YOUR SAFETY AND THAT OF OTHERS IS PARAMOUNT

This manual and the appliance itself provide important safety warnings, to be read and observed at all times.

All safety warnings give specific details of the potential risk present and indicate how to reduce risk of injury, damage and electric

shock resulting from improper use of the appliance. Carefully observe the following instructions:

- The appliance must be disconnected from the power supply before carrying out any installation work.

- Installation and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified technician, in compliance with the manufacturer’s

instructions and local safety regulations. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically stated in the

user manual.

- Regulations require that the appliance is earthed.

- The power cable must be long enough for connecting the appliance, once fitted in its housing, to the power supply

socket.

- For installation to comply with current safety regulations, an all-pole disconnect switch with minimum contact gap of

3 mm must be utilized.

- Do not use multiple plug adapters or extension leads.

- Do not pull the power supply cable in order to unplug the appliance.

- The electrical components must not be accessible to the user after installation.

- Do not touch the appliance with any wet part of the body and do not operate it when barefoot.

- This appliance is designed solely for use as a domestic appliance for cooking food. No other type of use is permitted

(e.g.: heating rooms). The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for inappropriate use or incorrect setting of the controls.

- The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with any physical, sensory or mental impairment, or

without experience and knowledge of the appliance, unless supervised or previously instructed in its use by those

responsible for their safety.

- The accessible parts of the appliance may become very hot during use. Young children should be kept away from the

appliance and supervised to ensure that they do not play with it.

- During and after use, do not touch the heating elements or interior surfaces of the appliance - risk of burns. Do not allow

the appliance to come into contact with cloths or other flammable materials until all the components have cooled

sufficiently.

- At the end of cooking, exercise caution when opening the appliance door, letting the hot air or steam exit gradually

before accessing the oven. When the appliance door is shut, hot air is vented from the aperture above the control panel.

Do not obstruct the vent apertures.

- Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories, taking care not to touch the heating elements.

- Do not place flammable materials in or near the appliance: a fire may break out if the appliance is inadvertently switched

on.

- Do not heat or cook sealed jars or containers in the appliance. The pressure that builds up inside might cause the jar to

explode, damaging the appliance.

- Do not use containers made of synthetic materials.

- Overheated oils and fats catch fire easily. Always remain vigilant when cooking foods rich in fat and oil.

- Never leave the appliance unattended during food drying.

- If alcoholic beverages are used when cooking foods (e.g. rum, cognac, wine), remember that alcohol evaporates at high

temperatures. As a result, there is a risk that vapours released by the alcohol may catch fire upon coming into contact with

the electrical heating element.

Scrapping of household appliances

- This appliance is manufactured with recyclable or reusable materials. Dispose of it in accordance with local waste disposal

regulations. Before scrapping, cut off the power supply cable.

- For further information on the treatment, recovery and recycling of household electrical appliances, contact your

competent local authority, the collection service for household waste or the store where you purchased the appliance.
