switching off at the wall prior to
carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
Control panel indicator
neon(s)
The indicator neon will operate when the grill
(where applicable) or oven(s) is switched on.
The indicator neon will glow. It may turn on
and off during use to show that the setting is
being maintained. If the neon does not
operate as the instructions indicate the
controls have been incorrectly set. Return all
controls to zero and reset following the
instructions for the required setting.
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam
similar to a boiling kettle. The vents allow
some of this steam to escape. However,
always stand back from the appliance when
opening the door(s) 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 appliance, e.g. a
trim, it will condense and produce water
droplets. This is quite normal and is not
caused by a fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe
away condensation and foodstuff from
surfaces.
For your safety wall coverings at the rear of
the appliance should be securely fixed to the
wall.
