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.
• 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.

• Do not let children play with 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, DOUBLE GRILL and GRATIN modes: 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.
